In the previous article, we discussed the considerations related to getting a CT scan, and this article will continue to discuss other issues related to getting a CT scan to help you get the most comprehensive information.
When will we know the results of the CT scan?
It usually takes about 24 ...
A CT (computed tomography) scan is an imaging test that helps health care providers detect disease and injury. It uses a series of X-rays and computers to create detailed images of bone and soft tissue. CT scans are painless and non-invasive. You may go to the hospital or imaging center for a CT ...
Recently, the new interventional operating room of Zhucheng Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital has been officially put into operation. A large digital angiography machine (DSA) has been added – the latest generation of bidirectional moving seven-axis floor-standing ARTIS one X angiograph...
Ulrich Medical, a German medical device manufacturer, and Bracco Imaging have formed a strategic cooperation agreement. This agreement will see Bracco distributing an MRI contrast media injector in the U.S. as soon as it becomes commercially available.
With the finalization of the distribution ag...
According to a recent meta-analysis, positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) and multi-parameter magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) provide similar detection rates in diagnosing prostate cancer (PCa) recurrence.
The researchers found that prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA...
The Honor-C1101,(CT single contrast media injector)&Honor-C-2101 (CT double head contrast media injector)are LnkMed‘s leading CT contrast media injectors. The latest phase of development for the Honor C1101 and Honor C2101 prioritizes user needs, aiming to enhance the usability of the C...
“Contrast media are critical to the added value of imaging technology,” Dushyant Sahani, MD, noted in a recent video interview series with Joseph Cavallo, MD, MBA.
For computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography computed tomography (PE...
To provide a comprehensive insight into the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in radiology, five leading radiology societies have come together to publish a joint paper addressing the potential challenges and ethical issues associated with this new technology.
The joint statement was is...
The significance of life-saving medical imaging in expanding global access to cancer care was underscored at a recent Women in Nuclear IAEA event held at the Agency’s headquarters in Vienna.
During the event, IAEA Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi, Uruguay’s Minister for Public Health...
Some people say that each additional CT, the risk of cancer increased by 43%, but this claim has been unanimously denied by radiologists. We all know that many diseases need to be “taken” first, but radiology is not only a “taken” department, it integrates with clinical de...
Most MRI scanners used in medicine are 1.5T or 3T, with the ‘T’ representing the unit of magnetic field strength, known as the Tesla. MRI scanners with higher Teslas feature a more powerful magnet within the machine’s bore. However, is bigger always better? In the case of MRI ma...
The development of modern computer technology drives the progress of digital medical imaging technology. Molecular imaging is a new subject developed by combining molecular biology with modern medical imaging. It is different from classical medical imaging technology. Typically, classical medical...
