Dear AuntMinnie Member,
CHICAGO - The rush for the McCormick Place exits begins today as the 2007 RSNA conference wraps up.
Today in our RADCast @ RSNA special section, we're highlighting a number of clinical and business stories that emphasize the breadth of the RSNA experience. First off, PACS consultant Michael J. Cannavo weighs in with his annual PACSman Awards, a tongue-in-cheek look at the various marketing initiatives found on the technical exhibit floor. You'll find that article by clicking here.
In another story, U.S. researchers conducted a survey to analyze the relationship between computer literacy, occupational stress, and personality among radiologists. Find out what they learned by clicking here.
Also, researchers from Stanford University in California reported on a new "patch view" method for viewing virtual colonoscopy computer-aided detection (CAD) results that may be more efficient than traditional sequential browsing of CAD hits. Read more about their method by clicking here.
And in molecular imaging news, researchers from Duke University Medical Center in Durham, NC, presented the results from their 15-year study on PET's value in predicting survival in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). You can read about their study by clicking here.
In other non-RSNA news, get the latest on the new study on CT radiation dose published yesterday in the New England Journal of Medicine. You can find that article by clicking here. You can also read about the American College of Radiology's response to the NEJM article by clicking here or visiting our CT Digital Community at ct.auntminnie.com.
