The University of Maryland Medical Center has selected Wam!Net’s data storage service to store and archive its medical images. The hospital averages 600 digital radiology exams per day, resulting in several gigabytes of data. The medical center previously archived images on removable disks that were manually filed and reinstated online for retrieval by radiology personnel. Wam!Net provides offsite long-term storage that can be accessed through standard PACS workstations.

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.
