While they may not understand much about the technology, they do have some thoughts on the subject, according to a qualitative study published online March 14 in the Journal of the American College of Radiology.March 18, 2019PACS/VNAAuntMinnie.com Imaging Informatics InsiderMarch 17, 2019PACS/VNAMobile App Spotlight: Rads ConsultAuntMinnie.com presents the next article in an ongoing series highlighting notable mobile apps in radiology. In this installment, we take a look at Rads Consult, created to assist referring physicians in appropriately ordering imaging studies, Rads Consult is a radiology-specific clinical decision support (CDS) tool designed for use on mobile devices.March 17, 2019AIAutomated algorithms track adherence to follow-up adviceAn algorithm based on natural language processing was able to analyze radiology reports for text that recommended follow-up imaging, while a second algorithm determined whether patients followed the recommendations, according to an article published online March 12 in the American Journal of Roentgenology.March 14, 2019AIAccuracy of AI algorithms may drop with independent dataThe performance of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms for classifying chest x-rays dropped when they were used with patient populations that were different from the ones on which they were trained, according to research published online March 5 in the Journal of Digital Imaging.March 12, 2019CTAAOS: QCT finds low bone density in lumbar fusion patientsPreoperative quantitative CT (QCT) scans in patients about to receive spinal fusion surgery show that many have low bone density that was previously undiagnosed, according to research presented March 12 at the annual meeting of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) in Las Vegas.March 11, 2019BreastMammo AI software yields workflow, economic benefitsA computer-aided detection (CAD) algorithm based on artificial intelligence (AI) proved to be better than traditional CAD in helping radiologists detect breast cancer. The AI-based CAD could also improve efficiency and increase revenues, according to research presented at ECR 2019 in Vienna.March 11, 2019AIAuntMinnie.com Artificial Intelligence InsiderMarch 10, 2019AIMost radiology AI studies lack proper validationRadiology artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms must be properly validated on external image data before being used clinically for image analysis tasks. But most studies in the literature haven't performed this crucial step, according to research published in the March issue of the Korean Journal of Radiology.March 7, 2019PACS/VNAPhilips to buy Carestream's healthcare IT businessRoyal Philips, the parent of Philips Healthcare, has signed a deal to acquire Carestream Health's IT business in a major consolidation within the radiology IT market.
