Is your equipment helping or hurting patient communication?
Brian Bradfield.With existing scheduling backlogs, radiology technologists are feeling the pressure to move fast. While patient volumes have swelled, staffing challenges have left a less-than-optimal workforce with a bigger workload. A critical element of care can suffer on account of this pressure: patient communication.
Effective patient communication is already a topic of concern in radiology. While there's a case for providing more training opportunities to support good patient communication, there's also a conversation to have about how the equipment used by a facility can impact patient communication and, ultimately...

Bone health appears normal in transgender youth on hormone therapy
Bone mineral density (BMD) is only slightly below the normal average among transgender youth undergoing gender-affirming hormone therapy, according to a study by researchers at the University of Colorado in Aurora.

The finding may be reassuring for youths undergoing gender-affirming care, noted lead author and medical student Micaela Roy.

MRI shows preeclampsia's effect on maternal heart, fetal brain
MRI reveals the negative effects of preeclampsia on pregnant women's hearts and on the brains of their fetuses, according to research published in the April issue of Hypertension.
The results highlight MRI's benefits as a prenatal assessment tool, wrote a group led by Megan Hall, MD, of St Thomas' Hospital in London, U.K.
"As well as giving insight into the immediate pathophysiological impact of preeclampsia, [MRI] holds potential as a valuable tool for risk stratification both antenatally and when considering longer-term cardiovascular risk in women," it noted.
Preeclampsia is a disease of pregnancy that has both short...

The rise of theranostics: Part 2 -- Moving into communities
A decade ago, only a few radiopharmaceutical agents were used to help treat cancer patients. That has changed and the field of theranostics is expanding rapidly in various ways, as described in part 1 of AuntMinnie.com's series on the rise of theranostics.
However, few freestanding theranostics centers exist today. Even if some private urology, radiation oncology practices, or radiologist groups are building the ability to perform theranostics, experts are cautious about patient management, radiation safety, and the risk of unnecessary imaging. They're also mindful of the multiple dedicated teams required to build a thera...
