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.

VC CAD aids experts in detecting intermediate polyps
By
Eric Barnes
Computer-aided detection (CAD) can improve the performance of experienced radiologists in detecting intermediate-sized (6- to 9-mm) polyps, but it doesn't help find larger lesions, said researchers from Italy in results presented at the RSNA meeting earlier this month.

Lesion size and morphology at VC good predictors of histology
By
Eric Barnes
Size and morphology are good predictors of whether a colorectal lesion harbors advanced histology and needs to be removed, according to a new multicenter study from Italy. The results suggest that polyps of the same size detected at virtual colonoscopy could be classified and managed differently based on their morphology.

CAD catches most flat polyps on virtual colonoscopy
By
Eric Barnes
Computer-aided detection (CAD) is sensitive for all but the flattest of flat colorectal lesions, even in minimally prepped patients, according to a new study from Italy. Using CAD, radiologists significantly improved their ability to detect the elusive polyps, which can harbor precancerous lesions.

By
Erik L. Ridley
CHICAGO - Computer-aided detection (CAD) software may not produce significant improvement in detecting suspicious lesions on chest radiographs, but it's not necessarily the technology's fault, according to research presented Wednesday at the 2009 RSNA meeting in Chicago.

Surveillance polyps show little growth at follow-up
By
Eric Barnes
CHICAGO - A preliminary study from Italy adds weight to the argument that two- to three-year surveillance of 6- to 9-mm polyps doesn't unduly increase the risk of colorectal cancers. Diminutive polyps grow faster but present less cause for concern.
