Interventional Stroke Therapy

Interventional stroke therapy is an overview of the field of stroke intervention and imaging with many short summaries and illustrations helpful for the novice and the advanced learner alike. Altho...

Improving Quantitative CT Perfusion Parameter Measurements Using Principal Component Analysis

Rationale and Objectives To evaluate the improvements in measurements of blood flow (BF), blood volume (BV), and permeability–surface area product (PS) after principal component analysis (PCA) fil...

Improvement of Automated Right Ventricular Segmentation Using Dual-bolus Contrast Media Injection with 256-slice Coronary CT Angiography

Rationale and Objectives To investigate the effect of dual-bolus contrast media injection (dual-CM) on the accuracy of automated right ventricular (RV) segmentation on coronary computed tomography...

Fractal Analysis of CT Perfusion Images for Evaluation of Antiangiogenic Treatment and Survival in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Rationale and Objectives Tumor vascular heterogeneity is a recognized biomarker for cancer progression. Our purpose was to assess the tumor perfusion heterogeneity during antiangiogenic therapy in...

Education in Cultural Competency in Japan

Cultural competency can help radiologists and other radiology personnel provide better care to patients. This article illustrates this point with reference to Japanese culture. Cultural competency...

Early CT Findings to Predict Early Death in Patients with Traumatic Brain Injury

Rationale and Objectives Computed tomography (CT) plays a crucial role in early assessment of patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Marshall and Rotterdam are the mostly used scoring systems...

Dynamic Contrast-enhanced MR Imaging Features of the Normal Central Zone of the Prostate

Rationale and Objectives Evaluate qualitative dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics of normal central zone based on recently described central zone MRI feature...

Discerning Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer Disease from Normal Aging

Rationale and Objectives Differentiating mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer Disease (AD) from healthy aging remains challenging. This study aimed to explore the cerebral structural alte...

Detection of Prostate Calcification with Megavoltage Helical CT

Rationale and Objectives Prostate calcification is a noninvasive landmark for daily positioning of image-guided radiation therapy. However, detectability of prostate calcification with megavoltage...

Automated Lung Volumetry from Routine Thoracic CT Scans

Rationale and Objectives Today, lung volumes can be easily calculated from chest computed tomography (CT) scans. Modern postprocessing workstations allow automated volume measurement of data sets ...
