Ischaemic heart disease following conventional and hypofractionated radiation treatment in a contemporary breast cancer series
ConclusionsOur study has shown a low rate of ischaemic cardiac disease for both CFRT and HFRT in women treated for breast cancer with no evidence of an effect with fractionation schedule. Coexisting cardiac risk factors are common in the population. (Source: Australasian Radiology)

Imaging assessment of rounded atelectasis: A pictorial essay
Summary
Rounded atelectasis is an increasingly recognized but under‐diagnosed and sometimes misdiagnosed pulmonary entity. This pictorial essay will present a broad range of examples of rounded atelectasis across different imaging modalities with inclusion of typical and atypical presentations. These examples will highlight imaging features that allow confident diagnosis and those that warrant further management, such as imaging surveillance, alternate imaging or invasive procedures for histological evaluation.

Prospective analysis of the utility of 18 ‐FDG PET in Merkel cell carcinoma of the skin: A Trans Tasman Radiation Oncology Group Study, TROG 09:03
ConclusionStaging 18‐FDG‐PET significantly influenced treatment decisions in approximately one‐third of cases of MCC and should be considered in the routine pre‐treatment work‐up. Post‐treatment PET was not found to be prognostic. Funding through the Medicare Benefits Schedule needs to be considered for high risk MCC. (Source: Australasian Radiology)
