The LLM incorrectly suggested synovial sarcoma but provided a persuasive rationale (quality score: 4 of 5), describing a well-defined nodule at axial contrast-enhanced CT spanning the pleura and intercostal space with heterogeneous strong enhancement. Four of five readers (80%) accepted the incorrect suggestion. FDG = fluorodeoxyglucose. <strong>(B)</strong> A 61-year-old male patient with diabetes presented with cough, sputum, and dyspnea (correct diagnosis: mucormycosis). The LLM correctly suggested mucormycosis with an excellent rationale (quality score: 5 of 5), integrating the reverse halo sign on serial axial CT images and rapidly progressive cavitary lesions. Three of five readers initially selected incorrect diagnoses; after LLM output, all five selected the correct diagnosis (100% acceptance). Blue and orange reader icons denote high- and low-expertise readers, respectively.https://www.auntminnie.com/clinical-news/molecular-imaging/article/15832202/petct-predicts-response-to-neoadjuvant-therapy-in-breast-cancerAuntMinnieen2026-08-11T19:37:05.000ZPET/CT predicts response to neoadjuvant therapy in breast cancerhttps://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/08/her2-pet.6pvoS2sIrU.jpg?auto=format%252Ccompress&q=70Ga-68 HER2-PET/CT images before neoadjuvant therapy, at end of second cycle, and before surgery. (A) Baseline scan demonstrated soft-tissue lesion measuring approximately 2.3 × 2.2 cm in upper outer quadrant of left breast, with marked radiotracer uptake and SUVmax of 10.1. (B) At end of second cycle, imaging revealed residual lesion of approximately 2.2 × 1.0 cm in same region, without abnormal radiotracer accumulation. (C) Preoperative imaging demonstrated further reduction in lesion size to approximately 2.0 × 0.6 cm, with no abnormal tracer uptake detected.https://www.auntminnie.com/clinical-news/womens-imaging/article/15832054/many-women-interested-in-aibased-risk-assessment-for-breast-cancerAuntMinnieen2026-08-10T18:31:45.000ZMany women interested in AI-based risk assessment for breast cancerhttps://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/08/breast-cancer-400.cKB6VssC7l.jpg?auto=format%252Ccompress&q=70https://www.auntminnie.com/editors-note/article/15831989/week-in-review-imaging-turnaround-times-dexa-scans-drop-off-minnies-nominationsAuntMinnieen2026-08-07T21:14:53.000ZWeek in Review: Imaging turnaround times | DEXA scans drop off | Minnies nominationshttps://www.auntminnie.com/clinical-news/ct/article/15831982/ct-5star-quality-rating-system-supports-optimizationAuntMinnieen2026-08-07T20:37:06.000ZCT 5-star quality rating system supports optimizationhttps://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/08/radiation-symbol.h3kBCW5L8u.jpg?auto=format%252Ccompress&q=70https://www.auntminnie.com/clinical-news/digital-x-ray/article/15831968/bone-scan-testing-has-fallen-35-among-medicare-beneficiariesAuntMinnieen2026-08-07T18:03:19.000ZBone scan testing has fallen 35% among Medicare beneficiarieshttps://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/08/dexa.PN7WP2Llnr.jpg?auto=format%252Ccompress&q=70https://www.auntminnie.com/clinical-news/mri/article/15831931/mribased-models-may-predict-atypical-brain-development-in-childrenAuntMinnieen2026-08-07T15:23:32.000ZMRI-based models may predict atypical brain development in childrenhttps://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/08/child-girl-stuffed-animal-400.0rLjrslFU9.jpg?auto=format%252Ccompress&q=70https://www.auntminnie.com/clinical-news/ct/article/15831895/directtoct-program-halves-imaging-times-for-outpatientsAuntMinnieen2026-08-06T21:50:55.000ZAvoiding the ED cuts urgent CT turnaround time by halfhttps://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/08/emergency2.MpxNEZ5LS5.jpg?auto=format%252Ccompress&q=70https://www.auntminnie.com/clinical-news/digital-x-ray/article/15831864/vlms-miss-most-lung-nodules-on-chest-xraysAuntMinnieen2026-08-06T19:08:02.000ZVLMs miss most lung nodules on chest x-rayshttps://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/08/chatgpt2.uz3DMG1zFJ.jpg?auto=format%252Ccompress&q=70https://www.auntminnie.com/clinical-news/mri/article/15831785/ge-healthcare-union-complains-about-ge-healthcare-labor-disputeAuntMinnieen2026-08-05T22:06:48.000ZUnion complains about GE HealthCare labor disputehttps://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/08/ge-healthcare-logo-new-march-2023.K0UaVoTiMo.jpg?auto=format%252Ccompress&q=70https://www.auntminnie.com/practice-management/article/15831772/patientfriendly-radiology-reports-improve-family-comprehensionAuntMinnieen2026-08-05T20:55:41.000ZPatient-friendly radiology reports improve family comprehensionhttps://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/08/pediatric-imaging.u8tLXEoCEU.jpg?auto=format%252Ccompress&q=70
