Using less than 1,000 imaging cases, researchers from Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) in Boston were able to train an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm to detect intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) and classify its five subtypes on unenhanced head CT scans, according to research published in the journal Nature Biomedical Engineering.

Radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy resulted in better five-year survival in patients with early-stage pediatric Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) than chemotherapy alone, reported authors of a Jan. 3 study published in JAMA Oncology.

A one-of-a-kind trial is underway testing the GE180 radioactive tracer in humans to potentially better understand the root causes of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported.

A multi-institutional team of researchers found that emergency department (ED) utilization of chest imaging has grown substantially in the U.S. over the last two decades and is likely due to an increased availability of CT scanners and increased pressure on ED physicians to rapidly triage patients, according to a study published Jan. 2 in the Journal of the American College of Radiology.

New research suggests the percentage of women who undergo cervical cancer screenings is much lower than national data has reported, according to a Mayo Clinic study published in the Journal of Women’s Health.

New research published in The American Journal of Psychiatry suggests the brain function of individuals with schizophrenia is more nuanced than previously thought.

Physicians performing coronary angiography on obese patients are exposed to seven times the amount of radiation than when they performed the procedure on those with a normal body weight, according to a Jan. 2 study published in Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions.

A new federal law took effect Jan. 1 requiring all hospitals to post their list prices online. But, as it turns out, what appears online may end up confusing price-conscious patients more than helping them.

Long wait times can negatively impact patient satisfaction, which then harms the patient-centered, value-based care imaging departments seek to provide. But collecting the necessary data for improvements can be difficult, according to the authors of a case study published in the Journal of Digital Imaging.

New research has found that significant differences in radiation dose from CT scans is credited to how medical staff uses imaging scanners. However, setting more consistent dose standards through changes in CT protocols is possible, according to a study published online Jan. 2 in The BMJ.
