In this podcast episode, Dr. Shalom Kalnicki, from Montefiore and Albert Einstein College of Medicine, discusses the disparities minority patients face with cancer screenings and what can be done to increase access during the pandemic.

Irrespective of differences with radiation dosing and tube voltage, obtaining CT-derived fat fraction from photon-counting detector CT provides consistently comparative results to MRI-derived proton density fat fraction assessment, according to new research.

For patients who had neuroradiological trauma CT scans, researchers noted no significant visual differences between deep learning denoising at 25% mAs and iterative reconstruction at 100% mAs.
