Could MRI replace CT for lung cancer screening?
Monday, November 26 | 11:50 a.m.-12:00 p.m. | SSC03-09 | Room E451AMRI could be a more cost-effective alternative to CT for lung cancer screening, say researchers from the U.S., Switzerland, and Germany, who used a prediction model to compare the two exams.

CT reveals heart enlargement differs in men, women
Is CT a viable alternative to cardiac MRI for assessing heart chamber enlargement? Yes, say researchers from Canada, who discovered that the condition was much more common in men than women. Their findings were published in the November issue of the American Journal of Roentgenology.

ASTRO: Weekly breast radiation therapy is safe
A larger, weekly dose of radiation therapy has side effects that are comparable to those from conventional daily treatments for early-stage breast cancer, say U.K. researchers, who shared their findings on Sunday at the American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) meeting in San Antonio.

CT radiomics improves management of bile duct cancer
Researchers from China have developed a radiomics model that can determine the malignancy of lymph node metastases in patients with bile duct cancer by analyzing features on CT scans, according to an article recently published online in Radiology. They believe the model can predict the survival rate of patients.

3D printing boosts efficiency of rib fracture repair
Researchers from Taiwan have created 3D-printed models of rib structures based on chest CT scans to facilitate presurgical planning for rib fracture stabilization. The technique led to reductions in operating time and length of surgical incisions, according to an article recently published online in PLOS One.

Report predicts plunge in U.S. lung cancer mortality
In a new paper, researchers from the U.S. National Cancer Institute and other U.S. institutions predict mortality from lung cancer will plunge through 2065, largely due to the success of smoking-control efforts. Lung cancer screening may also help reinforce this trend, according to the article, published online October 8 in the Annals of Internal Medicine.
