Abraham Kim[email protected]Advanced VisualizationAI, AR enable real-time pain assessment on virtual brainResearchers from Michigan have developed a new technique for real-time pain assessment on virtual 3D brain models using a combination of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms and augmented reality (AR) technology. They detail their method in an article recently published in the Journal of Medical Internet Research.July 9, 2019CTCT lung screening's benefits persist over timeIn an update to the National Lung Screening Trial, researchers from the U.S. are reporting a sustained reduction in cancer deaths from CT lung screening roughly 12 years after the initial screening exam. The findings were recently published online in the Journal of Thoracic Oncology.July 7, 2019AISIIM: AI boosts triage efficiency for aortic tears on CTADENVER - An artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm was able to screen for aortic dissection and rupture on CT angiography (CTA) scans with high accuracy -- improving triage efficiency for the conditions prior to radiologist review – in a new study, presented Friday at the Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine (SIIM) annual meeting.June 30, 2019CTCT lung screening criteria overlook racial differencesCurrent eligibility criteria for CT lung cancer screening from the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force do not account for racial differences -- leaving behind a large proportion of African American smokers who would benefit from the test, say Tennessee researchers in an article published online June 27 in JAMA Oncology.June 27, 2019CTRisk model predicts malignancy of lung nodules on CTA new risk-prediction model proved capable of estimating the likelihood that pulmonary nodules detected on CT scans would become malignant in a new study, published online July 27 in Cancer Prevention Research. The model may assist clinicians in managing patients at risk of developing lung cancer.June 27, 2019Advanced VisualizationSIIM: New reimbursement codes set to advance 3D printingDENVER - In anticipation of the unprecedented launch of reimbursement codes for medical 3D printing in July, a panel of 3D printing experts discussed the implications of this critical landmark and how it may shape future work in the field in a Thursday interactive session at the Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine (SIIM) annual meeting.June 26, 2019PACS/VNASIIM: Automated reporting tool optimizes CT lung screeningDENVER - A computer-assisted reporting tool integrated directly into the radiology workflow bolstered the ability of clinicians to distinguish benign from malignant lung nodules on CT lung screening exams in a new study, presented on Wednesday at the Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine (SIIM) annual meeting.June 26, 2019Advanced VisualizationAR may boost efficiency of minimally invasive surgeryResearchers from the U.K. used an augmented reality (AR) headset to examine CT scans alongside an endoscopic video of patient anatomy while simulating minimally invasive surgery. The technology helped improve operating times and surgical proficiency in a new study, published online June 18 in Surgical Endoscopy.June 25, 2019CTLowering tube voltage slashes CCTA radiation doseRadiation dose for coronary CT angiography (CCTA) exams can be reduced by as much as 68% -- without hindering diagnostic image quality -- simply by lowering the tube voltage, according to the findings of a multicenter study recently published online in JACC: Cardiovascular Imaging.June 19, 2019CTEmergency CT usage rate soars for urinary stonesThe overall usage rate of emergency CT for patients with suspected urinary stones has doubled over the past decade, with marked variations based on patient demographics, type of insurance, and hospital location, according to an article published online June 17 in the Journal of the American College of Radiology.June 18, 2019Previous PagePage 21 of 63Next PageTop StoriesInterventionalAI supports remote guidance of IR proceduresFacial blurring software could facilitate broader adoption of remote guidance for interventional radiology (IR) procedures.CTThoracic radiologists publish post-COVID CT imaging recommendationsInterventionalGAE further validated for patients with knee osteoarthritisMRIMRI shows acupuncture's promise for treating concussion symptomsSponsor ContentWhen time is of the essence
