Wayne Forrest[email protected]MRIGerman study offers new method to determine liver iron contentThursday, December 1 | 11:40 a.m.-11:50 a.m. | SSQ06-08 | Room E350German researchers have developed an approach using a signal-intensity ratio to more quickly and efficiently determine liver iron content on gradient-echo MRI and eliminate the need for sophisticated mathematics.November 2, 2016MRIWhat does MRI have to do with SONK?Thursday, December 1 | 11:40 a.m.-11:50 a.m. | SSQ12-08 | Room E451AIn case you're wondering, SONK stands for spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee, which is related to a subchondral fracture. In this Thursday session, researchers will discuss how MRI can help assess this pesky break and predict how well patients will recover.November 2, 2016MRIAre all those C-spine MRI scans necessary?Thursday, December 1 | 11:00 a.m.-11:10 a.m. | SSQ05-04 | Room S405ABThis presentation will cover the need for C-spine MRI exams in acute trauma patients, and U.S. researchers will explain how understanding the frequency of findings can help radiologists guide ordering physicians as to the modality's appropriate use.November 2, 2016MRIMRI study targets biomarkers for diabetes mellitusThursday, December 1 | 10:40 a.m.-10:50 a.m. | SSQ06-02 | Room E350Researchers from Sweden are using MRI to profile the body composition of people with diabetes mellitus to provide direct biomarkers and improve characterization and early diagnosis of the disease.November 2, 2016MRINovel MRI technique enhances reads of carotid artery hemorrhageWednesday, November 30 | 11:40 a.m.-11:50 a.m. | SSK15-08 | Room N229In this talk, Canadian researchers will detail the success of their newly developed semiautomated 3D MRI technique to quantify carotid artery intraplaque hemorrhage.November 2, 2016MRIASL-MRI works for regional lung perfusion imagingWednesday, November 30 | 10:50 a.m.-11:00 a.m. | SSK05-03 | Room S404CDRegional lung perfusion imaging with noncontrast arterial spin labeling (ASL) at 3-tesla MRI is feasible and may provide new quantitative biomarkers for evaluating pulmonary vascular disease, according to this study from U.S. researchers.November 2, 2016MRIHow to distinguish radiation necrosis from tumor recurrenceWednesday, November 30 | 10:40 a.m.-10:50 a.m. | SSK15-02 | Room N229This Wednesday morning session will address how routine MRI scans could help solve one of neuro-oncology's biggest challenges: distinguishing radiation necrosis from tumor recurrence on follow-up scans.November 2, 2016MRITurn to multiparametric MRI to rule out prostate cancerTuesday, November 29 | 10:40 a.m.-10:50 a.m. | SSG05-02 | Room N229Multiparametric MRI is extremely proficient in ruling out clinically significant prostate cancer, especially in patients with a previous negative biopsy, according to researchers from Canada.November 2, 2016MRIUroradiologists can add value to MRI prostate readsTuesday, November 29 | 10:30 a.m.-10:40 a.m. | SSG05-01 | Room N229How valuable are uroradiologists as a second opinion for multiparametric MRI reads of the prostate to detect cancer? German researchers say their input can significantly improve both negative and positive predictive values.November 2, 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 2, 2016Previous PagePage 78 of 239Next PageTop StoriesMolecular ImagingAmyloid PET scans validated in racially diverse patientsChanges in care plans occurred in 59% of individuals after PET scans.Womens ImagingLimited access to PCPs thwarts mammography screening uptakeUltrasoundPOCUS rules out pulmonary congestion in kidney patientsEconomicsLow-value imaging services part of high Medicare costsDigital X-RayAI helps clinicians identify misplaced endotracheal tubes
