Discuss Does double reading improve breast cancer screening?
April 19, 2018 -- Double reading of mammography screening exams -- and using a third reader or a consensus process to resolve any interpretation discrepancies -- increases the number of cancers detected and reduces recalls, according to a study published online April 10 in Radiology.

Discuss Will ultrasound and AI become the tricorder of the future?
April 19, 2018 -- Artificial intelligence (AI) will soon bring many benefits to point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS), and perhaps one day it will enable these systems to fulfill the promise of the legendary tricorder from "Star Trek." But it could also lower the bar in terms of who is able to read POCUS scans -- potentially threatening physicians.

Discuss 3D knee model reveals ACL tear same in men, women
April 18, 2018 -- When researchers recreated an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture using 3D models based on MR scans of knees, they found no mechanistic differences in the injury between men and women, according to an article published online April 18 in the American Journal of Sports Medicine.

Discuss MRI for knee pain adds cost with negligible benefit
April 18, 2018 -- The early diagnosis of an abnormality in any part of the body is often seen as a way to speed recovery. Having an MRI scan for knee pain when symptoms begin, however, hikes healthcare costs with no great benefit to the patient's quality of life, according to a study published online April 17 in Radiology.
