Based on survey findings and subsequent voting from radiologists at nine facilities, the Society of Abdominal Radiology has issued new consensus recommendations on the use of adult abdominal photon-counting CT.
Philips to Introduce New CT and MRI Systems at ASTRO Conference
September 26th 2025Facilitating 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.
Should Chest CT be Routine for Prostate Cancer Patients on Androgen Deprivation Therapy?
August 20th 2025Nine months after initiation of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), prostate cancer patients with higher myocardial extracellular volume (ECV) — derived from chest contrast-enhanced CT — had over a fourfold higher risk for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), according to new research.
Can Deep Learning Enhance Low-Dose Chest CT Assessment of Lung Cancer Risk?
August 6th 2025While a CT-based deep learning model demonstrated a 91 percent AUC for predicting lung cancer risk within one year, researchers noted other mixed results in a new study involving over 18,000 individuals.
Twenty Years of CT Colonography for Colorectal Cancer Screening: What the Research Reveals
July 29th 2025Computed tomography colonography (CTC) demonstrated a 91.6 percent positive predictive value (PPV) for polyps > 6 mm, according to new research involving over 9,000 patients who underwent CTC for primary asymptomatic colorectal cancer screening.
Can CT-Based Deep Learning Bolster Prognostic Assessments of Ground-Glass Nodules?
June 19th 2025Emerging research shows that a multiple time-series deep learning model assessment of CT images provides 20 percent higher sensitivity than a delta radiomic model and 56 percent higher sensitivity than a clinical model for prognostic evaluation of ground-glass nodules.
Photon-Counting Computed Tomography: Eleven Takeaways from a New Literature Review
May 27th 2025In a review of 155 studies, researchers examined the capabilities of photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) for enhanced accuracy, tissue characterization, artifact reduction and reduced radiation dosing across thoracic, abdominal, and cardiothoracic imaging applications.
Can AI Predict Future Lung Cancer Risk from a Single CT Scan?
May 19th 2025In never-smokers, deep learning assessment of single baseline low-dose computed tomography (CT) scans demonstrated a 79 percent AUC for predicting lung cancer up to six years later, according to new research presented today at the American Thoracic Society (ATS) 2025 International Conference.
