Radiology trainees win over trauma surgeons with immediate reads

When trained with high-fidelity simulation, junior radiology residents can master the discipline of reading whole-body CTs right at the trauma scanner—and doing so with high diagnostic accuracy, work speed and interpretive confidence.

5 avenues along which the 10-year-old Society of Abdominal Radiology is advancing

Did you know the SAR formed when the Society of Gastrointestinal Radiologists merged with the Society of Uroradiology?

Emerging imaging technologies boosted by COVID research

As the field of radiology research adapted to withstand the pandemic’s challenges, it morphed in some decidedly beneficial ways.

Novel 3D lumbar MRI speedy as well as suitable

Researchers at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City have demonstrated fast but fine 3D lumbar image acquisition on MRI using deep learning image reconstruction.

Do radiology residents delay ED turnaround times—or speed them? Answer depends on experience, modality, culture

When resident teams included experienced fourth-year trainees, the resident/attending pairs cut overall median report turnaround times by seven minutes versus attending-only efforts.

Cross-organ imaging illuminates the heart-brain-liver axis

A population-level study featuring multi-organ MRI has confirmed that problems in any of three major organs—the heart, brain or liver—tend to co-occur with unfavorable findings in either or both of the other two.

Around the web

After reviewing years of data from its clinic, one institution discovered that issues with implant data integrity frequently put patients at risk. 

Prior to the final proposal’s release, the American College of Radiology reached out to CMS to offer its recommendations on payment rates for five out of the six the new codes.

“Before these CPT codes there was no real acknowledgment of the additional burden borne by the providers who accepted these patients."
