Workshop aims to answer mystery of gadolinium deposition
By Wayne Forrest
U.S. and international researchers with expertise in gadolinium retention and gadolinium-based contrast agents plan to release a road map for exploring the reasons why increased signal intensity is being seen in patients years after they receive an MRI contrast agent.

Can AI help in the fight against gadolinium deposition?
By Erik L. Ridley
What if gadolinium-based contrast agents could be used at just 10% of current dose levels without significantly degrading image quality or contrast enhancement? Artificial intelligence (AI) could make that possible, according to research published online February 13 in the Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

Study finds scanner noise from 3T MRI can affect hearing
By Wayne Forrest
Even with ear protection, increased acoustic noise from a 3-tesla MRI scan can cause a temporary reduction in a patient's ability to hear. But the good news is there are no long-lasting adverse effects, according to a study published in the February issue of Radiology.
