Partnering with Engineers to Identify and Empirically Evaluate Delays in Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Rationale and Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of partnering with engineering students and critically examining the merit of the problem identification and analyses...

Parametric Histogram Analysis of Dynamic Contrast-enhanced MRI in Multiple Myeloma

Rationale and Objectives From dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging, it is known that microcirculation patterns in multiple myeloma differ depending on the infiltration pattern. The...

MDCT Necrosis Quantification in the Assessment of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Response to Yttrium 90 Radioembolization Therapy

Rationale and Objectives The purpose of this study is to evaluate the reproducibility and agreement of tumor necrosis quantification performed by two-dimensional and volumetric methods in a cohort...

Low-grade Bone Lesions in Survivors of Childhood Medulloblastoma/Primitive Neuroectodermal Tumor

Objectives and Rationale Medulloblastoma/primitive neuroectodermal tumor (MB/PNET) is the most common malignant tumor of the central nervous system (CNS) in children. MB/PNET survivors are at an i...

Loss of White Matter Microstructural Integrity Is Associated with Adverse Neurological Outcome in Tuberous Sclerosis Complex

Rationale and Objectives Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a genetic neurocutaneous syndrome in which cognitive and social-behavioral outcomes for patients vary widely in an unpredictable manner...

Left Atrial Volume Comparison of 2D and 3D Transthoracic Echocardiography with ECG-gated CT Angiography

Rationale and Objectives Left atrial volume (LAV) measurement by conventional two-dimensional (2D) transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) may be limited by the geometric model, by suboptimal definit...

Is Water Diffusion Isotropic in the Cirrhotic Liver? A Study with Diffusion-weighted Imaging at 3.0 Tesla

Rationale and Objectives Water molecule motion has been shown to be isotropic in healthy liver as assessed by diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). The purpose of this study was to investigate whether...

Impact of Ultra-early Coiling on Clinical Outcome after Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage in Elderly Patients

Rationale and Objectives The incidence of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage is increasing in the elderly as life expectancy increases. The purpose of this study was to analyze whether ultra-early...

Effect of Scan Time on Perfusion and Flow Extraction Product (K-Trans) Measurements in Lung Cancer Using Low-Dose Volume Perfusion CT (VPCT)

Rationale and Objectives To assess the effect of measurement time on blood flow (BF), blood volume (BV), and k-trans-values (flow extraction product) in patients undergoing volume perfusion comput...

Education Matters

In response to critics lodging complaints about the cost of higher education, Robert Hutchins, president of the University of Chicago from 1929 to 1945, once wrote, “If you think education is expen...
