They have highlighted examples in four core areas in an article published online on 21 October by Interactive Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery.October 28, 2019Clinical NewsAuntMinnieEurope.com Advanced Visualization InsiderOctober 2, 2019Clinical NewsVR, 3D printing aid acetabular fracture classificationVirtual reality (VR) and 3D-printed models have demonstrated a potential to improve physicians' ability to classify acetabular fractures for surgery. Dutch researchers explored which of the two techniques was more effective to that end in a new study, published online in the European Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery & Traumatology.October 2, 2019Clinical News3D printing can bolster cardiac managementPatient-specific 3D-printed heart models based on cardiac MRI and CT scans are dimensionally accurate and also offer clinical value in the management of congenital heart disease, according to a new analysis published online by the Journal of Clinical Medicine.September 30, 2019Image ProcessingSoftware choice can dictate lung screening recall ratesThe choice of volumetry software used to measure nodules on CT lung cancer screening examinations may have a substantial impact on the recall rate for follow-up examinations, according to a new study from the U.K. The authors have emphasized the need to validate the software to deliver effective screening.September 25, 2019Clinical NewsVolumetry software affects CT lung screening recall ratesUsing different types of volumetry software to measure nodules on CT lung cancer screening exams can drastically alter the recall rate for follow-up exams, underscoring the need to validate the software to ensure effective screening, according to an article recently published online in the European Journal of Radiology.September 19, 2019Clinical NewsBlood test can give boost to CT lung screeningNew evidence from the U.K. suggests a blood test and imaging-based lung screening exam offers a better lung cancer detection rate than standard clinical care. The findings were presented on 9 September at the World Conference on Lung Cancer in Barcelona, Spain.September 10, 2019Clinical NewsMobile ambulances give boost to stroke therapyGerman investigators have provided new evidence that mobile stroke ambulances fitted with CT can greatly improve the accuracy and efficiency of determining which patients require surgical treatment, compared with standard clinical decision-making. They published their results online on 3 September in JAMA Neurology.September 3, 2019Clinical NewsSwiss shed light on bullets in gunshot injuriesResearchers from Zurich have reported that dual-energy CT can differentiate between various types of bullets in gunshot wounds based on their core material. The findings may have major implications for the future of forensic imaging.September 1, 2019Clinical NewsNovel contrast-free MRI technique measures heart strainA team of investigators from the U.K. has used 3D MRI to work out a patient's cardiac muscle strain. They have described how their method can boost the accuracy of quantifying cardiac health without the need for gadolinium contrast in an article published online on 28 August by Scientific Reports.August 29, 2019Previous PagePage 3 of 14Next PageTop StoriesMRILow sexual desire manifests as dimorphic brain processing on fMRIMen and women with hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) show dimorphic brain processing on functional MRI, researchers from a top London facility have reported.Emergency RadiologyJAMA: Radiology among least affected services in Ukraine warEnterprise ImagingAgfa secures agreement with Dublin hospitalCTUse CCTA to track vasculopathy risk in heart transplant patientsSponsor ContentJourney to the Cloud: A Snapshot of Market Progress - 22 May @ 7pm CET
