The authors believe the findings justify the use of computer-aided detection (CAD) solutions for breast screening.July 30, 20202019Early recognition can reduce stress and prevent burnoutStress at work is an increasingly common phenomenon, but radiologists still may not be recognizing the symptoms of burnout in both colleagues and themselves, according to expert speakers at today's Professional Challenges session at ECR 2019. Like all health problems, identifying issues early and taking appropriate action is key to the cure.March 1, 2019MRIIs 7-tesla MRI ready yet to go clinical?Clinical 7-tesla MRI is no longer a distant pipedream for researchers and is gaining ground in routine scenarios, advocates of the technique state. Its growing pertinence for diseases such as multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, and dementia means that radiologists need to know about the latest 7-tesla practice and its potential, but some practical issues still remain.February 27, 2019Nuclear MedicineBe aware of artifacts to improve hybrid imaging outcomesAwareness of possible artifacts and pitfalls in hybrid imaging is the first step in dealing with them, ECR 2019 delegates learned in a session during the opening day of the congress. The presenters also discussed new types of problems and challenges that may occur with the clinical application of novel specific tracers.February 26, 2019UltrasoundFrench seek progress on ultrasound hygieneWhile French radiologists are waiting for a Ministry of Health decision on ultrasound probe disinfection regulations, the country's scientific societies are gearing up to promote higher decontamination standards in line with other European countries, ultrasound expert Prof. Nicolas Grenier revealed at the RSNA 2018 meeting in Chicago.December 4, 2018Industry NewsIs an accurate two-minute biopsy viable?Performing a reliable and cost-effective biopsy in less than two minutes is now possible, thanks to a noninvasive and nondestructive real-time optical imaging device, the head of Paris-based company LLTech Imaging claimed during RSNA 2018.December 2, 2018CTImaging-based autopsy matches traditional approachRates of autopsy are declining, for a variety of cultural and economic reasons. But autopsy still offers valuable information about an individual's cause of death. Could an imaging-based approach replace traditional autopsy? Dutch researchers investigated this question in a study published September 25 in Radiology.September 25, 2018MRIMRI quality training comes up shortA study conducted by Irish and Saudi researchers into opinions and attitudes among MRI professionals has revealed that radiographers have a low participation rate in quality assurance testing and may rely too heavily on equipment vendors for ongoing scanner performance.August 2, 2018BreastResearch spotlights breast screening shortfall in IranNew research has shown that the number of women undergoing mammography screening in Iran is far from satisfactory. While breast screening can save lives, the study has highlighted significant gaps in the country's screening strategy for safeguarding its target population.May 21, 2018CTCT dose comes under close scrutiny in Saudi ArabiaA comprehensive study of diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) in Saudi Arabia has shown that the current levels are comparable with European DRLs, thanks to cutting-edge imaging technology, but patient dose varies between departments depending on scanning mode and protocols used.April 9, 2018Previous PagePage 3 of 11Next PageTop StoriesPractice Management'Financial toxicity' screening for cancer care needs improvementScreening for "financial toxicity" in cancer care could use improvement in the U.S., according to a new review.CTOpportunistic chest CT helps predict low bone mineral densityMolecular ImagingNew guidance issued on PET/CT imaging in breast cancerDigital X-RayIMV: Hospital-based diagnostic x-ray volumes continue to declineSponsor ContentJourney to the Cloud: A Snapshot of Market Progress - May 22 @ 1pm EDT
