In a healthcare environment where the costs of patient treatment are increasingly considered against possible benefit, a new study has found that US radiation oncologists are using fewer or less-aggressive radiation procedures on older women with early-stage breast cancer. More...07 Oct 2014
Whole Body, Micro-CT Scan Techniques Identify Probable Cause of English King’s Death
A team of forensic imaging investigators used whole body CT scans and micro-CT imaging of injured bones to analyze trauma to the English King Richard III’s 500-year-old skeleton carefully, and to determine which of the king’s wounds might have been fatal. Richard was the last English monarch to perish in battle. More...
