Intraprocedural Transcatheter Intra-arterial Perfusion MRI as a Predictor of Tumor Response to Chemoembolization for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Rationale and Objectives To prospectively test the hypothesis that transcatheter intraarterial perfusion magnetic resonance imaging (TRIP-MRI) measured semiquantitative perfusion reductions during...

Imaging Features of Micropapillary DCIS

Rationale and Objectives The aim of this study was to describe the mammographic, sonographic, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of micropapillary ductal carcinoma in situ. Materials a...

How to Do Medicare

In some of these earlier Chronicles, I wrote about how the American College of Radiology (ACR) was successful in getting radiology defined as a medical service, and not just a hospital responsibili...

Evaluation of Hardware-related Geometrical Distortion in Structural MRI at 7 Tesla for Image-guided Applications in Neurosurgery

Rationale and Objectives Geometrical distortion is a well-known problem in structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), leading to pixel shifts with variations up to several millimeters. Because t...

Evaluation of Analgesic Effect of Equimolar Mixture of Oxygen and Nitrous Oxide Inhalation During Percutaneous Biopsy of Focal Liver Lesions

Rationale and Objectives Percutaneous liver biopsy for tumors performed under local anesthesia is still a painful procedure. The aim of this study was to evaluate the patient’s reaction and the an...

Effect of Segmental Bronchoalveolar Lavage on Quantitative Computed Tomography of the Lung

Rationale and Objectives With employment of both multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) and endobronchial procedures in multicenter studies, effects of timing of endobronchial procedures on quan...

Can Non-calcified Coronary Artery Plaques Be Detected on Non-contrast CT Calcium Scoring Studies?

Rationale and Objectives Coronary computed tomographic (CT) angiography has been shown to detect noncalcified coronary artery plaque. Depending on tissue composition, noncalcified plaque differs i...

Assessment of Synovitis in Erosive Osteoarthritis of the Hand using DCE-MRI and Comparison with that in its Major Mimic, the Psoriatic Arthritis

Rationale and Objectives To investigate the diagnostic value of high-resolution dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) for assessment of synovitis in erosive osteoarthritis...

A Comparison of Mean Displacement Values Using High b-Value Q-Space Diffusion-weighted MRI with Conventional Apparent Diffusion Coefficients in Patients with Stroke

Rationale and Objectives Q-space analysis using high b-value diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance (MR) data provides information on tissue microstructure in contrast to conventional MR imaging (M...
