SIR: Venous angioplasty relieves multiple sclerosis symptoms
SAN FRANCISCO - A controversial theory that vascular blockages cause multiple sclerosis (MS) found additional support this week at the Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR) meeting. Researchers showed that using vascular angioplasty to clear blocked veins also quelled some MS symptoms.

DR matches analog x-ray for pleural pneumoconiosis
Another milestone has been reached in establishing equivalency between digital radiography (DR) and conventional film-screen chest radiography for characterizing pneumoconiosis, a set of pulmonary diseases associated with job-related black lung disease and asbestosis.

Study shows CR exposure creep can be slowed, but is hard to stop
The long-suspected existence of exposure creep has been documented in a long-term study of computed radiography (CR) practices at an Australian teaching hospital. The study highlights the need for uniform exposure standards for CR systems manufactured by different vendors.

MRI uncovers cardiovascular risks for 9/11 first responders
Exposure to dust produced from the collapse of the twin towers at the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001, is subjecting the first responders to that disaster to an elevated risk of cardiovascular disease, according to results of a study involving dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI.

CT lung screening gets boost by adding COPD sequence
Low-dose CT lung screening has already demonstrated its effectiveness in reducing mortality from lung cancer. Now, Dutch researchers have found that adding a short sequence to the low-dose CT protocol can help the modality detect chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), according to a study published on Tuesday in the Journal of the American Medical Association.

(B) Coronal reconstruction of a head CT scan in a 20-year-old male patient shows penetrating trauma to the left eyeball with a retained bullet in the orbital cavity. (C) Radiograph of a fetus delivered by emergency cesarean section from a critically injured mother shows a left pneumothorax and catheter in place. (D) Radiograph in a 25-year-old female patient shows a comminuted fracture in the tibial metaphysis with fragment displacement and multiple bony fragments in the surrounding soft tissues.
