Teaching Management of Contrast Reactions

Rationale and Objectives Knowledge of the management of acute contrast reactions is lacking among radiologists. Training in the management of acute contrast reactions occurs at the investigators’ ...

Small Masses on Breast MR

Rationale and Objectives To evaluate outcome of magnetic resonance (MR)-detected biopsied breast lesions ≤5 mm by correlating imaging characteristics with pathology. Methods and Materials Instit...

Shape-based Assessment of Vertebral Fracture Risk in Postmenopausal Women Using Discriminative Shape Alignment

Rationale and Objectives Risk assessment of future osteoporotic vertebral fractures is currently based mainly on risk factors, such as bone mineral density, age, prior fragility fractures, and smo...

Retrospective Study on the Use of Different Protocols for Repeated Transarterial Chemoembolization in the Treatment of Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Purpose To evaluate local tumor control and survival rate after repeated transarterial chemoembolization using two different protocols in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. Materials and Me...

Radiology History Lives

One of the largest projects developed as part of the radiology centennial celebration in 1995 was a set of three history books–diagnosis, therapy, and physics. Those books featured chapters by more...

Radiation Safety and Medical Education

Rationale and Objectives This study assesses the effect on medical student understanding of a new radiobiology and radiation safety module in a fourth-year radiology clerkship. Materials and Meth...

Optimal Setting of Automatic Exposure Control Based on Image Noise and Contrast on Iodine-enhanced CT

Rationale and Objectives The aim of this study was to investigate variations in image noise and contrast using automatic exposure control (AEC) and different tube voltages on nonenhanced and iodin...

Measurement of Focal Ground-glass Opacity Diameters on CT Images

Purpose To evaluate interobserver agreement in regard to measurements of focal ground-glass opacities (GGO) diameters on computed tomography (CT) images to identify increases in the size of GGOs. ...

Lung Image Quality with 320-row Wide-volume CT Scans The Effect of Prospective ECG-gating and Comparisons with 64-row Helical CT Scans

Rationales and Objectives To evaluate the image quality of 320-row wide-volume (WV) computed tomography (CT) scans in comparison with 64-row helical scans for the lung. Materials and Methods The...

Impact of Ventricular Contrast Medium Attenuation on the Accuracy of Left and Right Ventricular Function Analysis at Cardiac Multi Detector-row CT Compared with Cardiac MRI

Rationale and Objectives The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of ventricular contrast medium attenuation on the accuracy of left ventricular (LV) and right ventricular (RV) function...
