PSAD remained below 0.11 ng/mL² across all ages in 1037 healthy German men, contrasting with continuously rising PSA. 95th percentile reference: PV 51.39 mL, PSA 2.79 ng/mL, PSAD 0.071 ng/mL².
Noncontrast CT-based unimodal imaging AI detected anterior circulation large vessel occlusion with sensitivity 0.78 (95% credible interval 0.68-0.86) and specificity 0.88, versus expert readers' sensitivity 0.62 and similar specificity; low-certainty retrospective evidence.
SIR Foundation research consensus panel calls for standardized acute DVT intervention endpoints: biologically informed patient selection, anatomic/physiologic metrics, validated severity tools, longitudinal biomarkers, and economic/QoL measures to advance precision and reduce po…
In 266 dental students using an artificial intelligence-supported panoramic radiograph platform, marking >8.5 regions was tied to lower diagnostic performance scores (p<0.001); region frequency versus AI-supported diagnosis had AUC 0.414 (95% CI 0.342-0.486, p=0.018).
A CTPA-pretrained YOLO11-nano model detected lower-limb DVT on CT venography with 92.1% accuracy and 93.9% sensitivity, exceeding a Faster R-CNN model (66% accuracy); both models surpassed 97% accuracy for pulmonary embolism.
Next-generation transarterial radioembolization (TARE) surrogates—biodegradable, PET/CT/MRI-visible microspheres plus AI/deep learning and Monte Carlo dosimetry—may improve pre-treatment liver dose prediction beyond standard 99mTc-MAA SPECT.

In a single-center survey of 10 IR attendings, a night-float call system increased sleep (6 vs 5.5 hrs), was preferred by 60%, and reduced wRVUs per FTE by 6% compared to traditional 24-hour call.
Solis Mammography opened 4 new centers in Colorado, North Carolina, and Florida, offering 3D mammography and AI services including Mammo+Heart for breast arterial calcification. The company now operates over 170 locations.
The best diagnosis is in this patient with cough and fever.
A narrative review finds that global radiology remains dominated by short-term outreach models, neglecting the systems issues—workforce, equipment maintenance, financing, and governance—required for sustainable, equitable imaging services.

Women with preeclampsia had significantly higher susceptibility in temporal cingulum (left: 15.75 vs 9.95 ppb; right: 14.86 vs 8.48 ppb) and left fornix (5.07 vs 1.14 ppb) on quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) MRI compared with pregnant controls in a cohort of 350 women.
Brain age gap was 3.5 years in type 1 diabetes, rising to 6-7 years with peripheral neuropathy, per MRI-based deep learning. Diabetes duration drove brain aging, while neuropathic pain had no clear contribution.
ASTRO guideline for pancreatic cancer: RT recommended preop for borderline resectable, definitive for locally advanced; conditionally for resectable. Preop: conventional/moderate hypofractionation; postop: conventional; definitive: dose-escalated SBRT. Palliative RT for symptoms.
In a meta-analysis of 6 studies, robot-assisted neuroendovascular procedures had longer operating room time (mean difference 12.42 min, 95% CI 6.31–18.53) but lower contrast volume (MD –6.20 ml, 95% CI –11.91 to –0.50). Procedure and fluoroscopy times, diagnostic success, and co…
Neuroradiologists showed only fair interrater agreement (mean κ=0.22) when interpreting MRIs from 14 operatively confirmed Cushing disease patients with indeterminate findings. All agreed that a system to convey imaging certainty in reports would be helpful.
Combining abnormal craniocervical junction (CCJ) CT measurements, fracture, and hemorrhage yields high diagnostic accuracy (AUC 0.86-0.91) for pediatric CCJ ligamentous injury, with sensitivity up to 96% and specificity 95%.
Primitive basal vein of Rosenthal (BVR) drainage (type 3) was more frequent in PMNSAH than controls (47.4% vs 24.4%), but BVR variants did not predict hemorrhage severity or neurological outcome. Age was independently associated with worse outcomes.
ASFNR clinical state-of-practice: For posterior circulation large vessel occlusion stroke, use noncontrast CT to exclude hemorrhage, CT angiography to identify occlusion, and MRI with DWI as reference standard. Imaging scores like PC-ASPECTS help select patients for thrombectomy.
An AI algorithm for CTA detected anterior circulation large vessel occlusions with 95.8% sensitivity and 88.6% specificity. In a multicenter study of 379 patients, mean time-to-notification was just 3.30 minutes, supporting its use as a rapid triage tool.
