Improving Proficiency in Interventional Radiology Procedures

Interventional Radiology (IR) is rapidly increasing in terms of the types of procedures and the volume of cases. The growth of this field is evidenced by the new residency training program for this specialty. As IR requires proficient technical skills in interventions, assessment of those skills is...

Improving Risk Assessment for Vertebral Fractures

Vertebral fractures are a risk associated with bone metastases in a large range of cancers, with potentially debilitating consequences. While therapeutic interventions exist to reinforce the bone to prevent such fractures, it is currently difficult to evaluate a given patient for level of fracture...

Studying Cancer Metabolism In Vivo with Hyperpolarized MRI

Hyperpolarization is a technology for aligning, or polarizing, the nuclear spins in a contrast agent or metabolic tracer. Agents prepared this way can dramatically enhance nuclear magnetization and, as a result, produce MR signals up to 100,000 times stronger versus conventional imaging. This makes...
