Many decisions that general clinicians need to make daily are based on a risk assessment of different clinical (medical or surgical) interventions relative to the risk of non-intervention. We have a program for developing imaging protocols to better assess risk for patients in several clinical...

Lymphedema is caused by the accumulation of lymphatic fluid in the interstitial space due to impaired clearance, from congenital causes (primary) or infection, trauma, or medical/surgical treatments (secondary), resulting in (sometimes severe) swelling of the extremities. Visualization and...

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...

Quantitative imaging is the acquisition, extraction, and characterization of relevant quantifiable features from medical images for use in research and patient care. Standardizing the use of imaging biomarkers in clinical trials reduces the variance inherent across different hardware and software...

Communication errors: We sought to analyze the types of communication errors in radiology, investigate at which step communication errors occur, and evaluate the impact of communication errors on patient care, customer satisfaction, and workflow efficiency to identify opportunities for quality...

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...

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...
