Dear AuntMinnieEurope Member,
As the new year looms large, now is the ideal time to draw breath and reflect on the most popular articles published by AuntMinnieEurope.com during the past 12 months. This annual tradition always provides an informative guide as to what's uppermost in the minds of the European imaging community.
The debate about breast screening has intensified and taken numerous twists and turns over the course of the year, so it's no great surprise that two of our top four articles are about this topic. The issue seems far from being resolved, and further reports appear certain to follow in 2015.
Sports imaging is also a high priority, and thousands of subscribers clicked on our stories about the World Cup and the Winter Olympics.
The controversy about the Nobel Prize for MRI resurfaced at ECR 2014 earlier this year. Dissatisfaction over long waiting times and the backlog of examinations also came to the fore, particularly in France and the U.K.
Our full list of top 10 articles, measured by the total number of page views, is given below. To access the relevant article, simply click on the title:
