Advances in AI — October 2023

In a study involving over 1,000 patients who had coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) exams, AI software demonstrated a 90 percent AUC for assessments of cases > CAD-RADS 3 and 4A and had a 98 percent NPV for obstructive coronary artery disease.

In a second part of a new podcast episode on recently published research on projected radiation-induced cancers from computed tomography (CT) scans, Mahadevappa Mahesh, MS, Ph.D., and Joseph Cavallo, M.D., offer current perspectives on cardiac CT dosing, AI advances and the importance of teamwork in ensuring appropriate dosing for CT.

Emerging research suggests that radiomic breast texture features extracted from full-field digital mammography may bolster prognostic assessments of invasive breast cancer risk beyond traditional risk factors.

In a new podcast, Mahadevappa Mahesh, MS, Ph.D., and Joseph Cavallo, M.D., share their perspectives on recently published research looking at projections for future radiation-induced cancers from computed tomography (CT) scans.

The use of AI software for digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) facilitated a higher cancer detection rate and over double the PPV for exams with abnormal interpretation, according to a newly published study.

The combination of high-performance gradient technology and AI tools with the Signa Sprint MRI reportedly facilitate enhanced MRI workflow efficiencies in cardiac and oncology imaging.
