Emily Hayes[email protected]BreastRisk analysis could help triage women for mammographyPrioritizing which women receive breast screening based on their risk factors could enable breast centers to focus on the patients who need screening most during backlogs such as what occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic according to a new study.March 24, 2021BreastStudy claims breast centers flout mammography screening guidelinesA new study published March 15 in JAMA Internal Medicine claims that breast cancer centers are promoting mammography screening for women in their 40s, contrary to guidelines from the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force. Imaging experts are disputing the findings.March 14, 2021BreastBreast cancer data may fuel debate on screening women over 75Breast cancer is common in women over the age of 75 and many older women are getting screening mammograms, according to data published March 5 in Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. The data come as the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force is reviewing its breast screening guidelines.March 11, 2021BreastBetter access to imaging would save lives, Lancet report saysBetter access to medical imaging in low- and middle-income countries would save almost 2.5 million lives lost to cancer, according to a new report presented at ECR by the Lancet Oncology Commission on Medical Imaging and Nuclear Medicine.March 4, 2021UltrasoundAI-guided echo helps novice nurses perform ultrasoundNurses with no training in ultrasound were able to acquire diagnostic-quality echocardiography images thanks to the guidance of an artificial intelligence (AI)-based software application, according to a study published February 18 in JAMA Cardiology.February 18, 2021UltrasoundLung ultrasound at bedside predicts COVID-19 outcomesA scoring system based on lung ultrasound scans could predict intubation, death, and other negative outcomes in COVID-19 patients, according to a recent study published in Annals of Intensive Care.February 18, 2021Digital X-RayStudy flags cancer risks from dental x-raysExposure to radiation from dental x-rays caused an estimated 967 cancers in the U.S. in 2019, according to a recent study. Of these cancers, the vast majority could have been prevented, the researchers found.February 17, 2021BreastDeath rate for younger women with breast cancer poised to climbThe death rate for women under 40 with breast cancer in the U.S. used to be waning, but it is now poised to rise, along with an increased incidence in distant-stage breast cancer, according to a new study in Radiology.February 8, 2021BreastStudy makes case for baseline mammography exam at age 40A baseline mammography exam at age 40 for average-risk women to identify breast density appears to be cost-effective, according to a study published February 8 in the Annals of Internal Medicine.February 7, 2021Radiation Oncology/TherapyHypofractionated radiotherapy helped England survive COVID-19Greater use of hypofractionated dosing regimens helped radiation oncology sites deliver radiation therapy to cancer patients in England during the COVID-19 pandemic, offsetting a massive decline in treatment sessions overall, according to a study published January 22 in Lancet Oncology.January 25, 2021Previous PagePage 2 of 4Next PageTop StoriesISMRM 2025ISMRM: Synthesized MR images mitigate patient exposure to gadoliniumUsing synthesized "contrast-enhanced" images can address gadolinium-related health concerns and cut exam time.ISMRM 2025ISMRM: MRI postoperative imaging useful for DBS treatment planningISMRM 2025ISMRM: DMI metabolic modeling provides insight for neuro diseasesISMRM 2025ISMRM: AI reconstruction can improve sustainability in MRIWomens ImagingBreast texture patterns on mammo may predict cancer risk in dense breasts
