Rebekah Moan[email protected]MRIHIV drugs correlate with lower brain volumes on MRIOne of the largest-ever neuroimaging studies of individuals with HIV used MRI to reveal that lower current CD4+ T-cell counts were associated with smaller hippocampal and thalamic volumes in the brain. Also, the subset of participants not receiving treatment had smaller putamen volumes, according to findings published January 15 in JAMA Network Open.January 15, 2021Molecular ImagingCopper radiotracers ID tumors, improve survivalTwo copper radionuclides that target the somatostatin receptor overexpressed in neuroendocrine tumors can not only identify tumors but also improve survival, according to new research published in the December issue of the Journal of Nuclear Medicine.December 20, 2020PACS/VNAReport: 45M medical images are accessible onlineMore than 45Â million medical imaging files -- such as x-rays and CT scans -- are freely accessible on unprotected servers, according to a report from digital risk protection company CybelAngel.December 14, 2020Clinical NewsAJR: Positive studies may get published fasterRadiology studies with positive conclusions, but not positive titles, are published faster than ones with negative conclusions, according to a new study in the American Journal of Roentgenology. This could lead to an overrepresentation of positive results in scientific literature.November 15, 2020CTCTA spots COVID-19 in stroke patientsScanning acute ischemic stroke patients with CT angiography (CTA) helps determine if they have COVID-19 faster than waiting for results from a nasal swab, say researchers in a study published October 29 in Stroke. The findings add to the debate over the best time to use CT during COVID-19.October 28, 2020Radiation Oncology/TherapyProton therapy cuts radiation-induced heart disease riskUsing proton therapy to treat lung cancer patients may help reduce the risk of radiation-induced heart diseases, according to research to be presented October 25 at the American Society for Radiation Oncology 2020 virtual meeting.October 22, 2020MRIWorking group uses MRI to analyze brain traumaA new working group has been established between international institutions to use MRI to investigate some of the most puzzling questions about traumatic brain injury. The group includes 170 researchers from 13 countries.October 22, 2020Image-Guided SurgeryNew eyeglass-fluoroscopy device improves spinal surgeryJapanese researchers have developed a device that when attached to normal eyeglasses can display fluoroscopic images used for spinal surgical guidance, meaning a surgeon no longer needs to repeatedly look across an operating room to a video monitor.October 12, 2020BreastLanguage can be barrier to breast screeningWomen who only speak Spanish have a 27% less likelihood of getting a screening mammogram than English speakers, according to a study presented at the American College of Surgeons Clinical Congress 2020. And Spanish speakers aren't the only ones -- by and large, women who speak limited English are less likely to receive breast cancer screening.October 2, 2020BreastCan you trust YouTube videos on mammography?With more and more patients turning to digital media, particularly YouTube, for the answers to their mammography-related questions, are the videos made by knowledgeable people rising to the top? Or are they getting buried? A new study suggests the latter: Quality mammography videos are not reaching the majority of YouTube viewers.September 23, 2020Previous PagePage 3 of 6Next PageTop StoriesMRIDTI shows how Alzheimer's affects white matter microstructureDiffusion-tensor (DTI)-MRI reveals how Alzheimer's -- and cerebral small vessel disease (cSVD) -- affect the brain's white matter microstructure, researchers have found.Molecular ImagingFES-PET could save $142M in breast cancer costsPractice Management'Financial toxicity' screening for cancer care needs improvementCTOpportunistic chest CT helps predict low bone mineral densitySponsor ContentJourney to the Cloud: A Snapshot of Market Progress - May 22 @ 1pm EDT
