Image display firm Barco has introduced MXRT-5450, a new display controller with dual DVI connectors.

MXRT-5450 features AMD's FirePro professional graphics capability, and it offers improved performance for handling large datasets as well as better OpenGL and DirectX functionality, according to the vendor.

Its GPU is based on PCIe Gen 2 x 16-architecture and can accommodate image loading, roaming, and manipulation of images with up to 5.8-megapixel grayscale resolution, Barco said. MXRT-5450 is optimized to work with Barco's Nio and Coronis display offerings, as well as its MediCal QAWeb software, according to the firm.

Low-quality axial T2-weighted MRI scans with gradient-weighted class activation mapping. The low-quality MRI scans (top row) show blurred structures and artifacts making zonal and capsule boundaries indistinguishable. On the same scans with gradient-weighted class activation map overlays (bottom row), red indicates regions that were most heavily weighted by the deep learning model toward the low-quality prediction.

Radiologists can identify three out of four AI-generated images

Radiologists found it particularly difficult to distinguish between real and AI-generated CT and MR images.
July 17, 2026
Top eight incorrectly classified synthetic images (Most convincing fake images). Images A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H were the most infrequently correctly classified images at 24%, 43%, 59%, 64%, 69%, 71%, 71% and 73% respectively. All images are AI-generated. Images A, B and C are head CTs. Images D and E are chest CTs. Image F is a cardiac CT. Image G is a musculoskeletal MRI. Image H is a head MRI.

Incorrect AI suggestions influence reader performance on mammography
By Amerigo Allegretto
The biggest impact on reader performance stemmed from false-negative AI suggestions.
July 14, 2026
A normal mammogram confirmed by three-year radiologic follow-up illustrates reader-marked regions of interest (ROIs) during (A) unaided (round 1) and (B) artificial intelligence (AI)–assisted (round 2) reading. Each colored dot represents an ROI for recall by a human reader. Readers could mark more than one ROI per case, represented by multiple dots of the same color. During AI-assisted reading, the AI system displayed three visible prompts: two with suspicion of malignancy scores of 35% (left mediolateral oblique [L MLO] and craniocaudal [L CC]) and one with a suspicion of malignancy score of 10% (right craniocaudal [R CC]), shown as polygonal overlays. Without AI, six of 10 readers (60%) marked a false-positive ROI. With AI assistance, this fell to two of 10 (20%). R MLO = right mediolateral oblique.
