In comparison to false positives with unassisted radiologist interpretations of DBT exams, AI-only false positive assessments were associated with a significantly higher total of false-positive findings as well as a 33 percent lower frequency of dense breasts, according to a new study of nearly 3,000 women who had screening DBT exams.

New research shows that women, subspecialists and radiologists in non-academic settings had over a 25 percent higher attrition rate in radiology in comparison to men, general radiologists and academic radiologists.

For patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis, switching from oral therapies to subcutaneous monthly administration of the anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody ofatumumab led to over a 98 percent reduction of Gd+ T1 lesions on MRI at 96 weeks.

The Mammo Enhance Heart program combines AI detection of breast arterial calcification (BAC) on screening mammography and subsequent follow-up with a local network of cardiologists.

The Planmed XFI full-body weightbearing cone-beam CT scanner reportedly enables upright and supine patient positioning.

Providing adjunctive AI detection for multiple conditions on CT through a single workflow, the multi-triage platform would be available through Aidoc’s aiOS platform.

While pooled data from 38 studies showed markedly higher sensitivity rates for the use of adjunctive AI for ischemic stroke detection on non-contrast CT exams, researchers noted a high degree of bias and lack of external validation in many of the studies.

The new X-ray platform reportedly offers AI-enhanced automation with patient positioning, quality control and image processing.

In a recent interview, Partho Sengupta, M.D., and Davinder Ramsingh, Ph.D., discussed recent research demonstrating the capability of point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) to facilitate reduced length of stay and significant cost savings in the management of patients with dyspnea.

In a recent interview, Rebecca Smith-Bindman, M.D., discussed new research examining cumulative radiation exposure from imaging, its potential impact on the development of hematologic cancers in children, and keys to judicious imaging and radiation dosing.

New research suggests the combination of multiparametric dual-energy CT and deep learning image reconstruction for liver metastases detection enables a 45 percent reduction in radiation dosing.

Facilitating increased efficiency in radiation therapy planning, the new Rembra RT and Areta RT computed tomography platforms reportedly offer 4D CT capabilities and image reconstruction speeds up to 106 images per second.

Emphasizing enhanced connectivity, the latest version of the Intelligent Radiation Therapy (iRT) software may facilitate improved workflow efficiencies with the planning, performance and reporting for radiation therapy.
