Systematic in‐hospital screening and treatment for osteoporosis in a geriatric population with hip fractures

Journal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Low‐trauma fractures of the hip signify osteoporosis and increase the risk of a second fracture. However, screening for secondary osteoporosis and initiating osteoporosis treatment can be challenging in a geriatric population.

Current Landscape of Short‐T2 Imaging Techniques in the Musculoskeletal System: The Past, Present and Future

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conventional MRI is limited in imaging tissues with short T2 relaxation times, such as bone, ligaments, and cartilage, due to their rapid signal decay. This limitation has spurred the development of specialized MRI techniques designed specifically for short‐T2 tissue imaging.

Positional Challenges of the Anteroposterior Pelvic X‐Ray: Comparison of Imaging Reject Rates Between Trauma Trolley and Table Bucky

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Pelvic radiographs taken on a trauma trolley had a significantly higher reject rate and lower first exposure accuracy compared with those taken on an x‐ray table. Future studies could involve implementing strategies to reduce the reject rate of pelvic radiographs taken on trauma trolleys. ABSTRACT Introduction Pelvic x‐rays can be conducted on a trauma

Radiographer Preliminary Image Evaluation Accuracy in Interpreting Paediatric Trauma Radiographs

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Radiographer preliminary image evaluation (PIE) is a patient safety mechanism where radiographers provide a written comment describing potential pathology in radiographs they have acquired. This can assist emergency referrers in making a diagnosis when a radiologist's report is unavailable.
