The key? Bolstering outreach to eligible smokers, according to an article in the June American Journal of Managed Care.June 17, 2018CTAre good intentions good enough for reducing CT dose?CT radiation dose has been the target of a variety of recommendations, protocols, and guidelines designed to reduce how much dose patients receive. But despite good intentions, radiology may not be doing all it can to reduce CT radiation dose, according to a June 12 opinion article in the American Journal of Roentgenology.June 14, 2018Advanced VisualizationCinematic rendering sheds light on abdominal pathologyCinematic rendering may help improve preoperative planning for complex surgeries in the stomach and kidneys by enhancing the surface detail of abdominal CT scans, according to research recently published online in Abdominal Radiology and the Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography.June 12, 2018CTCT links brain calcifications to smoking, diabetesResearchers from the Netherlands examined the brain CT scans of patients with memory complaints and identified a strong association between the presence of calcifications in the hippocampus and various risk factors such as smoking and diabetes, according to an article published online June 12 in Radiology.June 12, 2018CTAre we using the right metrics for CT lung screening?CT lung cancer screening has been shown to reduce mortality when administered to high-risk smokers, but a new study is questioning whether the right metrics are being used to demonstrate this reduction, according to an article published online June 7 in JAMA Oncology.June 7, 2018Advanced Visualization3D-printed aortas could work well for TAVRResearchers from Italy have created low-cost, individually tailored 3D-printed aortas that could work well for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), according to an article published online May 26 in the Journal of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography.June 6, 2018Previous PagePage 46 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
