SCIENCE TO PRACTICE:

Giuseppe Brancatelli: Science to Practice: Should Biopsy Be Performed in Potential Liver Donors When Unenhanced CT Shows an Unacceptable Degree of Steatosis for Transplantation?
Park et al have demonstrated that unenhanced CT can accurately depict moderate to severe (ie, $≥$ 30%) macrovesicular steatosis, thereby allowing avoidance of biopsy in potential living liver donors who have an unacceptable degree of steatosis for transplantation.

REVIEWS AND COMMENTARY:

Editorials:

Louis R. Kavoussi, Matthew Nielsen, and Stephen B. Solomon: Percutaneous Image-guided Urologic Procedures
As numerous factions clamor to stake claims of legitimacy in these shifting sands, it is imperative that we maintain a vigilant focus on the goal of maximizing the delivery of the highest standard of service to our patients, advancing both the scientific and the technical sophistication of our practice.

State of the Art:

Steve Halligan and Jaap Stoker: Imaging of Fistula in Ano
In those patients with fistula in ano who have a high likelihood of complex disease, the evidence that preoperative MR imaging influences the surgical approach, extent of exploration, and improves ultimate outcome is now overwhelming.

Review for Residents:

Helen T. Winer-Muram: The Solitary Pulmonary Nodule
In using the various imaging and diagnostic modalities described in this review, one should strive to not only identify small malignant tumors—where resection results in high survival rates—but also spare patients with benign disease from undergoing unnecessary surgery.

James H. Thrall: Leadership and Organizational Development: Lessons from the USS Constitution and the Age of Fighting Sail
The critical link between design and performance, the benefits of cultivating the workforce, the importance of establishing organizational structure and roles and responsibilities, the power of knowing and supporting the mission, the power of harvesting ideas from subordinates, and the rewards of being willing to take calculated risks are timeless concepts.

Combined image interpretation with sensitivity encoding diffusion-weighted imaging and T2-weighted fast spin-echo and dual-echo T1-weighted fast field-echo MR imaging yielded better accuracy in the detection of hepatic metastases than did superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO)-enhanced MR imaging; these examinations have the potential to replace SPIO-enhanced MR imaging in the preoperative evaluation of hepatic metastases in the near future.
