Software adds diagnostic value for heart disease patients
Dutch researchers have developed 3D visualization software that fuses anatomical and functional data into a single image. They believe the fused images make it easier to diagnose cases of coronary artery disease, according to a paper in the January issue of the Journal of Nuclear Medicine.

PET/MRI offers details in acute myocardial infarction cases
German researchers have concluded that simultaneous PET/MRI for patients with acute myocardial infarction is feasible after finding "good concordance" in a comparison of PET and MR images. The study was presented at the RSNA 2013 meeting earlier this month.

Study links gadolinium MR contrast to brain abnormalities
Japanese researchers have found a connection between gadolinium-based MRI contrast and abnormalities in two regions of the brain, which could represent a reaction to gadolinium's toxicity, according to a study published online December 17 in Radiology.
