Patient kiosks deliver benefits to imaging centers
As imaging informatics tools steadily automate many functions of radiology departments and imaging centers, patient kiosks could become a front-office fixture. Hospital admissions and other departments have been early adopters, but radiology facilities are also starting to use kiosks to their workflow and financial advantage.

Kids learn breathing technique for better chest CT exams
An ideal pediatric chest CT exam uses low radiation dose to acquire high-quality images devoid of respiratory motion artifacts. This is easier said than done for a variety of reasons, but pediatric radiologists at a children's hospital in Ohio have figured out how to do it -- and without sedation.

Hypofractionated stereotactic RT ups survival for glioma patients
When brain cancer recurs after initial treatment, patients know they face near-term death. But those who receive hypofractionated stereotactic radiation therapy (RT) to treat recurrent high-grade gliomas have expected survival of almost a year, on average, Philadelphia researchers report.

Mayo Clinic patients with fatal thyroid cancer beat odds
An aggressive treatment combining intensity-modulated radiation therapy with chemotherapy has increased survival in patients diagnosed with anaplastic thyroid cancer. Most patients treated at the Mayo Clinic are living one to two years after treatment, versus the median outcome of death in five months.

Risk model predicts which kids may need orbital CT
Children admitted to emergency departments with acute periorbital swelling can be a challenge to diagnose. Specialists from Children's Hospital Boston used its hospital database of electronic medical records to create a risk model to try to give pediatric radiologists a better handle on when CT should or should not be used.

PACS: A culprit in radiology commoditization?
PACS and teleradiology services have proliferated in hospitals throughout the industrialized world because they can provide rapid, efficient access to images at any time and, in theory, anywhere in the world. But has the adoption of PACS also led to the commoditization of radiology?
