In conclusion of this two-part series, ITN summarizes the RSNA21 panel of radiologists and biomedical imaging experts discussing the present, and future, state of artificial intelligence in radiology

What follows is the second part of our coverage of the “Radiology: Artificial Intelligence Fireside Chat” conducted at RSNA 2021.
A look inside the imaging industry’s efforts to enhance lung cancer screenings

“Lung cancer is the deadliest cancer in men and in women, and it all boils down to how it is detected and when it is diagnosed,” said Michael Wert, MD, director of The James Lung Cancer Screening Clinic at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. Referencing screening programs, like the one he leads, he emphasized, “It’s low risk, high reward.”

September 15, 2022 — On behalf of the nation's radiation oncologists and the more than one million people with cancer they will treat this year, the American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) applauded today's House passage of bipartisan federal legislation that would rein in restrictive prior au

September 15, 2022 — University of Minnesota Twin Cities scientists and engineers have found a way to improve the performance of traditional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) reconstruction techniques, allowing for faster MRIs to improve healthcare. 

September 15, 2022 — The intestine is very susceptible and is affected by the harsh conditions caused by DNA-altering agents, such as radiation and chemotherapy, during cancer treatment. For example, many patients with tumors in the gastrointestinal cavity receive radiotherapy, a treatment that often also damages the healthy intestine and affects its regenerative capacity.

An overview of magnetic resonance imaging technology as it relates to the field of radiology

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is used to assess, identify and track a variety of medical disorders. Radio waves, a strong magnet and a processer are used in an MRI examination to provide detailed images of the internal body components. Strong magnetic fields are used to alter the spin of atoms in the body.

An estimated 24% of women in the United States will suffer from a pelvic floor disorder in her lifetime, with that varying significantly with age, as by the time women are 80 years old, up to 50% are affected. This number is expected to increase by over 70% by the year 2050, primarily due to an aging population.1 This makes them one of the most common health issues for women, and yet they are vastly underdiagnosed and undertreated.

September 15, 2022 – Intelerad Medical Systems, a leading global provider of enterprise imaging solutions, announced its acquisition of Life Image, one of the largest image exchange networks of curated clinical and imaging data.

Large-scale mergers and acquisitions are causing increased strain on IT teams responsible for consolidating and managing infrastructure across an organization. When coupled with AI integrations, cloud migration, and other technological advancements, the already immense pressure on IT infrastructure is being exacerbated to new levels.

September 14, 2022 — A revolutionary mobile imaging system that delivered the industry’s first collapsible column is celebrating its 10-year anniversary. The popular DRX-Revolution Mobile X-ray System paved the way for market-leading innovation from Carestream that continues to improve the lives of customers today.
