How does FDG-PET compare to whole-body MRI in lymphoma disease?
By Wayne Forrest
Sunday, November 28 | 11:15 a.m.-11:25 a.m. | SSA18-04 | Room S505ABItalian researchers will answer that question at RSNA 2010 in Chicago, when they present their study results showing that whole-body MRI is fast and feasible for staging and restaging lymphoma disease; however, the modality falls short in matching the accuracy of FDG-PET/CT.

Nonradiologists drive rapid growth in musculoskeletal ultrasound
By Brian Casey
Thursday, December 2 | 10:40 a.m.-10:50 a.m. | SSQ12-02 | Room E451AOne of the great things about ultrasound is that its portability and simplicity make it easy to use compared to other imaging modalities. But that might not be so great from a healthcare utilization perspective, according to researchers from Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia, who found that nonradiologists are utilizing ultrasound at a dramatically higher rate than radiologists.

Ultrasound-guided dry needling reduces pain from plantar fasciitis
By Brian Casey
Tuesday, November 30 | 3:30 p.m.-3:40 p.m. | SSJ16-04 | Room E451BIn this Tuesday afternoon session, U.K. researchers will discuss the effectiveness of ultrasound-guided dry needling to relieve pain in plantar fasciitis cases that have been resistant to more conservative treatment methods.

CT perfusion gauges sarcoma treatment response
By Eric Barnes
Sunday, November 28 | 11:25 a.m.-11:35 a.m. | SSA13-05 | Room E451BIn this scientific presentation, researchers from Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston will discuss their successful use of CT perfusion imaging to monitor the response to sarcoma treatment. Both tumor size and density differences were visible after antiangiogenic therapy for soft-tissue sarcomas.

CT unnecessary in most blunt trauma admissions
By Eric Barnes
Sunday, November 28 | 11:05 a.m.-11:15 a.m. | SSA05-03 | Room N227Blunt trauma patients admitted to emergency departments are routinely scanned with CT of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis. But are all those scans really necessary in the absence of serious signs of injury? No, say Noam Millo, MD, and colleagues from the University of Alberta in Edmonton.
