Study questions predictive value of standard short-term follow-up for breast imaging
Dr. Shagufta Yasmeen from the University of California, Davis and colleagues looked at 2,957 mammograms for which a short-interval follow-up was recommended. Their concern was that "early recall for follow-up testing on screening mammography causes anxiety, psychological morbidity, and increased healthcare utilization in the year after a false-positive mammogram is reported."

MRI offers comprehensive approach to assessing myocarditis
Accurate assessment is key in myocarditis. If underestimated, it can become a chronic disease with dilated cardiomyopathy, or even mimic the appearance of acute myocardial infarction. European researchers are working with MRI to determine if it is the ultimate modality for diagnosing this disease.

Dynamic MR enteroclysis negotiates twists, turns of small bowel disease
Overlapping or collapsed bowel loops are a common problem in gastrointestinal imaging, one that can impede the accurate diagosis of small bowel disease. Several groups of radiologists in Europe and the U.S. relied on MR enteroclysis as an alternative method of examining the small bowel.
