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.

Charles E. Kahn, Jr., MD, MS, Editor of the the journal Radiology: Artificial Intelligence, and professor and vice chair of radiology at the University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine. He has been heavily involved in radiology informatics and has seen up close the evolution of radiology toward deeper integration with AI. #RSNA

VIDEO: Use cases and implementation strategies for radiology artificial intelligence

Charles Kahn, Jr., MD, editor of the the journal Radiology: Artificial Intelligence, and professor and vice chair of radiology at the University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine, explains the work involved integrating AI in radiology systems and the role of AI in augmenting patient care.
 

Charles E. Kahn, Jr., MD, MS, editor of the the RSNA journal Radiology: Artificial Intelligence, and professor and vice chair of radiology at the University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine. He discusses the need to validate artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms with your own patient population to determine if it is accurate for a specific institutions patients. He also explains how bias can be inadvertently added into a algorithm, and how the AI may take learning shortcuts. #AI

'Scientific misconduct' cited in more than half of retracted radiology publications

Experts assessed a total of 192 retracted publications—a number that the authors of the study conceded appeared to be growing in more recent years. 

Example of an artificial intelligence (AI) app store on the Sectra website, where Sectra PACS users can select the AI algorithms they want that are already integrated into the Sectra System. Other vendors have followed a similar approach to AI developed by many smaller vendors they partner with.

Preoperative PET/CT imaging linked with better survival in advanced lung cancer

PET/CT imaging in these patients increases overall survival depending on the cancer’s stage, with those diagnosed with stage 3A and 3B NSCLC appearing to benefit the most from the exam. 

Around the web

GE HealthCare designed the new-look Revolution Vibe CT scanner to help hospitals and health systems embrace CCTA and improve overall efficiency.

Clinicians have been using HeartSee to diagnose and treat coronary artery disease since the technology first debuted back in 2018. These latest updates, set to roll out to existing users, are designed to improve diagnostic performance and user access.

The cardiac technologies clinicians use for CVD evaluations have changed significantly in recent years, according to a new analysis of CMS data. While some modalities are on the rise, others are being utilized much less than ever before.
