Consistent bullying can take a great mental toll on teenagers. A new study published in the journal Molecular Psychiatry found those who are regularly victimized may be sustaining physical changes to the brain.

Compared to screen film mammography, researchers found digital mammography could more clearly depict calcifications, see through denser breast tissue and allowed the reader to adjust the actual image, according to a new study published Dec. 11 in Radiology.

In patients with prostate cancer, accurate primary staging is important for developing a treatment strategy. A study published in the December issue of the Journal of Nuclear Medicine found whole-body PET/MRI may offer a “one-stop-shop” to do so.

Free non-invasive prostate cancer screenings using multi-parametric MRI—which combines up to three different types of scans for a clearer image of the prostate—may soon be introduced in the U.K., according to a recent report by BBC News.

The Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis (WUSTL) was awarded a five-year, $6.3 million grant to establish a new research center to develop and test novel PET tracers.

An artificial intelligence (AI) technique developed by engineers at MIT in Cambridge, Massachusetts may be used to illuminate transparent features in medical images taken with little to no light. The research was published online Dec. 12 in the journal Physical Review Letters.

At the RSNA’s 2018 Annual Meeting in Chicago, Aidoc announced a new partnership with the American College of Radiology Science Institute to create standard solutions for the integration of AI into medical imaging and radiologists’ daily workflow.

Radiology has continuously been on the forefront of adopting new technologies. But at one institution, it took a bit of training and exposure to existing interactive multimedia reporting features before radiologists were willing to adopt it into clinical practice.

Artificial intelligence (AI) can generate high-quality amyloid PET images from simultaneously acquired MR images and ultra-low-dose PET data, according to a Dec. 11 study published in Radiology.

Researchers from the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota found that 98 percent of digital breast tomosynthesis-detected masses sent to ultrasound directly were adequately evaluated without the use of diagnostic mammography, according to research published Nov. 29 in the British Journal of Radiology.
