Implementation of Process Improvements to Facilitate Cardiac CT Re-Credentialing in a Rural Healthcare System
Conclusion: In rural healthcare systems, institutional strategies can increase provider access to components necessary for Cardiac CT level II re-credentialing. In the COVID-19 era, rural and urban health organizations may find considerable provider benefit and engagement by using similar process improvement methods to help providers meet local and national requirements for certification.PMID:35022198 | DOI:10.3121/cmr.2021.1650

Development and Implementation of an Electronic Education Tool for Volumetric Image Guided Radiation Therapy
Image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) through daily cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) has significantly impacted the role of the Radiation Therapist at our institution; continuing education is crucial to ensure safe practice of technology in the clinical environment. The purpose of this work was to develop an electronic refresher module for CBCT-practicing Radiation Therapists, with an aim to equip staff with the critical thinking skills and clinical judgment required to operate in a CBCT-IGRT environment.

Clinical routine use of dopamine transporter imaging in 516 consecutive patients
Abstract
[123I]-FP-CIT is a single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) ligand showing in vivo the loss of dopaminergic terminals in the brain and is now available in the market. Despite several systematic studies in clinically inconclusive cases, the use of such imaging in clinical routine is scarcely reported. We analyzed 516 files of subjects with movement disorders who were consecutively examined using [123I]-FP-CIT scan and determined whether the use of imaging was appropriate and if it improved clinical diagnosis or care of the patient. In addition, we determined if appropriate use was related to subs...

“Is Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) a Potential Imaging Tool in ENT Practice?: A Cross-Sectional Survey Among ENT Surgeons in the State of Odisha, India
AbstractThis questioner survey aimed about awareness of the Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) machine and its various clinical applications in ENT, among the ENT surgeons in the state of Odisha. 150 questioner forms on CBCT were distributed to the all the participating ENT surgeons at a state level ENT conference, out of which the response rate was 110. The participants were asked to answer 30 multiple choice questions, which were divided into 3 parts; general information on CBCT, general approach to CBCT and practice related to CBCT. The statistical analysis of the data collected was carried out by a Chi square test to...

Quantitative clinical nuclear cardiology, part 2: Evolving/emerging applications
This article discusses evolving methods to measure myocardial blood flow with positron emission tomography and single-photon emission computed tomography. Novel quantitative assessments of myocardial viability, microcalcification and in patients with cardiac sarcoidosis and cardiac amyloidosis will also be described. Lastly, we will review the potential role for artificial intelligence to improve image analysis, disease diagnosis, and risk prediction. The potential clinical role for all these novel techniques will be highlighted as well as methods to optimize their implementation.

Predoctoral and Postdoctoral Education on Cone-Beam Computed Tomography
As the use of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) in dentistry continues to grow, questions related to appropriate radiation safety, training, and interpretation arise. Recognizing this need, the American Dental Association published an advisory statement for the safe use of CBCT in dentistry and recommended that guidelines for appropriate training be established. The purpose of this study was to assess radiation safety concerns related to CBCT and identify voids in current education on CBCT for the predoctoral dental curriculum and continuing dental education.

Application of photogrammetry in forensic pathology education of medical students in response to COVID-19
J Forensic Sci. 2021 Mar 25. doi: 10.1111/1556-4029.14709. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAs the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic forced universities to switch to distance online education, there was an urgent need to find some virtual/digital alternatives in order to continue teaching. Opportunities such as watching pre-recorded autopsy videos or creating and analyzing post-mortem computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging with various 3D surface imaging techniques are usually time-consuming and cost-intensive. Photogrammetry, which allows the creation of 3D textured surface models from a series of overl...
