Generative AI use in radiology manuscript writing has more than doubled. A journal editor warns that disclosure alone is not enough to maintain manuscript integrity; further measures are required.
AI applied to contrast-enhanced carotid ultrasound may refine stroke risk assessment beyond stenosis, suggests a European Radiology study.
Fractal analysis quantifies complex brain geometry in psychiatric neuroimaging; this review examines methodology and potential clinical applications. (Abstract unavailable; specific findings not reported.)
SpineJack spondyloplasty in patients with thin pedicles (<5 mm) achieved 100% correct positioning and similar vertebral height restoration (81% vs 71%, p=0.058) to advised pedicle size, with no increase in cement leakage (20% vs 19%). Retrospective.
A meta-analysis of 14 studies (n=34,322) shows ML models predict extubation success with a pooled AUC of 0.90 (95% CI:0.82-0.95). Only 2 studies reported external validation, and high heterogeneity limits routine clinical use.
A correction has been published for the study 'Deep learning-based motion correction: cardiac motion artifact and image quality improvements on chest CT.' No new findings; the notice addresses errors in the original article.
A review outlines an AI framework spanning breast imaging, digital pathology, multi-omics, and treatment decisions, but cautions that bias, limited datasets, and poor interpretability impede clinical adoption.
A fine-tuned RadImageNet ResNet-50 classified adult scoliosis as none, mild, or severe on AP full-body X-rays with 76.2% accuracy (95% CI 69.2–82.1%) and AUROCs 0.77–0.85. Misclassification mainly occurred between adjacent severity levels; the model does not measure Cobb angle d…
