Knowing a patient's symptoms helps radiologists in lumbar spine MRI interpretation and diagnosis, according to a study published today in Radiology, a journal of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA).
Researchers have shown for the first time that it is possible for a specially-designed 'mini-protein' to deliver a radiation dose directly to tumour cells expressing a protein on their cell surfaces called Nectin-4, which is often found...
When people check in for their annual mammogram these days, some may face a surprising question: In addition to reviewing the mammogram for breast cancer, would the patient like the radiologist to examine the images for heart disease risk?

In one of the largest-ever studies of DNA and brain volume, researchers have identified 254 genetic variants that shape key structures in the "deep brain," including those that control memory, motor skills, addictive behaviors and more.
The American College of Chest Physicians has published a new clinical guideline on endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration that aims...
A systematic review reveals only 5% of healthcare evaluations for large language models use real patient data, highlighting gaps in bias and task assessment.
A proposed multiscale transformer-based model for end-to-end segmentation of focal cortical dysplasia lesions from multi-channel MR images improves the feature...
The FDA is adapting regulations to manage AI’s rapid development in healthcare, focusing on patient safety and the life cycle of AI tools. This review emphasizes the need for continuous monitoring to ensure AI performs effectively in...
When human radiologists examine scans, they peer through the lens of decades of training. Extending from college to medical school to residency, the road that concludes in a physician interpreting, say, an X-ray, includes thousands upon...
In a new study led by Johns Hopkins Medicine, the drug RK-33 has demonstrated promise in treating breast cancer that has spread to the bone (breast cancer bone metastasis). RK-33 was previously shown to help treat other types of cancer...
The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in hospitals and patient care is steadily increasing. Especially in specialist areas with a high proportion of imaging, such as radiology, AI has long been part of everyday clinical practice.
