Advanced MRI Marks Breakthrough for Patients with Heart Stiffening Disease
An advanced form of cardiac MRI has for the first-time enabled clinicians to measure the effectiveness of chemotherapy in patients with ‘stiff heart syndrome’ - a life-limiting condition that occurs when plaques of protein called amyloid build up in heart muscle. More...31 Jul 2022

MRI Guides Surgical Decision-Making for Lateral Pelvic Lymph Node Metastases in Rectal Cancer
A new study has evaluated clinical and oncological outcomes following magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-directed surgical selection for lateral pelvic lymph node dissection after total neoadjuvant therapy. More...28 Jul 2022


CT Imaging Alone Found Noninferior to CT/MR Combo for Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients
A new study has found that a diagnostic imaging strategy of initial CT alone was noninferior to initial CT with additional MRI with regard to the clinical outcomes of death or dependence at hospital discharge or prevention of stroke or death at one year after discharge. More...25 Jul 2022

MRI Techniques Can Predict Future Sudden Cardiac Death
A new study has found that adults with abnormal heart metabolism are up to three times more likely to experience life-threatening arrhythmias (an irregular heart rhythm), and MRI techniques could be used to detect the condition and predict future sudden cardiac death. More...19 Jul 2022

Siemens Launches Its Smallest, Most Lightweight MR Scanner
A new High-V magnetic resonance (MR) scanner that combines a 0.55 Tesla (0.55T) field strength with deep learning technologies and advanced image processing broadens the range of MR clinical applications and provides customers with the inherent clinical benefits of a mid-field MR scanner.
