Why use cardiac CT for children when MRI delivers no radiation?
"As a radiologist, I'm always worried about dose. I'm not going to study children with CT. There is no good argument why cardiac CT has to be done in a child. MRI is such a great technique for congenital heart disease.

"Young people who will have multiple exposures are at maximum risk for developing cancers later in life. I recently read an article in a cardiology journal about using CT for children to measure ventricular volume. There was no comment in the article about radiation dose. I think that is criminal."

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.
