Theresa Pablos[email protected]BreastInterval breast cancers have unique characteristicsInterval breast cancers diagnosed within one year of a breast screening exam may have unique characteristics that make them particularly aggressive and deadly, according to a study published on June 30 in JAMA Network Open.June 30, 2020Ultrasound3D ultrasound is effective for measuring blood flowResearchers from across the U.S. confirmed the efficacy of 3D color-flow ultrasound for cheaply and reliably measuring blood flow. The findings, which were published on June 30 in Radiology, could help physicians precisely measure blood flow for people with chronic conditions.June 29, 2020UltrasoundSIIM 2020: COVID-19 could accelerate nonrad POCUS useThe adoption of point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) by nonradiologists may be accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as rapid technological advancements, according to a June 26 panel presentation at the virtual annual meeting of the Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine (SIIM).June 28, 2020Breast6 cognitive biases that lead to missed breast cancersMissed cancers on breast imaging can be deadly for patients and costly for radiologists. But acknowledging the existence of six cognitive biases may help prevent missing a crucial breast cancer diagnosis, according to a June 12 article in Radiographics.June 25, 2020UltrasoundEchocardiography reveals heart changes in WNBA playersEchocardiograms revealed evidence of cardiac remodeling among elite athletes in the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA), according to the findings of a landmark study published on June 24 in JAMA Cardiology.June 25, 2020UltrasoundUltrasound software predicts cancer treatment successResearchers have developed contrast-enhanced ultrasound software that can accurately predict which patients with a common form of liver cancer will respond to transcatheter arterial chemoembolization, according to the findings of a June 16 study in Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology.June 24, 2020UltrasoundAuntMinnie.com Ultrasound InsiderJune 22, 2020BreastDBT has lower rad dose than digital mammo in new studyDigital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) exposed women to significantly less radiation than full-field digital mammography in a study of 200 patients published on June 3 in the Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences.June 22, 2020UltrasoundTransducer shell improves elastography measurementsA 3D-printed device with built-in pressure sensors that fits around an ultrasound transducer like a shell could produce more accurate shear-wave elastography measurements for breast imaging and other use cases. Researchers describe the prototype attachment in a June 15 article in Ultrasound in Medicine & Biology.June 21, 2020BreastBreast screening interventions are cost-effectiveInterventions designed to help underserved and vulnerable women in the U.S. overcome barriers to breast screening are cost-effective, according to a review published on June 18 in JAMA Oncology by researchers from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.June 17, 2020Previous PagePage 14 of 22Next PageTop StoriesPractice ManagementNew MR safety codes provide additional reimbursement for radiologistsIn a new column, Erin Stephens of Healthcare Administrative Partners reviews the new CPT code changes for MR safety services.CTCT, MRI reveal hidden brain changes linked to increased fall riskWomens ImagingImaging societies, experts react to U.S. Supreme Court's ruling on Braidwood caseMRIDeep learning plus MRI predicts likelihood of postpartum hemorrhageWomens ImagingPersonal tragedies spur unity behind bill for diagnostic breast care
