On 76 test cases, the AI framework achieved Cobb angle MAE 2.4°, Lenke curve type accuracy 0.895, and reduced review time from 8.2 to 1.5 min/case.
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…
Osteoporosis screening with DXA declined 35.4% among Medicare beneficiaries from 2005 (7,255 per 100,000) to 2023 (4,690 per 100,000), with steeper drops in minority and deprived groups. Use rose 58% in those with highest comorbidities.

Medicine is better viewed as avoiding unforced errors than chasing rare diagnoses, especially in radiology where images are permanent. Search patterns build consistency and reduce mistakes.
A multisociety coalition released a radiation safety toolkit for interventional fluoroscopy, aiming to curb occupational health crisis. Survey found nearly 60% of clinicians reported orthopedic injuries from lead aprons, and 1 in 5 reduced caseload or took leave.
OhioHealth is investing $10.2 million to double CT scanner capacity at its Bradley Cancer Center in Circleville, Ohio, adding a second scanner to the only facility offering CT in Pickaway County. The two-year project also adds five infusion spaces and expands pharmacy services.

Bibliometric analysis of CT use in human identification shows growing scientific output since 2015, with most studies assessing age and sex; Japan leads in citation impact. No significant link found between journal impact factor and citations.
A deep learning model detected simulated external root resorption with 100% accuracy on periapical radiographs and up to 97.92% on CBCT. Performance dropped to 73.96% with three-dimensional reconstruction, especially in treated teeth.
Optical tissue sensing during vacuum-assisted breast biopsy distinguished malignant from healthy tissue with 86% accuracy, 91% sensitivity, 82% specificity in ex vivo study of 40 mastectomy specimens.
In 183 patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia, a Small Artery Disease (SAD) score ≥1 on lateral foot DSA increased risk of major adverse limb events (HR 2.22, p=0.011) and death (HR 2.06, p=0.025), but not wound healing or amputation.
