In a multinational, multicenter study of over 1,000 patients with recurrent prostate cancer, researchers developed and validated a nomogram that achieved a 72 percent concordance index for the prediction of biochemical recurrence after PSMA PET-guided salvage radiotherapy.

In what may be the first comparative study of the polygenic risk score and the computed tomography (CT)-derived coronary artery calcium (CAC) score for assessing coronary heart disease (CHD) risk, researchers found that the CAC score was associated with significant improvements in assessing and stratifying risk for the development of CHD in middle-aged to older adults.

Review the case study and test your knowledge to make the correct diagnosis.

In a subgroup analysis of patients with intracerebral hemorrhage who had intraventicular hemorrhage (IVH) growth, researchers found that hypodensities on non-contrast computed tomography (CT) were associated with more than double the risk for greater than 1 mL of expanded IVH (eIVH).

Whether it’s the proverbial “bad penny” case that crashes PACS or the perception that positive computed tomography angiography (CTA) exams for pulmonary arterial clots come in sets of three, suspicions can emerge here and there in radiology.

In a recently published review, radiology researchers from the University of Wisconsin discussed the potential and key considerations for applying accelerated magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) protocols in the assessment of emergent and urgent conditions.

Through artificial intelligence (AI), Neurophet AQUA reportedly provides segmentation and analysis of brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for possible brain atrophy in five minutes.

African American and Asian-Chinese women have a disproportionately higher prevalence of fibroids, according to newly published transvaginal ultrasound findings in a diverse population of nearly 1,000 women.

Unvaccinated people with COVID-19 who undergo angiographic reperfusion after acute ischemic stroke may have a greater than fivefold risk of continued infarct growth in comparison to unvaccinated people without COVID-19, according to computed tomography perfusion (CTP) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings from a recently published study.

The artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled CT 3500 system reportedly reduces patient positioning time by 23 percent, improves low-contrast detectability by 60 percent and facilitates up to an 80 percent reduction in radiation dosing.

In a recent video interview, David Ouyang, M.D., shared insights from two recent studies he co-authored on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to improve initial assessment of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) on echocardiography and ascertain cardiac risks associated with changes in the left ventricle sphericity index seen on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

In a large retrospective study of 26,455 participants from the National Lung Screening Trial, low dose computed tomography (LDCT) exams revealed significant incidental findings (SIFs), ranging from emphysema to suspicious lesions, in 8,954 participants.

The United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) has drawn praise for lowering the age threshold for initial mammography screening from 50 to 40 years of age in updated draft recommendations for breast cancer screening, but critics warn that biennial screening is not sufficient for higher-risk populations.

The DRX-Rise Mobile X-ray System reportedly combines optimal image quality with enhanced maneuverability and ease of use for radiologists.
