Michael Asghar[email protected]Molecular ImagingMultidirectional spectroscopy enables human neuroimagingResearchers have used a multidirectional functional near-infrared spectroscopy system for human neuroimaging. Their novel approach produces a richer dataset and could improve 3D visualization of brain activity.April 17, 2019Clinical NewsFunctional MRI assists in somatosensory cortexResearchers from the U.K. and Germany have used ultrahigh-field functional MRI to produce a precise topographic map of the representation of touch in area 3b of the somatosensory cortex -- a region thought to only respond to mechanical stimulation.January 31, 2018Clinical NewsFunctional MRI sheds new light on sound and touchResearchers in the U.S. and the Netherlands have observed auditory responses in the human somatosensory cortex, a region of the brain usually dedicated to processing touch. They measured functional MRI signal changes following a frequency discrimination task.November 9, 2017Page 1 of 1Top StoriesWomens ImagingMammography AI approach finds more breast cancers, reduces workloadAn AI approach that excludes low-risk mammograms from radiologist reading led to more cancers being found.Imaging InformaticsMaking data speak the same language: Harmonization and health dataUltrasoundTraining, standards needed for radiographers to perform POCUSDigital X-RayRadiographer judgment still essential in AI-assisted x-rayAIResearchers optimistic on healthcare AI privacy risk fixes
