Wayne Forrest[email protected]MRIDTI shows how music could help kids with autism, ADHDDiffusion-tensor MR images (DTI-MRI) of the brain have revealed that taking music lessons increases brain fiber connections in children and may help those with autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The findings are scheduled for presentation on November 30 at RSNA 2016.November 22, 2016MRISwitch to macrocyclic GBCAs reduces brain signalsAs more studies weigh the risks and benefits of gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs), German researchers have discovered that switching from a linear GBCA to a macrocyclic GBCA reduced the level of residual signal intensity in the brains of patients who underwent multiple enhanced MRI scans with both types of agents.November 20, 2016MRIAuntMinnie.com MRI InsiderNovember 15, 2016Nuclear MedicinePET/CT of calcium forewarns of adverse cardiac eventPatients with a normal stress test but evidence of calcium in coronary arteries on PET/CT scans are not immune from a serious adverse cardiac event within a year, according to a study presented on Monday at the American Heart Association annual meeting in New Orleans.November 14, 2016MRIMRI signals may show residual GBCA effects in the brainAs researchers explore the potential long-term effects of gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs), the direct measurement on MRI scans of T1 and T2 signal intensities in the brain may become a reliable method, according to a study published online October 31 in Radiology.November 10, 2016Molecular ImagingRoad to RSNA 2016: Molecular Imaging PreviewPresentations at RSNA 2016 will highlight the potential of molecular imaging to advance healthcare in the coming years.
