National Mammography Day: A Closer Look at Recent Studies and Breast Cancer Screening

New research presented at the Society for Breast Imaging (SBI) conference suggests that abbreviated MRI is comparable to full MRI in assessing pathologic complete response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer.

In the third episode of a three-part podcast, Anand Narayan, M.D., Ph.D., and Amy Patel, M.D., discuss the challenges of expanded breast cancer screening amid a backdrop of radiologist shortages and ever-increasing volume on radiology worklists.

In comparison to native 64-mT MRI, the deep learning generative model LowGAN offered enhanced white matter lesion conspicuity and image quality in a study involving patients with multiple sclerosis.

In the second episode of a three-part podcast, Anand Narayan, M.D., Ph.D., and Amy Patel, M.D., discuss recent studies published by the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) that suggested moving to more of a risk-adapted model for mammography screening.

The additional FDA 510(k) clearance for the AI-powered cmAngio platform covers use of the software for GE HealthCare mammography systems.

An emerging nomogram model for intra-tumoral heterogeneity quantification with breast MRI demonstrated an average 85 percent sensitivity in external validation testing for predicting pathologic complete response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer.
