ACR, ARRS seek partnership, possible merger
The American College of Radiology and the American Roentgen Ray Society are looking into collaborative efforts, possibly including a merger, according to ACR officials.
The American College of Radiology and the American Roentgen Ray Society are looking into collaborative efforts, possibly including a merger, according to ACR officials.
The potential relationship would seek to leverage the best services and offerings from both organizations to better meet the needs of radiologists and medical physicists, according to a statement released by the ACR May 20. ACR and ARRS leaders are evaluating the feasibility and scope of such collaboration.
The ACR Council passed Resolution 28F during the organization's 2008 Meeting and Chapter Leadership Conference in Washington, DC. The resolution makes minor adjustments to ACR bylaws that will allow this partnership process to move forward.
Changes outlined in the resolution will take effect only after a written memorandum of understanding regarding the collaboration is drafted and signed by the ACR and ARRS, the statement said.
Both organizations will advise members and radiology stakeholders regarding the status of the collaboration. The ACR and ARRS web sites will release further updates about the partnership plans.
MRI-Based AI Radiomics Model Offers 'Robust' Prediction of Perineural Invasion in Prostate Cancer
July 26th 2024A model that combines MRI-based deep learning radiomics and clinical factors demonstrated an 84.8 percent ROC AUC and a 92.6 percent precision-recall AUC for predicting perineural invasion in prostate cancer cases.
Breast MRI Study Examines Common Factors with False Negatives and False Positives
July 24th 2024The absence of ipsilateral breast hypervascularity is three times more likely to be associated with false-negative findings on breast MRI and non-mass enhancement lesions have a 4.5-fold likelihood of being linked to false-positive results, according to new research.
Can Polyenergetic Reconstruction Help Resolve Streak Artifacts in Photon Counting CT?
July 22nd 2024New research looking at photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) demonstrated significantly reduced variation and tracheal air density attenuation with polyenergetic reconstruction in contrast to monoenergetic reconstruction on chest CT.
