Demands for medical imaging and workforce Size: A nationwide population-based Study, 2000-2020.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate associations between workforce and workload among radiologists in Taiwan.

Materials And Methods: Data for the period 2000-2020 describing the demand for imaging services and radiologists have been obtained from databases and statistical reports of the Ministry of Health and Welfare. The future demand for radiologists was based on Taiwanese people aged 40 and over.

Exploring Multiple Application Scenarios of Visual Communication Course Using Deep Learning Under the Digital Twins.

The emergence of intelligent technology has brought a particular impact and allows for virtuality-reality interaction in the educational field. In particular, digital twins (DTs) feature virtuality-reality symbiosis, solid virtual simulation, and high real-time interaction. It has also seen extended applications to the field of education.

Bismuth breast-shield use in chest computed tomography for efficient dose reduction and sufficient image quality.

Background: Radiosensitivity in the breasts increases the risk of carcinogenesis from exposure to the ionizing radiation of computed tomography (CT) administered in the course of medical attention. Bismuth shielding techniques have been used to reduce radiation, but image noise increased, degrading image quality.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate how the use of iterative reconstruction (IR) combined with bismuth shielding influences image quality.

Large-volume iodinated contrast medium extravasation: low frequency and good outcome after conservative management in a single-centre cohort of more than 67,000 patients.

Objectives: Our aim was to retrospectively investigate the frequency and outcome of large-volume iodinated contrast medium (CM) extravasation in our institution and to compare our management protocol to current practice.

Methods: Institutional review board approval was obtained, and informed consent was waived because the study was retrospective. From January 2008 to September 2016, radiological examinations with intravenous non-ionic iodinated CM administration were performed in 67,129 patients.
