Expectations Among Academic Clinicians of Inpatient Imaging Turnaround Time

Rationale and Objectives Imaging report turnaround time (RTAT) is an important measure of radiology performance and has become the leading priority in customer satisfaction surveys conducted among...

Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced MRI Kinetic Parameters as Prognostic Biomarkers for Prediction of Survival of Patient with Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Rationale and Objectives Tracer kinetic model selection for dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) data analysis influences its use as a prognostic biomarker. Our aim was t...

Comparison of the Diagnostic Performances of Three Techniques of ROI Placement for ADC Measurements in Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma

Rationale and Objectives To prospectively investigate and compare three techniques of region of interest (ROI) placement for apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measurements in patients with panc...

Breast Cancer Survivors

In this issue of Academic Radiology , authors Giess et al. evaluate screening breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in women previously treated for breast cancer. The authors retrospectively revi...

Balancing Radiation and Contrast Media Dose in Single-Pass Abdominal Multidetector CT

Rationale and Objectives As both contrast and radiation dose affect the quality of CT images, a constant image quality in abdominal contrast-enhanced multidetector computed tomography (CE-MDCT) co...

Accuracy of MRI-Targeted in-Bore Prostate Biopsy According to the Gleason Score with Postprostatectomy Histopathologic Control—a Targeted Biopsy-Only Strategy with Limited Number of Cores

Rationale and Objectives Accuracy of ultrasound-guided biopsy and Gleason score is limited, and diagnosis of insignificant cancer with Gleason score ≤6 is frequent when extended biopsy schemes are...

Utility of Interobserver Agreement Statistics in Establishing Radiology Resident Learning Curves During Self-directed Radiologic Anatomy Training

Rationale and Objectives The aim of the study was to ascertain the learning curves for the radiology residents when first introduced to an anatomic structure in magnetic resonance images (MRI) to ...

Results of the 2015 Survey of the American Alliance of Academic Chief Residents in Radiology

Rationale and Objectives The American Alliance of Academic Chief Residents in Radiology conducts an annual survey of chief residents in Diagnostic Radiology programs in North America. The survey s...

Reflective Writing

Rationale and Objectives Studies show that problems with interprofessional collaboration can result in adverse patient outcomes. These problems are common in the field of radiology, where technolo...

Reflective Practice

Rationale and Objectives Professionalism can be challenging to teach during residency training. We undertook this study to evaluate the impact of a case-based, reflective practice (RP) curriculum ...
