Kuhl brings the curtain down in Montreal
By Erik L. Ridley
Better risk assessment methods and more appropriate utilization of imaging modalities such as breast MRI open the door for personalized cancer screening strategies, Prof. Christiane Kuhl told delegates in the closing Mansfield Lecture at last week's International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine annual meeting in Montreal.

MR imaging: Quo vadis?
By Dr. Peter Rinck, PhD
Surprisingly little has changed since MRI became a clinical tool in the 1980s, writes the Maverinck. In the first of a two-part column, he presents a personal view of the main ongoing controversies and unresolved issues in the modality, including magnetic field strength and flawed research.

French survey reveals what radiologists expect from AI
By Frances Rylands-Monk
A new survey from France has shown that most radiologists believe artificial intelligence (AI) will reduce medical errors and allow them to spend more time with patients, but many of them still do not use AI. They fear they lack sufficient knowledge, and this may hamper future practice.

Postmortem pediatric imaging proves value
By Philip Ward
What are the key indications, advantages, and limitations of postmortem pediatric imaging? Which modality works best? And what is the role of 3D printing? Dr. Owen Arthurs from London's Great Ormond Street Hospital provides some answers.

Novel MRI technique diagnoses, monitors kidney fibrosis
By Gregor Skeldon
German researchers have developed a method to image, diagnose, and stage kidney fibrosis. By using an MRI contrast agent specific to elastin, they demonstrated the use of their technique for longitudinal diagnosis and monitoring of patients.

3D MRI captures changes to fetal head during birth
By Abraham Kim
Researchers from France have used 3D MRI to visualize changes to the shape of the fetal brain and skull during the second stage of labor. The images revealed that fetal heads may experience greater stress than previously imagined, according to an article published online on 15 May in PLOS One.

AI image interpretation platforms come of age
By Dr. Neelam Dugar
Image interpretation systems involving artificial intelligence (AI) have improved dramatically, and huge potential now exists for boosting patient management decisions with image preanalysis by AI algorithms, writes Dr. Neelam Dugar. Adopting common standards is vital, however.

How to train the medical physicists of the future
By Tami Freeman, PhD
At the recent European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology meeting in Milan, a debate examined the skills that medical physicists will require in 10 years' time and asked how training for medical physicists specializing in radiation oncology should develop over the next decade. Five expert speakers presented their thoughts -- and then let the audience decide.

Whole-body MRI gets cancer detection boost
By Philip Ward
Fresh evidence shows that whole-body MRI may be quicker and cheaper than standard imaging for detecting the spread of colorectal and non-small cell lung cancers, while being just as sensitive. The findings from two prospective trials involving nearly 500 patients across 16 U.K. hospitals were published on 9 May in Lancet Gastroenterology & Hepatology and Lancet Respiratory Medicine.

U.K. issues new advice on gadolinium contrast safety
By Philip Ward
The U.K. Royal College of Radiologists has updated its guidance on the administration of gadolinium-based contrast agents to adult patients. The 23-page document addresses concerns about possible long-term gadolinium retention in the brain and the risk of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis.

AI can help facilitate gadolinium-free cardiac MRI
By Erik L. Ridley
Chinese and U.K. investigators have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm that can detect chronic myocardial infarction on noncontrast-enhanced cardiac cine MRI. This might avoid the need for gadolinium-based contrast, according to an article posted online on 30 April in Radiology.

Italians use AR to bolster prostate cancer surgery
By Abraham Kim
Italian researchers have used augmented reality (AR) technology to overlay dynamic virtual 3D models based on MRI scans directly onto patient anatomy. In a recent article in European Urology, they found their method to be highly effective for prostate cancer surgery.
