Erik L. Ridley[email protected]PACS/VNAFostering radiologist-clinician relationships in the age of PACSAlthough PACS has yielded substantial benefits, it has also significantly altered the radiologist-clinician relationship. Without the built-in daily interaction required in the pre-PACS world, radiologists now need to cultivate these relationships proactively, according to California researchers.January 17, 2011PACS/VNAiPad may be best suited for nondiagnostic roleApple's iPad shows significant potential for a number of radiology applications, but primary interpretation of medical images probably isn't one of them, at least for the current generation of the tablet computer, according to researchers from the University of Maryland in Baltimore.January 16, 2011PACS/VNASurvey traces radiologist interest in tabletsWhile radiologists appear to be increasingly adopting wireless tablet devices, the ability to view images on these devices still seems to be in the early phases of implementation at most organizations, according to a recent survey from market research firm IMV Medical Information Division.January 13, 2011Advanced VisualizationAuntMinnie.com Advanced Visualization InsiderJanuary 11, 2011CTCT with ASIR enhances CAD performance for pulmonary nodulesAdaptive statistical iterative reconstruction (ASIR) technology can not only reduce CT radiation dose and improve image quality, it can also improve the sensitivity of computer-aided detection (CAD) software for detecting pulmonary nodules, according to researchers from Japan.January 11, 2011MRIBreast MR CAD enhances radiologist performanceBreast MR computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) software can bolster radiologist performance in differentiating between malignant and benign lesions, according to research published online in Radiology.January 10, 2011CTCAD may boost CT detection of pulmonary embolismComputer-aided detection (CAD) technology shows promise for helping radiologists diagnose pulmonary embolism on CT pulmonary angiography exams, according to research from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor.January 10, 2011Digital X-RayCAD may drive chest DR screening for tuberculosisA prototype computer-aided detection (CAD) algorithm for tuberculosis (TB) developed by Dutch researchers performed well in a pilot study, offering hope that the software could enable the use of chest digital radiography (DR) to screen for TB in areas with a high burden of the disease but not many skilled readers.January 4, 2011PACS/VNAPortable media survey raises compliance concernsA survey of more than 100 academic and nonacademic radiology departments in the U.S. on their use of portable media discovered key problems related to access, importability, and viewing issues, according to research published in the January issue of the Journal of the American College of Radiology.January 3, 2011PACS/VNADell makes bid for archiving firm InSite OneIn a move to expand its portfolio of medical imaging storage capabilities, computer giant Dell has announced an agreement to purchase archiving services provider InSite One of Wallingford, CT.
