Blood infection risk extremely low with VC
The risk of bloodstream infections such as bacteremia leading to endocarditis is extremely low in virtual colonoscopy -- in fact, infection rates are probably even lower than in conventional colonoscopy, say researchers from Ireland, the U.K., and the U.S.

Heart rate key to image quality in low-dose coronary CTA
Heart rate control is an important factor for success in prospectively gated coronary CT angiography (CTA). But once patients are beta-blocked, the success rate is high and the doses are uniformly low, according to a new study by Swiss researchers.

Diverticular disease favors prone over supine VC images
Diverticular disease, an unfortunate result of low-fiber Western diets that increases in incidence with age to burden most of the elderly population, has a friend in virtual colonoscopy. That's because VC generally provides an easier colon exam for both patient and provider than conventional colonoscopy.

Organ-based tube-current modulation cuts breast dose
VIENNA - Radiation doses to the breast can be cut by nearly 40% using a new organ-based dose modulation technique in combination with a noise-optimized image reconstruction method. The two techniques must be used together if the resulting images are to remain readable, researchers reported.

Coronary CTA predicts long-term outcomes
VIENNA - A decade's worth of coronary CT angiography (CTA) studies is starting to reveal the modality's long-term predictive powers, if a study from one of Poland's largest heart centers is any indication.

High pitch equals low dose in coronary CT angiography
VIENNA - High-pitch dual-source CT exams can evaluate the coronary arteries using about a third of the dose of even prospectively triggered exams, according to a study presented in Thursday's cardiac sessions of the European Congress of Radiology.

320-row CT minimizes dose in pediatric abdominal studies
It's no secret that CT radiation dose levels in children -- especially in the emergency department, where patients are fidgety and physicians need fast answers -- are too high. One solution, investigated by researchers from Toronto and Berlin, is wide-area-detector scans with 320-detector-row CT.

CT blood-flow measurement gauges stenosis severity
64-detector-row CT has sufficient temporal resolution to measure blood flow through the heart, offering the promise of a new functional test based on CT alone, according to a proof-of-concept study by German researchers.
