Semiautomated analysis of the cine MR images could potentially be used to guide patient management.February 7, 2017Clinical NewsAuntMinnieEurope.com Cardiac Imaging InsiderJanuary 15, 2017Clinical NewsDual-energy CT can replace MRI in myocardial sarcoidosisDual-energy cardiac CT can readily distinguish cardiac sarcoidosis from other kinds of cardiac hypertrophy, eliminating the need for cardiac MRI, according to researchers from southeastern Paris.January 15, 2017Clinical NewsAuntMinnieEurope.com Advanced Visualization InsiderJanuary 11, 2017Advanced VisualizationDeep learning boosts CT colonography outcomesA new kind of electronic-cleansing algorithm can deliver reduced-prep CT colonography (CTC) to routine clinical practice, according to results from a multinational team of researchers. The group's technique for CTC outperformed two conventional methods, producing far fewer artifacts.January 10, 2017Clinical NewsMachine learning improves FFR-CT for coronary ischemiaIn results that could potentially shake up the heart imaging status quo, a machine learning algorithm slightly outperformed a more traditional algorithm in analyzing fractional flow reserve CT (FFR-CT) studies for detecting signs of ischemic coronary lesions, according to a presentation at the recent RSNA 2016 meeting in Chicago.January 2, 2017Clinical NewsVancouver lung cancer predictor works in NLSTA Canadian model for predicting lung cancer risk based on nodule and patient characteristics distinguished benign from malignant lung nodules in patients in the National Lung Screening Trial (NLST), according to a study presented at RSNA 2016. A second study in the same session, however, found that radiologists slightly outperformed the model.December 25, 2016Clinical News4 steps to high-quality 3D printing for radiology3D printing has skyrocketed in popularity in recent years with the advent of low-cost consumer-grade printers. And 3D printing's growth in healthcare is helping to boost radiology's reputation as an essential service and the first step in creating highly useful models for surgery, implantation, and education.December 15, 2016Clinical NewsAuntMinnieEurope.com Cardiac Imaging InsiderDecember 7, 2016Clinical NewsFFR-CT cuts time, costs in patients with chest painBelgian researchers said they have achieved remarkable reductions in costs, radiation dose, and -- most important -- negative angiography studies by implementing fractional flow reserve CT (FFR-CT) to manage the care of patients with chest pain who have an intermediate risk of coronary disease.December 7, 2016Previous PagePage 4 of 59Next PageTop StoriesWomens ImagingNew data cements AI's role in breast screeningAI continues to show significant clinical promise as a second reader for breast cancer screening, a new Dutch study shows.
