MDCT: Stroke treatment question answered in CT of insula
WASHINGTON, DC - To treat or not to treat? Boston researchers are increasingly confident that they can predict treatment outcomes in patients with ischemic stroke of the middle cerebral artery by measuring infarct size in the insula at CT, according to a presentation at the International Symposium on Multidetector-Row CT.

MDCT: Radiologists should control radiation dose discussion
WASHINGTON, DC - For the past 10 years, the potential harms of medical radiation have often been overblown, scaring patients away from necessary scans. It's time to start talking about the benefits, according to the opening talk by Dr. U. Joseph Schoepf at the International Symposium on Multidetector-Row CT.

JACR: Proposed Medicare cuts threaten radiology training
Just as healthcare reform is increasing the need for new skills to be incorporated into graduate medical education curricula, Medicare budget cuts threaten to undercut the federal support that covers most of the cost of medical residencies, according to a new article in the Journal of the American College of Radiology.

Tips for avoiding reading-room 'radi-holidays'
It can be difficult to design curricula for medical students who pick radiology reading rooms as an elective. The passive nature and poor structure of many reading-room programs have earned some the nickname "radi-holidays," but that doesn't have to be the case, according to a new article in the Journal of the American College of Radiology.

JAMA Pediatrics: CT scans put children at higher cancer risk
A landmark study that tracked pediatric CT radiation doses in large health maintenance organizations across the U.S. found that the volume of CT scans nearly doubled between 1996 and 2005, and that the scans may put young patients at greater risk of future cancer, according to JAMA Pediatrics.

Women can start colon cancer screening later than men
Women can be screened for colorectal cancer five to 10 years later than men, according to an Italian study published on June 11 in Cancer. The different findings for men and women in more than 7,000 patients could eventually translate into different screening recommendations based on gender, the investigators wrote.

8-year study finds polyp surveillance safe
A large eight-year screening study suggests that 6- to 9-mm colorectal polyps do not grow rapidly enough in vivo to pose a significant danger of cancer and therefore don't need to be removed immediately, U.S. researchers reported on Friday at the 2013 European Society of Gastrointestinal and Abdominal Radiology meeting.

Obamacare's effect on radiology: Big, but gradual
Obamacare is expected to have far-reaching effects on radiology and the rest of the healthcare delivery system, but the changes for providers are expected to be gradual, as the traditional fee-for-service structure is retained at most facilities.

Contrast use spikes CT radiation dose
The use of contrast media during CT scans significantly increases how much radiation patients absorb in amounts that vary by organ, researchers report in the June edition of the American Journal of Roentgenology. Radiologists should account for the expected dose increases when setting scanner protocols, they said.
