The Executive Order on AI: Promising Development in Radiology or 'HIPAA for AI'?
In a recent interview about President Biden’s recent executive order on artificial intelligence (AI), Morris Panner, the president of Intelerad Medical Systems, shared his concerns that the executive order, while well-intentioned, may wind up stifling innovation and the continued evolution of AI in radiology.
Study Shows Benefits of AI in Detecting Lung Cancer Risk in Non-Smokers
Artificial intelligence (AI) assessments of chest X-rays identified 28 percent of a 17,000 plus cohort of never-smokers as being at high-risk for lung cancer, according to research to be presented at the annual Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) conference next week.
Could an Emerging AI System Lead to Earlier Autism Detection with DT-MRI?
Through assessment of diffusion tensor MRI of the brain, a new AI system reportedly offers a 97 percent sensitivity rate in diagnosing autism in children between two to four years of age, according to research to be presented at the annual Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) conference next week.
Study Suggests CT-Guided Injections May Restore Sense of Smell in Patients with Long COVID
Utilizing computed tomography (CT) guidance, researchers have found that performing a minimally invasive anesthetic injection into the stellate ganglia may help address parosmia due to COVID-19, according to study results that will be presented at the annual Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) conference next week.
Is Photon Counting CT a Better Option than Dual-Energy CT for Pulmonary Angiography?
Performing computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) with a high-pitch photon counting detector (PCD) offers enhanced signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) at a reduced radiation dose in comparison to employing an energy-integrating detector (EID), according to new research.
Do Bone Scans Over Stage Prostate Cancer? What a Multicenter Study Reveals
Fifty-seven percent of patients with prostate cancer diagnosed with osseous metastases on bone scans had negative findings on PSMA PET imaging, according to findings from an international multicenter comparative study.
New Dual-Source CT Device May be Cost-Effective Alternative for Smaller Facilities
Offering a combination of simplified and personalized scanning for patients at significantly lower lifecycle costs than other dual-source CT systems, the Somatom Pro.Pulse may be a viable option for smaller rural facilities and outpatient imaging centers.
Samsung Debuts New Ultrasound Modality Geared Toward Women's Health and Urology
Combining enhanced imaging capabilities, workflow efficiencies and artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled technology to improve the diagnosis and management of health conditions in women, Samsung has launched the V6 ultrasound system.
Study Says Contrast-Enhanced Mammography Offers Comparable Breast Cancer Detection to MRI
In findings from an enriched cohort of asymptomatic patients with screening-detected abnormalities, researchers found that contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) was superior to conventional mammography and offered equivalent detection of breast cancer in comparison to breast MRI and abbreviated breast MRI.
Adjunctive Brain Volume Quantification Tool for MRI Gets FDA Clearance
Providing automated brain volume calculations based on MRI images, NeuroShield’s artificial intelligence (AI)-powered technology may help facilitate treatment for neurodegenerative conditions ranging from Alzheimer’s disease to epilepsy.
Is Surveillance Imaging Necessary After Primary Radiation for Head and Neck Cancer?
For patients who had a complete metabolic response to radiation treatment for head and neck cancer, the authors of a recent study found that surveillance imaging with PET/CT, MRI or CT did not improve outcomes in comparison to expectant management.
