    Background MRI is a powerful diagnostic tool with a long acquisition time. Recently, deep learning (DL) methods have provided accelerated high-quality image reconstructions from undersampled data, but it is unclear if DL image reconstruction can be reliably translated to everyday clinical practice. Purpose To determine the diagnostic equivalence of prospectively accelerated DL-reconstructed knee…

    • A prospective study of 3.0-T knee MRI in 170 patients showed that deep learning–reconstructed accelerated images were diagnostically equivalent to conventional accelerated images for detecting pathologic features. @mattmucklm @DanielSodickson @cai2r https://t.co/l1hCczZoSS https://t.co/iNUYNzp7UR

    IntroductionSoon after Roentgen’s discovery of the x-ray (radiography) in 1895, chest fluoroscopy and chest radiography became established clinical procedures. The standard radiograph remained the mainstay of chest imaging for almost 80 years until the advent of CT, MRI, and PET imaging. Subsequent advances have resulted not only in…

    Purpose To update previously summarized estimates of diagnostic accuracy for acute cholecystitis and to obtain summary estimates for more recently introduced modalities. Materials and Methods A systematic search was performed in MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and CINAHL databases up to March 2011 to identify studies about evaluation of imaging modalities in patients who were suspected of…

    • The quoted sensitivity of CT was much higher than I would have guessed, so I went digging: The cited reference was the same systematic review I referenced above. https://t.co/ETIEpAb6mJ 8/

    • Like any test, RUQUS is not perfect in detecting cholecystitis. A systematic review in 2012 put pooled sensitivity at 81%, but as you see in plot of included studies, there's heterogeneity, with sensitivity as low as 50% in some studies. https://t.co/ETIEpAbEch 2/ https://t.co/f8xufbF8kc

    Background The American College of Radiology (ACR) Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (TI-RADS) is a recognized tool for management of thyroid nodules in adults but has not been validated in pediatric patients. Purpose To assess the performance of the ACR TI-RADS criteria for guiding decisions on whether to biopsy thyroid nodules in pediatric patients in a single referral center. Materials…

    Background To the knowledge of the authors, no strong evidence supports surveillance imaging in patients with head and neck cancer (HNC). Purpose To investigate the association between surveillance imaging and mortality using a population-based study design with statewide cancer registry data, all-payer claims data, and health care facility data. Materials and Methods The retrospective…

    Gallium 68 (68Ga)–labeled fibroblast activation protein (FAP) inhibitor (FAPI) PET is based on the molecular targeting of the FAP, which is known to be highly expressed in the major cell population in tumor stroma, termed cancer-associated fibroblasts. Among many FAP-targeted radiopharmaceuticals developed so far, 68Ga-FAPI exhibits rapid tracer accumulation in target lesions and low background…

    BECAUSE of the discoveries and developments in the field of nuclear physics during the past few years, artificial radio-activity is available in nearly all of the chemical elements. Although these new radio-active isotopes give off rays (beta rays, gamma rays, positrons, etc.) similar to those emitted by radium, they differ markedly from radium in several respects. In the first place, each…
