Wayne Forrest[email protected]MRIGadobutrol causes 'very low' number of allergic-like reactionsAs radiologists and clinicians maintain their vigilance over the judicious use of gadolinium-based contrast agents for MRI scans, a new prospective study in Radiology has found that one agent, gadobutrol, resulted in a very low number of allergic-like reactions.November 8, 2016MRIStudy reveals global preoperative breast MRI utilizationThursday, December 1 | 11:50 a.m.-12:00 p.m. | SSQ01-09 | Room E450AHow do physicians use preoperative breast MRI scans for women with newly diagnosed cancer, and how effective is the modality in directing patients to the most appropriate treatment? This Thursday session will shed some light on these questions.November 8, 2016MRIDutch researchers add TWIST to breast MRITuesday, November 29 | 9:10 a.m.-9:20 a.m. | RC315-04 | Arie Crown TheaterDutch researchers may have found a way to make breast cancer screening less expensive and time-consuming through an ultrafast dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI sequence known as time-resolved angiography with stochastic trajectories (TWIST).November 8, 2016MRIStudy links MRI biomarkers with breast cancer prognosisMonday, November 28 | 10:40 a.m.-10:50 a.m. | SSC08-02 | Room S402ABCertain MRI biomarkers may provide an early prediction of how a breast cancer patient will respond to the first cycle of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and they may help determine whether additional treatment is necessary, according to a new study.November 8, 2016Advanced VisualizationCAD boosts MRI proficiency for prostate cancerMonday, November 28 | 11:50 a.m.-12:00 p.m. | SSC08-09 | Room S402ABAdding computer-aided detection (CAD) results in greater sensitivity and interreader agreement for radiologists interpreting multiparametric MRI scans for prostate cancer, as well as reduced reading times, according to researchers from Italy.November 7, 2016MRIfMRI beats polygraph test in detecting liesThe next time you think someone is telling a lie, give them a functional MRI (fMRI) scan instead of a polygraph test. Researchers found that fMRI experts were 24% more likely to detect a deception on fMRI than polygraph examiners were using polygraphy.November 6, 2016Nuclear MedicineJNM: Florbetaben-PET detects cardiac amyloidosisAustralian researchers have shown the proficiency of PET with the radiotracer F-18 florbetaben to detect abnormal deposits of proteins in the heart in a study published in the November issue of the Journal of Nuclear Medicine.November 3, 2016Nuclear MedicineNovel PET compound could aid Alzheimer's detectionResearchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have developed a chemical compound that detects amyloid deposits on PET scans better than currently approved imaging agents, according to a paper published November 2 in Scientific Reports.November 2, 2016MRIRoad to RSNA 2016: MRI PreviewOnce again at this year's annual meeting of RSNA, researchers and clinicians will offer a myriad of studies and poster presentations to show how they are continually tweaking, expanding, and experimenting with MRI to explore beyond current clinical boundaries.November 2, 2016MRIStudy reveals global preoperative breast MRI utilizationThursday, December 1 | 11:50 a.m.-12:00 p.m. | SSQ01-09 | Room E450AHow do physicians use preoperative breast MRI scans for women with newly diagnosed cancer, and how effective is the modality in directing patients to the most appropriate treatment?
