Rebekah Moan[email protected]Digital X-RayUltralow-dose protocol possible for idiopathic scoliosisThursday, December 5 | 12:15 p.m.-12:45 p.m. | CL-PDS-TH2A | Room S101ABIn this poster presentation, researchers will discuss how an ultralow-dose protocol using a biplanar slot-scanning digital x-ray system with optimized acquisition parameters can be used to monitor idiopathic scoliosis, allowing further dose reduction.November 5, 2013Digital X-RayMore work required to erase radiation in FukushimaWednesday, December 4 | 10:50 a.m.-11:00 a.m. | SSK11-03 | Room S405ABThe amount of radiation in Fukushima City, Japan, after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident in 2011 has decreased due to the removal of contaminated surface soil and tree leaves. However, some radiation still remains, and more effort to remove contaminated materials is necessary, researchers will report in this Wednesday session.November 5, 2013Digital X-RayNext-generation CAD improves diagnosisTuesday, December 3 | 3:50 p.m.-4:00 p.m. | SSJ06-06 | Room S404CDIn this afternoon scientific session, researchers will discuss how adopting next-generation computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) could improve time to diagnosis in patients with lung cancer.November 5, 2013Digital X-RayDitch chest x-ray for tuberculosis, researchers sayTuesday, December 3 | 3:30 p.m.-3:40 p.m. | SSJ06-04 | Room S404CDScreening chest radiography among people with positive tests for asymptomatic purified protein derivative is a low-yield study for detecting active tuberculosis (TB), so it may be time to reconsider this universal recommendation, according to New York researchers.November 5, 2013Digital X-RayDR, CR benefit from antiscatter gridTuesday, December 3 | 3:10 p.m.-3:20 p.m. | SSJ06-02 | Room S404CDIn this presentation, researchers will describe how using an antiscatter grid in adult bedside chest exams significantly improved perceived image quality for both mobile digital radiography (DR) and computed radiography (CR).November 5, 2013Digital X-RayDigital chest tomosynthesis outperforms conventional x-rayTuesday, December 3 | 3:00 p.m.-3:10 p.m. | SSJ06-01 | Room S404CDDigital chest tomosynthesis significantly improves the detection of pulmonary nodules compared with chest x-ray and is recommended for imaging nodules of actionable size, according to a study to be presented on Tuesday at RSNA 2013.November 5, 2013Digital X-RayKeep the skeletal survey for multiple myelomaTuesday, December 3 | 12:45 p.m.-1:15 p.m. | LL-MKS-TU2B | Lakeside Learning CenterA skeletal survey is a useful imaging tool for the initial staging of multiple myeloma, particularly in countries where MR resources are limited, U.K. researchers will report in this presentation.November 5, 2013Digital X-RayCanadian researchers develop new method for measuring DQETuesday, December 3 | 11:20 a.m.-11:30 a.m. | SSG15-06 | Room S404ABDetective quantum efficiency (DQE) is a common method for determining the performance of digital x-ray detectors, but a new model for calculating DQE may be needed to ensure high-quality images and low patient exposures with new digital detector designs, according to Canadian researchers.November 5, 2013Digital X-RayNanotube array makes stationary chest tomosynthesis possibleTuesday, December 3 | 10:50 a.m.-11:00 a.m. | SSG15-03 | Room S404ABIn this scientific session, researchers will discuss the feasibility of constructing a stationary chest tomosynthesis scanner using a nanotube-based x-ray source array.November 5, 2013PACS/VNAThe future is here: Motion-sensor workstationsTuesday, December 3 | 10:40 a.m.-10:50 a.m. | SSG15-02 | Room S404ABJapanese researchers have come up with a method that allows radiologists to control image viewing during angiography procedures without touching a workstation.November 5, 2013Previous PagePage 7 of 10Next PageTop StoriesCTBoth standard and ultrahigh resolution modes effective for PCCT CCTAThe study findings will help clinicians optimize protocols for coronary CT angiography using photon-counting detectors.AssociationsACR, MGMA respond to U.S. House, Senate passing 'Big, Beautiful Bill'InterventionalGAE with stem cells effective for knee osteoarthritisUltrasoundCan lung ultrasound predict delirium in elderly COVID-19 patients?MRIAI algorithm identifies patients at risk of sudden cardiac arrest
