Did Image Gently reduce CT use for kidney stones?
The CT utilization rate for children with kidney stones has gradually decreased in recent years, but researchers from Michigan are questioning whether the Image Gently safe-imaging initiative is the cause of the trend. Their findings were published online January 28 in the Journal of Urology.

High CT CAC scores in athletes do not increase mortality
Men who regularly engage in high levels of physical activity are at an increased risk of having elevated CT coronary artery calcification (CAC) scores, but this association does not translate into a higher risk of all-cause mortality, according to research published online January 30 in JAMA Cardiology.
