Evaluation of the FUSION-X-US-II prototype to combine automated breast ultrasound and tomosynthesis

Objective The FUSION-X-US-II prototype was developed to combine 3D automated breast ultrasound (ABUS) and digital breast tomosynthesis in a single device. We evaluated the performance of ABUS and tomosynthesis in a single examination in a clinical…

Factors associated with imaging overuse in the emergency department: A systematic review

Background: Emergency departments (ED) are sites of prevalent imaging overuse; however, determinants that drive imaging in this setting are not well-characterized. We systematically reviewed the literature to summarize the determinants of imaging…

Contributions of paleorheumatology to understanding contemporary disease.

As paleopathology has evolved from observational speculation to analysis of testable hypotheses, so too has recognition of its contribution to vertebrate paleontology. In the presence of significant structural and density variation (between matrix…

Unusual artifact with mammography film.

The authors identified the origin of a high-density artifact with mammography film. An acrylic ramp phantom (thickness, 0-7 cm) was used to create a continuously variable radiation exposure. A perturbation in the curve of optical density versus…

Dynamic automatic ultrasound optimization: time savings, keystroke savings, and image quality.

PURPOSE: The aims of this study were to evaluate if a dynamic automatic image optimization technique decreases examination time and number of keystrokes while maintaining or improving image quality and to determine if these variables vary with…

Computed Tomography Artifact Created by Air in the X-ray Tube Oil.

A subtle artifact of patchy hypodensities in computed tomography images of the head mimicked acute or subacute cerebral infarct. The cause of the artifact was air in the oil of the x-ray tube. The artifact manifested only when the acquisition…

Transcutaneous Ultrasound: Elastographic Lymph Node Evaluation. Current Clinical Applications and Literature Review.

Distinguishing malignant versus benign lymphadenopathies is a major diagnostic dilemma in clinical medicine. Metastatic deposits in normal-sized lymph nodes (LNs) can be smaller than a millimeter, thus presenting a diagnostic challenge. In most…

A three-dimensional digital neurological atlas of the mustached bat (Pteronotus parnellii).

Substantial knowledge of auditory processing within mammalian nervous systems emerged from neurophysiological studies of the mustached bat (Pteronotus parnellii). This highly social and vocal species retrieves precise information about the velocity…

Dynamic tracking influenced by anatomy in patellar instability.

BACKGROUND: The current study was performed to correlate anatomical parameters related to trochlear dysplasia, tibial tuberosity position, and patella alta with in vivo patellar tracking for subjects with recurrent patellar instability. METHODS:…

Early astrocyte redistribution in the optic nerve precedes axonopathy in the DBA/2J mouse model of glaucoma.

Glaucoma challenges the survival of retinal ganglion cell axons in the optic nerve through processes dependent on both aging and ocular pressure. Relevant stressors likely include complex interplay between axons and astrocytes, both in the retina and…

Persistence of intact retinal ganglion cell terminals after axonal transport loss in the DBA/2J mouse model of glaucoma.

Axonal transport defects are an early pathology occurring within the retinofugal projection of the DBA/2J mouse model of glaucoma. Retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axons and terminals are detectable after transport is affected, yet little is known about…
