Opinion: Why we need consensus on breast density
February 22, 2019 -- Greater awareness among patients of their breast cancer risk may improve compliance toward breast screening, and it should be a top priority for all radiologists to develop and introduce guidelines that can give women with dense breasts the best clinical outcome available, according to Dr. Francesca Caumo from Padua, Italy.

Discuss Oslo study finds favor with synthesized 2D mammography
February 22, 2019 -- A research team led by Dr. Per Skaane, PhD, of the University of Oslo found that using synthesized 2D mammography with digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) was the best combination for breast screening, beating more traditional techniques such as digital mammography alone or with DBT, according to results published on 19 February in Radiology.

Discuss High mammography recall rates show diminishing returns
February 19, 2019 -- A new analysis of more than 11 million breast screening exams from the English National Health Service program has shown that increases in recall rates above defined levels are nearly always associated with false-positive recalls and a very small increase in detection of low/intermediate-grade ductal carcinoma in situ.

Discuss AI predicts ovarian cancer survival on CT scans
February 15, 2019 -- Researchers from the U.K. and Australia have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm capable of predicting the survival rate of patients with ovarian cancer by analyzing their contrast-enhanced CT scans, according to an article published online on 15 February in Nature Communications.

Discuss Dual detector combines nuclear and fluoroscopic imaging
February 15, 2019 -- Dutch researchers have demonstrated the feasibility of using a flat-panel x-ray detector combined with a gamma camera to allow simultaneous acquisition of fluoroscopic and nuclear images. The instrument could provide clinicians with anatomical information not currently available using nuclear imaging alone.
