Feasibility and Acceptability of Conducting a Randomized Clinical Trial Designed to Improve Interpretation of Screening Mammography

Purpose To describe recruitment, enrollment, and participation in a study of US radiologists invited to participate in a randomized controlled trial of two continuing medical education (CME) inter...

Evaluation of the Effect of Computer-Aided Classification of Benign and Malignant Lesions on Reader Performance in Automated Three-dimensional Breast Ultrasound

Rationale and Objectives To investigate the effect of a newly developed computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system on reader interpretation of breast lesions in automated three-dimensional (3D) breast ...

Evaluating the Completeness of RadLex in the Chest Radiography Domain

Rationale and Objectives RadLex was developed to create a unified language for radiologists. Despite the large number of terms, little research has evaluated the degree to which RadLex contains te...

Evaluating RadLex and Real World Radiology Reporting

This issue of Academic Radiology contains a study by Woods and Eng describing their experience using chest radiography reports generated in usual clinical practice to estimate the completeness of R...

Dose-modified 256-MDCT of the Abdomen Using Low Tube Current and Hybrid Iterative Reconstruction

Rationale and Objectives To evaluate the performance of hybrid iterative reconstruction technique (h-IRT) on image quality (IQ) in abdominal dose-modified (DM) scans in phantom and in patients in ...

Distribution of Abdominal Aortic Calcium by Computed Tomography

Rationale and Objectives Abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) can be quantified using computed tomography (CT), but imaging planes are prescribed based on bony landmarks, so that individual variat...

Diffusion-weighted MR Imaging of Focal Liver Lesions in the Left and Right Lobes Would Visual Assessment and/or Normalization of ADC Be Useful for Overcoming Their Differences in ADC Values Resulting from its Locations?

We read the recent article entitled “Diffusion-weighted MR Imaging of Focal Liver Lesions in the Left and Right Lobes: Is There a Difference in ADC Values?” by Schmid-Tannwald et al with great inte...

Computer-aided Assessment of Regional Abdominal Fat with Food Residue Removal in CT

Rationale and Objectives Separate quantification of abdominal subcutaneous and visceral fat regions is essential to understand the role of regional adiposity as risk factor in epidemiological stud...

Comparison of Chest Dual-energy Subtraction Digital Tomosynthesis and Dual-energy Subtraction Radiography for Detection of Pulmonary Nodules

Rationale and Objectives To compare initial evaluations of chest dual-energy subtraction digital tomosynthesis (DES-DT) and dual-energy subtraction radiography (DES-R) for detection of pulmonary n...

Comparative Analysis of Data Collection Methods for Individualized Modeling of Radiologists' Visual Similarity Judgments in Mammograms

Rationale and Objectives We conducted an observer study to investigate how the data collection method affects the efficacy of modeling individual radiologists’ judgments regarding the perceptual s...
