CT Imaging Study Finds Vaccination Reduces Risk of COVID-19 Associated Pulmonary Embolism
A retrospective review that examined the incidence of pulmonary embolism (PE) in COVID positive patients during computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) exams in the emergency department (ED) has found that vaccination reduces the risk of COVID-19 associated PE. More...03 May 2022
Study Reveals Value of Using Both Human and AI in Detecting Breast Cancer
Radiologists and artificial intelligence (AI) systems yield significant differences in breast-cancer screenings, according to a new study, revealing the potential value of using both human and AI methods in making medical diagnoses. More...29 Apr 2022
Combination of DBT and Standard Mammography Detects Breast Cancer More Often Than Mammography Alone
A new study on enhanced screening technology involving almost 100,000 women has found that breast cancer can be detected more often by combining digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) with synthetic 2D mammography than by standard mammographies. More...28 Apr 2022
Visual Ordinal CAC Assessment on Chest CT Found to Have High Diagnostic Performance
A new study has found that visual ordinal coronary artery calcium (CAC) assessment on both contrast-enhanced and non-contrast chest CT has high diagnostic performance, prognostic utility, and interobserver agreement. More...28 Apr 2022
Algorithm Analyzes Head CT Scans and Clinical Data to Predict Outcomes in TBI Patients
A team of scientists has developed a prognostic model that is the first to use automated brain scans and machine learning to inform outcomes in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). More...27 Apr 2022
Novel Imaging Technique Could Improve Cancer Screening in Areas with Limited Access to PET Scans
Positron emission tomography (PET) is one of the most widely used diagnostic tools in cancer care. However, PET scans can be hard to access in developing countries and rural areas. Now, researchers have begun testing a new technology that could provide a cheaper, faster imaging approach for areas where access to PET scans is limited. More...14 Apr 2022
