CEUS shows promise in patients with Fontan-associated liver disease
The prospective study is the first to describe CEUS findings for hepatic nodules arising in Fontan-associated liver disease.
Bar graphs show mean success (blue) and confidence (orange) according to diagnostic response (lesion present or absent, shown as “present” and “absent,” respectively) and next-step decision (submit, additional tests, and consult a senior) for each group (radiologists and nonradiologists). Error bars indicate standard errors of the mean. Lesion-absent diagnoses were more prone to error and overconfidence than were lesion-present diagnoses.

Study highlights overconfidence in medical decision-making
Exemplary cases from the ESCAPE-MeVO trial illustrating good, moderate, and poor collateral status at baseline multiphase CT angiography (CTA). (A) Sagittal image shows a left anterior middle cerebral artery medium-vessel occlusion (MeVO) with a calcified thrombus (arrow). (B–D) Axial images show the (B) arterial, (C) peak venous, and (D) delayed venous phases of the baseline multiphase CTA examination. The affected brain parenchyma is highlighted by the dashed outline. The collateral status is good, with early filling of more than 50% of the leptomeningeal collaterals compared with the contralateral side in the arterial phase (B), and there is no delayed washout in the peak venous (C) or delayed venous phase (D). (E) Sagittal image shows a left anterior middle cerebral artery MeVO (arrow). (F–H) Axial images show the (F) arterial, (G) peak venous, and (H) delayed venous phases of the baseline multiphase CTA examination. The affected brain parenchyma is highlighted by the dashed outline. The collateral status is moderate (more than 25% but less than 50% filling of the leptomeningeal collaterals in the affected territory compared with the contralateral side) on the arterial (F) and peak venous (G) phase, and there is delayed washout in the late venous phase (H). (I) Sagittal image shows a posterior dominant middle cerebral artery MeVO (arrow). (J–L) Axial images show the (J) arterial, (K) peak venous, and (L) delayed venous phases of the baseline multiphase CTA examination. The affected brain parenchyma is highlighted by the dashed outline. The collateral status is poor, with almost no collateral filling.

TAE reduces pain in patients with chronic wrist pain

A 44-year-old woman with TFCC injury treated by transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE). a) Right brachial arteriography via common femoral artery access with a 5-Fr catheter demonstrates hyperstaining on the ulnar side of the wrist joint (white circle). b) An ulnar artery branch is superselected with a 1.9-Fr microcatheter, showing hypervascular staining corresponding to the pain site (white arrow). c) Delayed-phase angiography reveals early venous drainage (white arrow) adjacent to the hyperstaining, a finding often observed in TAE and considered an additional marker for embolization. d) Final angiography after injection of 0.5 mL quick-soluble gelatin sponge particles (QS-GSPs) demonstrates resolution of the hyperstaining (white circle). The VAS pain score improved from 7 at baseline to 1 at six months.
Human-AI collaboration beats AI alone for identifying PE

Case example of a false-negative AI result. An 85-year-old female presented to the emergency department with dyspnea. Axial 0.625-mm from CT pulmonary angiography examination with contrast (CTPA) images demonstrate a thin, linear right-sided filling defect extending from the right interlobar pulmonary artery (A and B, red arrows) into the right middle lobar artery (B, yellow arrow), consistent with acute pulmonary embolism (PE). The finding was described in the radiology report; however, the AI result was negative for PE. Adjudication was consistent with acute PE.

AI devices vary widely in lung cancer detection

Cropped secondary capture examples. These are illustrative and not intended to imply superiority or inferiority of any device. (A) Posteroanterior radiograph in a 46-year-old female patient. The device correctly identified a right lower lobe nodule projected below the right hemidiaphragm and hilar lymphadenopathy. (B) Posteroanterior radiograph in an 86-year-old female patient with a classic Golden S sign highly suggestive of cancer. Three devices did not identify any findings. (C) The output from one device for the same radiograph as in B. The device placed a contour around the area of abnormality but mislabeled it as segmental collapse, and there are no other elements in the output to raise suspicion of cancer. (D) Posteroanterior radiograph in a 60-year-old male patient -- a case of confirmed lung cancer that was not deemed visible in retrospect. The device identified multiple false-positive abnormalities. (E) Posteroanterior radiograph in a 77-year-old female patient with two right lower lobe nodules. The device mislabeled the abnormality as infection -- a diagnostic term that could incorrectly influence clinical management. (F) Posteroanterior radiograph in a 77-year-old female patient with a right hilar tumor. Most of the lungs have been labeled by the device, with excessive overlap of the abnormality that pragmatically represents an incorrect result. All annotations shown were produced by the devices. LL = lung lesion, LO = lung opacity, PO = pleural other, TBC = tuberculosis.
MRI-based ML model shows promise in colorectal cancer subtyping
By Amerigo Allegretto
A machine-learning model based on MRI radiomics achieved high performance in predicting colorectal cancer subtypes.
May 19, 2026
Overview of the study design, including data collection, radiomics model construction, and biologic interpretation. (A) The primary cohort for model development and evaluation in the training and internal test sets includes 168 patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) from center 1 (Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center), whereas external testing was performed using data from 85 patients from centers 2 (Huashan Hospital, Fudan University) and 3 (Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University). For model interpretation, RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) data from 18 patients with CRC in center 1 and single-cell data from 35 patients from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database are incorporated. Mismatch repair (MMR) protein expression, obtained from pathologic reports in electronic medical records (EMRs), was used to identify patients with consensus molecular subtype 1 (CMS1) CRC. Tissue microarrays (TMAs) from surgically obtained CRC tissues were analyzed for immunohistochemical staining of caudal-type homeobox 2 (CDX2), 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 2B (HTR2B), FERM domain containing 6 (FRMD6), and zinc finger E-box binding homeobox 1 (ZEB1), and the results were subsequently entered into an online classification tool that assigned patients to CMS2, 3, or 4 subtypes. (B) Radiomics workflow for CMS4 prediction. Lesions were manually delineated on T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) and contrast-enhanced (CE) T1-weighted imaging (T1WI), followed by radiomics feature extraction. Feature selection and model development were performed in the training set using machine-learning algorithms with fivefold cross-validation for model selection, and the final model was evaluated in the internal and external test sets using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. (C) Transcriptomic interpretation workflow. Using the radiomics-predicted CMS4 classification, bulk RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) data were used to perform differential expression analysis between predicted CMS4 and non-CMS4 groups, followed by pathway enrichment analyses to assess biologic relevance. Public single-cell RNA sequencing data from the Gene Expression Omnibus database were then used for cell-type–level interrogation to support interpretation of the associated pathways.
