Pysz et al report the use of microbubbles, which target vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 and are designed to serve as a potential clinical diagnostic probe to identify tumor angiogenesis and to monitor the response to antiangiogenic treatments.
Risk stratification and appropriate consideration of diagnostic strategies alternative to pulmonary CT angiography, as the first-line and stand-alone technique, should guide clinical decision making in patients who are suspected of having pulmonary embolism.
The solution to commoditization lies in emphasizing consulting activities; radiology consulting should encompass superspecialized advice with clinical competence, involvement in primary care, and participation in technology innovation.
We need to embrace the change that globalization is bringing and actively join in the discussion as we seek ways to adapt ourselves and our training programs to it.
By combining quantitative biomarker data from a number of imaging techniques one may begin to understand how novel therapies affect tumor cells and tissue microenvironments.
We showed that intrinsic angiogenesis (total hemoglobin concentration) contrast holds promise as an adjunct to diagnostic mammography and US for distinguishing early-stage invasive breast cancers from benign lesions.

OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this work was to show the radiologic signs named after weapons and munitions along with their military counterparts to help radiologists recognize these signs, which will allow confident interpretation and diagnosis. CONCLUSION. Numerous pathologic conditions have classic radiologic manifestations that resemble weapons and ammunitio […]
OBJECTIVE. We will illustrate the imaging features of gastrointestinal and nongastrointestinal mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma and their correlation with histopathologic findings. The radiologic features to distinguish gastrointestinal MALT lymphoma from other types of lymphomas will also be described. CONCLUSION. Differences in clinical be […]
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of our study was to evaluate whether a reduced volume of iodinated contrast material for pulmonary CT angiography (CTA) using a low peak kilovoltage (kVp) technique yields equivalent opacification in all vessels. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Four hundred fifty-two consecutive pulmonary CTA patients (265 women and 187 men; age range, 18 […]
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical significance of multiple focal pure ground-glass opacities (GGOs) on high-resolution CT images of patients with lung cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS. The cases of 23 patients with proven lung cancer and associated multiple focal pure GGOs on high-resolution CT images were retrospectively reviewe […]
OBJECTIVE. The objective of this article is to show how MRI findings can be used to differentiate Takotsubo cardiomyopathy from acute coronary syndrome. CONCLUSION. Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is a disorder that mimics acute coronary syndrome. MRI can show not only edema in the ventricular wall, which is diffuse and without arterial territory distribution, but […]
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of our study was to determine whether there is a relationship between renal cortical thickness or length measured on ultrasound and the degree of renal impairment in chronic kidney disease (CKD). MATERIALS AND METHODS. From October to December 2007, 25 patients (13 men and 12 women, mean age 73 years) were identified who had CKD but we […]
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this investigation was to assess workflow for medical imaging studies, specifically comparing liver and knee MRI examinations by use of the Lean Six Sigma methodologic framework. The hypothesis tested was that the Lean Six Sigma framework can be used to quantify MRI workflow and to identify sources of inefficiency to target for sequ […]
OBJECTIVE. The diagnosis of denervation injury as a cause of shoulder pain is conventionally based on clinical findings and electrophysiologic studies. MRI has an important role in identifying direct and indirect signs of neuropathy and can confirm the presence of nerve compression, depict space-occupying lesions, and exclude other intrinsic lesions of the s […]
