3D and the future of imaging

The future of imaging is three-dimensional. Although it first came on the scene with the introduction of CT scanning in the late 1970s, perceptions that 3D had limited clinical application kept it out of the limelight. Now it's taking center stage, creating images that radiologists could only dream of decades ago.

CR versus DR -- what are the options?

The vast majority of imaging exams rely on radiography, the last modality to go digital. However, x-ray systems are coming on the market with larger image receptors, higher resolution, and increased functionality. Increased competition and innovation should mean lower prices and workflow improvement for imaging facilities.

Pre-treatment with rhTSH reduces 131I retention in thyroid

Researchers in the department of nuclear medicine at Johann W. Goethe University Hospital in Frankfurt examined 227 patients, 163 of whom were prepared for the therapy by thyroid hormone withdrawal and 64 of whom received recombinant human thyroid-stimulating hormone prior to therapy.

RIS/PACS integration -- what is it and what are its benefits?

When the RIS, PACS, and modalities operate and function as a single system, users can reduce film and chemical costs, reduce film-storage space requirements, and increase productivity due to better utilization of radiology assets. Most important, such a system will significantly improve service to patients and referring physicians.

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?

Axial contrast-enhanced CT scan in a 28-year-old premenopausal woman shows an incidentally detected solid-appearing left ovarian lesion (solid arrow) anterior to the uterus (U), associated with trace ascites in the right adnexa and cul de sac (dashed arrows). At pathologic analysis, this was shown to be ovarian dysgerminoma. Two readers misdiagnosed this lesion, one as a leiomyoma and one as an ovarian fibroma.

Radiologists can designate nonmass lesions on breast ultrasound

By Amerigo Allegretto

Breast radiologists achieved moderate to substantial interreader agreement for classifying nonmass lesions on ultrasound.

December 9, 2025

Images depict a 50-year-old woman with a lesion detected during screening ultrasound. (A) Transverse and (B) longitudinal images reveal a 0.5-cm hypoechoic lesion (arrow) in the left breast. (C) Transverse color Doppler ultrasound image does not show an increase in vascularity. Two readers classified the lesion as a mass, whereas two others categorized it as a nonmass lesion, leading to its designation as a controversial nonmass lesion. Ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy and subsequent pathologic examination confirmed a nonproliferative breast change.
