MRI links lead exposure, family income to brain development
Despite bans on leaded gasoline and lead-based paint, areas of high lead exposure still exist. MR images have helped uncover differences in brain structure and subsequently lower cognitive performances in children living in areas with these toxic conditions, according to a study published January 13 in Nature Medicine.

MRI shows slimmer tongue reduces sleep apnea
Losing weight in your tongue probably isn't one of your New Year's resolutions. But maybe it should be if you have sleep apnea. MR images show that a slimmer tongue can reduce the severity of obstructive sleep apnea, according to a study published online January 10 in the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine.

Might manganese make gadolinium obsolete for MRI scans?
Could a manganese-based MRI contrast agent provide equivalent MR image quality and help alleviate concerns surrounding the use of gadolinium-based contrast agents? New research indicates that it has some potential.

Two MRI indicators predict Fabry disease adverse events
How can clinicians best use cardiac MRI to identify which patients with Fabry disease are most at risk for an adverse event? The mystery can be solved through two particular assessments, according to a new study published in the January issue of Radiology.

Flortaucipir-PET shows moderate promise for CTE
PET imaging with flortaucipir revealed uptake patterns indicative of chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) in a new study published online January 6 in JAMA Neurology, but the tau-binding radiotracer is not quite ready to be declared a reliable biomarker for the condition, the authors noted.

PET shows tau better predicts brain atrophy than amyloid
PET scans comparing the location and magnitude of tau protein accumulation have shown that tau better predicts future brain atrophy in patients with Alzheimer's disease compared with amyloid deposition -- and a year or more in advance, according to a study published online January 1 in Science Translational Medicine.

Does thyroid cancer screening lead to overdiagnosis?
Two studies from the U.S. and South Korea are raising questions about the role of ultrasound screening and thyroid cancer incidence. Researchers specifically address the issue of overdiagnosis in studies published in the December 24/31 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association.

AI model detects achalasia on chest x-rays
By Will Morton
Currently, few noninvasive tests are available for diagnosing the swallowing condition.
September 18, 2025
Saliency maps using Grad-CAM++ (E and H) show the model’s point of interest in chest radiographs (C and F) of patients with achalasia. The model’s point of interest is highlighted with red, yellow, and green. In both the upper and lower panels (E and H), the point of interest is located in a region around the upper esophagus that corresponds to an air esophagogram and/or air-fluid level in the esophagus in the barium esophagogram (D and G).

Echogenic rind on breast ultrasound holds diagnostic significance
By Amerigo Allegretto
An echogenic rind on breast ultrasound could spell malignancy for suspicious lesions.
September 17, 2025
Diagnostic transverse ultrasound image of the left breast in a 64-year-old woman shows irregular hypoechoic nonparallel mass with indistinct margins corresponding to palpable finding, assessed as BI-RADS category 4. Both readers assessed mass as having associated echogenic rind with complete circumferential extent (arrowheads). Ultrasound-guided biopsy of mass yielded diagnosis of invasive ductal carcinoma (intermediate grade, luminal A molecular subtype, no lymphovascular invasion).
