1. A Study of the Ability for CT Imaging to Accurately Predict the Fragility (Quality of Being Easily Broken) of Kidney Stones during Surgical Intervention

   Rochester, Minn.

   A Study of the ability for CT imaging to accurately predict the fragility (quality of being easily broken) of kidney stones during surgical intervention. 

2. A Study to Determine the Tradeoffs between CT Image Quality and Patient Radiation Dose

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine the tradeoffs between CT image quality and patient radiation dose in a way that moves beyond current simple models (e.g. standard deviation and CTDIvol) by investigating the relationships between task-based metrics of image quality, observer performance, patient size, and patient dose.

4. A Study of the Possible Use of a New Imaging Method with Glioma Tumors

   Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this study is to see if Magnetic Resonance Elastography (MRE) a recently developed imaging technique can be used to characterize and help stage glioma tumors and evaluate response to therapy.

5. Quantitative Assessment of Tumor Ablation

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to retrospectively analyze potential correlation between ablation zone/margin and tumor recurrence by using the Software Product to quantitatively evaluate diagnostic/pre-operative CT images, intra-operative CT images during ablation procedures, and follow-up CT images; and to apply and evaluate the FDA cleared Software Product during CT-guided ablation procedures for intra-operative monitoring and confirmation.
   
    

6. Evaluating Highly Flexible (aka AIR) RF Coils for Patients Undergoing MR Imaging for Radiation Therapy Planning

   Rochester, Minn.

   To assess the quality of images obtained with a new RF (AIR) coil when compared to those obtained using FDA approved RF coils of patients undergoing MR imaging for radiation therapy treatment planning.

8. Magnetic Resonance Elastography of Traumatic Brain Injury

   Rochester, Minn.

   This purpose of this pilot study is to determine if there are changes in mild TBI detectible with MRE. This is the first time this novel technology has been applied to mild TBI and the anticipated results are theoretical.

9. A Study to Evaluate Photon Counting Detector CT Utility in Identifying Acute Wrist Fractures.

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to examine the ability of PCD-CT to (1) display subtle fractures of the wrist using the system’s increased spatial resolution compared to conventional wrist CT and MR; and (2)  evaluate the ability of PCD-CT with virtual non-calcium images to identify bone marrow edema at acute fracture sites.

    

10. A Study to Assess Biomarkers of Cerebral Cavernous Angioma with Symptomatic Hemorrhage (CASH)

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of this study is to develop prognostic and diagnostic blood tests for symptomatic brain hemorrhage in patients diagnosed with cavernous angiomas, a critical clinical challenge in a disease affecting more than a million Americans. We further examine whether blood biomarkers can replace or enhance the accuracy of advanced imaging in association with lesional bleeding. The project tests a novel integrational approach of biomarker development in a mechanistically defined cerebrovascular disease, with a clinically relevant context of use.

10. A Clinical Use Application for the Humanitarian Use Device Exemption Use Protocol of TheraSphere for Treatment of Unresectable Primary or Secondary Liver Neoplasia

    Eau Claire, Wis.

    This protocol allows multiple treatments with TheraSphere® that may be delivered on an outpatient basis. Patients may receive a single dose to a liver lobe or segmental treatment delivered as a sequence of treatments approximately 30-90 days apart. The principal clinician, working with a multidisciplinary team, will develop a specific treatment plan for each patient, based upon the presenting condition of the patient, the vascular anatomy and the desired goal of treatment.
