CT beats fluoroscopy for Crohn's disease anomalies
CT can outperform fluoro-based enteroclysis, the current imaging standard for small bowel evaluation in patients with Crohn's disease, according to a study in the American Journal of Roentgenology.
CT can outperform fluoro-based enteroclysis, the current imaging standard for small bowel evaluation in patients with Crohn's disease, according to a study in the American Journal of Roentgenology.
The big advantage of CT enteroclysis is its ability to detect complications that exist outside normal parameters of the diagnosis and identification of Crohn's disease, according to principal investigator Dr. Johannes Sailer, a radiologist at the Medical University of Vienna.
Researchers evaluated with both techniques 50 symptomatic patients. Results were matched with surgery and follow-up (AJR 2005;185;1575-1581). CT enteroclysis proved better than conventional enteroclysis at detecting fistulae, abscesses, and conglomeration of small bowel loops. CT enteroclysis also proved equivalent to standard imaging in the detection of minimal mucosal changes.
Can Generative AI Facilitate Simulated Contrast Enhancement for Prostate MRI?
January 14th 2025Deep learning synthesis of contrast-enhanced MRI from non-contrast prostate MRI sequences provided an average multiscale structural similarity index of 70 percent with actual contrast-enhanced prostate MRI in external validation testing from newly published research.
Can MRI Have an Impact with Fertility-Sparing Treatments for Endometrial and Cervical Cancers?
January 9th 2025In a literature review that includes insights from recently issued guidelines from multiple European medical societies, researchers discuss the role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in facilitating appropriate patient selection for fertility-sparing treatments to address early-stage endometrial and cervical cancer.
