Non-Invasive MR Elastography Could Provide Alternative to Liver Biopsy in Obese Patients

Three-dimensional MR elastography (MRE) scans have the potential to simultaneously assess liver fibrosis and inflammation. However, existing 3D MRE methods present several challenges, such as multiple sequences, each requiring the patient to hold their breath, which can reduce the precision of the liver’s geometric alignment and hinder clinical acceptance. This issue is exacerbated in obese patients, as their high body mass index (BMI) can interfere with the penetration of mechanical waves. To address these challenges, researchers have investigated a new approach that involves a single breath-hold, which obese patients can more easily tolerate and reproduce. More...

New Tool Images Uterine Contractions in Real Time to Identify High-Risk Pregnancies

Researchers have developed new imaging technology that can create 3D maps of uterine contractions in real-time, displaying both the magnitude and distribution of the contractions across the entire surface of the uterus during labor. Identifying the specific type of uterine contractions that cause premature birth or labor arrest can aid researchers in developing methods to slow or prevent the onset of these contractions. More...
