Optical Imaging Method Can Determine Cannabis Intoxication, According to New Study
The Radiochemistry Team, and Everything That Doesn’t Go Wrong
PET-MR, a multimodality imaging technique that pairs the whole-body functional imaging of positron emission tomography (PET) with the local anatomic detail and morphological information of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, shows great potential for clinical application. We still don’t know exactly...
Deep Learning Algorithm Can Measure Disease Severity and Change on a Continuous Spectrum
Clinicians often use imaging to evaluate both the severity and progression of disease, in many cases by assigning severity to one of several categories based on the imaging findings and seeing whether and how the classification changes on follow-up. This approach can have its limits, though. B...
Magnetoencephalography Aids Diagnosis and Treatment of Epilepsy, Other Disorders
Originally used only for research purposes, magnetoencephalography (MEG) has been introduced into clinical care in recent decades. With applications in epilepsy already benefiting from its use, and still others on the horizon, the technique is helping to advance diagnosis and treatment for a rang...
