HR-pQCT helpful in osteogenesis imperfecta patients at risk of severe fracture
Sunday, November 27 | 11:45 a.m.-11:55 a.m. | SSA14-07 | Room E451BHigh-resolution peripheral quantitative CT (HR-pQCT) is compared to dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) in patients with osteogenesis imperfecta in this presentation by Austrian researchers. They found that CT does a better job than conventional DEXA bone mineral density scans of characterizing bone structure and the risk of fracture.

CT perfusion inadequate to detect basilar artery occlusion
Sunday, November 27 | 11:25 a.m.-11:35 a.m. | SSA16-05 | Room N226CT perfusion imaging of the brain is often used in acute stroke centers to aid in diagnosing and characterizing acute stroke. But it doesn't work as well in the brainstem: A new study has found that CT perfusion alone is inadequate to detect basilar artery occlusion.

CCTA outpaces calcium scoring in acute chest pain
Sunday, November 27 | 10:45 a.m.-10: 55 a.m. | SSA02-01 | Room S502ABThere is little value in coronary artery calcium scoring by itself in patients presenting with acute chest pain. In a head-to-head comparison, it's clear that only coronary CTA (CCTA) can replace angiography in diagnosing these patients, according to researchers from Italy.

MRI links long-COVID brain fog to lung function
By Will Morton
MRI shows that lower pulmonary gas exchange in the lungs of long-COVID patients may be associated with cognitive symptoms.
November 26, 2024
Individuals in the study were plotted with the x-axis being rank of pulmonary gas exchange. The black dots show the pulmonary gas exchange ratio (red blood cell to tissue plasma ratio, RBC:mem) on the left y-axis and the blue dots are the cognition scores on the right y-axis. Gas exchange maps of three representative patients from a low, medium, and high pulmonary gas exchange. Image courtesy of RSNA.
