But as dose drops, image noise grows. Fortunately, researchers are refining image processing techniques that can improve image quality while driving CT dose down to the level of a chest x-ray.August 17, 2016Clinical NewsNew neural network outperforms CAD for mammographyA convolutional neural network trained on a large dataset of mammographic lesions outperformed a conventional mammography computer-aided detection (CAD) scheme, according to a new Dutch study published this month. These networks can be fine-tuned based on radiologists' knowledge.August 15, 2016Musculoskeletal RadiologyMRI scanners running nonstop at Olympic polyclinicThe Olympic polyclinic inside Rio de Janeiro's Olympic Village -- and especially the imaging suite -- has become wildly popular with athletes and their entourages during the 2016 games, according to an August 11 story in USA Today.August 11, 2016Clinical NewsAuntMinnieEurope.com Cardiac Imaging InsiderJuly 24, 2016Clinical NewsMR alternative: CT shows value in cardiomyopathyCT now has an important role in most kinds of cardiomyopathies, owing to its strength in morphological assessment and its ability to visualize calcium and coronary artery disease, according to a presentation at the International Symposium on Computed Tomography.July 24, 2016Clinical NewsFFR-CT makes the grade in clinical practiceUsing fractional flow reserve CT (FFR-CT) to assess the severity of coronary disease at CT angiography offers powerful advantages in daily clinical practice, but to use it optimally, practitioners must create a place for the noninvasive procedure in their practices and know when to stay away, according to a Dutch expert.July 24, 2016Clinical NewsCT myocardial perfusion imaging evolvesAs researchers gain experience with CT myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI), they're finding MPI remains harder to read than fractional flow reserve CT. But CT MPI still has a lot going for it, including its potential to reduce catheterizations in patients with suspected coronary artery disease.July 20, 2016Previous PagePage 7 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.
