They shared their findings in a presentation on 21 June at the Computer Assisted Radiology and Surgery 2018 international congress in Berlin.June 21, 2018Clinical News3D-printed brain tumors facilitate patient consultationDutch researchers have created 3D-printed brain tumors based on functional MRI (fMRI) scans. Referring to these models during consultation can improve patient understanding and shared decision-making, according to an article published online on 2 June in World Neurosurgery.June 21, 2018Clinical NewsNew 3D CT technique tops x-ray for diagnosing arthritisResearchers from the U.K. have developed an algorithm capable of detecting subtle changes in the spacing between arthritic joints on 3D-reconstructed CT scans better than even standard x-ray imaging can, according to an article published online on June 18 in Scientific Reports.June 18, 2018Artificial IntelligenceAI can detect, assess white-matter lesions on CT scansResearchers from the U.K. have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm capable of accurately detecting and rating the severity of brain lesions on CT scans of patients presenting with stroke or dementia, according to an article published on 15 May in Radiology.May 31, 2018Artificial IntelligenceAugmented reality, AI algorithms bolster liver surgeryResearchers from Germany have developed artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms that can generate a 3D liver model from MRI or CT scans. They examined these 3D models to plan liver cancer surgery and also projected them onto the patient intraoperatively using augmented reality software.May 30, 2018Previous PagePage 11 of 14Next PageTop StoriesRadiology EducationNordic survey pinpoints motivators and obstacles in researchWhat factors inspire radiologists to engage in research?
