Apply Formula 1-type methods to smooth the way in urogenital emergencies
VIENNA - There is no single gold standard for training medical teams, but it can pay off to adapt team-working principles from other high-reliability industries such as Formula 1 racing, and integrate them into crisis resource management training, according to a presentation by emergency room radiologists on Monday at ECR 2013.

Adults with congenital heart disease represent growing challenge
VIENNA - Thanks to medical progress, most babies born with congenital heart disease (CHD) now survive to adulthood. Imaging is critical for these patients, and it's important for radiologists to become familiar with the most common CHD imaging aspects and surgical procedures, according to a special focus session on Saturday at ECR 2013.

Consensus grows for switch from fluoroscopy to MRI in pelvic floor imaging
After years of using conventional fluoroscopic evacuation proctography, radiologists at London's University College Hospital have switched entirely to MR proctography for imaging the pelvic floor. The clinical rational behind the change was the focus of a European Congress of Radiology session Friday.
