🩷 Grating-interferometry breast CT (GI-BCT) is an experimental imaging technique that has been shown to outperform state-of-the-art imaging techniques in terms of contrast-to-noise ratio by providing additional phase-contrast information (fused images) alongside conventional attenuation-only images.

Iron-based contrast agents (IBCAs) have potential as alternatives to Gd-based contrast agents, intending to address the long-term safety concerns associated with gadolinium. The authors investigated [Fe-EOB-tCDTA] as a potential alternative to [Gd-EOB-DTPA]2- for liver MRI

Could AI analyse fetal MRI brain and provide an additional clue to gestational age? 👶🧠 When pregnancy dating is uncertain, inconsistent or unavailable, interpreting fetal development becomes more challenging.

A chest CT may reveal the source of sepsis, but could it also reveal who is at greater risk? 🔍 Fu et al. studied 1,716 patients across three hospitals, using automated segmentation to measure the visceral-to-subcutaneous fat ratio at L1, a level often included on routine chest CT.

Spectral CT enables material decomposition and monoenergetic imaging, improving infarct-estimation on non-contrast cerebral CT (NCCT). However, beyond NCCT, infarct estimation is also accessible from CT angiography.

Can bone tumour reporting systems help us assess solitary bone lesions in children? 🦴 🧒🏻 In this recent study, the performance of Bone-RADS and OT-RADS on paediatric MRI was put to the test.

The unique capability of deuterium metabolic imaging (DMI) to detect downstream metabolic products and trace substrates’ transport within tissues using conventional MR scanners can, in theory, be employed with routine PET/MR equipment.

Can AI help inexperienced clinicians achieve rapid femoral vascular access? 🎯 In a prospective study Prakash et al evaluated AI-GUIDE-LL, a handheld system combining ultrasound, artificial intelligence and robotic needle guidance.

Prostate MRI AI can already rival expert readers, but is it truly ready for everyday clinical practice? 🤖🧲🎯 In this special report, the ESUR Prostate MRI Working Group evaluates the state of deep learning for prostate cancer evaluation and outlines critical priorities for clinical translation.

Current status and future directions of AI in prostate cancer detection on MRI: a special report from the ESUR prostate MRI working group authors - European Radiology

Abstract This report from the ESUR Prostate MRI Working Group assesses the current role of artificial intelligence (AI) in MRI-based detection of prostate cancer. While deep learning tools…
