Wayne Forrest[email protected]MRINeuro atlas seeks to take fMRI to the next levelMonday, November 28 | 3:50 p.m.-4:00 p.m. | SSE17-06 | Room N228To overcome the limitations of functional MRI (fMRI), a group of researchers is developing an atlas to significantly enhance brain imaging and other related fMRI applications.November 2, 2016MRIReal-time fMRI tackles smoking cessationMonday, November 28 | 3:30 p.m.-3:40 p.m. | SSE17-04 | Room N228In the battle to help patients quit smoking successfully, real-time functional MRI (fMRI) may provide the ammunition to succeed once and for all. The goal is to reduce neural activity in certain regions of the brain that are most affected by nicotine exposure, according to researchers from Germany.November 2, 2016MRIMRI study targets chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathyMonday, November 28 | 3:10 p.m.-3:20 p.m. | SSE14-02 | Room E450BThis pilot study with MR neurography and diffusion-tensor MRI shows how the two imaging techniques could enhance the evaluation of peripheral nerves in patients with chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy.November 2, 2016MRITechnique offers efficient analysis of MRI data for Alzheimer'sMonday, November 28 | 3:00 p.m.-3:10 p.m. | SSE18-01 | Room N229In this Monday scientific session, researchers will outline a novel approach to differentiating early Alzheimer's disease patients from control subjects.November 2, 2016MRICAD 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 2, 2016MRIStepping test: A reliable way to measure 7-tesla MRI side effectsMonday, November 28 | 11:50 a.m.-12:00 p.m. | SSC11-09 | Room N226The Unterberger stepping test is a viable way to measure how 7-tesla MRI may affect the inner ear and, hence, the sense of balance, German researchers have concluded.November 2, 2016MRIMRI tracks the potential effects of too much ironMonday, November 28 | 11:40 a.m.-11:50 a.m. | SSC06-08 | Room N228This presentation offers some words of advice for radiologists: Watch for possible adrenal gland involvement, especially in the spleen, liver, and/or bone marrow, in cases of hemosiderosis.November 2, 2016MRIMRI shows benefits for renal cell carcinomaMonday, November 28 | 11:10 a.m.-11:20 a.m. | SSC06-05 | Room N228By better analyzing renal cell carcinoma, MRI could be a beneficial tool for determining whether patients with the disease should receive surgery or other treatments, say U.S. researchers.November 2, 2016MRIMRI with ultrashort echo time advances lung screeningMonday, November 28 | 11:00 a.m.-11:10 a.m. | SSC03-04 | Room S404CDIn this Monday morning session, German researchers will extol the benefits of 3-tesla MRI with ultrashort echo time for creating high-resolution images comparable to those of CT for lung nodule characterization.November 2, 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 2, 2016Previous PagePage 79 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
