Radiological Society of North America (RSNA)

The Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) is a non-profit organization that represents 31 radiologic subspecialties from 145 countries around the world. We provide high-quality educational resources, including continuing education credits toward physicians’ certification maintenance, host the world’s largest radiology conference and publish five top peer-reviewed journals.

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.

RSNA21: Two-thirds of states did not prioritize vulnerable cancer patients during initial COVID vaccine rollout

Regulators must ensure that vulnerable populations receive their booster shots in a timely fashion.

RSNA21: Deep learning automatically labels coronary arteries to produce structured CCTA reports

The algorithm yielded a 94.4% accuracy for labeling arteries in accordance with the Society of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography guidelines.

Around the web

CCTA is being utilized more and more for the diagnosis and management of suspected coronary artery disease. An international group of specialists shared their perspective on this ongoing trend.

The new technology shows early potential to make a significant impact on imaging workflows and patient care.
