For pediatric patients with congenital heart disease, new research showed that cardiac PCCT yielded comparable signal-to-noise and contrast-to-noise ratios to energy-integrating detector CT at over a 43 percent lower dose length product.

In a second part of a new podcast episode on recently published research on projected radiation-induced cancers from computed tomography (CT) scans, Mahadevappa Mahesh, MS, Ph.D., and Joseph Cavallo, M.D., offer current perspectives on cardiac CT dosing, AI advances and the importance of teamwork in ensuring appropriate dosing for CT.

Preoperative use of contrast-enhanced cone-beam breast CT has over a 96 percent sensitivity for predicting nipple-areolar complex involvement in cases involving early-stage breast cancer, according to a new study.

In a new podcast, Mahadevappa Mahesh, MS, Ph.D., and Joseph Cavallo, M.D., share their perspectives on recently published research looking at projections for future radiation-induced cancers from computed tomography (CT) scans.

The AI-powered Viz Subdural Plus reportedly provides automated measurements and labeling of subdural collections, including subdural hemorrhages (SDHs), based on non-contrast CT scans.

Researchers also noted a greater than 30 percent increase in treatment management changes resulting from the use of CT-based adjunctive AI to detect lung metastases in colorectal cancer patients.
