Radiologists Need to Become Central Members of Cancer Teams

Radiologists need to become established as central members of cancer teams because of an expected increase in the importance of imaging for cancer between the years 2016 and 2026. Radiologists are responsible for early identification of toxicity using precision oncology imaging, and need to interpret these findings, including the relationship of the findings with tumor response, and the effect on metastasectomy.

Uncertain Benefit for Imaging After Thyroid Cancer Treatment

Researchers at the University of Michigan (Ann Arbor, USA) conducted a surveillance epidemiological study of 28,220 patients diagnosed with differentiated thyroid cancer between 1998 and 2011. The study cohort was followed up to 2013, with a median follow-up of 69 months. Following treatment, 56.7% of the patients had at least one ultrasound, 23.9% had a radioiodine scan, and 14.9% had a positron emission tomography (PET) scan to monitor for signs of cancer recurrence. The main outcome measures were treatment for recurrence of differentiated thyroid cancer and death. More...

Study Finds Radiologists Do Not Have a Higher Risk of Radiation-Related Death

In a large-scale study, researchers compared the incidence of cancer, and mortality rates of radiologists and psychiatrists who graduated between 1916 and 2006 from medical school. The studies are intended to help evaluate the effectiveness of radiation protection steps, and the effects of long-term protracted exposure radiation at low levels. More...

Cancer Risk Due to CT is Not Fully Appreciated

Researchers at the University of Saskatchewan (Saskatoon, Canada) conducted a survey among 328 medical professionals in Saskatchewan province to assess healthcare providers' knowledge regarding radiation dosing from CT scans. To do so, they queried them regarding the average radiation dose from an abdominal-pelvic CT, which is 10 millisieverts (mSv), compared to 0.02-0.2 mSv from one chest x-ray, which indicates that the radiation dose from an abdominal-pelvic CT scan is between 100-250 times that of a chest radiograph.
