Eric Barnes[email protected]CTCT screening study tracks reader agreement in nodule follow-upA study based on National Lung Screening Trial data found that agreement between readers on nodule growth and screening results at follow-up was acceptable, but it could be better, according to researchers from the University of Alabama and several other U.S. centers.February 13, 2011CTVC reading is faster with 'panoramic view' softwareVirtual colonoscopy studies can be read nearly twice as fast using an advanced panoramic view technique compared to conventional 3D endoscopic views, according to researchers at the Medical University of Vienna.February 10, 2011CTAuntMinnie.com Virtual Colonoscopy InsiderFebruary 9, 2011CTThird scan series key to successful VC in some patientsNearly 10% of patients screened with virtual colonoscopy require a third scan position known as decubitus positioning in addition to prone and supine, according to a new study of more than 5,000 screening subjects.February 8, 2011CT320-row coronary CTA accurate in atrial fibrillation patientsCT with a 320-detector-row scanner holds several advantages for CT angiography (CTA) of patients with atrial fibrillation and suspected coronary artery disease, concludes a study published online in European Radiology.February 7, 2011CTDutch VC training analysis shows what worksHow many virtual colonoscopy cases does a trainee have to read before becoming proficient? On average, 164, say Dutch researchers who took a stab at the enduring question in the February issue of Radiology.February 3, 2011CTDECT for myocardial perfusion does more for less than SPECTA study published online February 1 in the European Journal of Radiology found that dual-energy (DE) coronary CT angiography (CTA) outperformed SPECT for assessing myocardial perfusion in patients with suspected coronary artery disease.February 1, 2011CTCT iterative reconstruction cuts radiation dose to eye lensResearchers from Japan have found they can significantly reduce radiation exposure to the eye lens during sinus MDCT scans using an iterative reconstruction method. The technique could reduce damage such as cataracts to this radiosensitive organ.January 27, 2011CTStudy touts novel solution to low colonoscopy complianceSAN FRANCISCO - Colorectal cancer screening compliance doubles when primary care physicians do their own patients' colonoscopies -- under expert supervision. What's more, exam quality is "outstanding," said an internal medicine physician describing what he called a "radical" colorectal cancer screening solution.January 24, 2011MRI3D MRI stress perfusion accurate for myocardium evaluationNew research from Germany shows how cardiac MRI can assess myocardial function by combining cine imaging, stress perfusion, and scar imaging to produce a high percentage of correct diagnoses and high-quality images, according to results published January 25 in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.January 24, 2011Previous PagePage 108 of 258Next PageTop StoriesInterventionalLung biopsy before surgery linked to cancer recurrenceThe findings confirm concerns about “tumor cell spillage” during the procedure.CTAbnormal CT-FFR results translate to up to 7 years of cardiovascular riskMolecular ImagingPSMA-PET/CT reporting varies widely in the U.S.Womens ImagingAuditing preop MRIs is feasible under upcoming BI-RADS recommendationsSponsor ContentRegister Now: Breaking Barriers in Breast Imaging Webinar
