In August 2004, a group of scientists and clinicians with a deep interest in electrocardiography met to discuss the present and future of the electrocardiogram as an imaging modality. Motivated by a set of challenges to the field, they each presented and discussed their ideas about the basic electrophysiology, the computational approaches required, and the clinical state of the art and where it might go in the future. In this paper, we present a summary of these presentations and discussions, starting with a statement of the challenges and a motivating case study that illustrates the inadequacies of electrocardiography as it is current practiced. Following this introduction are overviews of the present state of the inverse problem of electrocardiography and the underlying assumptions of this form of simulation and modeling. We conclude with a summary of the needs that we feel must be addressed to achieve the full potential of electrically based imaging of the heart.

Objective: To explore the clinical value of combining split-bolus contrast injection with dual-energy CT(DECT) scanning technology in pediatric computed tomography urography (CTU) imaging.
Methods: A total of 128 children aged 0-17 years were prospectively selected and randomly assigned to three groups: A, B, and C. For Group A, a high-pitch flash mode was employed, where a single bolus of contrast agent was followed by four-phase scanning (noncontrast, cortex, medulla, and excretory phases).

Background: Patient safety incidents are recognized as significant contributors to patient mortality, thus demanding immediate attention and strategic interventions in healthcare systems. The room-of-error education program serves as a solution, as it provides a case-based learning platform allowing nursing students to identify and resolve medical errors within a controlled environment systematically. This study aimed to identify the context, mechanisms, and outcomes of room-of-error training programs.
