While the most challenging cases may feel a bit intimidating, they can be affirming opportunities to test our adaptability and willingness to test our acumen in delivering results for patients.

In a recent interview, Amy Patel, M.D., discussed key points of emphasis for legislative advocacy in radiology, including long-term reform in Medicare reimbursement, improved coverage of breast cancer screening and mitigation of the ongoing radiology workforce shortage.

In addition to an August FDA fast track designation for PSMA PET imaging in patients with suspected metastasis, the radiopharmaceutical 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA has earned another fast track designation for imaging of biochemical recurrence.

Doubling of total tumor volume on PSMA PET/CT is 41 percent more likely to reduce overall survival in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), according to new research.

For patients previously assessed with LI-RADS LR-4 and LR-M presentations based on MRI or CT findings, the use of contrast-enhanced ultrasound led to 30 percent of these patients having LR-5 assessments definitive for hepatocellular carcinoma.

An emerging deep learning radiomics model based on biparametric MRI (bpMRI) offered a 14 to 17 percent higher AUC range than PI-RADS scoring for predicting the aggressiveness of prostate cancer, according to new research findings.

The latest ultrasound software update from Clarius includes new artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities, coding assistance and a variety of advances tailored to different fields of medicine.

Previously approved for the detection of neuritic beta amyloid plaque, the PET agent (18F)florbetaben is currently being evaluated in a phase 3 multicenter trial for the diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis.

Emerging research suggests that a deep learning model may offer 92 percent sensitivity in lung tumor detection on CT scans and up to a 59 percent reduction in tumor segmentation time.

For patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), early changes with respect to decreased intra-network connectivity involving the default mode network or salience network may aid in differentiating between the development of Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease, according to new MRI research.

In the second part of a two-part interview, Nina Kottler, M.D., says the transparency emphasis of the recent FDA guidance on AI-enabled software is welcome but needs to go beyond additional documentation to clarify how adjunctive AI is making its decisions.

In an update of previous guidelines from the European Society of Urogenital Radiology published in 2010, a 21-expert panel offered consensus recommendations on the utility of CT, MRI and PET-CT in the staging and follow-up imaging for patients with ovarian cancer.
