How prevalent are incidental thyroid nodules on CT?
Incidental thyroid nodules on CT lung screening scans may be more common than you think, according to an analysis of data from the National Lung Screening Trial (NLST). Researchers found more nodules requiring workup than were originally reported by NLST readers.

Lung cancer risk model optimizes follow-up CT screening
How might a lung cancer risk-prediction model improve follow-up CT screening? A model that incorporates patient characteristics and CT data could allow many individuals to skip the first annual follow-up screening exam -- reducing costs and radiation exposure, according to research published online recently in Thorax.

Study questions use of whole-body CT for kids with trauma
Does examining whole-body CT scans of children who present to the emergency department with blunt trauma improve their survival more than evaluating select CT scans of the patients' injured areas? Not in the least, found a study published online April 9 in JAMA Pediatrics.

Does organ-specific CT dose reduction really reduce dose?
Researchers from Belgium are questioning whether organ-based tube-current modulation in CT chest studies of women really reduces radiation dose. They found that while radiation dose to the breast fell, it increased in other areas, according to a study published on March 27 in Radiology.
