Meta-analysis clarifies role of MRI, CT, and EUS in pancreatic cancer staging

For pancreatic cancer staging, CT outperforms MRI for vascular invasion (82% vs 70% sensitivity) and resectability (88% vs 63% specificity), while MRI excels for liver metastases (93% vs 73% sensitivity). EUS is best for lymph node assessment (87% sensitivity).

MRI reveals reduced cerebral blood flow in long COVID fatigue

In a small study, post-COVID patients had lower average cerebral blood flow on MRI (49.2 vs 51.7 mL/100g/min) and reported greater fatigue after a cognitive task, linking perfusion deficits to persistent symptoms.

Current Imaging for Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma Staging: Strengths and Limitations

No single imaging modality provides accurate clinical staging for upper tract urothelial carcinoma. CT urography detects tumors well but local staging is limited; MR urography may assess muscle invasion, and FDG-PET aids nodal/metastatic staging. A multimodal approach remains es…

Case-Based Neuroanatomy Course Boosts Dental Students' Anatomy Exam Scores, Radiology Integration Shows Trend

Neuroanatomy case-based learning significantly improved dental students' overall exam scores (effect size d=0.49, p=0.044) and spatial-anatomical scores (d=0.56, p=0.021). A radiology-integrated head and neck anatomy course showed a non-significant improvement (d=0.33, p=0.188).

Multivendor AI for automated liver MRI prescription achieves high accuracy across scanners

An AI model for automated liver MRI prescription achieved median axial IoU3D of 0.963 (IQR 0.946–0.976) in a multicenter multivendor test set, with margins <4 mm to match manual coverage in 90% of cases. Performance differences across vendors, field strengths, and patient factor…

Scoping review: AI and digital technology in neonatal respiratory assessment

AI-based predictive models and imaging (chest X-ray, lung ultrasound) show potential for early diagnosis and outcome prediction in neonatal respiratory care, but lack external validation, standardization, and multicenter evidence.
