The European Radiology Private Foundation and European Radiology are pleased to announce, for the first time ever, two recipients of the 2023 Albert L. Baert Editorial Fellowship: Dr. Lynn Jeanette Savic and Dr. Mansi Verma! Dr. Savic, from Charité...Reply to the Letter to the Editor: “Proposed diagnostic volumetric bone mineral density thresholds for osteoporosis and osteopenia at the cervicothoracic spine in correlation to the lumbar spine”
Dear Editor, With great interest we have read the Letter to the Editor by Xiao Chen and colleagues regarding our publication “Proposed diagnostic volumetric bone mineral density thresholds for osteoporosis and osteopenia at the cervicothoracic spine in correlation to...Letter to the Editor: “Proposed diagnostic volumetric bone mineral density thresholds for osteoporosis and osteopenia at the cervicothoracic spine in correlation to the lumbar spine”
Dear Editor, Screening for osteoporosis can be effective in reducing the incidence of fragility fractures [1]. Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and quantitative computed tomography (QCT) based lumbar bone mineral density (LBMD) has been used for osteoporosis...
ESR Journal Family uses single-blinded peer review from January 2023 onwards
Since their inception, the ESR journals have used double-blinded peer review, where reviewers were blinded to the authors’ identities and vice versa. As of January 9, 2023, all three journals begin implementing a single-blinded peer review process, where manuscripts...Letter to the Editor: “Diagnostic accuracy of coronary computed tomography angiography-derived fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) in patients before liver transplantation using CT-FFR machine learning algorithm”
Dear Editor, We read the article by Schuessler et al with interest [1]. In their study, they used a CT-FFR machine learning algorithm for differentiation of hemodynamically significant and non-significant coronary stenosis in patients evaluated for LT. In this study,...Reply to the Letter to the Editor: “Economic potential of abbreviated breast MRI for screening women with dense breast tissue for breast cancer”
Dear Editor in Chief, we would like to express our gratitude for the response to our article about the economic evaluation of abbreviated breast MRI published in April 2022 in European Radiology [1]. The colleagues discuss the challenges of implementing abbreviated...Letter to the Editor: “Economic potential of abbreviated breast MRI for screening women with dense breast tissue for breast cancer”
Dear Editor in Chief, In a model-based economic study, Tollens et al [1] found that abbreviated breast MRI (AB-MRI) may be considered cost-effective compared to a full protocol MRI (FB-MRI) for screening women with dense breast tissue. Reporting a cut-off that allows...
