Score another for electron-beam tomography (EBCT). The premium-end form of CT has been judged as effective in the detection of coronary artery disease as treadmill tests-with the added advantage of avoiding the stress to the body. University of Michigan researchers pooled data from nine studies, revealing that the two techniques have similar levels of reliability but finding that EBT is faster, easier, and more consistent in diagnosing CAD. The Michigan researchers drew their conclusions from a meta-analysis of the nine studies that used EBT as a diagnostic test, with coronary angiography as the reference standard.
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.
