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.

Brains age faster among residents in disadvantaged neighborhoods
By Amerigo Allegretto
MRI data show that living in disadvantaged neighborhoods is tied to adverse brain health.
September 15, 2026
National and state neighborhood-level disadvantage rankings of the study patients. (A) National disadvantage rankings are shown. Left: area deprivation scores mapped onto the state of Wisconsin, where the study sample resides, with national ranking deciles shown. Blue indicates less disadvantaged neighborhoods, whereas red indicates more disadvantaged neighborhoods. Right: histogram quantifying the number of patients in each Area Deprivation Index (ADI) decile. (B) Same as A, but state ranking deciles are shown. The distributions of both the national and state-level ADI rankings of the patients were skewed toward less disadvantaged neighborhoods. Maps were obtained from reference 36.
