'Filet view' VC software pares reading time
The latest version of a novel 3D virtual colonoscopy viewing method significantly shortened reading times compared to 2D in a new study, though sensitivity was unchanged from conventional methods, researchers from South Korea reported.

Coronary CTA aids some asymptomatic patients
Researchers in the Netherlands believe that a largely overlooked group of patients may benefit significantly from coronary CT angiography (CTA). These individuals have no symptoms of coronary artery disease, but are at high risk of succumbing to it.

Ground-glass lung nodules need extra scrutiny
Ground-glass opacities (GGOs) are different from solid nodules found at thoracic CT, and they need more frequent follow-up. Dr. Ella Kazerooni of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor recently reviewed the why and how of GGOs, a troublesome result of CT screening that radiologists are encountering more frequently as more smokers and former smokers are screened.

Whites prefer virtual colonoscopy; minorities like conventional
Blacks and other racial and ethnic minorities, who are already screened for colorectal cancer (CRC) in lower numbers and suffer its consequences more acutely than the U.S. population as a whole, don't seem too impressed with virtual colonoscopy, according to a new study by researchers from New York City.

MDCT's 'virtual Whipple' offers practice run before complex surgery
Among the nearly 30,000 cases of pancreatic cancer diagnosed each year in the U.S., an estimated 5% to 30% have tumors that are contained entirely within the head of the pancreas. This relatively fortunate subgroup has a better chance of surviving long term via the Whipple procedure. Radiologists at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston are hoping to boost the odds of surgical success with the virtual Whipple, a CT-based planning tool they've developed to give surgeons an idea of what they're going to find step-by-step during the Whipple procedure.

Coronary CTA much improved with newer scanners
A meta-analysis of cardiac CT angiography study results has concluded that more CT detector rows do in fact produce more-diagnostic exams with fewer nonassessable segments. Researchers from Belgium and the Netherlands zeroed in on 54 carefully reported papers documenting four-, 16-, and 64-slice studies, to conclude that CTA has improved markedly since four-slice CTA was introduced a decade ago.

ACR plans leading role in virtual colonoscopy education
A broad-based collaboration is under way between organizers of the International Symposium on Virtual Colonoscopy in Boston and the American College of Radiology (ACR) -- one that is expected to transform training, education, and certification for the rapidly developing imaging exam. The initiative is expected to include the ACR's assuming control of virtual colonoscopy's marquee conference in Boston from its current sponsor.

Significant VC findings found after incomplete colonoscopy
Among radiologists and gastroenterologists alike, VC follow-up after failed colonoscopy is often seen as the most obviously useful indication for virtual colonoscopy. A recent study showed that VC can reliably increase the diagnostic yield in portions of the colon not visualized during incomplete colonoscopy .

DBT plus mammo detects breast cancers with higher histologic grades

Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) plus synthesized mammography screening leads to higher detection of early-stage invasive breast cancers grades 2 or 3.
December 6, 2023
Imaging depicts a screen-detected invasive breast cancer in the dense breast tissue of a 59-year-old woman. A section in the mediolateral oblique view from a DBT exam of the left breast shows an irregular mass with surrounding architectural distortion (circle). The participant had no history of breast cancer and had been screened previously in the German mammography screening program. Histologic analysis showed invasive carcinoma of no special type, grade 2, with tumor size of 18 mm. Image courtesy of the RSNA.
