Diagnostic Value of ARFI (Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse) in Differentiating Benign From Malignant Breast Lesions

Rationale and Objectives The aim of this study was to correlate acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) imaging velocities with the pathology results and to evaluate the ability of ARFI in disting...

Diagnostic Accuracy of Noninvasive 64-row Computed Tomographic Coronary Angiography (CCTA) Compared with Myocardial Perfusion Imaging (MPI)

Rationale and Objectives Although multiple studies have shown excellent accuracy statistics for noninvasive angiography by coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA), most studies comparing ...

Crossing the Chasm(s) Demonstrating the Clinical Value of Hyperpolarized Gas MRI

The community of scientists and clinicians working to advance hyperpolarized (HP) gas magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has long believed that its ability to image pulmonary function three-dimension...

Creation and Validation of a Simulator for Neonatal Brain Ultrasonography

Rationale and Objectives Historically, skills training in performing brain ultrasonography has been limited to hours of scanning infants for lack of adequate synthetic models or alternatives. The ...

Contrast-enhanced Spectral Mammography

Rationale and Objectives Contrast-enhanced spectral mammography (CESM) uses full field digital mammography with the added benefit of intravenous contrast administration to significantly reduce fal...

A New Contrast Enhancement Protocol for Subtraction Coronary Computed Tomography Requiring a Short Breath-Holding Time

Rationale and Objectives We have developed a new contrast enhancement protocol for subtraction coronary computed tomography (SCCTA) requiring a short breath-holding time. In the protocol, test and...

Whole-Lesion Apparent Diffusion Coefficient-Based Entropy-Related Parameters for Characterizing Cervical Cancers

Rationale and Objectives This study aimed to develop whole-lesion apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC)-based entropy-related parameters of cervical cancer to preliminarily assess intratumoral hete...

Virtual Monochromatic Imaging in Patients with Intermediate to High Likelihood of Coronary Artery Disease

Rationale and Objectives We sought to explore the image quality and diagnostic performance of virtual monochromatic imaging derived from dual-energy computed tomography coronary angiography (DE-CT...

Using Hyperpolarized129 Xe MRI to Quantify the Pulmonary Ventilation Distribution

Rationale and Objectives Ventilation heterogeneity is impossible to detect with spirometry. Alternatively, pulmonary ventilation can be imaged three-dimensionally using inhaled 129 Xe magnetic re...

Use of a Machine-learning Method for Predicting Highly Cited Articles Within General Radiology Journals

Rationale and Objectives This study aimed to assess the performance of a text classification machine-learning model in predicting highly cited articles within the recent radiological literature an...
