Point-of-care testing – enhancing throughput in emergency departments
Point-of-care testing (POCT) refers to diagnostic tests which are performed physically close to a patient, with the results obtained on site. They are conducted at primary care centres and at hospital bed sides (increasingly, in emergency departments and intensive care units, too). POCTs are also used in the field in settings such as natural or […]
Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance – new frontiers against cancer, but some way still to go
Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance (DCE-MRI) is a functional imaging technique. It consists of MRI scans coupled to the injection of a contrast agent. The latter leads to a decrease in relaxation time and provides extremely detailed characteristics of the micro-circulation of blood through tissue. DCE-MRI assessments typically use the characteristics of signal intensity (SI) and […]
