In individuals who have not completed a DEXA scan, head CT conducted for other reasons can offer insight into patients’ frontal bone density, a potential marker of osteoporosis.
Alcohol dependence and depression are known to affect the functional connectivity of the brain, but when the two co-occur, connectivity between certain regions is significantly worse, new MRI study shows.
A team of experts determined that correlating masses initially detected on MRI are significantly more likely to result in a cancer diagnosis than other common findings.
Researchers found that cancer risk in premenopausal women with fatty breasts at initial imaging nearly doubled if an increase in density was observed during their second and third mammograms.
The ambitious project seeks to exponentially increase new data within the U.K. Biobank, a prominent large-scale biomedical database and research resource.
A new analysis published in Radiology details signs of persistent pulmonary dysfunction in children who have recovered from a COVID infection or who are experiencing symptoms of long-COVID.
“Results of this case-control study suggest that even for maximum univariate biological differences, deviations between patients with MDD and healthy controls were remarkably small," experts shared in JAMA Psychiatry.
A new analysis offers a detailed comparison of soft-tissue lymphomas and soft-tissue tumors based on imaging characteristics from MRI scans—an area of study that has not yet been rigorously explored, the authors of the paper indicated.
When combined with artificial intelligence-based noise reduction techniques, new photon-counting CT technology can increase the detection of bone disease while also decreasing radiation exposure.
Automated AI-generated measurements combined with annotated CT images can improve treatment planning and help referring physicians and patients better understand their disease, explained Sarah Jane Rinehart, MD, director of cardiac imaging with Charleston Area Medical Center.
Two advanced algorithms—one for CAC scores and another for segmenting cardiac chamber volumes—outperformed radiologists when assessing low-dose chest CT scans.
"Gen AI can help tackle repetitive tasks and provide insights into massive datasets, saving valuable time," Thomas Kurian, CEO of Google Cloud, said Tuesday.
