In healthcare, efficiency and patient-centred care stand as pillars for institutions aiming to deliver optimal services. In radiology this means faster access to medical imaging rather than being referred to other locations, speeding up turnaround time and improving accuracy to reduce the need for additional imaging exams. Duly Health and Care in the Chicago suburbs...

The Radiological Society of North America 2023 meeting is the epicentre for unveiling the latest innovations in computed tomography. Large vendors launched four new workhorse CT systems at the meeting and new technologies, especially in artificial intelligence and remote tech assistance, were shown by all CT exhibitors.

Placing prompts in the electronic health record, reminding primary care physicians of patients’ potential eligibility for lung cancer screening, can increase the use of low-dose CT, according to a new analysis.

Concerning CT findings may be serving as a barrier to treating patients with low-risk pulmonary embolisms in cheaper outpatient settings, according to research published Wednesday in JAMA Network Open.

The typical chest CT patterns seen in COVID-19 patients were far less frequent in individuals infected with Omicron and in the vaccinated, a retrospective multicenter study from France showed.

Dual source CT scanners can eliminate the need for beta blockers to control heart rates during coronary CTA exams. In turn, this reduces the amount of time it takes to complete such scans, which is of particular interest for chest pain patients in emergency settings, note the authors of a new research paper published March...

The ACC/AHA 2021 Chest Pain Assessment Guidelines boosted coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) to a Class 1A level of clinical evidence and helped significantly boost interest in building or expanding cardiac CT programs in the past year. While Cardiac CTA does have a large amount of clinical study support, there are some gaps remaining yet...

An AI tool named “Sybil” was able to forecast both short- and long-term lung cancer risk based on a single low-dose CT (LDCT) scan, researchers reported.
