CT lung cancer screening foiled by low adherence
More than 20% of U.S. military veterans who had a negative baseline CT lung cancer screening exam did not return for their follow-up exam, according to a study presented at the 2018 American College of Chest Physicians meeting in San Antonio.

EPA proposal may lead to looser radiation regulations
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has proposed a rule change that could pave the way for less-stringent regulations limiting population-level radiation exposure, including from medical imaging, according to an October 2 report from the Associated Press.

New decision aids may revamp CT lung cancer screening
Are current decision aids used to guide CT lung cancer screening biased against the exam? A proponent for lung screening has developed two new decision aids that he believes more accurately reflect the benefits and harms of the exam -- and could boost screening uptake in eligible individuals.

Calcium scores on CT colonography predict cardiac events
In another side benefit to CT colonography screening, researchers have discovered that the technique can measure abdominal aortic calcification, which could be more effective than traditional measures for estimating a person's risk of heart attack, death, and other cardiovascular events, according to an October 2 article in Radiology.

Using AI with mammography can help select women for breast MRI
By Amerigo Allegretto
Using AI with mammography can help select women at high risk of breast cancer for supplemental MRI.
February 4, 2025
Images depict a 55-year-old woman with a family history of breast cancer who underwent combined mammography and MRI screening. (A) Right and (B) left mediolateral oblique and (C) right and (D) left craniocaudal mammograms show a large known cyst in the left breast (arrow in B and D), but were otherwise assessed as being unremarkable. Breast tissue was judged to be extremely dense. (E) Concurrent axial subtraction MRI scan shows a large, diffuse, invasive lobular cancer (circle) in the right breast. The AI system provided a case-based cancer suspicion score of 8 on a scale of 0-10, which would have led to selection for MRI screening using both the score 5 and score 8 thresholds, but not the score 9 threshold.
