Standard imaging with digital mammography and US had been performed and showed an M4 and U4 12-mm lesion. Core needle biopsy was performed and showed invasive lobular carcinoma (B5). The CEM series—<strong>(A)</strong> low-energy craniocaudal projection, <strong>(B)</strong> recombined craniocaudal projection, <strong>(C)</strong> low-energy mediolateral oblique projection, and <strong>(D)</strong> recombined mediolateral oblique projection—shows that the main lesion is 16 mm and findings of multifocality consisting of at least six additional lesions with a total malignant extent of 80 mm. Biopsy from one of the additional lesions at a second-look US confirmed invasive cancer. The surgical plan was modified from partial mastectomy to mastectomy. Postoperative histopathologic examination showed multifocal lobular invasive breast cancer with a total extent of 107 mm.https://www.auntminnie.com/resources/conference/caimi/2026/article/16274659/ai-platform-maintains-success-in-two-pediatric-imaging-pipelinesAuntMinnieen2026-11-02T19:40:08.000ZAI platform maintains success in two pediatric imaging pipelineshttps://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/11/screenshot-2026-11-02-123751.n2FhVbTA5g.png?auto=format%252Ccompress&q=70Illustrative case from one examination; not an image-quality validation.

No definite site of disease was identified on axial F-18 piflufolastat PET/CT (A) and PET (B) images. Twenty-six days later, axial F-18 fluciclovine PET/CT (C) and PET (D) images showed abnormal uptake (arrows) in right prostatectomy bed, suggestive of local recurrence. PSA became undetectable after targeted radiation.https://www.auntminnie.com/clinical-news/article/16050495/5-institutions-command-38-of-nih-radiology-research-fundingAuntMinnieen2026-10-29T17:59:37.000Z5 institutions command 38% of NIH radiology research fundinghttps://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/10/nih-funding.0sMAQAVuTt.jpg?auto=format%252Ccompress&q=70https://www.auntminnie.com/clinical-news/mri/article/16050355/mri-pet-reveal-distinct-brain-changes-in-loneliness-and-social-isolationAuntMinnieen2026-10-28T20:24:40.000ZMRI, PET reveal distinct brain changes in loneliness and social isolationhttps://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/10/loneliness-isolation.KMsu4n76wh.jpg?auto=format%252Ccompress&q=70Gray matter cortical and subcortical regions showing exclusive patterns of association with social isolation or loneliness.

At baseline, this participant in the National Lung Screening Trial currently smoked (47 pack-years) and had a body mass index of 25.7 (calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared), a volumetric bone mineral density of 73 mg/cm3 (averaged over T10–T12 using calibration parameters for a GE Medical Systems CT scanner and acquisition at 120 kVp), and a grade 3 (G3) vertebral fracture at T8. At 1-year follow-up, he had an incident grade 2 (G2) vertebral fracture at T6. Images from left to right are as follows: unenhanced axial low-dose CT image with 2.5-mm section thickness used as input imaging data; software-generated sagittal reformations in the full field of view and cropped to the spine, with labeled vertebrae and detected fractures; and three-dimensional renderings of the spine segmentation (regions of interest for the extraction of CT attenuation values are shown in red).
