PS, in particular, probably requires data acquisition beyond a single breath hold, for which motion-correction techniques are likely necessary. © RSNA, 2011 Supplemental material: http://radiology.rsna.org/lookup/suppl/doi:10.1148/radiol.11110331/-/DC1 (Source: Continuous Publishing articles) Continuous Publishing articles journals http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=5065814 Sun, 24 Jul 2011 23:00:00 +0100 5065814 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=5043929&cid=s_35337_37_f&fid=35337&url=http%3A%2F%2Fradiology.rsna.org%2Fcgi%2Fcontent%2Fshort%2Fradiol.11110014v1%3Frss%3D1 Conclusion: These findings of abnormal thalamic RSNs lend further support to the presumed subtle thalamic injury in patients with MTBI. Resting-state functional MR imaging can be used as an additional imaging modality for detection of thalamocortical connectivity abnormalities and for better understanding of the complex persistent postconcussive syndrome. © RSNA, 2011 (Source: Continuous Publishing articles) Continuous Publishing articles journals http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=5043929 Tue, 19 Jul 2011 23:00:00 +0100 5043929 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=5043939&cid=s_35337_37_f&fid=35337&url=http%3A%2F%2Fradiology.rsna.org%2Fcgi%2Fcontent%2Fshort%2Fradiol.11100966v1%3Frss%3D1 Conclusion: Parenchymal texture features are more strongly correlated to breast PD in DBT than in digital mammography. The authors’ long-term hypothesis is that parenchymal texture analysis with DBT will result in quantitative imaging biomarkers that can improve the estimation of breast cancer risk. © RSNA, 2011 Supplemental material: http://radiology.rsna.org/lookup/suppl/doi:10.1148/radiol.11100966/-/DC1 (Source: Continuous Publishing articles) Continuous Publishing articles journals http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=5043939 Mon, 18 Jul 2011 23:00:00 +0100 5043939 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=5043938&cid=s_35337_37_f&fid=35337&url=http%3A%2F%2Fradiology.rsna.org%2Fcgi%2Fcontent%2Fshort%2Fradiol.11101541v1%3Frss%3D1 Conclusion: MR imaging azygos flow measurement appears to be a promising technique for detecting high-risk esophageal varices in patients with portal hypertension. © RSNA, 2011 (Source: Continuous Publishing articles) Continuous Publishing articles journals http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=5043938 Mon, 18 Jul 2011 23:00:00 +0100 5043938 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=5043937&cid=s_35337_37_f&fid=35337&url=http%3A%2F%2Fradiology.rsna.org%2Fcgi%2Fcontent%2Fshort%2Fradiol.11101664v1%3Frss%3D1 Conclusion: Low-dose MR renography analyzed by using a multicompartmental tracer kinetic renal model may help to differentiate noninvasively between acute rejection and ATN after kidney transplantation. © RSNA, 2011 (Source: Continuous Publishing articles) Continuous Publishing articles journals http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=5043937 Mon, 18 Jul 2011 23:00:00 +0100 5043937 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=5043936&cid=s_35337_37_f&fid=35337&url=http%3A%2F%2Fradiology.rsna.org%2Fcgi%2Fcontent%2Fshort%2Fradiol.11102263v1%3Frss%3D1 Conclusion: This study demonstrates the physiologic evaluation of human kidneys with 3-T 23Na MR imaging.
