More Powerful CT Scans Help Identify Clogged Arteries
An international team of researchers revealed strong evidence that the newer, more powerful 64-CT scans can easily and accurately identify people with major blood vessel disease and is nearly as accurate as invasive coronary angiography. More...12 Jan 2009
Closed Loop Imaging Research Trial To Integrate Data with Imaging Systems
A first-of-kind closed loop imaging research trial has been initiated with the intention of taking a holistic view of radiology workflow and integrate information systems together with imaging systems to remove inefficiency at all points within the imaging loop. More...31 Dec 2008
Neuroimaging Reveals Brain Reorganizes To Adjust for Loss of Vision
A new study has revealed that when individuals with macular degeneration focus on using another part of their retina to compensate for their loss of central vision, their brain seems to compensate by reorganizing its neural connections. More...23 Dec 2008
