Abstract Because there are many potential risks in the MR environment and reports of adverse incidents involving patients, equipment personnel, need for a guidance document on safe practices emerged. Initially published 2002, ACR Safe Practices Guidelines established de facto industry standards responsible clinical research environments. As changes is reviewed, modified updated. The most recent version will reflect these changes. J. Magn. Reson. Imaging 2013;37:501–530. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
To compare a T1-weighted, three-dimensional (3D), gradient-echo (GRE) sequence for magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of the body (volumetric interpolated breath-hold examination, or VIBE) with two-dimensional (2D) GRE equivalent.Twenty consecutive patients underwent 1.5-T MR imaging. The examinations included pre- and postcontrast (20 mL gadopentetate dimeglumine) fat-saturated 2D volumetric before, during (arterial phase), after injection, thin (2-mm source images) thick (8-mm reconstruction...
Intravenous iodinated contrast media are commonly used with CT to evaluate disease and determine treatment response. The risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) developing in patients reduced function following exposure intravenous has been overstated. This is due primarily historic lack control groups sufficient separate contrast-induced AKI (CI-AKI; ie, caused by administration) from contrast-associated (CA-AKI; coincident administration). Although the true CI-AKI remains uncertain for severe...
The Prostate Imaging-Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) v2 analysis system for multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) detection of prostate cancer (PCa) is based on PI-RADS v1, accumulated scientific evidence, expert consensus opinion.
Prostate cancer (PCa) is a major cause of death since ancient time documented in Egyptian Ptolemaic mummy imaging. PCa detection critical to personalized medicine and varies considerably under an MRI scan. 172 patients with 2,602 morphologic images (axial 2D T2-weighted imaging) the prostate were obtained. A deep learning convolutional neural network (DCNN) non-deep SIFT image feature bag-of-word (BoW), representative method for recognition analysis, used distinguish pathologically confirmed...
Inaugural consensus statements were developed and endorsed by the American College of Radiology (ACR) National Kidney Foundation to improve standardize care patients with kidney disease who have indication(s) receive ACR-designated group II or III intravenous gadolinium-based contrast media (GBCM). The risk nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) from GBCM in advanced is thought be very low (zero events following 4931 administrations estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] <30 mL/min per...
Abstract The purpose of this study was to develop, standardize, and test reproducibility a lexicon for reporting contrast‐enhanced breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations. To standardize MRI lesion description reporting, seven radiologists with extensive experience developed consensus on technical detail, clinical history, terminology describe kinetic architectural features lesions detected MR images. This adapted American College Radiology Breast Imaging Data Reporting System...
PURPOSE: To compare findings with computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in pancreatic adenocarcinoma to determine optimal pulse sequences for MR imaging. MATERIALS AND METHODS: CT scans images were compared of 189 adult patients known or suspected the pancreas. Levels confidence correlated surgical pathologic results. RESULTS: The accuracy was 0.73 0.70. negative predictive value 0.28 0.23. positive 0.89 0.88. Gradient-echo T1-weighted spin-echo ranked equally...
To determine the incremental benefit of combined endorectal magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and MR spectroscopic imaging, as compared with alone, for sextant localization peripheral zone (PZ) prostate cancer.This prospective multicenter study, conducted by American College Radiology Imaging Network (ACRIN) from February 2004 to June 2005, was institutional review board approved HIPAA compliant. Research associates were required follow consent guidelines Office Human Protection established...
PURPOSE: To prospectively evaluate the relative accuracy of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in staging colorectal carcinoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS: CT MR studies were independently interpreted a group 478 patients with carcinoma study conducted from 1989 to 1993. The each modality was assessed subset 365 primary tumors respect local extent tumor, status local-regional lymph nodes, presence liver metastases. RESULTS: In is more accurate than imaging, particularly...
Abstract Purpose To compare the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative (NPV) of ultrasound (US) MRI in evaluation pregnant patients with a clinical suspicion appendicitis. Materials Methods A total 33 suspected appendicitis underwent US MRI. The original imaging reports generated at time presentation were used for data analysis. Pathology disease confirmation who appendectomy. When surgery was not performed, medical record review performed. PPV, NPV...
