Abraham Kim[email protected]CTNew CT guidance method improves lung nodule localizationSunday, December 1 | 11:45 a.m.-11:55 a.m. | SSA24-07 | Room S404CDResearchers from Michigan have developed a minimally invasive CT-guided technique for preoperatively marking lung nodules as accurately as standard techniques, which they will detail in their upcoming Sunday presentation.November 6, 2019CTDECT more cost-effective than CT, MRI for kidney lesionsSunday, December 1 | 11:35 a.m.-11:45 a.m. | SSA11-06 | Room N230BDual-energy CT (DECT) may be more cost-effective than conventional CT or MRI for evaluating incidentally detected renal lesions, based on simulations from an analytical model that serve as the subject of this study to be presented on Sunday.November 6, 2019CTCT whole-heart volume predicts adverse cardiac eventsSunday, December 1 | 11:05 a.m.-11:15 a.m. | SSA03-03 | Room S105ABIndividuals with a small 3D whole-heart volume, as calculated on CT scans, have an increased risk of major adverse cardiac events, compared with those with a normal or large heart volume, according to researchers from Harvard Medical School.November 6, 2019CTRoad to RSNA 2019: CT PreviewThe vast number of CT presentations at RSNA 2019 is a testament to the modality's resilience, its value, and its adaptability. This year's presentations will reaffirm the utility of tried-and-true imaging techniques and also feature relatively new technologies that have already begun reshaping the approach radiologists take to common clinical applications.November 6, 2019CTCT lung screening proves cost-effective even at older agesA cost analysis of well-established CT lung cancer screening guidelines confirmed that screening remains cost-effective even at the oldest upper age limits, with screening of older people incurring more costs but offering greater reductions in mortality risk. The findings were published online November 4 in Annals of Internal Medicine.November 4, 2019CTReversed halo sign on chest CT linked to septic PEThe presence of a reversed halo sign on chest CT scans is indicative of septic pulmonary embolism (PE) in patients with intravenous substance use disorder, according to a study published online October 31 in the American Journal of Roentgenology.November 3, 2019CTCould cold, hard cash reduce unnecessary head CT scans?Offering financial incentives like cash to emergency patients with minor traumatic brain injury to convince them to skip scans that might not be medically indicated may help reduce the rate of unnecessary head CT exams, according to an article published in the October issue of Academic Emergency Medicine.October 30, 2019Advanced Visualization4 core applications of cardiovascular 3D printingHow are clinicians integrating 3D printing technology into adult cardiovascular medicine? Researchers from the U.S., Switzerland, and China detail a wide range of examples in four core areas in a review article published online October 21 in Interactive Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery.October 27, 2019CTSmokers less likely to undergo medical, screening examsCurrent smokers who met the National Lung Screening Trial criteria for CT lung cancer screening were less likely to participate in general medical checkups and colon cancer screening exams than those who did not in a new study, published online October 22 in PLOS One.October 23, 2019CTLife expectancy model refines CT lung screening criteriaResearchers from the U.S. National Institutes of Health have developed a prediction model that determines an individual's eligibility for CT lung cancer screening based on life years gained. The model may be a more effective alternative to traditional screening criteria, according to an October 22 article in the Annals of Internal Medicine.October 22, 2019Previous PagePage 14 of 63Next PageTop StoriesWomens ImagingNew research initiative to create protocol for women with BACThe InAWH and the Washington Research Foundation aim to help hospitals and providers put BAC reporting into practice.UltrasoundSiemens focuses ultrasound business on procedural imagingUltrasoundFDA: Philips Lumify ultrasound issue tied to 4 deathsCTNew dataset maps people eligible for LDCT lung cancer screeningAISopris Capital buys Blackford Analysis from Bayer
