Ultrasound study links uterine fibroids to pregnancy loss
According to a Harvard University School of Medicine study that tracked the pregnancies of women with fibroids that were sonographically detected during the first trimester, uterine fibroids are linked to an increased risk of spontaneous pregnancy loss.

CAD wins over mammographers
According to a growing number of breast imaging specialists, the use of computer-aided detection (CAD) in screening mammography is clinically viable, doesn’t produce a mountain of false-positive findings, and boosts radiologists’ ability to detect early-stage cancers.

Turf Wars in Radiology, Part III: All is not lost in nuclear cardiology
No turf war is easy. But when you’re playing catch-up against a well-equipped, politically potent adversary, it’s downright grim. Such are the prospects radiologists face in the burgeoning field of nuclear cardiology.

Turf Wars in Radiology, Part II: Team approach calms turf tension in interventional pulmonology
Interventional radiologists and their pulmonary colleagues are sharing the workload when it comes to treating many lung pathologies. Their secret is knowing when to let the other specialty step in -- a cross between old-fashioned teamwork and doing whatever’s best for the patient.

MRI second-guesses fetal ultrasound
At many large hospitals, radiologists are increasingly using MRI to obtain second opinions on ambiguous fetal ultrasound scans, according to a growing litany of case reports. Based on their success, researchers believe the modality can help direct the course of many pregnancies.

Ultrasound nonmass breast lesion features may signal malignancy
By Amerigo Allegretto
Some nonmass breast lesion characteristics on ultrasound exams can be considered suspicious for malignancy at screening ultrasound.
November 5, 2024
Images depict a 43-year-old woman with a malignant non-mass lesion that was diagnosed as microinvasive ductal carcinoma. (A) Transverse and (B) longitudinal ultrasound images show a hypoechoic non-mass lesion (solid arrows) with segmental distribution in the left breast. The lesion has associated calcifications (dashed arrows in A). (C) Longitudinal color Doppler ultrasound image shows high vascularity. (D) Magnified image in the mediolateral oblique view from screening mammography shows grouped calcifications (arrows), which are considered a mammographic correlate of the ultrasound-detected non-mass lesion (A radiopaque marker attached to the skin is visible in the image because the mammographic exam was performed after screening breast ultrasound). Ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy and pathologic examination revealed ductal carcinoma in situ, but the lesion was upgraded to microinvasive ductal carcinoma at subsequent surgery (2.5-cm ductal carcinoma in situ, histologic grade II, estrogen receptor-positive, progesterone receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2-negative).
