In a study of over 463,000 women who had screening mammography exams, adjunctive AI led to a 17.6 percent higher detection rate for breast cancer and a three percent increase in positive predictive value for recalls.

After propensity score matching in a study of over 3,000 women with a personal history of breast cancer, researchers found that surveillance breast MRI facilitated a 59 percent lower risk in advanced presentations of second breast cancers.

The appropriate use criteria (AUC) reflect updates to the 2013 AUC for amyloid PET and new criteria for tau PET in the diagnosis and monitoring of patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI).

In a recent interview, Arlene Sussman, M.D., discussed her experience in leading vRad’s teleradiology breast imaging service, how to foster personalized care in breast cancer screening, utilizing AI to help mitigate daunting worklists and improving access to subspecialty care.

Survey results revealed that 71 percent of clinicians preferred adjunctive AI in facilitating triage of brain MRI scans and 58 percent were comfortable utilizing AI triage without input from radiologists.

For hepatocellular carcinoma screening, a 19-study meta-analysis found the abbreviated MRI sequencing protocol of T2-weighted MRI, diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and hepatobiliary phase (HBP) imaging offered 88 percent sensitivity and 93 percent specificity.

There may be a certain denial about the capability of proposed radiology workforce solutions and technological advances such as AI to enhance our efficiency.

In patients with high-risk, hormone sensitive prostate cancer who had no evidence of metastasis on conventional imaging, PSMA PET revealed polymetastatic disease in 24 percent of patients and M1 disease staging in 46 percent of patients.

Adjunctive AI offered greater than seven percent increases in sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy for ultrasound detection of ovarian cancer in comparison to unassisted clinicians who lacked ultrasound expertise, according to findings from new international multicenter research.

For patients with localized prostate cancer and PI-RADS 3 or higher lesions, MRI-guided micro-ultrasound multifiber focal laser ablation had an 18 percent recurrence rate at one year, according to newly published research.

In the third part of a three-part interview from the recent RSNA conference, Mark Traill, M.D., discusses the potential of image-based risk assessment artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms in bolstering adherence to screening protocols for women at high risk for breast cancer.

Seventy percent of LR-M hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cases were associated with rapid growth in comparison to 12.5 percent of LR-4 HCCs and 28.5 percent of LR-4 HCCs, according to a new study.
