Debates, Dialectic, and Rhetoric

Arguing is an art and essential to the functioning of our political and legal system. Moderated debates between residents are a useful educational vehicle to teach residents health economics and he...

Comparison of 3D Phase-Sensitive Inversion-Recovery and 2D Inversion-Recovery MRI at 3.0 T for the Assessment of Late Gadolinium Enhancement in Patients with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

Rationale and Objectives To compare free-breathing three-dimensional (3D) phase-sensitive inversion recovery (PSIR) with breath-holding two-dimensional (2D) IR sequences to determine which is bett...

Combined Diffusion-Weighted, Blood Oxygen Level–Dependent, and Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced MRI for Characterization and Differentiation of Renal Cell Carcinoma

Purpose To investigate a multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) approach comprising diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), blood oxygen–dependent (BOLD), and dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) M...

Assessing Splenomegaly

Rationale and Objectives To define systematic volumetric thresholds to identify and grade splenomegaly and retrospectively evaluate the performance of radiologists to assess splenomegaly in comput...

Tin-filter Enhanced Dual-Energy-CT

Objectives To measure and compare the objective image quality of true noncontrast (TNC) images with virtual noncontrast (VNC) images acquired by tin-filter–enhanced, dual-source, dual-energy compu...

The Emotional Wellness of Radiology Trainees

Rationale and Objectives Burnout is a complex phenomenon characterized by emotional exhaustion, social detachment, and feelings of low personal achievement. In this study, we aim to establish the ...

Registration-Based Metrics of Lung Function to Describe COPD

We have a very complex organ (the lung), and on it is superimposed a very complicated disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). How can we devise a simple value that gives us greater i...

Registration-Based Lung Mechanical Analysis of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Using a Supervised Machine Learning Framework

Rationale and Objectives This study evaluated the performance of computed tomography (CT)-derived biomechanical based features of lung function and the presence and severity of chronic obstructive...

Reader Variability in Breast Density Estimation from Full-Field Digital Mammograms

Rationale and Objectives Mammographic breast density, a strong risk factor for breast cancer, may be measured as either a relative percentage of dense (ie, radiopaque) breast tissue or as an absol...

Quantitative Measures Confirm the Inverse Relationship between Lesion Spiculation and Detection of Breast Masses

Objective To identify specific mammographic appearances that reduce the mammographic detection of breast cancer. Materials and Methods This study received institutional board review approval and...
