Here's what to expect this week on Diagnostic Imaging.
In this week’s preview, here are some highlights of what you can expect to see coming soon:
Racial disparities are a known problem in healthcare, including radiology. These inequities can also lead to diagnostic delays. An article published later this week will take a look at how these racial disparities and diagnostic delays affect women with breast cancer.

Emergency situations – pandemic or otherwise – can cause great confusion. Having a well-designed strategy in place can ensure the fastest and most accurate dissemination of information and care. Look for an article later this week about the impact of a radiology call center hotline.

Dental pathology can be overlooked in radiologic scans. But, a new investigation published in the Journal of Digital Imaging, shows that adding a one-slice series on a CT scan of the neck can reduce time-to-diagnosis for patients. Look for the article alter this week.

MRI-Based AI Radiomics Model Offers 'Robust' Prediction of Perineural Invasion in Prostate Cancer
July 26th 2024A model that combines MRI-based deep learning radiomics and clinical factors demonstrated an 84.8 percent ROC AUC and a 92.6 percent precision-recall AUC for predicting perineural invasion in prostate cancer cases.
Breast MRI Study Examines Common Factors with False Negatives and False Positives
July 24th 2024The absence of ipsilateral breast hypervascularity is three times more likely to be associated with false-negative findings on breast MRI and non-mass enhancement lesions have a 4.5-fold likelihood of being linked to false-positive results, according to new research.
Can Polyenergetic Reconstruction Help Resolve Streak Artifacts in Photon Counting CT?
July 22nd 2024New research looking at photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) demonstrated significantly reduced variation and tracheal air density attenuation with polyenergetic reconstruction in contrast to monoenergetic reconstruction on chest CT.
