A 3D-printing technique originated at Harvard University allows clinicians to produce highly detailed models of human anatomy in less than an hour—for a fraction of the cost and labor needed for a lower quality product, researchers reported in 3D Printing and Additive Manufacturing this month.

Currently, unenhanced multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) is considered the gold standard for detecting kidney stones, however the modality also delivers the highest radiation dose among imaging methods.

Konica Minolta Healthcare Americas is introducing a new worklist feature, Turn-Around-Time (TAT), for its Exa platform at the SIIM 2018 Annual Meeting May 31-June 2 in National Harbor, Maryland.

Novel technology known as phase-base amplified MRI is the first to capture the brain’s movement in conjunction with a heartbeat, opening the door for earlier detection of brain disorders and abnormalities, researchers from Stanford University and the University of Auckland announced this week.

New guidelines from the American Cancer Society suggest beginning colorectal cancer (CRC) screening at age 45, instead of the current recommendation starting at age 50.

A new imaging technique may assist researchers in understanding how the brain moves at rest and upon impact in real time, according to a news release published May 29 from the Stevens Institute of Technology in Hoboken, New Jersey.

Routine body imaging with FDG PET/MRI technology provides a wealth of diagnostic information for physicians to better manage oncology patients. A study recently published in the American Journal of Roentgenology, however, suggests that not additionally scanning the entire head may lead to missing brain abnormalities.

A team of researchers has published a free online tool to help clinicians personalize lung cancer screening decisions for patients. The team hopes to enhance patient understanding and attitudes related to cancer risk, while potentially avoiding unnecessary screenings.
