Photon-counting CT advances identification of pancreatic cystic lesions

Pancreatic cystic lesions – indicating an increased risk of pancreatic cancer – are an occasional incidental finding in routine computed tomography (CT) abdominal imaging. New research suggests that the superior image quality of photon-counting CT (PCCT) can help detect more of these lesions. At the RSNA annual meeting, an expert outlined the benefits and limitations of the imaging technique for early detection.

Nuclear cardiology – a nuclear perspective on matters of the heart

Nuclear cardiology is a specialised field in nuclear medicine that evaluates the heart function to help diagnosing conditions such as coronary artery disease and to assess treatment efficacy, whilst minimising invasive procedures like biopsies. More recently, clinicians have increasingly opted for nuclear imaging over endomyocardial biopsy to diagnose cardiac amyloidosis, allowing for earlier…

Article • Pioneering women in medical imaging informatics: Katherine P. Andriole

A journey from the cradle of digitization to the dawn of AI in radiology

Medical imaging has come a long way in the past four decades: Advances have been made in the digitization of images, but also towards more gender equality in a once male-dominated field. We talked with Katherine P. Andriole, Ph.D., a leading expert and one of the first women to enter the field, about the evolution of medical imaging informatics, experiences she has had, and her advice to those…
