Breast MRI tops DBT-ABVS for cancer staging
By Kate Madden Yee
Tuesday, November 27 | 3:30 p.m.-3:40 p.m. | SSJ02-04 | Room E353CBreast MRI performs better for breast cancer treatment staging than the combination of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) and ultrasound automated breast volume scanning (ABVS) -- but the latter works well enough to offer patients an alternative if MRI isn't available, Italian researchers have found.

MRI shows how extended space travel affects the brain
By Wayne Forrest
Recovering from weightlessness might be the least of the problems that astronauts face when they return home to Earth. MRI scans revealed a loss of gray-matter volume in the brain soon after touchdown and prolonged changes in circulation of cerebrospinal fluid some seven months later, according to a study published in the October 25 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine.
