CT Imaging-Based Assessment of Thoracic Aortic Diameter Useful for Predicting Heart Attacks

A new study has revealed that the diameter of the thoracic aorta is a biomarker for heart attacks and other adverse cardiovascular events in women and men. The study suggests that cardiovascular risk assessment associated with thoracic aortic size among asymptomatic women and men could lead to effective, sex-specific prevention strategies. More...

AI Algorithms Enable Highly Accurate and Cost Effective Medical Image Diagnosis

An engineering team at the University of Hong Kong (HKU, Hong Kong) has developed a new approach “REFERS” (Reviewing Free-text Reports for Supervision), which can cut human cost down by 90%, by enabling the automatic acquisition of supervision signals from hundreds of thousands of radiology reports at the same time.

AI System Quantifies Lung Lesions and Airway Volumes on CT Imaging in IPF Patients

Scientists have developed an artificial intelligence (AI)-based image analysis software to detect parenchymal and airway abnormalities on computed tomography (CT) imaging of the chest and to explore their prognostic importance in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). More...

MRI/PET Scans Link Brainstem Atrophy to Dementia Symptoms

Frontotemporal dementia, FTD, comes with extrapyramidal symptoms, such as those in Parkinson’s disease, and this makes the diagnosis of FTD challenging. However, a new study now shows that accurate imaging and analysis of the brain may make it possible to distinguish between FTD and other diseases that cause extrapyramidal symptoms. More...

Computed Tomography (CT) Dose Can Be Decided by Size of Patient’s T-Shirt

A study examining size-based reference doses for different types of CT examination has found that T-shirt size could provide a perception of dose differences in patients of different body-build. More...

AI Can Predict Need for CT in Pediatric Patients After Mild Traumatic Brain Injury

Only 10% of CT scans unveil positive findings in mild traumatic brain injury, raising concerns of its overuse in this population. In a new study, researchers have found that deep neural networks can be used to predict the need for CT in pediatric mild traumatic brain injury. More...
