Wayne Forrest[email protected]Nuclear MedicineImage Wisely targets nuclear medicine for dose reductionImage Wisely this week is expanding into nuclear medicine with its effort to educate physicians, healthcare practitioners, radiologists, and imaging technologists on the appropriate use of radiation in medical imaging procedures.November 19, 2012MRIRoad to RSNA 2012: MRI PreviewAt this year's RSNA conference, look for MRI to garner increasing attention as a viable modality in clinical applications where radiation exposure is a concern. In addition, radiologists are using MRI to discover previously hidden secrets in the brain for afflictions such as Alzheimer's disease, cognitive disorders, multiple sclerosis, and stroke.November 14, 2012MRIStudy shows MRE's benefits for pediatric Crohn's disease patientsWednesday, November 28 | 3:30 p.m.-3:40 p.m. | SSM17-04 | Room S102ABMR enterography (MRE) achieves high lesion detectability in pediatric patients with Crohn's disease, researchers from South Korea will report in this scientific session.November 14, 2012MRIDWI-MRI proves beneficial for peritoneal metastasis detectionWednesday, November 28 | 11:50 a.m.-12:00 p.m. | SSK13-09 | Room S505ABDiffusion-weighted MRI (DWI-MRI) enhances the diagnostic performance of conventional MRI in peritoneal metastasis detection and is comparable to FDG-PET/CT in this clinical application, according to researchers from Hong Kong.November 14, 2012MRIMRI reveals possible complications after ACL reconstructionWednesday, November 28 | 11:50 a.m.-12:00 p.m. | SSK10-09 | Room E451AMR images can provide indications of graft complications in patients following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, according to this study from Egypt.November 14, 2012MRIMultiparametric MRI, MR-guided biopsy top TRUS in prostate cancerWednesday, November 28 | 11:40 a.m.-11:50 a.m. | SSK05-08 | Room E353CIn this Wednesday presentation, Dutch researchers will report how repeat 3-tesla multiparametric MRI and MR-guided biopsy outperformed transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) biopsy in upgrading and upstaging patient risk restratification in a prostate cancer study at 12 months of follow-up.November 14, 2012MRIPreop MRI reliable for soft-tissue necrosis in hip patientsWednesday, November 28 | 11:00 a.m.-11:10 a.m. | SSK10-04 | Room E451APreoperative MRI using metal artifact suppression parameters can visualize extra-articular fluid collection, and is a reliable modality to show soft-tissue necrosis in patients presenting for additional surgery following primary total hip arthroplasty with metal-on-metal components, according to researchers from Massachusetts General Hospital.November 14, 2012MRIMARS MRI effectively evaluates hip pseudotumors and muscle atrophyWednesday, November 28 | 10:40 a.m.-10:50 a.m. | SSK10-02 | Room E451AMRI with metal artifact reduction software (MARS) is proving useful for the surveillance of metal-on-metal hips, diagnosing pseudotumors, and characterizing patterns of muscle atrophy, according to a U.K. study to be presented on Wednesday.November 14, 2012MRIMRI excels in imaging the temporomandibular jointTuesday, November 27 | 3:50 p.m.-4:00 p.m. | SSJ19-06 | Room N229German researchers are touting MRI as the gold standard to diagnostically image temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD), recommending that the modality be used in severe or therapy-resistant cases and for surgical planning purposes to reduce costs.November 14, 2012MRI1st real-time MRI-guided EP study shows options, challengesTuesday, November 27 | 3:40 p.m.-3:50 p.m. | SSJ04-05 | Room S504ABIn this scientific session, researchers from Germany plan to discuss what they say is the first pilot electrophysiology (EP) study of real-time MRI-guided placement of multiple catheters in humans with subsequent performance of stimulation maneuvers.November 14, 2012Previous PagePage 138 of 239Next PageTop StoriesCTRevealed: The cause of CT safety incident in BelgiumA single bottle of contaminated contrast agent was the cause of eight patients' illness after undergoing CT in Belgium.AIAgentic AI as the new infrastructure for interoperabilityWomens ImagingAI interpretation leads to high NPV, recall rates in breast imagingPractice ManagementHow does practice consolidation affect radiology services pricing?Sponsor Content"Join Us"
