Don't delay mammograms after COVID vaccine. Women do not need to delay their mammogram appointment after COVID-19 vaccination. A new study suggests not delaying mammograms due to getting a COVID vaccine because cancers may go un detected. The RSNA study showed several examples of swollen lymph nodes that appeared to be from the vaccine, but turned out to be cancers. Women should not delay getting mammograms after COVID vaccines. Do not delay getting a mammogram with the COVID Vaccine.

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.
