Computer-modeled throughput management cuts CT access time
Dutch researchers have used computerized modeling to reduce access time for CT scans, while carving out more time for urgent scans. Their study shows how more patients can be scheduled and examined by managing access to imaging equipment -- without additional capital outlays or staff.

Polish researchers offer new spin on coronary CT angiography
How accurate is coronary CT angiography (CCTA) compared to invasive quantitative coronary angiography (QCA)? Results for the two modalities correlate fairly well for most lesions, but for stenosis measurement, quantitative CTCA of the stenosis area correlates more closely with QCA compared to diameter stenosis measurement.

Mobile CT saves precious minutes in stroke care
German researchers have shaved more than a half hour off the normal time it takes to respond to urgent calls for stroke care by equipping an ambulance with a CT scanner and other communication equipment, which sends patients' vital information to the hospital before the patient arrives.

Evidence gathers behind new CT reconstruction method
An investigational raw-data-based iterative reconstruction scheme is getting high marks for image quality and dose reduction. Several research groups compared the reconstruction technique with standard filtered back-projection reconstructed images and found higher-quality images at around half the dose.

MR enterography compares favorably to endoscopy, histology
MR enterography is both sensitive and specific for the detection of Crohn's disease compared to both endoscopy and histology, and should be used in place of other methods in young patients when it's feasible to do so, according to a study in the European Journal of Radiology.

CT colonography delivers in laparoscopy planning
Italian researchers are adding a new indication for CT colonography after finding that it outperformed conventional colonoscopy for planning laparoscopic surgery in patients with colorectal cancer or complicated diverticular disease. They presented their results at the recent European Congress of Radiology.
