Researchers have established normal ranges of bone density in a part of the lumbar spine that is routinely imaged incidentally. Their primary aim is to equip radiologists with data that can be referred to when reading chest and abdominal CTs so the reader can opportunistically cross-screen for osteoporosis and check for compression fractures.

A study published in Radiology on March 26 suggests rapid short-pulse ultrasound is as effective—and maybe more so—than standard and long-pulse therapy for delivering drugs across the blood-brain barrier.

A U.S. radiologist with a long, distinguished career that launched after a remarkable move from Korea has caught the eye of a National Public Radio affiliate in Buffalo, New York.

The FDA announced Wednesday, March 27, that it is taking action to “modernize” breast cancer screening in the United States by amending the Mammography Quality Standards Act of 1992 with a new proposed rule.

Research presented at this year’s Society of Interventional Radiology conference in Austin, Texas, suggests virtual reality (VR) could be useful to interventional radiologists, improving treatments using real-time 3D images from inside a patient’s vessels.

Dense breast notification (DBN) laws that require recommending supplemental tests and cancer diagnosis after screening mammography boosted ultrasound use and cancer detection rates in a recent study of more than 1 million women across the U.S.
