AI model detects esophageal cancer and precancerous lesions on noncontrast chest CT

An AI model (EAGLE) analyzing noncontrast chest CT achieved 90.0% sensitivity for esophageal cancer and 98.5% specificity in external multicenter testing (11,466 patients), and 99.94% specificity in low-dose screening. Could enable opportunistic esophageal cancer screening.

68Ga-DOTA-WL12 PET/CT Outperforms FDG for Predicting Chemo-Immunotherapy Response in HNSCC

Pre-treatment 68Ga-DOTA-WL12 PET outperformed 18F-FDG PET for predicting programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression (AUC 0.92 vs 0.69) and chemo-immunotherapy response (responder SUVmax 2.7 vs non-responder 1.3; independent predictor OR 12.42) in head and neck squamous cell ca…

Smaller CT pixels don’t always mean better spatial resolution

Reducing CT field of view while keeping matrix constant yields smaller pixels (e.g., 512 matrix, 200-mm FOV = 0.39 mm vs 400-mm FOV = 0.78 mm), but true spatial resolution may not improve. Finer spatial sampling does not guarantee more anatomical detail.

Proposed rubric flags unsafe AI-generated patient radiology reports

A rubric for evaluating AI-generated patient-friendly radiology reports was developed. When an AI model applied it to 480 reports, distribution decisions agreed with reference-standard decisions 88.1% of the time, suggesting a quality-assurance safeguard.

Coronary Artery Disease Assessment Moves Beyond Angiography Alone

Luminal stenosis is not the sole determinant of coronary risk. Integrating coronary CT angiography, plaque characterization, fractional flow reserve, and AI with angiography enables personalized risk stratification and treatment.

Large language models cannot reproduce radiology residency rank lists from applications alone but align well once interviews are added

LLMs (large language models) failed to reproduce a radiology residency rank list from applications alone (median τ 0.15–0.36), but adding human interview scores raised agreement to τ 0.84–0.93. Application-only LLM rankings placed female, international, and non-MD applicants low…
