As today’s healthcare industry continues to shift toward a value-based model, radiology practices are facing increased pressure to produce higher quality reads in less time. There is little doubt that the stakes are high — if an organization is unable to improve performance and quality, it is likely to fall behind the competition and negatively impact customer retention and acquisition.

So how do you simultaneously enhance performance and quality?

Leading radiosurgery experts presented their experiences with Automatic Brain Metastases Planning software at the Novalis Circle Symposium during this year’s American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) annual meeting and exhibition. The software consistently and rapidly generates radiosurgery plans, allowing clinicians to efficiently treat up to 10 multiple brain metastases in one session while helping minimize radiation exposure to healthy surrounding tissue.

Shimadzu Medical Systems USA announced the availability of T-smart, a new tomographic image reconstruction function using iterative reconstruction. The algorithm improves the clarity of tomosynthesis-acquired orthopedic images containing metal implanted objects such as used in orthopedics. T-smart made its U.S. debut at the 2015 Association for Medical Imaging Management (AHRA) annual meeting of radiology hospital administrators, held July 19-22 in Las Vegas.

Dramatic increases in pediatric emergency department visits for sports-related head injuries over the past decade are leading to high numbers of unnecessary computed tomography (CT) scans, according to new research. The aggregate result of this increase is higher radiation exposure and higher cost of treatment.

Researchers at the University of Kentucky’s Sanders-Brown Center on Aging are on the hunt for biomarkers that might serve as an early warning system for Alzheimer’s disease (AD).
