Prenuptial planning eases pain of PACS divorce
ORLANDO, FL - If a vendor-client PACS relationship is analogous to a marriage between two partners, then the breakup of that relationship can be as devastating as a divorce. However, proper prenuptial PACS planning by a facility can ease the transition to a new IT partner, according to a presentation Saturday morning at the Society for Computer Applications in Radiology (SCAR) annual meeting.

Image Processing
Automated image alignment ramps up report throughput
ORLANDO, FL - An important component of tracking disease progression is the comparison of patient images from older studies with their latest images, especially in CT, MR, and PET exams. Image matching is time-consuming work, however, and poor alignment can lead to uncertainty and error on the part of the interpreting radiologist, according to a presentation this morning at the Society for Computer Applications in Radiology (SCAR).

Inpatient imaging not driving higher hospital costs
Although diagnostic imaging has lately become a whipping boy for rising healthcare costs in the U.S., a study from Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) in Boston contends that the cost of imaging technology in a hospital inpatient setting rose at roughly the same rate as other healthcare items.

PDAs show promise for RIS/PACS portability
The personal digital assistant (PDA) has become a ubiquitous part of modern professional life. From its humble beginnings as an address book and day planner, the device has blossomed into a multifunctional tool capable of voice and video recording, photo capture and storage, and data transmission and telephony. And PDAs are fast becoming the latest addition to RIS/PACS hardware.

Active thyroid surveillance effective, beneficial for older patients
A 58-year-old woman was diagnosed with ER-positive (Allred score 8) ILC in her right breast. Ultrasound and MRI found prominent lymph nodes in right axillary level I area, diagnosed as metastasis on ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration. F-18 FES-PET/CT showed a positive mass in right breast (white arrow; SUVmax, 5.6) and multiple F-18 FES–positive lymph nodes in right axillary level I, II, and II/III junction areas (red arrows; SUVmax, up to 12.2). In addition, a small F-18 FES-positive lymph node was observed in the right second internal mammary area (red circles; SUVmax, 1.8). However, biopsy could not be performed because it was too small and not visible on ultrasound; the clinician decided to include internal mammary lymph node in treatment field for adjuvant radiotherapy. The patient underwent lumpectomy with ALN dissection, with five metastases being identified in 13 lymph nodes dissected, and is scheduled to receive adjuvant chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and endocrine therapy.

Full-field digital screening mammograms in participants recalled by the consensus discussion after being flagged by artificial intelligence (AI) computer-aided detection (CAD) but not by either of the two radiologists. (A) Mammogram with AI CAD score of 73 for a 55-year-old woman diagnosed with grade 3 in situ cancer and T1 (9-mm) invasive cancer in the left breast and lymph node metastasis. (B) Mammogram with AI CAD score of 54 for a 49-year-old woman diagnosed with grade 2 in situ cancer and T1 (6-mm) invasive cancer in the right breast and without lymph node metastasis.
