Image IQ Quiz: 43-Year-Old Male Presents for Suspected PE Evaluation

After a multivariable assessment including age and comorbidities, women with pulmonary embolism (PE) had a 48 percent higher risk of one-year mortality than men with PE, according to a new study involving over 33,000 patients.

Featuring enhanced low-dose image quality with motion-free images, the Revolution Vibe CT system reportedly facilitates improved diagnostic clarity for patients with conditions ranging from in-stent restenosis to atrial fibrillation.

Through AI-powered assessment of coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) scans, the CaRi-Plaque software may provide improved clarity on the development of coronary plaques and luminal stenosis.

The Naeotom Alpha class of photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) scanners emphasize significantly reduced scan times and enhanced detection of small abnormalities.

The 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.

Ultra-high spatial resolution with photon-counting CT facilitated a 33 percent reduction in the assessment of median total plaque volume and a 45 percent higher inter-reader agreement for evaluation of low-attenuation plaque volume in contrast to energy-integrating detector (EID) CT.
