Abstract

T he central theme of this Special Edition is to address and manage patients’ anxiety with nonpharmacologic and noninvasive approaches during imaging studies and imaging-guided procedures. These procedures are commonly viewed as ‘‘high-tech’’ because of their advanced, complex technologies that in turn can be intimidating uncomfortable and unfamiliar to many patients. Advanced procedures often demand a high degree of patient cooperation to achieve their intended objective of delivering high-quality care. Not infrequently invasive and pharmacologic means are required to ensure patients’ cooperation during the imaging and imaging-guided procedures. In this Special Edition, we provide a succinct overview of the experience using various integrative medicine strategies of noninvasive and nonpharmacologic approaches for diagnostic imaging and imaging-guided therapy, and their efficacy and mode of action, including psychology and neuroscience perspective. We envision the Special Edition’s focus on integrative medicine approaches to bring together, in an ‘‘integrative’’ and multidisciplinary way, both advanced technologies and patient-centered integrative health and psychology concepts to optimize the success of advanced diagnostic imaging and imaging-guided therapies. This is relevant and innovative and may offer insights beyond conventional wisdom and beyond the scope of many current scientific and medical journals. This Special Edition consists of 2 parts that both support its central theme with slightly different focus in the relative emphasis of their constituent articles. Part 1 discusses the challenges for high-tech imaging and related procedures, and how integrative medicine

期刊介绍: Topics in Magnetic Resonance Imaging is a leading information resource for professionals in the MRI community. This publication supplies authoritative, up-to-the-minute coverage of technical advances in this evolving field as well as practical, hands-on guidance from leading experts. Six times a year, TMRI focuses on a single timely topic of interest to radiologists. These topical issues present a variety of perspectives from top radiological authorities to provide an in-depth understanding of how MRI is being used in each area.
