Screening is best reserved for those expected to live longer
Patients signing up for breast or colon cancer screening should have a minimum remaining life expectancy of at least 10 years to boost the chances of benefiting from the exams and overcoming their inherent risks, say researchers from the University of California, San Francisco in an article in BMJ.

Low-dose CT raises coronary calcium scores; IR corrects them
Low-dose coronary artery calcium (CAC) scores are reliable if iterative reconstruction (IR) is applied to the CT data, according to research presented at RSNA 2012. Dutch researchers found that the technology ensures the accuracy of CAC scores that would otherwise be higher and less predictable than the results of higher-dose CT scans.

MBIR finds same nodules as ASIR, at fraction of dose
Second-generation iterative reconstruction software doesn't necessarily improve radiologists' ability to detect lung nodules compared to earlier versions. But the new software permits the same lesion detection power at greatly reduced CT radiation doses, according to a study presented at last month's RSNA 2012 meeting in Chicago.

Study: CCTA technique skips the breath-hold
Patients undergoing coronary CT angiography (CCTA) no longer have to hold their breath when doing so is challenging for them. CCTA images acquired on a 320-detector-row scanner using a free-breathing technique are similar to the traditional breath-hold images.
