Volume wins again in epidural spine metastases
By
Eric Barnes
Wednesday, November 30 | 3:20 p.m.-3:30 p.m. | SSM18-03 | Room N229Epidural spine metastases are defined as a radiologic critical finding because any delay in reporting may result in substantially increased morbidity. But how can imaging be optimized to find more of them?

Time of detection matters in lung nodule malignancy
By
Eric Barnes
Wednesday, November 30 | 3:00 p.m.-3:10 p.m. | SSM05-01 | Room S404ABIn a study that analyzed the risk of malignancy of screen-detected solid lung nodules, researchers from the Netherlands found that nodule size remains by far the most important predictor of malignancy. But when a nodule is discovered also matters.

Perfusion CT predicts treatment response, survival in HCC
By
Eric Barnes
Wednesday, November 30 | 10:30 a.m.-10:40 a.m. | SSK06-01 | Room E353ACT perfusion imaging offers early biomarkers for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients being treated with the kinase inhibitor sorafenib, helping doctors quickly determine who will survive longer and who is not being helped by the drug, say researchers in Japan.

Myocardial fat offers protective shield
By
Eric Barnes
Tuesday, November 29 | 3:40 p.m.-3:50 p.m. | SSJ04-05 | Room S504ABMyocardial fat on CT images has long been thought to be a bad thing, so researchers in New York City were surprised to find just the opposite in 1,000 patients: enhanced survival and potentially a readjusted risk profile.

Technique uses CT to assess subchondral bone density
By
Eric Barnes
Tuesday, November 29 | 11:30 a.m.-11:40 a.m. | SSG09-07 | Room E450BResearchers from Switzerland have found a way to evaluate bone mineral density in the subchondral bone using high-resolution CT, paving the way to better understanding of osteoarthritis, leading to treatment or a cure.

Organ-based dose modulation tames a high-dose CT exam
By
Eric Barnes
Tuesday, November 29 | 11:30 a.m.-11:40 a.m. | SSG04-07 | Room E352An organ-based dose modulation system enables reduction of CT liver doses by one-quarter or more, with no reduction in image quality, say researchers from France.

Study measures accuracy of iodine quantification
By
Eric Barnes
Tuesday, November 29 | 11:20 a.m.-11:30 a.m. | SSG12-06 | Room S403BThe accuracy of iodine quantification is becoming a critical question as researchers rely increasingly on dual-energy CT to quantify the composition of scanned materials. Researchers tested three different scanners to find out how well they do the job.

Spectral photon-counting CT, k-edge imaging boost stent analysis
By
Eric Barnes
Tuesday, November 29 | 11:00 a.m.-11:10 a.m. | SSG12-04 | Room S403BIn this presentation, researchers will discuss the added value of spectral CT and k-edge imaging in the assessment of stented vessels to reduce artifacts.

Kids breathe freely without sedation for high-resolution chest CT
By
Eric Barnes
Tuesday, November 29 | 9:00 a.m.-9:10 a.m. | RC313-03 | Room N228Squirming children are a constant concern in the CT suite, but researchers from Lille, France, scanned more than 300 children with a low-dose free-breathing protocol that delivered excellent image quality.

Multispectral CT offers new clarity for cardiovascular imaging
By
Eric Barnes
Tuesday, November 29 | 7:15 a.m.-8:15 a.m. | SPSH30 | Room E352This Tuesday Hot Topic Session will offer a comprehensive review of the technical and clinical aspects of various types of spectral CT imaging, including established techniques such as dual-source and rapid kVp switching, and emerging techniques such as split-beam CT, spectral detector CT, and photon counting.

The dubious value of lead aprons
By
Eric Barnes
Monday, November 28 | 3:10 p.m.-3:20 p.m. | SSE21-02 | Room S403AAre lead aprons really helpful for reducing scatter radiation from CT? A study from the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, casts doubt on the utility of shields placed outside the scan region.

Deep learning can detect osteoporosis on CT exams
By
Erik L. Ridley
Monday, November 28 | 12:15 p.m.-12:45 p.m. | IN212-SD-MOA3 | Lakeside, IN Community, Station 3Artificial intelligence based on deep-learning techniques may be able to automatically screen for osteoporosis in routine abdominal CT exams, according to this poster presentation.
