In this Tuesday afternoon presentation, radiologists from Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center will discuss their development of a system for radiologists to give radiography results directly to outpatients.November 12, 2017RSNAIs digital tomo an option for lung cancer screening?Monday, November 27 | 12:45 p.m.-1:15 p.m. | CH238-SD-MOB2 | Lakeside, CH Community, Station 2With all the excitement over CT lung cancer screening, radiography has largely been forgotten as a lung screening tool. But could digital tomosynthesis make it relevant again? Researchers from Italy will address that question in this Monday afternoon presentation.November 12, 2017RSNA'Virtual dual energy' separates bone from soft tissue on chest x-raysMonday, November 27 | 12:15 p.m.-12:45 p.m. | PH217-SD-MOA6 | Lakeside, PH Community, Station 6Illinois Institute of Technology researchers will present their work on a virtual dual-energy tool that enables studies to be produced from conventional digital x-ray exams without requiring double exposures.November 12, 2017Digital X-RayFrame-rate conversion technique can reduce fluoro radiation doseMonday, November 27 | 12:15 p.m.-12:45 p.m. | PH214-SD-MOA3 | Lakeside, PH Community, Station 3In this poster, Japanese researchers will present their use of a technique called frame-rate conversion to reduce radiation dose in fluoroscopy studies.November 12, 2017RSNACarbon nanotube tomosynthesis may be better for cystic fibrosisMonday, November 27 | 12:15 p.m.-12:45 p.m. | PD211-SD-MOA2 | Lakeside, PD Community, Station 2Could digital tomosynthesis using a digital x-ray system with a carbon nanotube x-ray source serve as a better option than conventional x-ray for imaging patients with cystic fibrosis? Find out in this Monday afternoon poster presentation.November 12, 2017RSNAChart technique reduces radiation dose for infant osseous surveysMonday, November 27 | 11:30 a.m.-11:40 a.m. | SSC14-07 | Room S503ABIn this talk, researchers from the University of Alabama at Birmingham Hospital will discuss their development of a chart listing technique for optimal radiation exposure parameters for osseous surveys of infants using portable digital radiography.November 12, 2017RSNAPixel size of detector doesn't affect hand fracture detectionMonday, November 27 | 11:00 a.m.-11:10 a.m. | SSC14-04 | Room S503ABIf you use a digital radiography detector with smaller pixel sizes, will it result in better detection of fractures in hand radiographs? Not necessarily, according to researchers from France.November 12, 2017UltrasoundUltrasound beats x-ray for finding pediatric GI obstructionsSunday, November 26 | 12:30 p.m.-1:00 p.m. | PD204-SD-SUA5 | Lakeside, PD Community, Station 5Ultrasound did a better job than plain radiography of detecting the cause of gastrointestinal (GI) obstruction in children, according to researchers from the U.S. and Iran.November 12, 2017Digital X-RayDigital tomo improves visualization of foot and ankle arthritisSunday, November 26 | 11:45 a.m.-11:55 a.m. | SSA14-07 | Room S406AResearchers are investigating digital tomosynthesis for a variety of applications. Weight-bearing radiography of individuals with arthritis of the foot and ankle is one such application, and the topic will be covered in this Sunday morning talk.November 12, 2017Digital X-RayDR database can improve reject rate analysisSunday, November 26 | 11:00 a.m.-12:30 p.m. | RCC11 | Room S501ABCThe topic of improving quality control of digital radiography (DR) through the analysis of reject rates will be discussed in this Sunday refresher course moderated by Kevin Little, PhD, a diagnostic medical physicist from Ohio State University Medical Center.November 12, 2017Previous PagePage 62 of 140Next PageTop StoriesDigital X-RayChest x-rays reveal atherosclerosis in patients undergoing amputationsLower limb amputation is an increasingly common major complication of advanced peripheral arterial disease and diabetes mellitus.MRI3D MRI technique helps plan treatment for pediatric heart conditionsWomens ImagingCould AI scoring help with managing DCIS?CTClinicians, beware: CT diagnostic accuracy varies by adnexal lesion typePractice ManagementRadiology coding update for 2026
