Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can be the result of several factors – both physical and psychological – and it has been the focus of several research efforts in recent years. Still, little is understood about symptoms of this condition. In a new study, investigators from the University of California at San Diego have determined that brain volume measurement has the potential to be an early biomarker. Look for details on their findings soon.

New MRI Research Explores Links Between Waist-to-Hip Ratio and Memory in Aging
March 13th 2025Researchers found that a higher waist-to-hip ratio in midlife was associated with higher mean diffusivity in 26 percent of total white matter tracts in the cingulum as well as the superior and inferior longitudinal fasciculus.
New Analysis Forecasts Substantial Cost Savings with the Use of Photon Counting CT for CCTA
March 8th 2025The use of ultra-high-resolution photon-counting CT in the evaluation of stable chest pain may significantly reduce follow-up tests and invasive coronary angiography (ICA) procedures, possibly resulting in millions in health-care cost savings, according to a cost-effectiveness analysis presented recently at the European Congress of Radiology.
