But researchers from the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, tamed the beast with a web-based protocol management system.October 31, 2016CTAre CT reports transferred with trauma patients unreliable?Sunday, November 27 | 10:45 a.m.-10:55 a.m. | SSA06-01 | Room N226Radiologists from a level I trauma center wondered if the CT reports they were getting for patients transferred to their emergency department were accurate. Their six-month investigation didn't deliver much confidence in the original reads.October 31, 2016CTRoad to RSNA 2016: CT PreviewAt RSNA 2016, CT will mark another year of progress in grabbing useful information from anatomy scanned at ever-lower radiation doses. Spectral imaging, iodine imaging, k-edge imaging, photon-counting CT, iterative reconstruction, and other quantitative imaging techniques are on display in this year's sessions, offering new ways to see data hidden inside images.October 31, 2016CTRadiation affects brain similarly to Alzheimer's, study findsLow doses of ionizing radiation induced molecular changes in the brains of mice that resemble the pathologies of Alzheimer's disease, according to research published online in the journal Oncotarget.October 30, 2016Ultrasound3D-printed transducer focuses ultrasound wavesResearchers have found a way to control high-pressure ultrasound to manipulate, move, or destroy structures noninvasively by using 3D-printed laser-generated focused ultrasound transducers, according to a new report in Applied Physics Letters.October 25, 2016Advanced VisualizationDubai hospitals to implement 3D printing before surgeryHospitals in Dubai will begin 3D printing organs before surgery beginning in 2017, with the goal of improving the accuracy of all kinds of surgeries, according to a report in Gulf News.October 17, 2016CTCoronary CTA beats stress test for changing lifestylesIndividuals who underwent a coronary CT angiography (CCTA) exam were more motivated to adopt a healthy lifestyle than those who received an exercise echocardiography stress test, according to new research from the University of California, Los Angeles.October 16, 2016Advanced VisualizationCenter refines 3D printing to build 'replacement parts'The good news is that humans are living longer. The bad news is that our bodies are wearing out as we age, creating the need for replacement parts that are customized to individual patients. A center in Arizona is doing just that, developing 3D printing techniques to keep people healthy and active into their old age.October 12, 2016Advanced VisualizationAuntMinnie.com Advanced Visualization InsiderOctober 9, 2016CTHead CT algorithm a step toward faster stroke careUsing automated software to interpret head CT scans could someday slash the time emergency doctors need to start clot-busting treatments in cases of suspected ischemic stroke, according to a method proposed in a SPIE Newsroom technical article.October 5, 2016Previous PagePage 13 of 258Next PageTop StoriesBreastDBT performance improves with patient ageDBT led to higher cancer detection rates and lower abnormal interpretation rates in older women in a study over 93,000 women.Digital X-RayAI fails to compensate for night-shift fatigue among residentsPractice ManagementTrainee-led informed consent talks with patients often insufficientCTHigh CAC scores nearly doubles 30-year mortality in young adultsSponsor ContentFREE webinar: find your imaging capacity
