Erik L. Ridley[email protected]Artificial IntelligenceAI can boost cancer detection in CT lung screeningA Dutch-led research group has published new evidence that artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms can perform comparably to radiologists in detecting lung cancer on low-dose CT screening examinations.November 1, 2021Clinical NewsDetails emerge of plan to increase imaging capacity in U.K.The U.K. government has pledged to allocate 2.3 billion pounds in its new budget to an initiative aimed at increasing diagnostic services capacity in the National Health Service and clearing the backlog of scans.October 26, 2021Artificial IntelligenceU.K./Dutch team finds evidence gap in automated MRI analysis of dementiaInvestigators from leading facilities in London and the Netherlands have identified a "significant evidence gap" for the use of many available automated volumetric MRI reporting applications in the diagnosis of dementia.October 12, 2021Clinical NewsDutch group reveals progress on peripheral lung nodulesIn a study of over 200 patients, investigators from Radboud University Medical Center in the Netherlands have reported that bronchoscopy guided by conebeam CT and "augmented" fluoroscopy can yield 90% accuracy in biopsying peripheral lung lesions.October 7, 2021Clinical NewsSpotlight falls on abdominal ultrasound delaysA seven-month delay in completing a referral for an abdominal ultrasound scan was "unacceptable" in a case involving a woman later found to have neuroendocrine cancer, according to a report by the New Zealand Health and Disability Commissioner.September 28, 2021Clinical NewsBuilding bridges in radiology will be central theme for ECR 2022Registration is now open for ECR 2022, which will take place between 2 and 6 March and feature an extensive range of both online and onsite activities. The main theme will be "Building Bridges" -- reflecting a multidisciplinary approach to radiology, according to the European Society of Radiology.September 7, 2021Artificial IntelligenceCan AI help to improve radiologist accuracy in prostate MRI?An artificial intelligence (AI)-based computer-aided detection software application can improve the performance of radiologists in reading biparametric prostate MRI exams, according to Swiss-led research.August 31, 2021Artificial IntelligenceDutch team reports success with CAD software for lung nodulesResearchers from a large teaching hospital in the Netherlands have found artificial intelligence-based computer-aided detection (CAD) software can be highly sensitive for detecting pulmonary nodules on CT exams in clinical practice. They posted their results on 14 August in Clinical Radiology.August 24, 2021Artificial IntelligenceDoubt cast on AI's readiness to assess pulmonary embolismInvestigators from Freiburg, Germany, have found artificial intelligence (AI) can't yet be relied upon to detect pulmonary embolism on CT pulmonary angiography in clinical practice.August 12, 2021Artificial IntelligenceDeep learning gives boost to hepatocellular carcinoma diagnosisResearchers have trained a deep-learning model to detect hepatocellular carcinoma on contrast-enhanced liver CT using over 7,500 patients. The algorithm -- called HCCNet -- yielded statistically comparable accuracy to three experienced radiologists.August 10, 2021Previous PagePage 5 of 58Next PageTop StoriesCTCT pearls from Ireland’s top orthopedic hospitalDeveloping diagnostic reference levels for common CT procedures, along with an emphasis on training of CT radiographers, are key factors in the optimization process, researchers from Dublin have asserted.Molecular ImagingSPECT/CT identifies prostate cancer patients with poor outcomesUltrasoundMore ultrasound cuts risks in pregnancies with less fetal movementDigital X-RayGerman team aims to cut radiation dose in IRCTHow well do LLMs interpret bone fracture textual CT reports?
