Extracellular volume fraction (ECV) assessment with photon-counting CT offered higher sensitivity and comparable specificity and AUC to magnetic resonance elastography (MRE)-derived liver stiffness measurement (LSM) for evaluating patients with stage 2 or higher fibrosis, according to a recent study.
New computed tomography (CT) research in July 2026 ranged from the ongoing impact of AI to significant declines in CT radiation dosing over the past decade to a growing recognition that coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring alone may not be sufficient to convey a true picture of cardiovascular risk stratification.
The AI tools for the newly launched Invenia ABUS Prime ultrasound platform reportedly facilitate a 40 percent increase in scan speed and up to a 93 percent sensitivity rate for lesion detection in women with dense breasts.
While the vague “R/O pathology” has become pervasive filler for clinical history on requests for imaging, a new wave of clinical histories offer a word salad approach that offers equally little insight into the possible ailment of the patient.

In comparison to findings from a similar study in 2014, the national volume computed tomography (CT) dose index (CTDLvol) declined by 9.3 percent, according to newly published research involving 5 million CT exams for over 2.8 million adults in 2025.
In an external test set from a recent study, a combined radiomic/deep learning model for intratumoral computed tomography (CT) threshold segmentation offered an 82.3 percent AUC and 95.4 percent sensitivity for predicting visceral pleural invasion in patients with lung adenocarcinoma < 30 mm.
For biopsy-naïve patients who had radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer, new research suggests that biparametric MRI is comparable to multiparametric MRI for detecting extraprostatic extension.
