New research shows that higher total lesion volume in the brain for former football players is directly associated with higher vascular risks and changes in white matter hyperintensity-associated biomarkers of Alzheimer’s disease.

In a study of over 30,000 screening digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) exams for over 8,000 women, researchers found a specificity rate of 95.1 percent, a false negative rate of 2.1 (per 1,000 exams) and an abnormal interpretation rate (AIR) of 5.7 percent.

In a study examining the potential of the large language models ChatGPT-4 and Bard to follow ACR Appropriateness Criteria for breast cancer, lung cancer, ovarian cancer and colorectal cancer screening, researchers noted “impressive accuracy in making radiologic clinical decisions.”

Contrast-enhanced mammography had a 98 percent sensitivity rate for diagnosing invasive lobular carcinoma and provided high conspicuity for 82 percent of detected lesions, according to research presented at the recent Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) conference.

In one of the study periods from recently published research on rectal MRI acquisition, researchers found that 39.7 percent of rectal MRI exams adhered to guidelines from the Society of Abdominal Radiology (SAR) and only 6.8 percent followed guidelines from the European Society of Gastrointestinal and Abdominal Radiology (ESGAR).

In a recent interview, Alexander Rau, M.D., discussed emerging research, presented at the recent RSNA conference, that shows the capability of diffusion microstructural imaging to differentiate subtle shifts in microstructural gray matter associated with common symptomatology of long Covid.

The use of 68Ga-RM2 PET/MRI demonstrated a 35 percent higher sensitivity rate than MRI alone for the diagnosis of biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer, according to research recently presented at the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) conference.

Emerging research suggests that adjunctive artificial intelligence (AI) improves sensitivity for a variety of abnormalities on chest X-rays regardless of radiologist experience level, including an average 26 percent increase in sensitivity for pneumothorax.

In an interview at the recent RSNA conference, Catherine Everett, M.D., shared her perspective on the radiology workforce shortage, offered insights on recruiting radiologists to rural areas and emphasized the urgency of bolstering access to radiologists and other health-care professionals for at-risk communities.

Emerging research suggests that stand-alone artificial intelligence (AI) assessment of breast ultrasound exams could eliminate over 45 percent of unnecessary follow-up exams.
