Whole-body MRI falls short in axial spondyloarthritis cases
By Wayne Forrest
Tuesday, December 3 | 3:50 p.m.-4:00 p.m. | SSJ17-06 | Room E451BA new study by Swiss researchers questions the efficacy of whole-body MRI after the modality falsely classified approximately 25% of healthy subjects as having axial spondyloarthritis.

MR arthrograms provide useful data for labral tear surgery
By Wayne Forrest
Tuesday, December 3 | 3:20 p.m.-3:30 p.m. | SSJ16-03 | Room E451APre- and post-MR arthrograms of the shoulder are useful in identifying unstable labral tears and provide valuable information for presurgical planning, according to a study to be presented in this afternoon RSNA 2013 session.

MRI improves early diagnosis of tuberous sclerosis complex
By Wayne Forrest
Tuesday, December 3 | 3:00 p.m.-3:10 p.m. | SSJ19-01 | Room N228In this scientific presentation, researchers will discuss how fetal MRI can detect cerebral lesions in fetuses with tuberous sclerosis complex and should become a component of early diagnostic workup in suspected cases.

MRI can uncover cortical venous injury in abusive head trauma
By Wayne Forrest
Monday, December 2 | 3:20 p.m.-3:30 p.m. | SSE21-03 | Room S102ABWith the help of MR venography and MRI, researchers from Nemours/Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children hope to increase awareness and improve the detection of abusive head trauma and intracranial venous injury.

MRI illustrates how intense exercise changes the heart
By Wayne Forrest
Monday, December 2 | 10:40 a.m.-10:50 a.m. | SSC02-02 | Room S502ABGerman researchers used MR images to show how a relatively short period of high-intensity training in men can greatly influence left and right ventricular characteristics and function.

Novel 3D MRI technique could improve brain metastases detection
By Wayne Forrest
Monday, December 2 | 10:30 a.m.-10:40 a.m. | SSC11-01 | Room N226Japanese researchers have developed a new 3D MR technique that can simultaneously acquire images with and without blood vessel suppression and may help detect brain metastases.

DWI, PET/CT help in rectal cancer detection and assessment
By Wayne Forrest
Sunday, December 1 | 12:05 p.m.-12:15 p.m. | SSA07-09 | Room E450AItalian researchers have found that diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI-MRI) offers higher specificity than PET/CT in rectal cancer patients, especially in cases of active inflammatory tissue, but PET/CT has a higher sensitivity and can detect distant metastasis.

DWI-MRI is key for rectal cancer patient follow-up
By Wayne Forrest
Sunday, December 1 | 11:55 a.m.-12:05 p.m. | SSA07-08 | Room E450ADiffusion-weighted MRI (DWI-MRI) can be useful for following up patients after primary rectal cancer surgery or nonsurgical treatment, and it can help detect locally recurrent disease.

DCE-MRI appears accurate for soft-tissue tumor biopsy
By Wayne Forrest
Sunday, December 1 | 11:45 a.m.-11:55 a.m. | SSA14-07 | Room E451BA preliminary study by Austrian researchers indicates that soft-tissue tumor biopsy can be performed accurately and safely using dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) 3-tesla MRI.

Endoscopy with MRI accurately assesses rectal cancer after chemoradiation
By Wayne Forrest
Sunday, December 1 | 11:45 a.m.-11:55 a.m. | SSA07-07 | Room E450ADutch researchers have achieved high accuracy by combining endoscopy, T2-weighted MRI, and diffusion-weighted MRI to assess response to chemoradiation in rectal cancer patients.

MRI sequences aid cancer detection in sarcoma patients
By Wayne Forrest
Sunday, December 1 | 11:05 a.m.-11:15 a.m. | SSA14-03 | Room E451BAdding functional MRI sequences to a routine scanning protocol increases specificity and could reduce unnecessary biopsies and anxiety for sarcoma patients, according to researchers from Johns Hopkins University.
