The scheme was also found to reduce reading time and reveal changes in soft tissue, according to a presentation this week at the Society of Nuclear Medicine (SNM) meeting.June 4, 2006HomeAuntMinnie.com X-Ray InsiderJune 4, 2006Nuclear MedicinePET/CT has varied applications for oncologic imagingSAN DIEGO - PET/CT is a soup to nuts modality in oncology, offering useful clinical information before, during, and after treatment, according to a presentation Saturday at the Society of Nuclear Medicine (SNM) meeting.June 3, 2006MRIMRI characterizes myocardial tissue in all its statesThree MRI studies have taken a closer look at the myocardium in various conditions -- healthy, infarcted, and fatally injured. British investigators evaluated ranges for longitudinal spin-lattice relaxation time (T1) in healthy myocardium, while German radiologists compared turboFLASH to TrueFISP in myocardial infarction. And Japanese researchers illustrated how postmortem myocardial MRI and CT can guide autopsy, particularly when the cause of death is uncertain.June 1, 2006CTDigital x-ray unreliable for evaluating bone healingInadequate bone healing can adversely affect patient management, making it difficult for orthopedic surgeons to decide if immobilization will be necessary. While x-ray has traditionally been employed for assessing bone healing, its reliability is questionable, according to Austrian clinicians. In the latest issue of the American Journal of Roentgenology, they reported better success with multidetector-row CT (MDCT) for revealing nonunion in orthopedic patients.May 30, 2006MRIAuntMinnie.com MRI InsiderMay 29, 2006Molecular ImagingLesbians' neuro response to pheromones unlike straight women's -- and men'sBased on the results of a PET study, researchers from Sweden found that lesbians have very little in common with their own gender and only some similarities with heterosexual men when it comes to their response to sexual stimuli.May 29, 2006InterventionalUltrasonic curettage shaves bone at lower temperaturesAn ultrasound bone curette can safely remove cranial bone without causing heat-induced injury to the surrounding tissues. This device is most effective when combined with the "scratch and away method," according to Japanese neurosurgeons.May 24, 2006MRICost-effectiveness of screening breast MR varies by age in high-risk womenA woman's age and the accuracy of mammography are the two main factors that drive down the cost of breast cancer screening with MRI in a high-risk population, according to a new study in the Journal of the American Medical Association.May 22, 2006Previous PagePage 23 of 100Next PageTop StoriesDigital X-RayResearchers propose new method for measuring hip abnormalitiesThe method yielded more reproducible calculations compared with the traditional measurement method, according to a recent study.MRIHow multiparametric MRI can detect more prostate cancerAILLMs show improvement over a year on RSNA Case of the Day questionsWomens ImagingAlgorithms from RSNA's AI mammography challenge perform wellAISaMD-based AI is poised to 'transform clinical care'
