Abraham Kim[email protected]CTDoes mental illness affect access to CT lung screening?Monday, November 26 | 11:20 a.m.-11:30 a.m. | SSC03-06 | Room E451AIn this Monday presentation, researchers from Boston will discuss the relationship between mental illness and CT lung cancer screening eligibility.October 31, 2018CTCT perfusion plus CCTA improves diagnosis of CADMonday, November 26 | 11:20 a.m.-11:30 a.m. | SSC01-06 | Room S504CDA group from Italy found that stress coronary CT perfusion in addition to coronary CT angiography (CCTA) can enhance the diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients at intermediate to high risk for the disease.October 31, 2018CTCAD cuts reading time for CT lung cancer screeningMonday, November 26 | 11:10 a.m.-11:20 a.m. | SSC03-05 | Room E451AComputer-aided detection (CAD) can help radiologists as they look for nodules on CT lung cancer screening exams -- in particular, by speeding up the process, according to this Monday presentation.October 31, 2018CTCT biomarker helps stage chronic liver diseaseMonday, November 26 | 11:00 a.m.-11:10 a.m. | SSC06-04 | Room N229Liver surface nodularity -- a quantitative biomarker evident on CT scans -- accurately stages chronic liver disease nearly as well as traditional liver biopsy, according to researchers from Alabama.October 31, 2018CTAbdominal CT protocols confuse nonradiology cliniciansSunday, November 25 | 1:00 p.m.-1:30 p.m. | QI101-ED-SUB1 | Lakeside, QR Community, Station 1The majority of nonradiology clinicians are not entirely sure which type of abdominal CT exam -- with or without contrast -- is most appropriate for patients presenting with pain or disease of the abdomen, according to this Sunday poster presentation.October 31, 2018CTDeep-learning algorithm automates FFR-CT estimationSunday, November 25 | 11:35 a.m.-11:45 a.m. | SSA03-06 | Room S404ABResearchers from Japan have developed a deep-learning model capable of automatically estimating minimum fractional flow reserve CT (FFR-CT) with an accuracy approaching that of invasive FFR.October 31, 2018CTCT perfusion tops FFR-CT in predicting cardiac eventsSunday, November 25 | 11:05 a.m.-11:15 a.m. | SSA03-03 | Room S404ABCT myocardial perfusion may be a better predictor for major adverse cardiac events in patients with coronary artery disease than fractional flow reserve CT (FFR-CT), according to this study being presented on Sunday.October 31, 2018CTNew CT biomarker may help predict lung cancer mortalitySunday, November 25 | 10:55 a.m.-11:05 a.m. | SSA05-02 | Room E451ACan emphysema scores drawn from CT scans help improve predictions concerning lung cancer mortality? The answer was yes for researchers from the Netherlands.October 31, 2018CTIs FFR-CT or CT perfusion better for evaluating CAD?Sunday, November 25 | 10:55 a.m.-11:05 a.m. | SSA03-02 | Room S404ABBoth fractional flow reserve CT (FFR-CT) and CT perfusion are viable options for detecting stenosis in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), though CT perfusion may be more accurate, according to researchers from Italy.October 31, 2018CTPhoton-counting CT boosts resolution of lung imagingSunday, November 25 | 10:45 a.m.-10:55 a.m. | SSA05-01 | Room E451AU.S. researchers used photon-counting CT scans of the chest to capture tiny details in patients' lungs, with notably higher spatial resolution than conventional CT, according to this study to be presented on Sunday.October 31, 2018Previous PagePage 38 of 63Next 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
