In the second of a two-part podcast episode, Kalpana Kanal, PhD, and Mahadevappa Mahesh, PhD, discussed the possible impact of new research showing significant declines in CT radiation dosing over the past decade, future research directions and the potential for indication-based diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) in the future.

In the first of a two-part podcast episode, Kalpana Kanal, PhD, and Mahadevappa Mahesh, PhD, reviewed key findings from a study examining CT radiation dosing over the past decade and shared insights from their experience for ensuring optimal radiation dosing for CT scans.

The AI-powered NeuroDR software reportedly removes bone, soft tissue and veins from CTA scans and provides subsequent 3D MIP views and curved planar reformatted views of carotid and vertebral arteries.

Newly published preclinical research signals a substantial conceptual shift with a potential role of photon-counting CT in targeting specific biological processes.

While the P4 trial represents a landmark study on the use of CCTA guidance for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), there are pertinent caveats that warrant closer inspection.

New research found that the late arterial phase, which accounts for approximately 40 percent of CT radiation dosing in cases involving acute abdominal pain, offered no exclusive findings that had an impact on clinical care.

New research suggests CCTA may provide salient preoperative insights into planning for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) while facilitating similar outcomes as intravascular ultrasound guidance for target-vessel failure.
