Lesion-aware hybrid CNN-transformer improves mammography classification on VinDrMammo
A hybrid convolutional neural network (CNN)-transformer mammography model reached 85.5% accuracy and 79.6% macro F1 on VinDrMammo three-class classification, with lesion-focused evidence matching annotated abnormalities and fewer parameters than comparators.

Multi-reader study benchmarks AI bone age against quantified radiologist variability
Automated BoneXpert bone age was more accurate than single human readers (mean absolute error 4.8 vs 6.5 months) and had fewer >1.8-year errors (0.7% vs 3.4%) in 1,285 pediatric hand radiographs. Reader variability was higher under age 12 (standard deviation 8.7 vs 4.2 months).

Fully Automated AI CT Analysis for TAVI Planning Alters Prosthesis Size in 21% of Cases
Fully automated AI-based CT analysis for TAVI planning had excellent agreement with semi-automated measurements (ICC>0.95), but would have changed prosthesis size selection in 21% of patients versus 14% with standard software, underscoring the need for expert interpretation.

National Map of SPECT-CT Access Reveals Stark Geographic and Racial Disparities
A US geospatial analysis found highly unequal SPECT-CT access (Gini 0.327). Between-group inequality was significant by race and population (p≤0.004), not income or sex. Local racial impact varied widely: from -7.82 to +9.37 miles/% White, highlighting regional disparities.

Education Moderates Alzheimer's Biomarker-Cortical Thickness Relationship in Women with Cognitive Decline
In a study of 80 patients, women with cognitive decline and lower education showed preserved cortical thickness despite higher p-tau/Aβ42 ratio (p=0.026) and thicker frontal cortex (p=0.049). Education moderated the biomarker-thickness link (p<0.05 for all regions), suggesting M…
