Abraham Kim[email protected]Clinical NewsNew software creates personalized 'virtual brain' modelsResearchers 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.May 29, 2018Clinical News3D printing guides kidney transplant for 2-year-old boyA 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.May 27, 2018Clinical NewsPostmortem CTA can help clarify cause of deathPostmortem 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.May 8, 2018Clinical NewsAuntMinnieEurope.com Advanced Visualization InsiderMay 2, 2018Clinical NewsHow 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.May 2, 2018Clinical News3D printing compares to MRI for planning ACL repairMeasuring 3D-printed knees may be just as effective as the standard technique of measuring multiplanar reconstruction knee MRI scans in determining ideal graft length for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, new research from Italy has found.May 2, 2018Clinical NewsDoes 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.April 4, 20183D PrintingAuntMinnieEurope.com Advanced Visualization InsiderMarch 12, 2018Clinical News3D printing can identify device size for LAA occlusionDetermining the best occluder device size necessary to properly seal the left atrial appendage (LAA) before implanting the device may be feasible with the assistance of 3D printing, according to two separate presentations at ECR 2018 in Vienna.March 12, 20183D PrintingHybrid 3D printing reduces chest tumor surgery timesResearchers from Spain have created 3D-printed lung cancer models based on a combination of CT scans and MR images. They explained how to make these hybrid models and also described the advantages of using them to guide tumor removal in an ECR 2018 poster presentation that won a cum laude award.March 11, 2018Previous PagePage 12 of 14Next PageTop StoriesRadiology EducationNordic survey pinpoints motivators and obstacles in researchWhat factors inspire radiologists to engage in research?
