From femoral neck collars to fractures: finding the source of hip pain
Osteopenia is the key to separating acute hip fractures from other bone conditions that can seem remarkably similar in the emergency room. With the graying of the population, healthcare professionals will likely be seeing more of these confusing cases, according to a radiologist from the University of Rochester in New York.

D-dimer assay rules out PE, DVT in emergency triage
The D-dimer assay has enormous potential in critical care, where it can be used to determine who should undergo further imaging. The blood test’s greatest strength lies in its high negative predictive value for deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, according to Dr. Myer Roszler from Baptist Health Systems of South Florida in Miami.

Picking up on PE doesn’t pose too much of a problem for residents on-call
SAN FRANCISCO - Radiology residents who pull after-hours duty in the emergency department are obviously required to think fast and offer quick interpretations, but how good are they at making these decisions -- particularly when it comes to a life-threatening condition such as pulmonary emboli (PE)?
