March 15, 2010 - Advanced visualization software is increasingly playing an role in providing dose lowering techniques in computed tomography angiography (CTA).
March 15, 2010 - Researchers released new data from an National Institute of Health (NIH) sponsored, multi-site study of hundreds of women with newly diagnosed breast cancer shows that positron emission mammography (PEM) may reduce unnecessary breast biopsies.
March 12, 2010 – A new advanced visualization technology in development allows clinicians to automatically apply supercomputing algorithms for the analysis of internal organs, vessels, tumors and other regions of interest in multiple dimensions, from 2D to 5D, including data set animations.

March 11, 2010 - A new PET/CT (postitron emission tomography/computed tomography) system provides imaging for both the clinical areas of both radiology and oncology.
Once you’ve had a PACS in place, be it a few months or a few years, you pretty much know virtually everything about it.
You know how it works, how to use it to get the most efficiency, have defined your hanging protocols, created shortcuts, developed workarounds to system bugs and know the system like the back of your hand.

March 10, 2010 - While a joint ACR/ASTRO accreditation program for radiation oncology facilities may significantly reduce the odds of adverse medical events during radiological procedures, next generation radiation therapy technologies may also assist in providing greater safety during treatments.
March 10, 2010 - While intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) can create a treatment that maximizes dose to the target and minimizes dose to healthy tissues, it can lead to longer delivery times compared with standard radiation therapy.
March 10, 2010 - To help clinicians communicate about radiation dose exposure during radiological procedures, a new dose-saving solution for use in interventional radiology procedures is now available.
March 10, 2010 - The American College of Radiology (ACR) is backing the Safeguard Access to Preventative Services Act (H.R. 4794), which would "prohibit the use of any recommendation of the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (or any successor task force) by private or public health insurers to deny or restrict coverage of a healthcare item or service."
