Low-dose CT with iterative reconstruction for acute abdominal pain
How much is it possible to reduce, using low-dose CT with iterative reconstruction algorithms, the radiation dose delivered for acute abdominal pain? Can we go down to the same dose than in abdominal radiography? Find out in the article below.

ESUR guidelines for Magnetic Resonance imaging in endometriosis
A panel of radiologists from the European Society of Urogenital Radiology (ESUR), experts in gynaecological imaging and a gynaecologist expert in methodology proposed a final recommendation on technical requirements, patient preparation, protocols and criteria for the diagnosis of pelvic endometriosis using Magnetic Resonance Imaging.
Screening for breast cancer

Diagnostic accuracy of dual-source CT coronary angiography in obese and non-obese patients
3rd-generation dual source CT angiography with automated tube voltage selection provides a high diagnostic accuracy for detecting significant stenoses in coronary arteries. Detection accuracy was not significantly different between non-obese and obese patients, thus current radiation dose-saving approaches can be applied independent of body habitus.
Indeterminate Adnexal Mass
With this article the authors aim to deliver an update on the 2010 ESUR recommendations of MRI of the sonographically indeterminate adnexal mass. Key points: MRI is a useful complementary imaging technique for assessing sonographically indeterminate...
