Researchers have developed a new “glowing” imaging technique that can diagnose tuberculosis (TB) within an hour, according to research published in Science Translational Medicine.

A report evaluating five years of radiology-related medical professional liability claims found 80 percent of all diagnosis-related claims stem from the misinterpretation of clinical tests. Additionally, 80 percent of missed diagnosis claims in radiology result in either permanent injury or death.

Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) powered by artificial intelligence can accurately assess diminutive colorectal polyps, according to a new study published in Annals of Internal Medicine. But is the CAD’s performance level high enough that specialists can follow the recommended “diagnose-and leave” strategy for diminutive polyps?

When it comes to major career decisions, radiologists whose choices are driven by intuition and self-care might be less prone to stress and burnout than those who base decisions on external influences and pressures, one physician wrote in a Journal of the American College of Radiology editorial this week.

Computer-aided detection (CAD) software can improve radiologist efficiency when interpreting chest CTs, reducing reading times by as much as 44 percent, University of California, Los Angeles, researchers wrote in Academic Radiology this summer.

The American College of Radiology’s Harvey L. Neiman Health Policy Institute and Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta have announced a new partnership focused on applying analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) to large medical claims databases.

Researchers have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) platform that can detect acute neurologic events in CT images in just 1.2 seconds, according to a new study published in Nature Medicine.

The American College of Radiology (ACR) Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System (LI-RADS) Steering Committee has developed a new version of CT/MRI LI-RADS that is now in line with similar guidelines published by the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD).
