MR Spectroscopy Reveals Early Diagnostic Insights into Alzheimer’s Disease
Investigators have developed a noninvasive brain imaging technique to measure specific brain chemical alterations, providing a signature of the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease from the hippocampal region of the brain. More...21 May 2012
Risk Factors for Contrast-Induced Nephrotoxicity Debated
Conflicting with current belief, a new study finds that patients with a history of diabetes are not one of the most at risk for contrast-induced nephrotoxicity. Instead, the study revealed that patients with a history of renal disease, hypertension, and/or heart disease are more likely to suffer from renal insufficiency, putting them at greater risk for contrast-induced nephrotoxicity.

MR Enterography as Good or Superior to Conventional Imaging for Pediatric Crohn’s Patients
MR enterography is superior to CT enterography in detecting fibrosis in pediatric patients with Crohn’s disease and equally as good as CT enterography in diagnosing active inflammation, a new study revealed. More...09 May 2012
