CT finds high-risk plaque with nanoparticle contrast
A new animal study by researchers in the U.S. and France brings intriguing new possibilities to CT with its use of a nanoparticulate contrast agent administered before scanning to detect unstable atherosclerotic plaques. The group aims to someday detect human plaques at the greatest risk of rupture while there is time to prevent it.

Optimized barium, easier prep improve VC experience
Some see virtual colonoscopy combined with a gentler bowel prep as an important way to get patients to undergo colon cancer screening. And unlike conventional colonoscopy, VC is in a position to make things easier for the patient. Studies are experimenting with gentler regimens that produce less discomfort and mark the residual stool. Recently, researchers tried to find the optimal formula for reduced-prep VC.

Reconstruction kernel dramatically affects stent evaluation
VIENNA - If the results of a phantom study are valid in patients, the choice of reconstruction kernel with 64-slice CT has a critical impact on coronary artery stent evaluations. And as Dr. Florian Wolf explained at today's cardiac imaging sessions at the European Congress of Radiology (ECR), the evaluation of stents for detecting restenosis is critical for patient outcomes.

German screening trial finds high accuracy for VC
Results from the first 300 patients screened in the ongoing Munich Colorectal Cancer Prevention Trial indicate that virtual colonoscopy with 64-slice CT is sensitive and specific for the detection of polyps of all sizes. The researchers in Germany found that conventional colonoscopy had a slight edge in diminutive polyps, but virtual colonoscopy did a little better with the larger lesions.

CT, MRI show successful vocal cord restoration
A new vocal cord restoration technique injects the body's own fat into damaged vocal cords to restore damaged voice quality. Imaging with CT and MRI show that vocal function not only improves after the procedure, but endures over follow-up periods of at least four years.

Swedes want to perform VC, but many lack equipment, training
Less than a quarter of Sweden's radiology departments perform virtual colonoscopy, but not for lack of interest in the procedure, a new study finds. Rather, the lack of multidetector CT scanners and training opportunities were the top reasons for not performing VC.

Colon CAD: VC's extra eyes face new challenges
Prototype colon CAD systems are proliferating, and thanks to years of painstaking development work they're doing a pretty good job, outperforming all but the best radiologists in the detection of colonic lesions. VC CAD expert Dr. Hiro Yoshida from Harvard Medical School in Boston discusses the major innovations that have produced today's complex CAD systems, and the moving target CAD developers face in keeping up with new performance standards.

An overview of all radiation oncology target volume delineations on axial imaging. Each row represents the benchmarking cases: FET-PET11 case 1 (a), FET-PET1 case 2 (b), and FET-PET1 case 3 (c). Shown here are standard gross tumor volume MRI (GTVMR, red), clinical target volume MRI (CTVMR, green), planning target volume MRI (PTVMR, orange), and hybrid GTVMR+FET (blue), CTVMR+FET (purple), PTVMR+FET (yellow). For comparison, GTVMR and GTVMR+FET are shown together with contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging, T2/FLAIR, and FET-PET. All images are co-registered to each case; respective planning CT where TVMR and TVMR+FET are displayed separately. Figure courtesy of Nathaniel Barry et al and presented at RANZCR ASM 2023.
