MDCT: Hopes high for CTC screening reimbursement
SAN FRANCISCO - The talented but long-suffering colon cancer screening exam known as CT colonography (CTC) may finally be on the cusp of screening reimbursement, though nothing is certain, according to a Monday presentation at the annual International Symposium on Multidetector-Row CT (MDCT).

MDCT: 3 things to do to standardize CT radiation dose
SAN FRANCISCO - Even the largest and most unwieldy collection of CT scanners in a multisite institution can function as one by standardizing three simple components of their CT scanning protocols, according to a Sunday presentation at the annual International Symposium on Multidetector-Row CT (MDCT).

Adding contrast to CT doubles DNA damage from radiation
Patients who received contrast with their CT scans had more than twice as many double-strand breaks in their DNA from radiation exposure compared to those who had CT studies without contrast, concludes a new study in the June edition of Radiology. But whether this DNA damage translates into cancer risk is unclear.

New CAD app generates radiology reports
Researchers from Oregon have developed a novel computer-aided detection (CAD) application for radiology reports -- one that churns out differential diagnoses, accurately drawing correlations between imaging findings and potential disease states, according to a presentation at the Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine meeting.

SIIM 2015: Most want photos to avoid patient ID errors
NATIONAL HARBOR, MD - Embedding patient photos into medical images has already been shown to prevent misidentification. Now, a new survey shows that the idea has broad support, although some radiologists have concerns about the practice, according to research presented on Saturday at the Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine (SIIM) meeting.

Autosegmentation algorithm tackles array of brain tumors
A new algorithm for automatically segmenting image data delivers fast and reproducible volumes of a wide variety of tumors, satisfying a significant unmet need in neuro-oncology, according to a new study in Academic Radiology. A panel of readers gave the algorithm high marks for how well it approximated manual data segmentation methods.

Analysis: CT lung cancer screening won't break the bank
The costs of population-wide CT lung cancer screening are likely to be reasonable and comparable to the costs of breast or colon cancer screening, according to an article in the May edition of Thoracic Surgery Clinics.

Images of a 39-year-old who underwent screening mammography. Right craniocaudal (left) and mediolateral oblique (middle) views from preoperative mammography show suspicious grouped fine pleomorphic calcifications (arrows). After biopsy showed ductal carcinoma of situ (DCIS), patient underwent breast-conserving surgery, yielding final diagnosis of ductal carcinoma in situ (intermediate grade, hormone receptor positive). (Right) Screenshot of an output of a commercial AI tool applied to preoperative mammography. AI detected right breast lesion with score of 95% on both views (concentric colored circles). Present study’s reviewing radiologist deemed AI marking to correspond with site of DCIS.

Could AI scoring help with managing DCIS?
Axial contrast-enhanced CT scan in a 28-year-old premenopausal woman shows an incidentally detected solid-appearing left ovarian lesion (solid arrow) anterior to the uterus (U), associated with trace ascites in the right adnexa and cul de sac (dashed arrows). At pathologic analysis, this was shown to be ovarian dysgerminoma. Two readers misdiagnosed this lesion, one as a leiomyoma and one as an ovarian fibroma.
