They shared their initial experiences of using AR to facilitate aortic aneurysm repair in a recent article in the Journal of Endovascular Therapy.August 28, 2019Clinical News3D models show osteoarthritis risk after knee surgeryA Scandinavian-led research group has developed a virtual 3D modeling technique that may provide a pathway to patient-specific clinical evaluation of osteoarthritis risks in those with anterior cruciate ligament tears and indicate optimal rehabilitation protocols.August 26, 2019Clinical NewsSwiss make clinical use of cinematic renderingThe highly detailed, photorealistic appearance of cinematic rendering reconstructions makes it ideal for teaching, according to a team of researchers from Zurich. They have used cinematic rendering to create images of head CT and conebeam CT scans, and have integrated them into the evaluation of maxillofacial anatomy and pathology.August 22, 2019Clinical NewsNeurosurgery gets boost from 3D-printed head modelAn Australian team has devised a 3D-printed head model that enables the realistic simulation of neurosurgical procedures. The technique is based on a combination of MRI and CT angiography scans, and it is described in an online report posted on 1 August by 3D Printing in Medicine.August 15, 2019Clinical NewsBiennial CT lung screening matches annual follow-up examsA new analysis of the Multicentric Italian Lung Detection trial has shown that biennial CT lung cancer screening was just as effective as annual screening in reducing the risk of lung cancer and all-cause mortality. The study was published in the September issue of the European Journal of Cancer.August 5, 2019Clinical NewsMost CCTA scans prove valuable for FFR-CT analysisNew European-led research suggests clinicians can use nearly all coronary CT angiography (CCTA) scans for fractional flow reserve CT (FFR-CT) analysis with simple adjustments to scanning protocols, such as minimizing slice thickness, controlling patient heart rate, and using dual-source or wide-coverage single-source CT units.July 29, 20193D PrintingAuntMinnieEurope.com Advanced Visualization InsiderJuly 2, 2019Clinical News3D-printed guides optimize pelvic tumor surgeryUsing 3D-printed surgical guides based on CT scans enabled researchers from Spain to improve the accuracy of, and potentially reduce operating times for, the surgical removal of pelvic tumors in a new study, presented at the recent Computer Assisted Radiology and Surgery 2019 congress in Rennes, France.July 2, 2019Clinical NewsCinematic rendering illuminates postmortem CTAResearchers from Belgium have used the highly photorealistic visualization provided by cinematic rendering technology to enhance their understanding of CT angiography (CTA) scans during postmortem analysis, according to an article recently published online in Diagnostic and Interventional Imaging.July 1, 2019Previous PagePage 4 of 14Next PageTop StoriesMRIUltrasound plus MRI helps diagnose pain from rotator cuff tendinopathyThe two modalities complement each other for this indication, according to a team of Turkish researchers.Medical, Legal, and PracticePressure grows for more rigorous financial disclosureMRIMRI, CT findings correlate for assessing epicardial fat volumeRadiology EducationESR survey put focus on radiology subspecializationWomens ImagingAlgorithms from AI mammography challenge perform well
