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.

Scoring system outperforms standard radiology reports for predicting soft tissue tumor malignancy
The Soft-Tissue Tumor Reporting and Data System (ST-RADS) is an MRI framework that was designed to assess the risk of soft tissue tumors and help providers in managing the finding.
Mindfulness improves brain connectivity, MRI data show
Mindfulness-based stress reduction techniques combine meditation, bodily awareness exercises and yoga to temper stress and anxiety.
Stanford Medicine’s Department of Radiology inks partnership with Novartis
They’ll work to accelerate research and development around targets for radioligand imaging across a wide range of oncological applications.
New data on GBCA safety indicate risk of renal complications 'exceedingly low'
Nephrogenic systemic fibrosis is a serious, potentially fatal disease that progressively causes the skin and underlying tissues to harden.
Leading nuclear medicine organizations collaborate to streamline PET accreditation
The groups have jointly endorsed a unified framework “to standardize and harmonize quantitative PET imaging worldwide.”

Ultrasound device developed to treat neuropathy

Ultrasound device could be 'promising breakthrough' for treating diabetic neuropathy

Up to one-third of people with diabetes will develop a foot ulcer in their lifetime, and up to 20% will require some form of amputation as a result.

Socioeconomic disadvantage during childhood linked to altered brain structure later in life, MRIs show

New MRI data highlights associations between being born into disadvantaged communities and decreased volume of multiple areas in the brain. What’s more, these findings hold true despite educational attainment and late-life income.
