Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) can help radiologists detect more architectural distortion (AD) lesions than 2D mammography alone, according to a new study published in Radiology.

Measuring visceral fat area via CT could help stratify prognosis for women with renal cell carcinoma (RCC), and radiographic analyses could further guide therapeutic and surgical decisions, according to a study published in Radiology’s March edition.

Two students from Misericordia University in northeast Pennsylvania have been selected to represent the state at the 2018 American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT) Student Leadership Development Program in Las Vegas.

High-dose radiotherapy doesn’t improve survival in men with intermediate-risk prostate cancer, but it can improve biochemical control and rates of tumor metastasis, researchers reported of the first large-scale study to examine whether hiked radiation doses are linked to improved survival.

Six years ago, the non-invasive cardiovascular lab (NICL) at 540-bed St. Dominic Hospital in Jackson, Mississippi, faced something of an uncertain future. The rules for maintaining accreditation, set by intersocietal accreditation commissions, require that all vascular exams get interpreted within 48 hours of image acquisition. For cardiac exams, the read must wait no longer than 24 hours.

Chinese researchers announced this week that, using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), they have been able to identify abnormal connections between brain networks in preschoolers with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). 

The variables involved in minimizing radiation exposure during CT imaging are many—but simply placing a patient off-center can result in a surface dose increase of 12 to 49 percent and negatively impact image quality.

Patient and public awareness of interventional radiology (IR) remains low, according to a study published in the Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology.
