ACR Appropriateness Criteria for indolent lung cancer: For patients with slow-growing subsolid nodules or atypical cysts where surveillance is chosen over intervention, imaging follow-up aims to detect changes that alter management, with modality selection guided by accuracy and…
In a proof-of-concept study of 34 osteosarcoma patients, radiomics-based causal ML for estimating neoadjuvant chemotherapy effects showed instability; CIs crossed zero for 2 of 3 learners, limiting clinical applicability. Findings are hypothesis-generating only.
Among 100 UAE radiologists surveyed, 67% used AI daily, 73% held favorable views; yet a 24% gap existed between desired and available AI tools for abdominal imaging (p=0.031).
A deep learning model (ConvNeXt+GRU) accurately identified dynamic phases and sequences in liver MRI across multiple centers, without relying on DICOM metadata. T2-weighted imaging showed greater variability in external testing.
A retrospective study (n=353 tumors) found that machine learning analysis of breast ultrasound images could predict estrogen receptor (ER) status with an AUC of 0.70 and accuracy up to 83%, suggesting a potential 'digital biopsy' approach, though external validation is needed.
Physics-informed AI model predicts patient-specific microwave ablation zones for liver tumors in ~20 ms from pre-ablation MRI, with retrospective validation against post-ablation MRI. May enable real-time intraprocedural guidance.
A review outlines how radiomics and deep learning extract quantitative imaging features to predict breast cancer's molecular subtypes and genomic heterogeneity, enabling noninvasive radiogenomic profiling for personalized diagnosis and treatment planning.
Among 38 substantive topics, 10 showed increasing relative shares ('hot'), including AI/ChatGPT, VR simulation, burnout/wellbeing, diversity/equity, empathy, and climate/health education. Twelve topics declined ('cold'), while 16 remained stable. Findings highlight a gradual shi…
A multi-omics study identified 43 genes linking 10 air pollutants with hepatocellular carcinoma. A 7-gene prognostic signature and two diagnostic markers were derived via 101 machine‑learning combinations; the hub gene PSMB5 was highly expressed in regulatory T cells and positiv…

Adolescents with bipolar disorder (BD) and major depressive disorder (MDD) show distinct DMN connectivity patterns. BD had reduced aMPFC-STG/TPOsup connectivity; MDD had stronger aMPFC-STG and pIPL-IFG connectivity vs BD. ML classifier had modest performance (AUC 0.609).
An MRI-based radiomics model combined with clinical factors (EGFR mutation, number of brain metastases, Lung-molGPA) achieved an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.874 in the test set for predicting survival in lung adenocarcinoma patients with brain metastasis, outperforming a rad…
AI applied to MRI, ultrasound, mammography, and multi-omics shows promise for TNBC tasks like response prediction and risk stratification, but most studies lack external validation and adequate cohort sizes.
Cinematic rendering of 3D early and late gadolinium enhancement cardiac MRI was feasible in a single adult patient at 1.5T, generating photorealistic four-chamber, two-chamber, and short-axis views using AI-denoised Monte Carlo path tracing. It is not a primary diagnostic tool;…
A Phase-Envelope-B-mode curriculum transfer learning approach using RF-derived representations improved breast ultrasound tumor detection by 2.08% relative mean average precision compared to B-mode training alone, while maintaining a single-model inference pathway in a controlle…
Diagnostic Imaging rounds up the five most popular video interviews from June 2026, highlighting key conversations in radiology.

Fujifilm and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) have signed an agreement to expand cancer imaging, aiming to improve diagnosis and treatment in underserved regions.
Hundreds of MRI exams were canceled across the U.K. as record heat caused scanners to overheat, compounding strain on an already burdened healthcare system.
A novel imaging technique for evaluating pulmonary regurgitation in patients with tetralogy of Fallot is described, potentially improving upon current methods (exact performance metrics not reported in source).
Persistent intercruciate septum is a benign embryological band between ACL and PCL, seen as a low-signal structure on MRI. Recognize it to avoid mistaking for a displaced meniscal fragment or anomalous vessel.
Nearly half of men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) receive no second-line treatment, according to new findings, highlighting a potential care gap. (Exact figure not reported in source)
Ben White quotes Isaac Asimov: 'It’s insulting to imply that only a system of rewards and punishments can keep you a decent human being.' The post argues that inherent satisfaction, not just external incentives, drives ethical conduct in medicine.
As imaging AI moves beyond initial adoption, radiology practices must now establish robust governance frameworks to manage algorithm performance monitoring, deployment, and integration across diverse clinical workflows.
Certain phrases in radiology reports may boost or undermine a radiologist's credibility, according to a new article. Vague language like 'cannot exclude' can erode trust, while precise, actionable wording strengthens it (exact data not reported).
