Diabetes seems to hasten the loss of gray matter in the brains of Parkinson’s patients, and the effect is readily observable in the frontal lobes, where higher mental processes such as decision-making take place, according to a small study published online Feb. 10 in Academic Radiology. 

Recent neuroimaging studies show that the use of pot causes changes in the corpus callosum, the brain’s largest white-matter structure, although the physical effect probably isn’t associated with psychosis. However, that’s not necessarily to say the lesions, imaged in the studies with diffusion tensor MR tractography, don’t cause or contribute to other mental-health problems.

Working with fMRI scans, some MIT researchers have come up with an algorithm to show how music tickles the auditory cortex like no other type of sound can. 

CT colonography (CTC), the advanced alternative to standard optical colonoscopy, has seen growing adoption, is apparently preferred by patients, and while there’s continuing research on the questions of costs, some studies find it to be the most cost-effective option.

The market for 3D-printing technologies in the healthcare industry is expected to exceed $2.3 billion by the year 2020, according to a new report published online by Allied Market Research.

Diagnostic performance in radiological interpretation increases with experience, though expert-level visual search patterns appear to develop before expert diagnostic accuracy, according to results of a new study published in the journal Radiology.

After going in for neuro MR imaging, a self-described “maker” in Richmond, Va., has made a model of his own brain—in neon pink, no less.
