Azienda News:
- Is Repeated Preoperative Magnetic Resonance Imaging Necessary . . .
For patients undergoing surgery for lumbar spinal stenosis, repeated MRI within the year before planned surgery showed few significant changes in common radiological parameters The benefit for the surgeon of repeat MRI is therefore limited
- CT and MRI in surgical planning and intra-operative imaging
Radiology plays a vital role in staging and planning of surgery in gastrointestinal malignancies Imaging aids in avoiding non-therapeutic laparotomies, choosing the optimal surgical approach and decreasing the morbidity of surgery Most surgeons prefer computerized tomography (CT) images for staging and surgical planning
- Intraoperative MRI (iMRI): What It Is, Purpose Advantages
You won’t need to specifically prepare for an iMRI because it happens during a surgical procedure Your surgical team will make sure you and the surgical room are ready for the imaging test when it’s time Instead, you can prepare for surgery by following your surgeon’s instructions
- Preoperative planning with three-dimensional CT vs. three . . .
This study demonstrates that there is signicant variability in surgical procedure selection driven by time alone in shoulder instability Surgical decision making with 3D MRI was similar to 3D CT scans and may be used by surgeons for preoperative planning
- Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Computed Tomography (CT . . .
A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT) imaging procedure in the hospital outpatient department is considered medically necessary for individuals who meet any of the following criteria:
- Image-Guided Minimally Invasive Diagnostic and Therapeutic . . .
CT has much better geometric accuracy than does MRI, because of the intrinsic curved nature of the magnetic field Thus CT may be preferred in applications for which geometric accuracy is important, such as surgical procedures that rely on prospectively derived images for navigational guidance
- Utilization Management in Radiology: Basic Concepts and . . .
Its procedures include areas such as the review of referrals, planned surgical procedures, and inpatient treatment to help health care providers and facilities render appropriate care [7]
