The ACR has issued its 2026 update to Appropriateness Criteria for myelopathy, providing evidence-based imaging guidance for acute, chronic, and vascular causes of spinal cord dysfunction to help differentiate extrinsic from intrinsic pathology.
In 82,957 women with negative screening mammograms (Kaiser Permanente cohort), combining Mirai AI, a 313-SNP polygenic score, and BCSCv3 clinical risk reached C-index 0.70 (95% CI 0.69–0.71) vs 0.66, 0.62, and 0.61 for each alone — supporting integrated risk-stratified screening.
After venous sinus stenting for pulsatile tinnitus, temporal bone remodeling occurred in 73.1% of patients with follow-up CT (38/52). Remodeling was significantly more likely with a diverticulum vs isolated wall dehiscence (85.7% vs 47.1%; adjusted OR 8.08, 95% CI 1.31-49.73), a…
Across >3 million multicenter emergency department encounters, overall ED neuroimaging utilization doubled from 2016 to 2025. Head CT without contrast remained dominant, but CT perfusion use rose >5-fold over the same period, signaling a marked shift in acute stroke workup inten…
In 220 spontaneous intracranial hypotension patients, Bern SIH score peaked at ~4–9 weeks of symptoms (median score 8–7) then fell by >1 year (median score 4). A low score in long-standing disease should not rule out SIH — imaging findings are time-dependent.
AJNR published an erratum correcting a previously published article. No specific details about the nature or extent of the correction are reported in the source snippet.
After propensity matching, M2 occlusion thrombectomy yielded good functional outcome (90-day mRS ≤2) in 51.9% vs 30.8% for M1 (OR 2.32, 95% CI 1.01–5.3; p=0.04), with lower mortality. Benefit concentrated in NIHSS ≥6 — possibly explaining neutral medium-vessel RCT results.
In 50 β-thalassemia major patients vs 50 matched controls, sub-voxel chi-separation MRI revealed excess iron in hippocampus, insula & anterior cingulate (FDR q<0.05); an SVM classifier achieved mean AUC 0.919±0.054. Higher iron correlated with lower MoCA scores — retrospective,…
Applying 3 pre-procedural criteria—identifiable antecedent event, unilateral pudendal-distribution pain, positive diagnostic nerve block—nearly doubled ≥50% pain relief rates in CT-guided pudendal cryoablation (77.4% vs. 36.4%, p=0.002). Retrospective; only 37% of cases had adeq…
Case report: an occult anatomical snuffbox arteriovenous fistula drove refractory upper extremity venous hypertension in an end-stage renal disease patient with co-existing thoracic outlet syndrome. Highlights the diagnostic challenge when multiple venous outflow obstacles coexi…
Commentary on private equity radiology buyouts: the large upfront payment isn't a bonus — it's the radiologist's own future income, pulled forward and discounted, in exchange for accepting lower compensation long-term. Financial literacy matters at the negotiating table.
A new educational lecture breaks down the complex anatomy of the deep neck spaces into suprahyoid and infrahyoid compartments, providing a clear radiological classification to help localize disease on head and neck imaging.
Senior radiologists and industry leaders clashed at the UK Imaging & Oncology Congress 2026 over whether AI in radiology represents an expensive failure or a vital prerequisite — no consensus reported, reflecting genuine field-wide uncertainty.
DeepHealth has launched Reporting Pro, a new radiology software that uses generative AI to create structured report drafts. The tool integrates with existing EHR and PACS to auto-populate findings and impressions, aiming to cut dictation time. Specific performance metrics for th…
A multi-country Philips survey found the biggest reported AI benefit was reduced diagnostic wait times, yet workflow integration remains a top barrier. Most radiology leaders saw measurable efficiency gains, but a sizeable minority reported no time savings (exact figures not rep…
The American College of Radiology updated its Nuclear Cardiology Module (NM) for continuing education, covering nuclear cardiology imaging techniques and interpretation. The module is available for CME. Updated June 10, 2026.
Radiologists have a long history of embracing new technology, and the American College of Radiology says the field will adapt again, urging radiologists to view innovation as an opportunity, not a threat.
The American College of Radiology has released a revised practice parameter for breast ultrasound performed by sonographers/technologists, with an effective date of June 10, 2026. No specific changes are detailed in the source.
The American College of Radiology released revised clinical image testing guidelines for positron emission tomography (PET), effective June 10, 2026. The document updates image quality standards for PET accreditation, including phantom testing requirements.
The American College of Radiology has released a revised standard for interpreting physicians performing breast ultrasound and ultrasound-guided breast biopsy, effective June 2026. The update addresses training and ongoing competence requirements for accredited facilities.
The ACR has revised its educational module on single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) in nuclear medicine. The update, dated June 10, 2026, targets radiology residents and nuclear medicine trainees. No specifics on content changes were provided.

Mesenteric ischemia (MI) represents a spectrum of vascular intestinal injuries for which delayed diagnosis remains the leading determinant of outcomes. Despite advances in multidetector CTA technology and endovascular therapy, substantial variation persists in how mesenteric i...
FDA 510(k) clearance granted to Alpha Intelligence Manifolds for DeepXray Spina, an AI-based software for spinal radiograph interpretation (product code SAO). Clinical performance data not reported in clearance notice.
PI-RADS v2.1 subcategorization of category-4 peripheral zone lesions (upgraded vs. non-upgraded) had only fair-to-moderate inter-reader agreement (Gwet's AC1 0.29–0.57) across 3 radiologists scoring 375 lesions; csPCa yield for upgraded lesions ranged 39–68% vs. 63–81% for non-u…
In 216 BI-RADS 4 breast lesions, a logistic regression model with 6 imaging/elastography features best predicted malignancy — random forest appeared superior (AUC 1.00) but showed clear overfitting. LR model AUC in validation not reported in source. Single-center, n=212.
For PI-RADS 3 lesions, MRI-derived real PSA density (rPSAD) achieved AUC 0.846 (95% CI 0.767–0.924) for clinically significant prostate cancer — outperforming conventional PSAD. A sequential strategy flagged 53% cancer prevalence in the high-risk tier. Retrospective; n=116.
Comprehensive review contrasts radiofrequency ablation outcomes for aldosterone-producing vs cortisol-producing adrenal adenomas. RFA is better characterized for APA; CPA data remain sparse. Key clinical, imaging, and procedural differences are detailed for interventional radiol…
In 509 pediatric patients from a 10-yr national registry, transcatheter arterial embolization achieved 97.1% hemorrhage control with mortality similar to surgery (22.3% vs 22.6%; OR 0.98, 95% CI 0.66–1.45). TAE use rose 256% 2013–2023. Conservative-managed patients had lower mor…
