Life expectancy model refines CT lung screening criteria
October 23, 2019 -- Researchers from the U.S. National Institutes of Health have developed a prediction model that determines an individual's eligibility for CT lung cancer screening based on life years gained. The model may be a more effective alternative to traditional screening criteria, according to an October 22 article in the Annals of Internal Medicine.

Discuss Can AI find brain hemorrhage as well as radiologists?
October 22, 2019 -- An artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm was able to accurately identify acute intracranial hemorrhage on head CT scans and even find some tiny hemorrhages that could be overlooked by radiologists, according to research published online October 21 in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Discuss Be mindful of respiratory, motion issues with GBCAs
October 22, 2019 -- A comparison of two gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) for hepatobiliary MRI shows that both agents can cause respiratory and motion issues for patients, but the issues were more pronounced with one of the agents, according to a study to be published in the November issue of Radiology.

Discuss ASRT: Radiographer vacancy rates on the rise
October 22, 2019 -- Vacancy rates for radiographers are on the rise, according to a new survey commissioned by the American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT). Vacancy rates in some imaging modalities are at the highest rate in 10 years, a sign that the labor market for technologists could be tightening.
