A three-dimensional (3D) deep residual network accurately detected and classified cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) on susceptibility-weighted magnetic resonance images (SWIs), reported a team of San Francisco-based researchers.

There is relatively little understood about infant brain development. A team of Finnish researchers sought to explore the brain structures of newborns in a new study published in Brain Structure & Function.

“We’d better make some rules because otherwise, you can have willy-nilly 3D printing...you can 3D print off your iPhone if you have the right hook-ups, right? But we don’t want that. We want to do really high-quality work," said Frank J. Rybicki, MD, PhD, at the American Heart Association’s 2018 Scientific Sessions in Chicago according to a report by Cardiovascular Business.

Sunrise, Florida-based medical group Mednax announced it is launching an artificial intelligence (AI) incubator focused on creating innovative radiology solutions.

“We need new, improved methods in which as few contrast agents as possible affect as much of the signal-emitting substance, which is typically water," said study author Leif Schröder, PhD, a researcher at the Leibniz Research Institute of Molecular Pharmacology (FMP) in Berlin.

Artificial intelligence (AI) and big data can help radiologists provide better care while reducing costs, but a majority of institutions lack the infrastructure to optimally consume and utilize these technologies, said Paul Chang, MD, of the University of Chicago, during RSNA's 2018 Annual Meeting.

Using a variation of an unconventional imaging approach called “ghost imaging," an international team of researchers has successfully taken low dose three-dimensional (3D) x-ray images which may help make screening for early signs of diseases and cancer cheaper, safer and more accessible.

Prenatal and postnatal ultrasonography alone—compared to combining the modality with MRI—was found to detect the most abnormal cases of Zika virus-related brain injury in infants and unborn fetuses, according to new research published online Nov. 26 in JAMA Pediatrics.

Cryoablation—commonly called cryotherapy—demonstrated early effectiveness in treating women with low-risk breast cancer, reported researchers during a Nov. 29 session at RSNA’s 2018 Annual Meeting.

Tech company Amazon has launched a new medical language processing service that, by using artificial intelligence (AI), can extract data from patient records and reports to help healthcare professionals make better treatment decisions, address data privacy and decrease overall costs, according to a report published Nov. 28 by TechCrunch.
