Emerging research shows the adjunctive use of automated breast ultrasound with mammography has similar sensitivity for breast cancer detection as adjunctive handheld ultrasound but may offer reduced false-positive rates in women with dense breasts.

The TE Air reportedly combines enhanced point-of-care ultrasound imaging with an array of practical benefits for radiologists.

In a study of over 800 women with breast cancer, researchers found that African-American women had a higher rate of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and were less likely to have irregular masses in screening exams in comparison to non-Latina White women.

Emerging research showed the combination of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) with perfluorobutane and modified 2017 LI-RADS criteria had comparable sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy to current magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) approaches to detecting hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) lesions.

The Sonimage MX1 Platinum device reportedly offers a number of features to provide optimal ultrasound image resolution in a variety of point-of -care settings.

In a new study looking at pre-operative assessment of low-grade endometrial cancer, researchers found that while magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) had 20 percent higher specificity than transvaginal ultrasound for deep myometrial invasion, there was no difference in sensitivity.

The retrospective study of patients 21 years of age or younger found that a deep learning algorithm and use of the American College of Radiology’s Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (TI-RADS) both had more than a 26 percent greater sensitivity for differentiating thyroid nodules on ultrasound in comparison to radiologist assessment.

While facilitating interdisciplinary colloaboration is a central objective with enterprise imaging platforms, this author says implementation of these platforms must ensure optimal patient privacy in sensitive cases involving abuse, assault and domestic violence.

In a recent letter to U.S. Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-CT), the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said a final rule on amendments to the Mammography Quality Standards Act (MQSA), including an oft-delayed national standard for breast density notification in mammography reporting, may be published in the next couple of months.
