(MedPage Today) — Diaphragm position on neonatal bedside chest radiograph appeared to be a poor surrogate for aerated lung volume, a study showed, questioning a longstanding practice in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).
The number of posterior…

CT Colonography Tops Stool DNA Testing for Colorectal Cancer Screening
(MedPage Today) — The use of CT colonography (CTC) for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening prevents more cancers and is more cost-effective than multitarget stool DNA testing, a simulation study suggested.
In a hypothetical 10,000-person cohort…
