While calling for a universal breast cancer risk assessment by the age of 25, the American College of Radiology (ACR) emphasized that ascertaining screening needs prior to the age of 40 is particularly important in high-risk populations such as Black women, who are 42 percent more likely to die from breast cancer in comparison to non-Hispanic White women.

In a review of the literature, this author discusses the viability of artificial intelligence (AI), parallel imaging, compressed sensing and simultaneous multi-slice excitation for improving the scan times and use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to facilitate CyberKnife treatment.

The artificial intelligence (AI)-powered Neuro Suite reportedly enables radiologists to access leading neurological AI algorithm solutions in the field, including the brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) segmentation capabilities of the Combinostics’ algorithm that can help differentiate degenerative pathologies such as Alzheimer’s disease and dementia.

Researchers suggested that overnight use of a power-save mode on outpatient magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) devices in the United States could reduce annual energy consumption by 76,288.2 megawatt hours (MWh) and add up to $10.7 million in cost savings.

Lamenting a lack of control over imaging requests from referring clinicians, this author suggests that a more collaborative approach between referrers and radiologists may facilitate more efficient use of imaging.

In a recent lecture at the American Roentgen Ray Society (ARRS) 2023 Annual Meeting, Andrew Callen, M.D., discussed a variety of imaging features associated with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks, the diagnostic utility of the Bern score as well as the merits of 3D T2FS MRI and dynamic computed tomography myelography.

Given the increasing prevalence of breast reconstruction, researchers discussed key signs of common complications on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultrasound and other imaging during a recent presentation at the American Roentgen Ray Society (ARRS) 2023 Annual Meeting in Honolulu, Hawaii.

Three-dimensional (3D) slice-to-volume (SVR) fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has over six times the fetal optic pathway visualization rate of standard two-dimensional MRI, according to new research presented at the American Roentgen Ray Society (ARRS) 2023 Annual Meeting in Honolulu, Hawaii.

Researchers found that higher shift volumes, longer imaging interpretation times and weekend work were significantly associated with increased errors in neuroradiology.

Consensus recommendations from the Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance provide pertinent insights on the unique abilities of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to provide optimal characterization of myocardial tissue and diagnosis of COVID-19-related myocardial injuries.

In the study of 119 patients who had endovascular treatment for intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis, multivariable analysis revealed that post-op ischemic brain lesions on diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were 3.6 times more likely to occur in patients who smoke cigarettes and 2.9 times more likely in patients who had multiple operative attempts.

In a study of 128 patients who had breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) exams after COVID-19 booster vaccination, researchers noted that nearly 19 percent of the cohort had equal to or greater than 0.2 cm of increased lymph node cortical thickness.

Emerging research suggests that cardiac MRI findings of late gadolinium enhancement, native T1 values and extracellular volume fraction may predict sudden cardiac death-related events in patients with nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy.
