Image IQ Quiz: Shortness of Breath and Chest Fullness in a 20-Year-Old Recovering from a Virus

FIRMM-pix, a brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) software module recently launched at the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (ISMRM) conference, reportedly employs visual biofeedback and gamification that coaches patients to stay still during brain MRI exams.

An interview with two experts to discuss newly released guidance for using standardized MRI protocols for patients with this condition.

The use of contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) was associated with more than double the risk of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) in patients with diabetes and an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) less than 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 in comparison to the use of non-contrast CT in this population.

Drs. Charles Liu and Jonathan Russin discuss the benefits and potential of fPACT, the alternative to functional MRI.

Powered by deep learning technology, Sonic DL reportedly facilitates the acquisition of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans at 12 times the speed of conventional MRI systems.

Whether it’s attempting to get appropriate clinical histories from referring physicians or getting a tech to split up a multiphasic contrast study into separate image series, consistently striving to fight the good fight for optimal image interpretation is worth the effort.
