Radiologists distinguish COVID-19 pneumonia on CT
The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is characterized by CT findings that match features of other pneumonia-causing viruses. But radiologists from the U.S. and China demonstrated that they are well-equipped to differentiate COVID-19 from these other viruses in a new study, published online March 10 in Radiology.

3 factors linked to risk of death from coronavirus
For individuals with the novel coronavirus disease, several factors were associated with an increased risk of death in a new study, published online March 9 in the Lancet journal. Careful observation and blood testing could help clinicians identify these individuals at an early stage, researchers say.

CT findings for coronavirus may overlap with adenovirus
Chest CT accurately detected the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in the vast majority of high-risk individuals prior to confirmation by laboratory testing, though it also misidentified COVID-19 for the adenovirus in a small percentage of cases in a new study, published online March 4 in the American Journal of Roentgenology.

Low-dose CT produces no detectable DNA damage
The debate over the potential harms of CT radiation carries on in a new study published online March 10 in Radiology. Researchers from Japan are reporting that they found no evidence of DNA damage in individuals who underwent low-dose CT scans -- while damage was detectable from standard-dose exams.

Model confidence, reader expertise affect reader-LLM collaboration
By Amerigo Allegretto
Successful human-LLM collaboration is associated with model confidence and reader expertise in chest imaging.
August 11, 2026
Example cases illustrate the double-edged role of large language model (LLM) rationale quality. (A) A 50-year-old female patient with a palpable anterior chest wall mass (correct diagnosis: solitary fibrous tumor of the pleura). The LLM incorrectly suggested synovial sarcoma but provided a persuasive rationale (quality score: 4 of 5), describing a well-defined nodule at axial contrast-enhanced CT spanning the pleura and intercostal space with heterogeneous strong enhancement. Four of five readers (80%) accepted the incorrect suggestion. FDG = fluorodeoxyglucose. (B) A 61-year-old male patient with diabetes presented with cough, sputum, and dyspnea (correct diagnosis: mucormycosis). The LLM correctly suggested mucormycosis with an excellent rationale (quality score: 5 of 5), integrating the reverse halo sign on serial axial CT images and rapidly progressive cavitary lesions. Three of five readers initially selected incorrect diagnoses; after LLM output, all five selected the correct diagnosis (100% acceptance). Blue and orange reader icons denote high- and low-expertise readers, respectively.
