New software creates personalized 'virtual brain' models

Researchers from Belgium have created virtual models of the brain individually tailored to patients' functional MR images, according to an article published online on 28 May in eNeuro. These models can predict the effects of brain tumors and may help improve surgical planning for their removal.

3D printing guides kidney transplant for 2-year-old boy

A team of clinicians from the U.K. has created multimaterial 3D-printed anatomical models based on CT scans of the kidney and abdomen. They used the models to plan and guide the transplantation of an adult kidney into a 2-year-old boy.

Postmortem CTA can help clarify cause of death

Postmortem CT is finding favor as an alternative to conventional autopsy alone. But Swiss researchers have added a new wrinkle -- postmortem CT angiography (CTA) -- which they found useful in detecting bone and vascular lesions during virtual autopsies, according to research published online on May 1 in Radiology.

How can cinematic rendering expand its role in medicine?

Cinematic rendering has been drawing attention for its amazingly lifelike images of complex anatomy. But what will it take to move past the "wow" factor and integrate cinematic rendering into routine clinical use? Experts on the topic shared their insight in a British Institute of Radiology podcast.

Does organ-specific CT dose reduction really reduce dose?

Researchers from Belgium are questioning whether organ-based tube-current modulation in CT chest studies of women really reduces radiation dose. They found that while radiation dose to the breast fell, it increased in other areas, according to a study published on March 27 in Radiology.
