Shear Wave Elastography Applied for the Investigation of Tendon Material Properties

Ultrasound-based shear wave elastography (SWE) is emerging as a complementary imaging modality that can add information about the mechanical properties of tissue. In this issue Dirrichs, et al., pr...

Shear Wave Elastography (SWE) for the Evaluation of Patients with Tendinopathies

Rationale and Objectives Shear wave elastography (SWE) has been shown to be a powerful tool to estimate tissue stiffness. The aim of this study was to compare the diagnostic accuracy of SWE to tha...

Reducing Radiation Dose at Chest CT

Rationale and Objectives The study aimed to evaluate the performances of two iterative reconstruction (IR) algorithms and of filtered back projection (FBP) when using reduced-dose chest computed t...

Radiology in the Study of Bone Physiology

Rationale and Objectives In this article, we review the core principles of bone physiology alongside imaging examples that demonstrate such principles. Materials and Methods The core principles ...

Positive Predictive Value of Mammographic Lymphography in the Evaluation of Patients with Breast Cancer

Rationale and Objectives The study aimed to investigate the positive predictive value (PPV) of mammographic lymphography (MLG) for assessing malignant breast disease and lymphatic metastasis in pa...

Noise Reduction in Abdominal Computed Tomography Applying Iterative Reconstruction (ADMIRE)

Rationale and Objectives The study aimed to compare image quality of filtered back projection (FBP) and iterative reconstruction (advanced modeled iterative reconstruction, ADMIRE) in contrast-enh...

Improving Spleen Volume Estimation Via Computer-assisted Segmentation on Clinically Acquired CT Scans

Objectives Multi-atlas fusion is a promising approach for computer-assisted segmentation of anatomic structures. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy and time efficiency of multi...

Improving Breast Ultrasound Interpretation in Uganda Using a Condensed Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System

Rationale and Objectives This study aimed to determine whether a 2-day educational course using a condensed Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (condensed BI-RADS) improved the accuracy of Ug...

Executive Function Alternations of Breast Cancer Patients After Chemotherapy

Rationale and Objectives Chemotherapy has many side effects on breast cancer patients, including cognition and other brain functions impairment, which can be studied using functional magnetic reso...

Diagnostic Accuracy of Ultrasound, Contrast-enhanced CT, and Conventional MRI for Differentiating Leiomyoma From Leiomyosarcoma

Rationale and Objectives This study aimed to determine whether uterine leiomyoma can be distinguished from uterine leiomyosarcoma on ultrasound (US), computed tomography (CT), and/or magnetic reso...
