Discuss AR may boost efficiency of minimally invasive surgery
June 26, 2019 -- Researchers from the U.K. used an augmented reality (AR) headset to examine CT scans alongside an endoscopic video of patient anatomy while simulating minimally invasive surgery. The technology helped improve operating times and surgical proficiency in a new study, published online June 18 in Surgical Endoscopy.

Discuss TRUS bests MRI for identifying prostate cancer
June 26, 2019 -- Combining ultrasound techniques on transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) better identifies prostate cancer than using these techniques alone -- and finds the disease more effectively than multiparametric MRI, according to a study published in the July issue of the Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine.

Discuss AI can help predict heart attacks, death on CCTA
June 25, 2019 -- An artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm can predict heart attacks and death better on coronary CT angiography (CCTA) studies than risk-assessment methods such as the Coronary Artery Disease Reporting and Data System, according to research published online June 25 in Radiology.

Discuss Digital radiography may be leading to 'collimation creep'
June 25, 2019 -- Is the desire to produce "prettier" x-ray images leading to "collimation creep" as radiographers crop digital radiography images rather than use more appropriate collimation settings? That's the contention of a paper published in the June edition of the Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Sciences.
