Immunomedics pursues breast imaging

For women with intermediate risk and a personal history of breast cancer, an emerging AI system offered an 81 percent AUC for breast cancer detection, according to new research.

In the third episode of a three-part podcast, Anand Narayan, M.D., Ph.D., and Amy Patel, M.D., discuss the challenges of expanded breast cancer screening amid a backdrop of radiologist shortages and ever-increasing volume on radiology worklists.

In light of increasing imaging volume, retirements and burnout in radiology, this author suggests that technologies such as portable X-ray devices may have a significant impact.

In the second episode of a three-part podcast, Anand Narayan, M.D., Ph.D., and Amy Patel, M.D., discuss recent studies published by the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) that suggested moving to more of a risk-adapted model for mammography screening.

Text messaging may go a long way toward reducing the costs and potential health repercussions that can occur with cancellations, no-shows and no-gos in radiology practice.

A predictive model for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) recurrence, based on clinical parameters and CT findings, demonstrated an 85.2 percent AUC and 83.3 percent sensitivity rate, according to external validation testing in a new study.
