Dear AuntMinnieEurope MRI Insider,
Higher field strengths and AI-driven reconstruction have promised a new era of clarity in MRI. But do sharper images translate to better care -- and at what cost? In this edition of our MRI Insider, we're highlighting an article that features a variety of experts weighing in on the topic. Click here for the full story.
Since our last MRI Insider, we've reported on research presented at the European Association of Urology (EAU) congress regarding MRI as an important part of prostate cancer screening, as well as a Finnish study that found that using deep-learning with MRI led to gains in productivity and cost-effectiveness -- with overall high image quality.
Check out our ECR MRI coverage, which included an article about new guidelines for follow-up MRI for rectal cancer tracking; a video with Titti Owman, research coordinator at Lund University Hospital in Sweden and chair of the International Society for MR Radiographers and Technologists (ISMRT) Safety Committee, during which she discussed MRI safety; and a story on advanced MRI biomarkers for multiple sclerosis.
Finally, don't miss our reports on an MRI safety course held by the Swedish Alliance for MR Safety (SAMS) and a Finnish safety investigation regarding an MRI scan that resulted in a patient's death.
It's a pleasure to offer AuntMinnieEurope.com readers up-to-date reporting on MRI's many benefits, and we invite you to visit our MRI content area regularly.
