How Low Can We Go in Contrast-Enhanced CT Imaging of the Chest?

Rationale and Objectives Dose reduction may compromise patients because of a decrease of image quality. Therefore, the amount of dose savings in new dose-reduction techniques needs to be thoroughl...

Free-breathing Pulmonary 1 H and Hyperpolarized 3 He MRI

Rationale and Objectives In this proof-of-concept demonstration, we aimed to quantitatively and qualitatively compare pulmonary ventilation abnormalities derived from Fourier decomposition of free...

Evaluation of an Interactive Science Publishing Tool

Rationale and Objectives Higher resolution medical imaging platforms are rapidly emerging, but there is a challenge in applying these tools in a clinically meaningful way. The purpose of the curre...

Differentiation of Lung Cancers From Inflammatory Masses with Dual-Energy Spectral CT Imaging

Rationale and Objectives To investigate the value of dual-energy spectral computed tomography (DESCT) in the quantitative differentiation between pulmonary malignant masses and inflammatory masses...

Correlations Between Aortic Root Calcification and Coronary Artery Atherosclerotic Markers Assessed Using Multidetector Computed Tomography

Rationale and Objectives Atherosclerosis is a systemic process associated with arterial calcification in multiple vascular beds. This study investigated correlations between aortic root calcificat...

Comparison of CT Colonography with Conventional Colonoscopy in Patients with Ulcerative Colitis

Rationale and Objective Patients with ulcerative colitis require recurrent conventional colonoscopy (CC) to define the extent of the disease. Computed tomography (CT) colonography (CTC) can be use...

Automated Breast Volume Scanning Versus Conventional Ultrasound in Breast Cancer Screening

Rationale and Objectives To assess the diagnostic value of automated breast volume scanning (ABVS) versus conventional ultrasound (US) in breast cancer screening. Materials and Methods This stud...

When Quality Improvement Fails

Nearly all the published articles on quality improvement initiatives in radiology fall into one of two categories: articles outlining different approaches to quality improvement and articles descri...

Volume-based Response Evaluation with Consensual Lesion Selection

Rationale and Objectives Lesion volume is considered as a promising alternative to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) to make tumor measurements more accurate and consistent, wh...

Visual Search in Abdominopelvic CT Interpretation

Rationale and Objectives The objective of this study was to compare reader accuracy and time efficiency between coronal reformats of abdominopelvic computed tomography (CT) and axial images, by me...
