Quantitative methods find best digital mammo compression
By Erik L. Ridley
Identifying the right compression ratios for digital images is never easy, especially for mammography. But Greek researchers believe they may have found a way to determine the optimal ratio though quantitative metrics, rather than subjective assessments such as radiologists' perceptions of image quality.

MicroCT plus 3D helps solve mysteries of lung disease
By Erik L. Ridley
A research group has combined microCT with image processing tools to create a 3D rendering of the pulmonary acinus, which could enhance understanding of lung diseases. The model could also help clarify the role of acini in drug delivery, as sites where gases and blood mix in the lung.

Iterative reconstruction cuts CT dose for urinary stone disease
By Eric Barnes
Iterative reconstruction allows steep CT radiation dose reductions in urolithiasis imaging without loss of image quality or diagnostic confidence, researchers from Massachusetts General Hospital have found. The results may help allay fears of potentially excessive radiation in these oft-repeated scans.
