Medical Imaging

Physicians utilize medical imaging to see inside the body to diagnose and treat patients. This includes computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), X-ray, ultrasound, fluoroscopy, angiography, and the nuclear imaging modalities of PET and SPECT.

Radiologists speak out against whole-body MRI screening in prominent editorial
Matthew S. Davenport, MD, MBA, and Scott B. Reeder, MD, PhD, made their plea to patients and providers in an opinion piece published May 6 in JAMA.
New Mexico company sets sights on bolstering the domestic supply of Mo-99
Eden Radioisotopes believes the facility will have the capacity to produce up to 50% of the global demand for Mo-99 once completed.
Certain strokes likely caused by artery widening, not blockages, new MRI data show
Imaging findings could explain why treatments involving aspirin and other antiplatelet drugs are not effective in some stroke patients.
Physicians chime in: Coronary plaque staging offers more precise cardiac patient management
As precision cardiology continues to evolve, the integration of advanced coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and AI-driven analysis is fundamentally changing how we assess and manage coronary artery disease (CAD). Here is a closer look at how Heartflow Plaque Staging is leveraging Total Plaque Volume (TPV) to stratify patient risk.
