Key MRI Patterns for Diagnosing Inflammatory Brain Stem Lesions
July 16th 2022In an award-winning presentation at the European Congress of Radiology (ECR), researchers from the Hospital Universitario Basurto in Spain reviewed key neuroimaging findings on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for a variety of inflammatory lesions of the brain stem.
New Study Says Five Out of Eight Face Masks Are 'MRI Unsafe'
July 11th 2022In their testing of eight commercially available filtering face piece (FFP3) respirators commonly utilized during the COVID-19 pandemic, researchers deemed that five of the face masks that contained ferromagnetic materials were unsafe to use in and around magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) devices.
Study Confirms Higher Accuracy of MRI Over Emerging PSMA PET/CT for Diagnosing Prostate Cancer
July 8th 2022Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) had better accuracy than prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) “for detecting any grade of prostate cancer,” according to new study findings presented at the European Association of Urology Annual Congress (EAU22) in Amsterdam.
Eight Perspectives from Radiology Organizations on the Overturning of Roe v. Wade
July 2nd 2022In recently issued statements, different radiology organizations have offered perspectives on the physician-patient relationship and the potential impact of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.
MRI Study Reveals Increased Brain Changes in Postmenopausal Women
July 1st 2022Emerging research with brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans shows that postmenopausal women have higher amounts of white matter hyperintensities that may lead to elevated risks for cognitive dysfunction and stroke.
New Study Shows Link Between COVID-19 and Elevated Risks for Neurological Disorders
June 25th 2022Emerging research showed that patients with COVID-19 had 3.5 times the risk for developing Alzheimer’s disease and 2.6 times the risk for Parkinson’s disease in comparison to those who did not have COVID-19.
