Journal Review-Radiology October 2010

Two papers from Radiology October 2010 are featured here to update the readers of the exciting updates in the field of medical imaging.

Few days back we had post coiling patient who post the procedure deteriorated. Plain CT scan showed increased sulcal density in the area, which could have been persisitent post angiographic contrast versus rebleed. Going through the article "Evaluation of Dual-Energy CT for Differentiating Intracerebral Hemorrhage from Iodinated Contrast Material Staining- October 2010 Radiology, 257,205-211." , possibly dual energy CT is the answer


Right Coronary MR Angiography at 7 T: A Direct Quantitative and Qualitative Comparison with 3 T in Young Healthy Volunteers- October 2010 Radiology, 257,254-259 has found improvement in evaluation of right coronary artery using 7Tesla MRI versus 3T.

This looks like a great concept by ISR. Good work!

Journal Submissions Invited

Radiology related scientific article submissions are invited in the following journals. Both of these are open access journals ensuring wider readership and offer free publication.

Internet Journal of Radiology

(For which I am the editor-in-chief)

This is a peer reviewed journal. Every published article has been reviewed by members of the editorial board and the editor-in-chief. All articles are archived by Internet Scientific Publications LLC and recognized by The Library of Congress Catalog of Publications

Journal of Radiology Case Reports

(In which i am the Section Editor for Neuroradiology)

This journal is dedicated solely to Radiology case reports. Case reports are usually "neglected" by large or traditional journals, mainly due to competition with "higher value" articles (review, original research etc.) for valuable space in the hardcopy version of the journal.
