Featured Radiology Application |
A new program was launched on Radiolopolis: "Dare To Share!". Dare To Share! is a project, which allows sharing cases between researchers and colleagues. Users may find interesting or needed cases/images for different kind of projects (studies, books, publications, presentations etc.) while assuring the owner's credentials/copyright of the case. Direct contact between the searcher and the owner of the case provides also a good opportunity to get to know new, potential partners for future projects. More infos about the Dare To Share! program can be found here.

| The Evolution of Whole-Body Imaging |
|
This article reviews the evolution of whole-body imaging, discussing the history and development of radiography, nuclear medicine, computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography (PET), combined PET-CT, and magnetic resonance imaging. The obstacles hindering progress toward whole-body imaging using each of these modalities, and the technical advances that were developed to overcome them, are reviewed. The effectiveness and the limitations of whole-body imaging with each of these techniques are also briefly discussed.[...]© Thieme Medical PublishersGet connected:Table of contents | Abstract | Full text

| Whole-Body Imaging Modalities in Oncology |
|
This article outlines the expanding approaches to whole-body imaging in oncology focusing on whole-body MRI and comparing it to emerging applications of whole-body CT, scintigraphy, and above all PET CT imaging. Whole-body MRI is widely available, non-ionizing and rapidly acquired, and inexpensive relative to PET CT. While it has many advantages, WBMRI is non-specific and, when compared to PET CT, is less sensitive. This article expands each of these issues comparing individual modalities as they refer to specific cancers.[...]© Thieme Medical PublishersGet connected:Table of contents | Abstract | Full text

| Targeted Contrast Agents—an Adjunct to Whole-Body Imaging: Current Concepts |
|
This article reviews the potential use of a combination of whole-body imaging and targeted contrast agents in improving diagnostics, with a particular focus on oncology imaging. It looks at the rationale for nanoparticles and their development as targeted contrast agents. It subsequently describes many of the advances made thus far in developing tissue-specific contrast agents capable of targeting tumors that combined with whole-body imaging may enable superior cancer detection and characterization.[...]© Thieme Medical PublishersGet connected:Table of contents | Abstract | Full text

| The Role of Whole-Body Imaging in the Diagnosis, Staging, and Follow-Up of Multiple Myeloma |
|
Semin Musculoskelet Radiol 2010; 14: 037-046DOI: 10.1055/s-0030-1248705ABSTRACTMultiple myeloma is one of the most common hematological malignancies and accounts for significant morbidity and mortality. In the past, detection of myelomatous deposits by radiography was the main method of radiological assessment in this disease. However, in recent years the introduction of whole-body imaging techniques, specifically low-dose whole-body computed tomography, whole-body magnetic resonance imaging, and positron emission tomography, has facilitated a more comprehensive assessment of this heterogeneous and often diffuse disease. Each of these whole-body imaging techniques has specific applications and limitations in the assessment of multiple myeloma that the interpreting radiologist and referring...

Semin Musculoskelet Radiol 2010; 14: 022-036DOI: 10.1055/s-0030-1248703ABSTRACTThe concept of a rapid whole-body imaging technique with high resolution and the absence of ionizing radiation for the assessment of osseous metastatic disease is a desirable tool. This review article outlines the current perspective of whole-body magnetic resonance imaging in the assessment of skeletal metastatic disease, with comparisons made to alternative whole-body imaging modalities.[...]© Thieme Medical PublishersGet connected:Table of contents | Abstract | Full text

| Manufacturer says radiation dose from airport scanners minimal |
|
In a recent article entitled Radiation risks: Are airport body scanners ‘a great public health experiment’?”, Leon Kaufman argues that the use of these scanners at airports exposes airline passengers to undetermined amounts of radiation without reason and with little knowledge of the consequences. I would like to address certain incorrect assertions in this article.
