Novel reporting workflow for automated integration of AI results into structured radiology reports

Insights into Imaging June 2024

Although artificial intelligence (AI) shows great potential to help radiologists in their daily clinical routine, integrating AI into the radiology workflow is often lacking, underutilizing its full potential. Therefore, this study aimed to develop a new reporting pipeline enabling automated pre-population of structured reports with results provided by commercially available AI tools. The authors successfully demonstrated that the AI to

AI in immunotherapy PET/SPECT imaging

Jeremy McGale, Laurent Dercle June 2024

Molecular medical imaging, with technologies like PET and SPECT, plays a crucial role in oncology for diagnosis and treatment tracking. Yet, interpreting these images, especially in gauging immunotherapy responses, presents challenges due to new patterns of response and progression as well as inherent subjectivity in image interpretation. While there’s a clear drive to harness artificial intelligence (AI) for improved clinical

Sharing is Caring – Promoting Radiomics Research Transparency and Sustainability

Hyun Soo Ko June 2024

Radiomics, a rapidly growing and innovative field in medical imaging, extracts detailed features from medical scans that could play a pivotal future adjunct role in patient care. However, the clinical adoption of radiomics is stalled by significant research heterogeneity and reproducibility issues [1]. The complex radiomics pipeline, requiring multidisciplinary expertise, often lacks transparency regarding sharing crucial details like software tools

Knee landmarks detection via deep learning

European Radiology June 2024

A deep learning-based approach was developed and validated in this study which aimed to automatically measure the patellofemoral instability (PFI) indices related to patellar height and trochlear dysplasia in knee MRI scans. The authors included a total of 763 knee MRI slices from 95 patients, annotating 3,393 anatomical landmarks. The results indicated that the developed models achieved good accuracy in

Coronary CT angiographic detection of in-stent restenosis via deep learning reconstruction

European Radiology May 2024

This feasibility study used deep learning reconstruction, Precise IQ Engine (PIQE), to quantify stent strut thickness and lumen vessel diameter, subsequently comparing it with values obtained using conventional reconstruction methods. The authors conducting this study examined 166 stents in 85 consecutive patients who had undergone CT and invasive coronary angiography (ICA) within 3 months of each other. The results demonstrated

Deep Learning-based framework shown as a valuable tool to determine the composition of thyroid nodules

European Radiology May 2024

The authors of this retrospective multicenter study proposed a deep learning-based framework to identify the composition of thyroid nodules while also assessing their malignancy risk. Their research demonstrated that convolutional neural networks (CNNs) were able to assist in the diagnosis of thyroid nodules and reduce the rate of unnecessary fine-needle aspiration. Key points: Article: Deep learning to assist composition classification

Using PET/CT radiomics in the preoperative prediction of clinical and pathological stages for esophageal cancer patients

Insights into Imaging May 2024

In this study, the feasibility and accuracy of PET-CT-based radiomics in preoperative prediction of clinical and pathological stages for esophageal cancer (EC) patients was investigated using a sample of 100 EC patients. The authors observed accurate prediction ability with combined PET and CT radiomics in the prediction of T stage, lymph node metastasis (LNM), and pstage, showing that PET-CT-based radiomics

A deep learning framework for intracranial aneurysms automatic segmentation and detection on magnetic resonance T1 images

European Radiology May 2024

This study featured a design of a deep learning-based framework for the automatic segmentation of intracranial aneurysms (IAs) on MR T1 images while also testing the robustness and performance of the framework. The authors were able to conclude that their deep learning framework could effectively detect and segment IAs using clinical routine T1 sequences, which offers potential in improving the

Complexities of deep learning-based undersampled MR image reconstruction

Constant Richard Noordman April 2024

Recent advances in AI have led to deep learning-based MR undersampled image reconstruction methods showing more speed-ups compared to traditional algorithms. MR undersampling is an excellent way to reduce scan time but can negatively impact image quality. Our literature review aims to inform a broader audience about this complex topic. This highly multidisciplinary science requires the informed input of many
