Sonologists, ER physicians get joint FAST guidelines
The American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine and the American College of Emergency Physicians have announced the publication of a joint protocol for blunt abdominal injuries.
The guideline for the performance of focused assessment with sonography in trauma (FAST) examination describes clinical indications that call for the study. It also lists the qualifications for physicians performing the exam, quality control and safety standards, and technical require;ments for specific tests. According to AIUM officials, more than 95% of emergency medicine residents now learn to perform FAST.
“The future use of this technology lies in working collaboratively with other societies to develop uniform guidelines for performing ultrasound examinations,” said AIUM president Dr. Joshua Copel.
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.
