The 10-study meta-analysis demonstrated that contrast-enhanced mammography has a 95 percent sensitivity rate and an 81 percent specificity rate for diagnosing suspicious lesions in women with dense breasts.

In finalized updates to breast cancer screening recommendations, the United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) advocates biennial mammography screening for women 40 to 74 years of age and notes insufficient evidence for the use of supplemental MRI in women with dense breasts.

In a recent interview, Steven Raman, M.D., discussed the use of MRI-guided transurethral ultrasound (TULSA) in the treatment of intermediate risk prostate cancer and key research findings with one- and five-year outcomes.

While noting a variety of pitfalls with the chatbot ranging from hallucinations to improper citations, the review authors found the use of ChatGPT in radiology demonstrated “high performance” in 37 out of 44 studies.

An emerging deep learning radiomics model, based on B-mode ultrasound and color Doppler flow imaging, demonstrated a 91 percent AUC for predicting lymphovascular invasion in a multicenter study of women with invasive breast cancer.

Combining a support crossing catheter with intravascular ultrasound imaging, the Provisio SLT IVUS System offers simultaneous real-time visualization and measurement of vessel lumen.

One of the recommendations from the European Society of Breast Imaging (EUSOBI) is annual breast MRI exams starting at 25 years of age for women deemed to be at high risk for breast cancer.

In a recent interview, Kenneth J. Pienta, M.D., discussed the impact of piflufolastat F18, current directions in research with other PSMA-targeted radiotracers and future possibilities for the role of PSMA PET in the imaging paradigm for prostate cancer.

In comparison to energy-integrating detector CT for the workup of suspected acute pulmonary embolism, the use of photon-counting detector CT reduced radiation dosing by 48 percent, according to newly published research.

The artificial intelligence (AI)-powered applications reportedly allow clinicians to diagnose pulmonary edema and measure left ventricle ejection fraction within seconds.
