Utilization management firms grow big business to little practical effect
October 1st 2006Ask any radiologist to name the fastest growing sectors of the diagnostic imaging industry, and you may get a variety of answers. Unquestionably, device manufacturers are reaping rewards from emerging imaging techniques, particularly new cardiac applications for CT and MR. And teleradiology companies are proliferating by filling the demand for nighttime and weekend teleradiology coverage.
Simple schema aids arthritis diagnosis
September 29th 2006Differential diagnosis of arthritic joint conditions and degenerative spinal disorders can be far from straightforward. Leading musculoskeletal radiologists at the European Congress of Radiology in Vienna showed how careful evaluation of imaging data can improve diagnostic accuracy.
Report from WCC: MRI can be safe in patients with pacemakers
September 18th 2006MRI performed at an unlimited specific absorption rate is safe in patients with some permanent pacemakers or implantable cardioverter/defibrillator (ICD) systems, as long as precautions are taken, according to a study from Israel.
MR technique speeds acquisition, improves contrast for amyloid plaque
September 15th 2006Jeffrey Luci, Ph.D., would be the first to admit he is having a busy year. Having attained a faculty position at Vanderbilt University at the end of his National Institutes of Health research fellowship, the former University of Iowa chemistry grad student is now immersed in preparations for his forthcoming wedding. The list of last-minute details may seem endless, but at least the ring is taken care of, thanks to his $1000 award from the RSNA.
MRI tops CT at detecting intraductal breast cancer
September 13th 2006MRI is better than multislice CT for determining if and how far breast cancer has spread into the breast ducts, and it should be used before patients receive breast conserving therapy, according to a study in the August issue of the American Journal of Roentgenology.
Report from WCC: MRI can be safe in patients with pacemakers
September 12th 2006MRI performed at an unlimited specific absorption rate is safe in patients with some permanent pacemakers or implantable cardioverter/defibrillator (ICD) systems, as long as precautions are taken, according to a study from Israel.
Preoperative brain mapping alters tumor surgery
September 8th 2006By pinpointing the motor and language areas of the brain with functional MRI, surgeons can target brain tumors more effectively, while reducing the risk of damaging important cognitive and motor processes, according to a study in the September issue of Radiology.
DTI digs deep into pediatric neurological development
September 1st 2006Diffusion-tensor and fiber tract reconstruction MR imaging can track white matter abnormalities that may affect children’s cognitive skills. University of Texas researchers say the new tool could help monitor brain development in pediatric patients.
