Open-source software increases colon polyp conspicuity
By Eric Barnes
Visibility of colon polyps is increased and sensitivity improved with the use of threshold-based color-coding software in virtual colonoscopy, according to a new study from Italy. Even flat lesions were more often visible with use of the open-source 2D-based interpretation software.

CTA motion model aims to improve cardiac function analysis
By Eric Barnes
Dutch researchers used an automated coronary artery motion model to analyze cardiac function from electrocardiogram-gated coronary CT angiography (CTA) data. The method promises to improve cardiac function analysis and reconstruction interval selection, and even provide new information on coronary artery motion at different heart rates.

MR stress alone sufficient for myocardial perfusion
By Eric Barnes
Use of an automated postprocessing tool eliminates the need for both a stress and rest exam in myocardial perfusion MRI, according to researchers from Germany. They found that quantitative assessment of stress MRI images alone delivers the same diagnostic performance as semiquantitative evaluation of both stress and rest perfusion exams.
