They found that the technique increased the speed and accuracy of diagnosing stenosis in coronary arteries.November 1, 2017CTRoad to RSNA 2017: CT PreviewAt RSNA 2017, researchers are highlighting the most advanced CT methods to refine diagnoses, track diseases, and even predict the onset of adverse events. The unending pursuit of CT image quality will be one of the key themes of this year's conference.November 1, 2017CTUCLA offers ambulatory stroke care with mobile CTIn a pilot project, University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) Health has launched a specialized ambulance unit that is prepared to treat stroke patients on the spot using a mobile CT scanner.October 29, 2017CTCanadian risk model boosts CT lung screening efficiencyIs the risk model used in the National Lung Screening Trial really the best one for determining which individuals should get CT screening for lung cancer? Maybe not, according to Canadian researchers who published what they think might be a more effective model in an October 17 paper in Lancet Oncology.October 23, 2017Advanced VisualizationPortable gaming sensor enables 3D scans of elephantiasisA portable infrared sensing device can produce rapid and accurate 3D scans of legs affected by elephantiasis, according to a study published online October 16 in the American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene.October 17, 2017Advanced VisualizationGaming technology armed to reduce repeat x-raysVideo game technology is being used for much more than simply playing games these days. Case in point: A motion-sensing device for gaming consoles can now be used to help set x-ray exposure parameters, reducing repeat exams, according to a study published online in Pediatric Radiology.October 17, 2017Previous PagePage 61 of 63Next PageTop StoriesCTNew benchmark helps monitor cumulative CT radiation doseThe findings highlight the need for systematic dose tracking and rigorous justification of imaging.Radiation Oncology/TherapyStudy questions routine use of radiotherapy after bone surgeryUltrasoundCEUS outshines color Doppler imaging for indeterminate kidney lesionsWomens ImagingWomen's Imaging MinnieCast, Episode 2: Risk-based vs. annual mammography screening, part 1Digital X-RayChest x-rays reveal atherosclerosis in patients undergoing amputations
