Erik L. Ridley[email protected]PACS/VNAMedXT leverages consumer IT for cloud-based RIS/PACSA number of imaging pundits over the years have wistfully wondered why advances in consumer-oriented information technologies aren't applied more broadly to imaging informatics. San Francisco start-up MedXT hopes to bridge that technology gap with its cloud-based RIS/PACS software.July 20, 2014Practice ManagementLessons from the Boston Marathon; doctor bonuses don't improve screening; MRI safetyJuly 14, 2014UltrasoundUltrasound visualizes odor perception in brainA neurofunctional ultrasound method can provide in vivo visualization of odor perception in the brain, shedding light on the functioning of the olfactory system, researchers from France reported in an article published in NeuroImage.July 14, 2014CTGet to know referring physicians to meet their imaging needsIf you're a radiologist, you know that referring clinicians are your customers, and it's important to keep them happy. What do your referring physicians really want from their radiology reports and interactions with the radiology department? Just ask them, according to researchers from Duke University.July 13, 2014UltrasoundUSPSTF still against US carotid artery stenosis screeningThe U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) has finalized its draft recommendation advising against the use of widespread ultrasound screening for asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis as a tool for stroke prevention.July 7, 2014PACS/VNAAutomated algorithms help spot change in serial CT examsMost PACS vendors don't include automatic deformable image registration algorithms in their workstation software. But they should, as these can sharply reduce the time it takes for radiologists to match lung nodule locations on serial lung CT scans, according to researchers from Stony Brook Medicine.July 6, 2014UltrasoundUltrasound screening catches embolism in cancer patientsUltrasound screening of cancer patients judged to be at high risk for venous thromboembolism can identify a significant number of deep vein thrombosis cases, according to research from the University of Rochester Medical Center.July 2, 2014Advanced VisualizationAuntMinnie.com Advanced Visualization InsiderJuly 1, 2014UltrasoundAuntMinnie.com Ultrasound InsiderJune 29, 2014Advanced VisualizationNew volume-based criteria from NIH predict cancer survivalTumor assessment criteria that account for both tumor density and volume more accurately reflect tumor burden, and they may improve treatment monitoring by predicting outcomes earlier than methods that rely only on tumor density, according to research from the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH).June 24, 2014Previous PagePage 167 of 389Next PageTop StoriesMRIMRI may help guide brachial plexus surgeryMRI-based volumetric analysis of paraspinal muscles can distinguish the severity of traumatic brachial plexus injury.AIShould hospitals pursue local domain LLM adaptation for radiology reports?Womens ImagingMRI model predicts breast tumor shrinkage patternsMRICheck for middle neck involvement for nasopharyngeal cancer prognosisMolecular ImagingPET links brain receptor to emotional numbing in PTSD
