Week in Review: AI industry news | ISCT 2025 coverage | Reimbursement for radiology AI

Erik Ridley Headshot

Dear AuntMinnie Member, 

Clinically oriented articles typically dominate our list of top stories, but this week, some significant AI industry news stole the limelight.  

Bayer’s decision to end its involvement in the radiology AI platform business was the most highly viewed story, followed by a report on GE HealthCare’s planned acquisition of MRI AI software developer icometrix

Readers were also interested in our continuing coverage of the International Society of Computed Tomography (ISCT) symposium in Brussels. Our third-most popular article highlighted a presentation on how to best allocate photon-counting CT resources

Other content from ISCT 2025 included stories on the use of CT for cardiometabolic screening and how radiologists can help reduce iodinated contrast media waste.  

Reimbursement has been an ongoing challenge for widespread adoption of radiology AI technology. A new study found that only about one-third of all software-as-a-service AI services billed to Medicare by radiologists are reimbursed. In other AI news, experts are extolling the potential benefits of “generalist” radiology AI

See below for the full list of our top stories from last week.
