The Efficiency of PC-MRI in Diagnosis of Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus and Prediction of Shunt Response

Rationale and Objectives In this prospective study, we aimed to reveal the efficiency of phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (PC-MRI) in the diagnosis of idiopathic normal pressure hydroceph...

The Ductal Carcinoma In Situ (DCIS) Dilemma

Detecting, classifying (grading), treating, and managing ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), and other high-risk abnormalities (eg, atypical ductal hyperplasia [ADH]), of the breast remains an ever-ev...

Quantitative and Qualitative Assessments of Lung Destruction and Pulmonary Functional Loss from Reduced-Dose Thin-Section CT in Pulmonary Emphysema Patients

Rationale and Objectives Academic and clinical interest in reducing radiation from computed tomography (CT) examinations has increased, and the purpose of this study was to determine the capabilit...

New Compression Paddle for Wire Localization in Mammography

Rationale and Objectives Current wire localization compression paddles provide a limited access window with no compression in this window. We describe a new compression paddle that addresses these...
