New research published in the British Medical Journal suggests that increasing high resolution imaging scans are contributing to more accidentally discovered abnormalities, or "incidentalomas," which are unrelated to a patient's diagnosis and are often benign.

Fujifilm pediatric suite of digital radiography solutions is available through Vizient group purchasing contract.

A recent investigation by Prostate Cancer U.K. has found half of men have been denied MRI scans to detect prostate cancer, according to a recent report by the Daily Mail.

“There is a very poor relationship between changes on MRI scans and the presence or absence of low back pain," Martin Underwood, MD, a general practitioner and a professor at Warwick Medical School, told The Guardian. “If you get into the business of treating disc degeneration because it has shown up on an MRI, the likelihood is that, in most of those people, it is not contributing to their back pain.”

Researchers have created a functional MRI (fMRI)-based analytical imaging method to detect and monitor blood vessel disorders and injuries in the brain without using invasive contrast agents.

Women who underwent initial mammography screening were more likely to seek out additional preventative measures—despite a positive or negative result—such as Pap smear, bone mass measurement or influenza vaccine services.

A new study has found that a form of liquid biopsy—circulating tumor cells (CTCs)—may be a key technique for creating a staging system to significantly alter the treatment of metastatic breast cancer (MBC).

Currently, unenhanced multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) is considered the gold standard for detecting kidney stones, however the modality also delivers the highest radiation dose among imaging methods.
