The color scale represents (A) BPND and (B) SUVR values. On the bottom, average z-score maps were generated to visualize regional reductions in F-18 SynVesT-1 BPND and F-18 FDG SUVR in bvFTD relative to healthy controls. For each voxel, z-scores were calculated as z = (bvFTD−meanHC )/SDHC. Negative z-scores indicate lower synaptic density or glucose metabolism in the bvFTD compared with controls in the regions. BPND, non-displaceable binding potential; bvFTD, behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia; F-18 FDG, F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose; MNI, Montreal Neurological Institute; SUVR, standardized uptake value ratio.https://www.auntminnie.com/editors-note/article/15821959/week-in-review-radiologys-hidden-safety-risks-paying-for-ai-mammography-new-invisible-force-episodeAuntMinnieen2026-04-10T18:25:35.000ZWeek in Review: Radiology's hidden safety risks | Paying for AI mammography? | New 'Invisible Force' episodehttps://www.auntminnie.com/imaging-informatics/advanced-visualization/article/15821961/llm-could-help-translate-radiology-reports-for-patientsAuntMinnieen2026-04-10T18:01:03.000ZLLM could help translate radiology reports for patientshttps://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/04/radiological-report-400-1.yBuxg4PGSs.jpg?auto=format%252Ccompress&q=70https://www.auntminnie.com/clinical-news/mri/article/15821839/a-hairraising-mri-safety-concern-weft-extensions-with-metallic-beadsAuntMinnieen2026-04-09T19:53:03.000ZA hair-raising MRI safety concern: Weft extensions with metallic beadshttps://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/04/brock.xg5W2VZn00.avif?auto=format%252Ccompress&q=70<i>Kelly Brock</i>https://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/04/hair-extensions-sm.MMuGJOEl3c.jpg?auto=format%252Ccompress&q=70https://www.auntminnie.com/clinical-news/molecular-imaging/article/15821863/pet-links-brain-metabolism-to-survival-in-lung-cancer-patientsAuntMinnieen2026-04-09T19:35:20.000ZPET links brain metabolism to survival in lung cancer patientshttps://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/04/pet-brain-lung-cancer.MsxT9ILpCD.jpg?auto=format%252Ccompress&q=70A visual abstract of the studyhttps://www.auntminnie.com/imaging-informatics/enterprise-imaging/article/15821745/visage-imaging-visage-imaging-inks-144m-contract-with-university-of-marylandAuntMinnieen2026-04-08T20:21:14.000ZVisage Imaging inks $14.4M contract with University of Marylandhttps://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/04/visage.Vs6dqM0rd3.jpg?auto=format%252Ccompress&q=70https://www.auntminnie.com/imaging-informatics/advanced-visualization/article/15821741/vr-glasses-soothe-patients-undergoing-trusguided-prostate-biopsyAuntMinnieen2026-04-08T18:31:28.000ZVR glasses soothe patients undergoing TRUS-guided prostate biopsyhttps://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/04/virtual-reality-goggles2-400.4ee7gD17Bg.jpg?auto=format%252Ccompress&q=70https://www.auntminnie.com/practice-management/article/15821740/study-reveals-radiologys-hidden-safety-risksAuntMinnieen2026-04-08T17:58:34.000ZStudy reveals radiology's hidden safety riskshttps://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/04/patient-safety.8ReHszI0p5.jpg?auto=format%252Ccompress&q=70https://www.auntminnie.com/clinical-news/ct/article/15821717/no-pcct-radiology-departments-can-still-reduce-contrast-doseAuntMinnieen2026-04-08T17:11:30.000ZNo PCCT?

The DXA report was reformatted for anonymization and improved readability. The patient had low BMD (Z score ≤ −2.0). (C) Model (chest radiography [CXR]–BMD) output shows the predicted raw BMD and Z score in comparison with the DXA reference standard, together with interpretability analyses using Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) and gradient-weighted class activation maps. The patient was classified as having low BMD, consistent with the reference standard.
