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…
A curriculum-guided unsupervised domain adaptation framework improved MRI-based Parkinson’s diagnosis across centers, boosting accuracy from 65.81% to 67.95% and AUC from 0.6474 to 0.7148 on a cross-domain task. It mitigates pseudo-label noise.
For ultrasound-based ovarian mass risk stratification, a vision transformer (ViT16-384) achieved AUC 0.941 and accuracy 87.4%, significantly outperforming radiologists using O-RADS v2022 (AUC 0.683, accuracy 68.0%). Hybrid human-AI models further boosted performance.

Beyond nnU-Net: emerging artificial intelligence directions for automated perivascular space segmentation.
Deep learning model estimated bone age from pediatric chest radiographs with intraclass correlation coefficient of 0.87 (95% CI 0.63-0.99) and root mean squared error of 1.30 years (95% CI 0.56-1.95) compared to hand radiograph reference.
A MRI-based sub-regional radiomics model of gluteus maximus muscle/fat sub-regions predicted recurrence in high-grade serous ovarian cancer, achieving AUC 0.774 in validation; adding neoadjuvant chemo and PARP inhibitor status raised AUC to 0.817.
An externally validated deep learning model for pulmonary embolism on CTPA achieved sensitivity 0.80, specificity 0.97, and AUROC 0.94 for any PE. No central PE was missed, but 100/375 peripheral PEs (26.7%) went undetected. Subsegmental-only PE detection was near chance (AUROC…
Deep learning models nnU-Net and MedSAM directly segmented the left ventricular myocardium on native cardiac MRE data, achieving Dice scores of 0.82—matching or exceeding the inter-reader agreement of 0.79—paving the way for a self-contained MRE workflow.
Adding expiratory CT and lobar analysis improved AUC for chronic airflow limitation detection from 0.66 (inspiratory alone) to 0.81, with 79% sensitivity and 94% NPV.
A bibliometric analysis of 1511 whole-body MRI publications found annual output rose from 124 in 2015 to 180 in 2025. Cancer (myeloma, prostate), musculoskeletal disease, diffusion-weighted imaging, and AI segmentation led themes; AI papers grew from 5 to 20.
Synthetic multiphase CT from noncontrast CT, generated by a large language model–guided dual-decoder framework, improved focal liver lesion classification accuracy from 71.65% to 85.04% (acquired CT 91.34%) in 86 patients.
In 159 early rheumatoid arthritis patients, baseline wrist ultrasound inflammation correlated with later AI-derived carpal compactness changes on radiographs (r 0.18–0.25), but compactness did not track Sharp/van der Heijde scores.

What Radiology Can Learn from Other Fields Using AI
Pre-biopsy MRI is 93% sensitive for prostate cancer vs 50% for systematic biopsy, yet only about one-third of U.S. workups use it. Barriers include urologist training, MRI access, and financial incentives favoring in-office biopsy.
