Only one-third of patients received osteoporosis medication after vertebral augmentation. The incidence of new vertebral fractures fell from 0.519 to 0.076 per person-year after starting medical management (incidence rate ratio 6.79, 95% CI 3.37-15.51), a 6-fold decreased risk.
Percutaneous MWA of T1 RCC showed 76% 10-year overall survival, 85% cancer-specific survival, and 83% local progression-free survival, with stable renal function and low complications.
Integrated model combining emphysema, Pi10, airway branch count, and clinical data detected undiagnosed COPD with AUC 0.83 (95% CI 0.80-0.86) in 5,014 lung screening participants, up from 0.69 for emphysema alone, reducing confirmatory spirometry referrals from 41% to 34%.
FAPI PET/CT showed 93.0% sensitivity vs 76.5% for FDG (p=0.002) in 176 patients with suspected HPB cancers. Nodal accuracy was 86.8% vs 71.1%. Dual-tracer approach did not improve accuracy. Prospective validation needed.
Background Cardiac gallium 68-labeled fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI)-4 (68Ga-FAPI-4) PET/MRI allows simultaneous assessment of cardiac tissue characteristics, function, and molecular remodeling in myocardial diseases. An integrated workflow for nonischemic dila...

The Radiology Reimagined demonstration, formerly known as Imaging AI in Practice, is presented at the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) Annual Meeting. It highlights how interoperability and semantic standards can facilitate the integration of artificial intelligenc...
Background Genicular artery embolization (GAE) is an emerging minimally invasive therapy for osteoarthritis (OA)-related knee pain. Traditional embolic agents such as imipenem-cilastatin and permanent microspheres have distinct limitations. Rapidly resorbable gelatin-based mic...
Background Ischemic lesion net water uptake (NWU), a CT biomarker of cerebral edema, has been linked to poor outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) due to large vessel occlusion (LVO). Whether NWU outperforms other imaging markers in predicting futile recanaliza...
Background Deep learning (DL) models have shown promise in diagnosing pancreatic cancer (PC); however, models that simultaneously detect both direct and indirect imaging findings associated with PC are lacking. Purpose To develop and evaluate DL models that detect direct and i...

Background Artificial intelligence (AI)-based computer-aided detection (CAD) systems have demonstrated clinically significant performance in mammographic screening in both retrospective and prospective studies. However, the role of AI in early cancer detection requires further...
Craniopagus twins are conjoined twins fused at the cranium. Separating these twins is a challenging undertaking, often associated with high levels of morbidity and mortality. Inadequate preoperative planning can lead to suboptimal outcomes, with survival rates reported at appr...
Background Whether the diagnostic accuracy of the Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System (LI-RADS) Treatment Response Algorithm (TRA) differs according to the type of MRI contrast agent has been unclear. Purpose To compare the diagnostic accuracy of LI-RADS Nonradiation TRA v...
Background Despite their widespread use and clinical importance, musculoskeletal (MSK) US examinations remain highly subjective and heavily reliant on the sonologist's expertise. Purpose To develop deep learning models for standard plane recognition and anatomic segmentation i...
Background While randomized trials have demonstrated that middle meningeal artery embolization (MMAE) reduces subdural hematoma recurrence over several months, its effect on immediate hospitalization outcomes remains unclear. Purpose To evaluate the impact of first-line stand-...
Background Air pollution is the leading environmental risk factor for cardiovascular disease. However, data regarding its association with coronary artery disease (CAD) beyond coronary artery calcium score (CACS) remain limited. Purpose To evaluate the relationship between lon...
Background Microvascular obstruction (MVO) is strongly associated with adverse outcomes after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). However, manual quantification of MVO is time-consuming and fails to capture the heterogeneity of microvascular injury. Purpose To...

Recent advances in immunologic and molecular research on rheumatic diseases have significantly improved understanding of the diverse group of immune-mediated disorders. Rheumatic diseases were traditionally considered autoimmune diseases, caused by impaired adaptive immunity a...
Cigarette smoking is a major cause of parenchymal lung disease, with a wide range of imaging findings that radiologists must be able to recognize. These include chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and a group of diffuse interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) collectively r...
