For elderly patients with lung cancer, a preoperative CT-based coronary artery calcium score > 40 was associated with a 53 percent higher risk of all-cause mortality after surgery, according to new study findings.

Drs. Charles Liu and Jonathan Russin discuss the benefits and potential of fPACT, the alternative to functional MRI.

In comparison to radiologist assessment, the use of AI to pre-screen patients with low-dose CT lung cancer screening provided a 12 percent reduction in mean interpretation time with a slight increase in specificity and a slight decrease in the recall rate, according to new research.

KA Imaging President and Chief Executive Officer Amol Karnick and Chief Technology Officer Karim S. Karim, Ph.D., offer insights into current X-ray imaging trends, as well as opportunities for innovation.

Artificial intelligence demonstrated higher AUC, sensitivity, and specificity than radiologists for detecting coronary artery stenosis > 50 percent on computed tomography angiography (CTA), according to a new 17-study meta-analysis.

In comparison to a model based on clinicopathological risk factors, a CT radiomics-based machine learning model offered greater than a 10 percent higher AUC for predicting five-year recurrence-free survival in patients with non-metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC).
