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.

DLIR with high-frequency kernels improves small-lesion detectability on CT, except for 3-mm low-contrast lesions at low dose

DLIR with high-frequency kernels reduced noise and improved detectability of small lesions vs iterative reconstruction in CT phantoms, best with DLIR-High. However, for 3mm 200mg/cc lesions, contrast decreased and advantage was lost below 3mGy (chest) & 7mGy (spine).

AI-derived liver and adrenal volumes linked to survival in kidney cancer

Higher CT-derived liver volume (HR 1.42) and right adrenal gland volume (HR 1.34) were independently associated with worse overall survival in clear cell renal cell carcinoma patients; no association with recurrence-free survival after adjustment.

Increasing kVp With Constant Detector Exposure Lowers Patient Dose

Increasing tube voltage (kVp) reduces patient dose when detector exposure is held constant. Higher energy photons penetrate better, so mAs can be lowered, reducing total photon output despite each photon carrying more energy.
