Operating beyond 3T: Is clinical use in reach?
VIENNA - The standard field strength of clinical MR units is still 1.5 tesla, but the past five years have seen a tremendous increase in the number of devices operating at 3.0 tesla. In addition, whole-body systems up to 9.4 tesla have become available in experimental settings and have already proved to be significantly beneficial in special purpose examinations.

WFUMB: Elastography transforms hepatic imaging
Acoustic radiation force impulse is a new elastographic method that allows rapid assessment of liver fibrosis that seems free of adverse events, is comfortable for the patient and sonographer, and has a mean duration of around five minutes, according to a scheduled presenter at the World Federation for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology congress.

WFUMB: Ultrasound assists in inflammatory bowel disease
Contrast-enhanced ultrasound is the most sensitive method for detecting even minor bowel blood flow, a relevant sign for inflammatory bowel disease, and is more powerful than ultrasound alone for characterizing inflammatory masses, according to a scheduled presenter at the World Federation for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology congress.

Fast-tracking of overseas radiologists looms in Australia
Radiologists keen to work in Australia may soon find it far easier to do so. Despite vocal domestic opposition, the government is forging ahead with its plan to fast-track overseas applicants for radiology jobs.
