A team from Stanford University used virtual reality (VR) technology to turn CT scans into 3D images to help radiologists prepare to repair splenic artery aneurysms.

Interruptions don’t impact an on-call radiologist’s accuracy, according to a new study in the Journal of Medical Imaging, but they can increase time spent on each case.

The Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR) debuted the first virtual reality 360 (VR360) training video featuring interventional radiology being performed in practice during the SIR 2018 annual meeting in Los Angeles.

Radiologists can provide significant value by communicating the benefits and risks associated with radiation to the parents or guardians of pediatric patients, and a group of researchers provided numerous strategies for such communication in a new analysis for the Journal of the American College of Radiology.

Clinicians might be saved time and improve their diagnostic accuracy when deep learning is applied to echocardiography, according to a recent article from Cardiovascular Business (CVB) regarding this year's American College of Cardiology annual meeting in Orlando.

Diagnostic error remains a major setback to improving the quality of radiology and overall interpretation of imaging examinations. What consistently induces diagnostic error is a radiologist's cognitive bias, according to a recent article published in the American Journal of Roentgenology.

New research, published online March 13 in the Journal of the American Medical Association, shows that the U.S. spends twice as much on healthcare as any other high-income country in the world. Heavy utilization of imaging technology was a contributing factor.
