Chemotherapy tops radiation in endometrial cancer, but with high toxicity

CHICAGO - The results of the decade-long Gynecologic Oncology Group Study 122 found that 51.5% of women who received the chemotherapy regimen were free of disease recurrence after 24 months. In comparison, 46.5% of women who underwent whole abdominal radiotherapy were disease-free during the same time period.

3D MRI technique helps plan treatment for pediatric heart conditions

Images of a 39-year-old who underwent screening mammography. Right craniocaudal (left) and mediolateral oblique (middle) views from preoperative mammography show suspicious grouped fine pleomorphic calcifications (arrows). After biopsy showed ductal carcinoma of situ (DCIS), patient underwent breast-conserving surgery, yielding final diagnosis of ductal carcinoma in situ (intermediate grade, hormone receptor positive). (Right) Screenshot of an output of a commercial AI tool applied to preoperative mammography. AI detected right breast lesion with score of 95% on both views (concentric colored circles). Present study’s reviewing radiologist deemed AI marking to correspond with site of DCIS.

Could AI scoring help with managing DCIS?
