MR Fat Fraction Mapping

Rationale and Objectives To assess the performance, postprocessing time, and intra- and interobserver agreement of a simple magnetic resonance–based mapping technique to quantify liver fat. Mater...

Mean Thoracic Aortic Wall Thickness Determination by Cine MRI with Steady-State Free Precession

Rationale and Objectives To assess the validity and reliability of measuring mean aortic wall thickness (MAWT) of the ascending and descending aorta using cine steady-state free precession (SSFP) ...

Impact of Iodine Delivery Rate with Varying Flow Rates on Image Quality in Dual-Energy CT of Patients with Suspected Pulmonary Embolism

Rationale and Objectives To prospectively compare four contrast material injection protocols for dual-energy computed tomography (CT) pulmonary angiography (DE-CTPA) in patients with suspected pul...

Image Artifacts on Prostate Diffusion-weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Rationale and Objectives To identify the presence and extent of artifacts in prostate diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) and discuss tradeoffs between imaging at 1.5 T (1.5 T) ...

First-Pass CT Perfusion in Small Peripheral Lung Cancers

Rationale and Objectives To evaluate the effect of the temporal interval (TI) between scan acquisitions on the radiation dose and vascular parameters of computed tomography perfusion (CTP) in smal...

FDG-PET/CT Characterization of Adrenal Nodules

Purpose To determine interreader agreement and diagnostic accuracy across varying levels of reader experience using qualitative and quantitative methods of evaluating adrenal nodules using ( 18 F...

Essentials of Nuclear Medicine remains, through its 6th edition, the best single resource for nuclear medicine with broad coverage of nuclear medicine applications, physics, instrumentation, qualit...

Engaging Medical Students as Coeducators

We often think of medical students strictly as the recipients of education. In doing so, we operate with several questionable assumptions. One is that medical students are too busy studying for exa...

Diagnostic Performance Evaluation of a Computer-Aided Simple Triage System for Coronary CT Angiography in Patients with Intermediate Risk for Acute Coronary Syndrome

Rationale and Objectives Given the significance of coronary artery disease as the most important socioeconomic health care problem in the Western World, the application of computer-aided simple tr...

Clinical Value of T2-Weighted Imaging Combined with Diffusion-Weighted Imaging in Preoperative T Staging of Urinary Bladder Cancer

Rationale and Objectives To prospectively assess the incremental value of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) combined with T2-weighted images (T2WI) in determining the T stage of bladder cancer by u...
