AI model on par with experts in finding femoral-neck fractures

By Amerigo Allegretto

The model improved expert performance in detecting these fractures on pelvic or hip radiographs.

September 9, 2026

Example anteroposterior (AP) pelvic radiographs showing simulated acquisition artifacts used for stage 1 artifact-robust pretraining. Images are derived from the same AP pelvic radiograph from a 75-year-old woman with a CT- or MRI-confirmed left femoral-neck fracture. (A) Original AP pelvic radiograph. (B) Simulated grid or cable-shadow artifact. (C) Simulated motion-blur artifact. (D) Simulated sensor saturation or overexposure artifact.

MSK AI tool for ultrasound shows promise for assisting novice imagers

The software evaluated for standard plane recognition and automatic key anatomy segmentation.

June 9, 2026

AI-acquired standardized planes. Example ultrasound images acquired in clinical settings with the on-cart, AI-based software, illustrating automated acquisition and anatomic annotation of three standard planes: (A) S5 dorsal longitudinal plane of the wrist joint, (B) S11 transverse section of the proximal carpal tunnel, and (C) S14 transverse section of the second and third flexor tendons. A1 = trochlea A1, Cap = capitate, C-M.JS = recess of the capitate-metacarpal joint, D&Ss = flexor digitorum profundus and superficialis tendons, FCR = flexor carpi radialis tendon, FD = flexor digitorum tendon, FPL = flexor pollicis longus tendon, L-C.JS = recess of the lunate-capitate joint, Lun = lunate, MN = median nerve, Pis = pisiform, Rad = radius, R-C.JS = recess of the radiocarpal joint, Sca = scaphoid, UA = ulnar artery, UN = ulnar nerve, 3rd Met = third metacarpal.

Study highlights overconfidence in medical decision-making

Researchers expose metacognitive commonalities and differences between experienced radiologists and nonradiologists.

May 26, 2026

Bar graphs show mean success (blue) and confidence (orange) according to diagnostic response (lesion present or absent, shown as “present” and “absent,” respectively) and next-step decision (submit, additional tests, and consult a senior) for each group (radiologists and nonradiologists). Error bars indicate standard errors of the mean. Lesion-absent diagnoses were more prone to error and overconfidence than were lesion-present diagnoses.

MRI highlights worse muscle health from ultra-processed foods

By Erik L. Ridley

A study has found that ultra-processed food consumption is tied to higher thigh-muscle fat infiltration on MRI.

April 14, 2026

Representative axial T1-weighted spin-echo thigh MRI scans in (A) a 61-year-old female participant and (B) a 62-year-old female participant. Both participants were of similar age and body mass index (BMI, calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared). Both had Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly scores above the mean score in the study. According to the World Health Organization definition, the participant in B qualified as having abdominal obesity (abdominal circumference ≥ 88 cm). Abdominal circumference is a measure of central obesity that captures fat distribution and serves as an indicator of cardiometabolic health. Compared with the participant in A, the participant in B had a higher proportion of ultra-processed food (UPF) in their diet (87.1% vs 29.5%) and exhibited fattier thigh muscles bilaterally, with Goutallier grade (GG) for all thigh muscles summing to 25 for the participant in A and 38 for the participant in B.
