AI is most beneficial as a prescreening tool, new research suggests

1 week ago | healthimaging.com | Hannah Murphy

Artificial intelligence-enabled applications have been tested in multiple radiology settings, but a new analysis suggests they may be most useful as prescreening tools. CT lung cancer screenings have been identified as one of numerous areas where AI assistance could enhance radiologists’ accuracy and efficiency. While it has proven itself to be useful as an assistive tool, experts recently sought to determine how it could be most beneficial to readers.
AI bests radiologists at computed tomography angiography reads

Artificial intelligence-enabled tools have proven to be more accurate than radiologists when it comes to detecting certain signs of coronary artery disease (CAD). Computed tomography angiography (CTA) is becoming the modality of choice for many providers tasked with assessing coronary plaques and stenosis—two telltale signs of CAD. Although CTA offers enhanced visualization for radiologists to assess patients’ risk of CAD, the manual process can be time-consuming and cumbersome.

A new artificial intelligence tool could have “untapped potential” for gauging treatment effectiveness in patients with multiple sclerosis. New research published in Nature Communications details the use of a tool developed by experts at University College London. MindGlide is a deep learning model that quickly analyzes brain MRIs to assess for longitudinal changes that can give providers insight into whether a patient’s MS is responding to treatment.
First X-rays taken in space mimic historic first radiograph captured on earth

2 weeks ago | healthimaging.com | Hannah Murphy

The first medical X-ray image to have ever been taken in space has officially been released. The image was taken during SpaceX’s recent Fram2 mission aboard the Crew Dragon Resilience spacecraft. The radiograph is of a hand with a ring on it, which is likely a tribute to the first X-ray ever taken in 1895—an image Wilhelm Roentgen took of his wife’s hand while experimenting with cathode rays in a vacuum tube.

Referrers want more structured radiology reports

2 weeks ago | healthimaging.com | Hannah Murphy

New survey data suggest most providers—whether radiologists or otherwise—prefer their patients’ neuroradiological reports to be structured. Responses to the survey indicate that structured reporting of such studies more clearly communicates impressions regarding neurology patients, which often require more complex workups and management. Experts involved in the survey suggest that their findings highlight a need for better standardization.
Case of cardiac arrest during MRI highlights importance of patient monitoring
