HCC has an uneven global distribution and a higher incidence in males. The LI-RADS is a standardized imaging framework for HCC diagnosis. It is unclear whether the evidence used to inform LI-RADS reflects the global burden of HCC. https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/08465371261429344
Given the overlap in populations of perimenopausal and postmenopausal women at risk for cardiovascular disease, there is an opportunity to use BAC to identify women at increased cardiovascular risk. https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/08465371261435478
How do radiology departments stay high-performing without burning out their people? In this paper, we propose distributed servant leadership as a practical model for building adaptable, inclusive, and purpose-driven radiology teams. https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/08465371261437071
In a review of after-hours pediatric head trauma CT, most scans were normal. Findings support improved adherence to PECARN Pediatric Head Injury Prediction Rule while highlighting higher diagnostic yield in children <2. https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/08465371261435381
