In a retrospective analysis of 202 dermatologic US images, adding a radiologist's report to ChatGPT boosted diagnostic accuracy to 83.2%, vs 55.4% (radiologist-only) and 26.2% (ChatGPT-only) (p<0.001).
Survey of 133 Israeli radiology professionals found AI adoption is heterogeneous, with higher use among specialists and hospital-based staff. Leading barriers: limited budget, doubts in AI outputs, and absent medico-legal protocols. Trust and institutional support are central, w…
Review highlights progress in MRI-guided magnetic micro/nanorobots (MNRs) for neurological diseases—integrating AI navigation, BBB penetration, and imaging feedback; still faces translational challenges.

Quantitative pancreatic MRI shows promise as a non-invasive biomarker for evaluating diabetic pathophysiology, early diagnosis, and monitoring therapy. Integration of AI and radiomics is preliminary, requiring multi-center validation before clinical use.
A radiomics model on multiparametric MRI achieves an AUC of 0.75 for distinguishing melanoma from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) brain metastases, with FLAIR and T2 sequences contributing most to classification, according to a new study.
A narrative review of 27 systematic reviews/meta-analyses finds radiomics consistently aids lung cancer diagnosis, prognostication, and treatment response assessment, but clinical translation is hampered by lack of standardization, limited external validation, and reproducibilit…
Diagnostic Imaging's weekly roundup of FDA 510(k) clearances and PMA approvals in radiology, covering imaging devices, AI software, and accessories for the week of June 21-27.
A pediatric diagnostic radiology position in Oklahoma City advertises a proven income exceeding $700,000, posted on the ACR Career Center. No further details in the snippet.
A deep learning model analyzing pretreatment ascites cytology predicted platinum resistance risk with AUCs of 0.894 (internal), 0.863, and 0.828 (two external validation cohorts), outperforming KELIM score (AUC 0.619). External validation supports potential clinical accessibilit…
In a retrospective study of 95 children, deep learning created high-b-value diffusion data from b=750, matching acquired HARDI patterns and showing consistent sex differences across tracts, potentially halving pediatric scan time.
A narrative review finds AI models in veterinary imaging are most extensively applied in dogs and mice, proving effective for auto-segmentation of MRI and classification of thoracic/cardiac pathology on radiographs. (exact figures not reported in source).
Targeted plus ipsilateral systematic biopsy detected 97.3% of clinically significant prostate cancers in men with PI-RADS 4-5 lesions, matching full systematic biopsy but with less overdiagnosis (retrospective).
Osteoporotic vertebral fractures are common, often silent, and independently predict future fractures. Opportunistic CT, DXA vertebral fracture assessment, and AI-assisted detection can improve case finding. Integrated management including anabolic-first therapy for high-risk pa…
At ESSR, radiologists competed on MSK Hero, a pattern-recognition game. True speed came from instant recognition, not overthinking—a reminder that visual calibration can be tested and trained. (No formal study; anecdotal challenge.)
Men with larger prostates had significantly lower cancer detection rates on MRI-targeted fusion biopsy, according to a new study. (exact figures not reported in source)
