Ridley[email protected]Body Imaging3D models enable custom treatment of complex acetabular fracturesVirtual 3D models created from CT data can be utilized for surgical planning and providing patient-specific treatments for complex acetabular fractures, according to recent research.February 21, 2021Clinical NewsReport: U.K. lung screening study is catching cancers earlyInitial results from a CT lung cancer screening study sponsored by the U.K. National Health Service (NHS) show that low-dose CT exams could detect 70% of lung cancers at stage I or II, according to a report in the Guardian.February 16, 2021Artificial IntelligenceDeep learning provides boost for detection of aortic valve calciumResearchers have found that their artificial intelligence model was highly accurate for automatically detecting and quantifying aortic valve calcium on cardiac CT, outperforming radiologist assessments in severe cases.February 9, 2021Artificial IntelligenceAI algorithm can boost breast cancer risk assessmentAn international team of researchers has developed Mirai, an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm that can estimate a woman's risk of breast cancer across multiple future time points based on analysis of her mammogram and clinical risk factors.January 31, 2021Clinical NewsMRI gives boost to evaluation of myocarditisResearchers from a top London facility have reported that a free-breathing, 3D whole-heart T2 MRI mapping sequence can quantify myocardial T2 times in patients with suspected myocarditis. The technique might even detect more cases of cardiac inflammation than standard 2D T2 maps, they said.January 25, 2021Clinical NewsHybrid imaging gives boost to ovarian biopsiesInvestigators from the University of Cambridge in the U.K. have used a targeted, ultrasound-guided tissue biopsy method that superimposed CT images with tumor habitat maps onto ultrasound images in patients with high-grade serous ovarian cancer.January 12, 2021Image ProcessingLung CT scans help predict COVID-19 mortality riskInvestigators have found that volumetric analysis of lung consolidation on chest CT scans can be used to forecast the risk of COVID-19 patients dying in the hospital and aid in management decisions. They published their results online on 6 January in European Journal of Radiology Open.January 11, 2021Clinical NewsUltralow-dose CT proves viable for 3D printingNew research suggests that CT images acquired at ultralow radiation doses can be used to produce high-quality 3D-printed models of wrist fractures. The study findings were published online on 23 December in the European Journal of Radiology.January 5, 2021Artificial IntelligenceGrenier gives verdict on clinical impact of AIArtificial intelligence (AI) is improving radiology workflow by helping to shorten reading time, detect unexpected findings, provide measurements, and enable triage of abnormal examinations, according to Dr. Philippe Grenier, a past ECR president and consultant chest radiologist at Foch Hospital in Suresnes, France.December 9, 2020Artificial IntelligenceAuntMinnieEurope.com Artificial Intelligence InsiderDecember 6, 2020Previous PagePage 8 of 58Next PageTop StoriesCTAssessing CT image quality: Which method is best?Dutch researchers have evaluated established and new techniques for assessing CT image quality and created a decision tree as a guide for method selection.CTCT pearls from Ireland’s top orthopedic hospitalMolecular ImagingSPECT/CT identifies prostate cancer patients with poor outcomesUltrasoundMore ultrasound cuts risks in pregnancies with less fetal movementDigital X-RayGerman team aims to cut radiation dose in IR
