Emerging Concepts and Perspectives in Radiology: Video Interviews From RSNA 2022

New research suggests that AI-powered assessment of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) for short-term breast cancer risk may help address racial disparities with detection and shortcomings of traditional mammography in women with dense breasts.

Nina Kottler, M.D., chief medical officer of AI at Radiology Partners, discusses, during RSNA 2020, what new developments the annual meeting provided about these technologies, sessions to access, and what to expect in the coming year.

Emerging research from the RSNA conference suggests that two-dimensional mammography would only detect 41 percent of detectable breast cancer.

Rich Heller, M.D., with Radiology Partners, and Lucy Spalluto, M.D., with Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, discuss the highlights of their RSNA 2020 session on health disparities, focusing on the underlying factors and challenges radiologists face to providing greater access to care.

The computed tomography device reportedly offers enhanced post-processing of images as well as bolstered image reconstruction capabilities with an 80 percent reduction in radiation dosing.

In a cohort of over 160 patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA), including grade 4 in nearly half of the cases, genicular artery embolization led to an 87 percent improvement in the quality of life index, according to research presented at the recent RSNA conference.
