Do CT scans raise your risk of cancer? A new study weighs in. Radiation is everywhere—in the air we breathe, the water we drink, the walls of our homes and offices, emanating from microwaves, at the ...

They can be life-saving but radiation from the scans also contributes to cancer risk. The authors of a new study estimate overuse of CT scans is... CT scans diagnose afflictions from tumors to kidney ...

Incidental detection has increased with ubiquitous CT/MRI, inflating early-stage ‘small renal mass’ diagnoses and complicating interpretation of a ~5% rise in <50-year incidence. Obesity, hypertension ...

Researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have developed a method to detect early signs of kidney damage caused by certain cancer treatments. Using an AI-powered algorithm to analyze CT ...

Earlier analyses demonstrated strong local tumor control, with nearly nine in 10 patients remaining free of recurrence at three years. The completion of five-year follow-up marks an important ...

A simple urine test could accurately show the recurrence of kidney cancer at an early stage, potentially sparing patients invasive scans and enabling faster access to treatment, new research has shown ...

CT scans diagnose afflictions from tumors to kidney stones to life-threatening diseases and injuries, such as aneurysms and blood clots leading to stroke. But the radiation emitted by this essential ...

Radiation is everywhere—in the air we breathe, the water we drink, the walls of our homes and offices, emanating from microwaves, at the dentist, and at the doctor if we break a bone. And we’re told, ...
