Titanium vs Carbon Coated Ceramic Breast Tissue Marker Clips

Rationale and Objectives Spectroscopy signal of a breast lesion may be disrupted by the presence of metal from a biopsy marking clip. This study compares the size of magnetic resonance (MR) suscep...

Relationship between Heart Rate and Optimal Reconstruction Phase in Dual-source CT Coronary Angiography

Rationale and Objectives To evaluate reconstruction image quality at the systolic and diastolic cardiac phases and determine the optimal phase for reconstruction according to heart rate when using...

Quantitative Measurement of Bleomycin-induced Lung Fibrosis in Rabbits Using Sequential in vivo Regional Analysis and High-Resolution Computed Tomography

Rationale and Objectives To examine the feasibility of quantitative high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) findings to monitor the stage of bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis in rabbits by c...

Quantifying the Extent of Emphysema

Rationale and Objectives This study investigated what factors radiologists take into account when estimating emphysema severity and assessed quantitative computed tomography (CT) measurements of l...

Quantifying the E xtent of Emphysema

Computers can calculate faster than humans as well as beat the best players at chess and Jeopardy, but can they describe a picture and explain its meaning? With the advent of the computed tomograph...

Potential Dose Reduction of Optimal ECG-controlled Tube Current Modulation for 256-Slice CT Coronary Angiography

Rationale and Objectives The purpose of this study was to design an optimized heart rate (HR)-dependent electrocardiogram (ECG) pulsing protocol for computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA)...

Optimization of Time-to-peak Analysis for Differentiating Malignant and Benign Breast Lesions with Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced MRI

Rationale and Objectives The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of applying measures sensitive to time-to-peak ( T peak ) heterogeneity as indicators for malignancy on breast dyn...

Medicare Started in 1966

In the words of Congressman Wilbur Mills, the architect of Medicare, “it is a program just to pay the bills for elderly folks to doctors and hospitals for health services.” With the inclusion of M...

Lower Limb Vascular Disease in Diabetic Patients

Rationale and Objectives To retrospectively analyze the significance of 3.0-T contrast-enhanced (CE) magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) with calf compression in the lower limbs of diabetic patie...

Improved Hardware for Higher Spatial Resolution Strain-encoded (SENC) Breast MRI for Strain Measurements

Rationale and Objectives Early detection of breast lesions using mammography has resulted in lower mortality rates. However, some breast lesions are mammography occult, and magnetic resonance imag...
