Film digitizer and PACS developer Lumisys received 510(k) clearance in May for ACR 2000, the company's new low-cost computed radiography reader (SCAN 5/13/98). The Sunnyvale, CA, company is currently field-testing the unit and plans to begin showing it to OEM clients later this year, according to Lumisys president Philip Berman. Lumisys is planning a formal introduction of ACR 2000 at this year's Radiological Society of North America meeting, Berman said.

In the latest episode of his “Interventional Radiology in Focus” series, Mina Makary, MD, discusses the evolution, research and pearls for ablation procedures, and emerging considerations for histotripsy in the realm of interventional oncology.
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.
Perspective and experience enable us to discern a reasonable explanation prior to boarding a rollercoaster of overreaction.
