LI-RADS CT/MRI liver malignancy features show high interreader agreement
Contrast-enhanced T1 weSPGR images of the knee of a patient from the GAE group at the level of the suprapatellar recess. The baseline image (left) shows a marked synovial enhancement. There was no change one month after treatment (middle image) and four months after treatment (right image).

AI plus CCTA cuts plaque analysis time, predicts cardiac event risk
By Kate Madden Yee
A deep-learning model quantifies coronary plaque volume from coronary CT angiography (CCTA) images.
April 21, 2026
Two representative cases demonstrate the performance of PlaqueSegNet for coronary plaque segmentation. (A–D) Coronary CT angiography (CCTA) and intravascular US (IVUS) images in a 65-year-old male patient with chest pain for two months show plaque. (A) Cross-sectional IVUS image shows a lipid-rich plaque (hypoechoic, arrows). (B) Axial and (C) cross-sectional CCTA images show the same plaque (low-attenuation area, yellow line and arrows) in the proximal left anterior descending artery. (D) PlaqueSegNet segmentation of the noncalcified plaque (yellow shading) and coronary lumen (green shading) in the cross-sectional image. (E–G) CCTA images in a 57-year old female patient with chest pain for three months show multiple plaques. (E) Volume-rendered CCTA image of the coronary tree shows PlaqueSegNet plaque segmentation (yellow) in the right and left coronary arteries. (F, G) PlaqueSegNet segmentation delineates a mixed plaque (yellow shading) and coronary lumen (green shading) in the left main artery and proximal-to-mid left anterior descending artery.

FAPI-PET superior to FDG-PET in liver cancer
By Will Morton
The finding is from a prospective head-to-head comparison among 59 patients with suspicious lesions.
April 20, 2026
A 65-y-old man with HCC and liver cirrhosis confirmed by MRI. Ga-68 FAPI-46 PET/CT demonstrates increased focal uptake (SUVmax, 13.26, and TBRmax, 2.89) in liver, whereas F-18 FDG-PET/CT scans showed non–F-18 FDG-avid lesion (SUVmax, 3.24, and TBRmax, 1.43), indicated by solid arrows. Additionally, histologically proven adenocarcinoma in colon transversum was identified as pathologic with Ga-68 FAPI-46 alone (dashed arrows).
