Ridley[email protected]CT'Patch view' may improve efficiency of VC CAD viewingCHICAGO - A new method for viewing virtual colonoscopy computer-aided detection (CAD) results may be more efficient than traditional sequential browsing of CAD hits, according to a pilot study presented at the 2007 RSNA meeting.November 28, 2007PACS/VNACommunicating abnormal findings to clinicians may not ensure follow-upCHICAGO - Directly communicating abnormal findings and follow-up recommendations to clinicians does not guarantee they will always follow through with additional imaging studies, according to research presented Wednesday at the 2007 RSNA meeting.November 27, 2007PACS/VNAConsumer displays compare well with medical-grade displaysCHICAGO - While medical-grade displays offer a longer life span and superior consistency over time, the growing capabilities and significantly lower cost of consumer displays may offer a more compelling PACS display alternative, according to research presented at the 2007 RSNA meeting.November 26, 2007UltrasoundRadiologists retain dominance of emergency US, x-ray examsCHICAGO - Despite recent attempts by emergency medicine physicians to secure a major role for their specialty in emergency department ultrasound and x-ray studies, radiologists still retain overwhelming control over the exams, according to a presentation Monday at the 2007 RSNA meeting.November 25, 2007CTCAD may boost radiologists' ability to characterize lung nodulesCHICAGO - Computer-aided detection (CAD) technology offers promise for improving radiologists' performance in assessing the likelihood of lung nodule malignancy, according to researchers from the University of Michigan Medical School in Ann Arbor. The team presented its findings Sunday at this week's RSNA 2007 meeting.November 24, 2007MRICEUS performs well with cystic pancreatic massesContrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) compares favorably with MRI in displaying anatomic features of cystic pancreatic masses, according to research published in the December issue of the American Journal of Roentgenology. A team from the University of Verona in Italy and New York University Medical Center in New York City compared unenhanced sonography, contrast-enhanced sonography, and MRI in displaying the anatomic features of cystic pancreatic masses greater than 1.5 mm in diameter.November 22, 2007CTComputer-aided program can help match metastatic lung nodulesA computer-aided matching program can yield a high rate for matching metastatic pulmonary nodules on clinical series CT scans, provided that lung findings and lung expansion between the serial scans are relatively unchanged, according to a team from the Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology in St. Louis.November 15, 2007PACS/VNAEmpiric Systems(Booth 5738) Empiric Systems will introduce its Encompass.NET 5.0 RIS/PACS at RSNA 2007.November 7, 2007ISMerge Healthcare(Booth 1122) Merge Healthcare will highlight several new products in its booth this year at McCormick Place.November 7, 2007PACS/VNAScImage(Booth 2551) ScImage will again focus on its PicomOnline hosted data center service.November 6, 2007Previous PagePage 282 of 388Next PageTop StoriesCTSCCT: Study explores diagnostic accuracy of CCTACoronary CT angiography (CCTA) showed high concordance with invasive coronary angiography.CTSCCT: AI predicts coronary artery calcium scores from chest x-raysCTSCCT: CCTA model shows plaque volume changes in chest pain patientsCTVideo: Incoming SCCT president discusses CT's environmental impactSponsor ContentWhen CT meets the power of AI everyone benefits.
