New technology could become next primary breast cancer screener
VIENNA - Multimodal tomography, a 3D nonionizing diagnostic imaging technology, may one day overtake mammography as the primary breast screening method considering its high sensitivity and specificity, according to a Thursday presentation at the European Congress of Radiology.

Digital breast tomosynthesis will replace mammography
VIENNA - In 10 years, breast tomosynthesis will replace full-field digital mammography because of its higher sensitivity, enhanced image quality, and ability to image dense breasts, predicted a presenter at the European Congress of Radiology on Thursday.

MRI
Functional breast techniques receive cautious vote of confidence
VIENNA - Dynamic contrast-enhanced MR mammography is a sensitive method for detecting breast cancer because it highlights tumor vasculature, but diagnostic results may vary depending on reader experience. Diffusion-weighted imaging and MR spectroscopy aim to address this issue, and are continuing to show promise, according to a refresher course at the European Congress of Radiology.

DR chest tomosynthesis helps characterize lung lesions
The use of chest tomosynthesis with a digital radiography (DR) system enabled radiologists to characterize pulmonary lesions, circumventing the need for further diagnostic workup of patients with CT, according to a study by Italian researchers.

New U.K. study finds fewer benefits for breast screening
A new model-based analysis of mammography in the U.K. published Thursday in the British Medical Journal has found that the harms of breast screening may outweigh the benefits for up to 10 years after a screening program starts.

DR chest tomo reduces number of CT exams in Sweden
Using chest tomosynthesis with a digital radiography system reduced the number of chest CT exams performed at a Swedish institution, leading to lower radiation dose and better use of CT resources, according to a presentation from last week's RSNA meeting.

The future of radiology is bright, RSNA president says
CHICAGO - Radiology is beset with challenges ranging from regulatory to monetary. However, in his presidential address at the RSNA 2011 meeting, Dr. Burton Drayer said he preferred to focus on the "rainbows instead of the impending storm clouds."

SIIM regional meeting focuses on Calif. dose reporting bill
SAN FRANCISCO - California's new radiation dose reporting law was the focus of the Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine's (SIIM) first regional meeting. Attendees heard from inspectors on how they plan to enforce the law, which could become a model for other states concerned about radiation overdose.
