While traditional non-adaptive radiotherapy for glioblastomas has reportedly yielded an approximate 11 percent rate of marginal failure, recently presented findings from the UNITED trial revealed that magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided radiation reduced the marginal failure rate to 4.1 percent.

Multivariable analysis from a new study demonstrates that the computed tomography (CT)-based coronary artery calcium (CAC) score offers better preoperative prognostic capability than coronary artery stenosis severity or the CT-based fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) for predicting long-term survival in elderly patients with lung cancer who undergo surgery.

The statistics on colon cancer continue to be troubling. Colorectal cancer (CTC) is reportedly the third leading cause of death among African Americans, and there has been an increasing incidence of CTC among people under the age of 50.1,2 In a recently published study in JAMA Network Open, researchers noted increasing annual incidence rates of colorectal adenocarcinoma among people 15 to 50 years of age.2In a recent interview.

Emerging research suggests the most optimal use of artificial intelligence (AI) in low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) lung cancer screening is in pre-screening patients with radiologists only interpreting exams with positive AI findings. For the retrospective study, recently published in the American Journal of Roentgenology, researchers reviewed data for 366 people (mean age of 64) who had LDCT as part of a prior prospective lung cancer screening trial from 2017.

Nanox.ARC X, a multi-source digital tomosynthesis system, has garnered 510(k) clearance from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Adjunctive to conventional radiography, the Nanox.ARC X provides three-dimensional (3D) views for musculoskeletal and pulmonary imaging as well as intra-abdominal and paranasal sinus indications, according to Nanox, the developer of Nanox.ARC X.

Emerging research suggests that prior mammography screening within five years of breast cancer diagnosis for seniors significantly reduces the risks of later-stage diagnosis and breast cancer-specific mortality. For the study, recently published in JAMA Network Open, researchers reviewed data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER)-Medicare database for 13,028 women who had screening mammography-detected breast cancer.

Findings from a new meta-analysis demonstrate that artificial intelligence (AI) can enhance computed tomography angiography (CTA) detection of coronary artery stenosis and calcified plaque in comparison to radiologist assessment. For the meta-analysis, recently published in Academic Radiology, researchers reviewed data from 17 studies (5,560 total patients) to compare the use of AI and radiologist interpretation of CTA for detecting calcified plaque and coronary artery stenosis > 50 percent.
