Bone Suppression Software with Chest X-Ray Equivalent to Dual Energy Subtraction Imaging in the Detection of Potential Lung Cancer
New software considerably enhances the radiologists’ ability to detect potentially cancerous lung nodules in X-ray images, and may become a cost-effective option to dual energy subtraction imaging, according to two new studies. More...05 Jul 2012
Significant Increase Seen in Rate of Diagnostic Imaging, with Accompanying Radiation Exposure Hazards
Among six large, integrated healthcare systems in the United States between 1996 and 2010 there was a substantial increase in the use of sophisticated diagnostic imaging, including approximately a tripling of the use of CT and almost a quadrupling of the use of MRI, as well as a marked increase in estimated radiation exposure.
