MR fingerprinting returns -- and hopefully disappears again
By Dr. Peter Rinck, PhD
Some cardiologists have scientific shortcomings in imaging science, the Maverinck believes. The experiments, methods, and results described went out of date years ago; even dressed in "new clothes" they are inadequate and deficient in precision and accuracy, he writes. Radiologists have their own new clothes: MR fingerprinting.

CT reveals cardioembolic stroke that echo misses
By Eric Barnes
Echocardiography may be the de facto gold standard for cardiac evaluation of patients suspected of having cardioembolic stroke, but it isn't necessarily the best modality. A new study from Saudi Arabia used CT to discover several thrombi that echo had missed, along with other conditions.
