CONCLUSION: Our findings support the cautious use of ED physicians' CT scan interpretations for patients' management. Ideally, the ED physicians should utilize a real-time radiologist interpretation in critical patients. This collaboration will result in better patient management....
AiCE had significantly lower noise in the erector spinae muscles and liver parenchyma, and higher CNR in the liver parenchyma than AIDR 3D (P<0.001). Results for image noise varied when analyzed per BMI category. For all...
As with all CTA, there is not as yet any standardization of coronary artery CTA technique or interpretation. The following discussion reflects only one approach. There are, however, American Heart Association and American College of Cardiology guidelines on conventional angiography interpr...
CONCLUSIONS: IMPeTUs criteria proved highly reproducible and could therefore be considered as a base for harmonizing PET interpretation in multiple myeloma. A prospective clinical validation of IMPeTUs criteria is underway. 展开 关键词: Multiple myeloma FDG PET/CT Interpretation criteria Standardization ...

history of known vascular malformation or vascular mass within the brain, known amyloid angiopathy according to Boston’s criteria, and the presence of severe artifacts in NCCT or CTA making the interpretation challenging and incomplete imaging protocol. A total of 334 patients were enrolled in this...
The database did not contain all variables that may be of importance. We had no information about timing of neurosurgical consultation as it was only recorded whether a neurosurgeon was present in the ED during the workup. This invites a cautious interpretation of difference in the proportion of...
The interpretation of CT findings and differentiation from AOM, which can metastasize, are clinically important. Recognition and understanding the spectrum of CT findings of female pelvic TB can aid in the diagnosis. In this study, we retrospectively reviewed the clinical and CT features of 32 ...
Recent epidemiological results suggested an increase of cancer risk after receiving computed tomography (CT) scans in childhood or adolescence. Their interpretation is questioned due to the lack of information about the reasons for examination. Our objective was to estimate the cancer risk related to ...
However, we decided to rate the presence of radiographic abnormalities on the basis of radiology reports, which allow more accurate assessment of the diagnosis given to the patients than a standardized and independent interpretation. Conclusion This study reported that HRCT scan screening is associated ...
