Advanced use of MRI aids in accurate identification of rare, atypical parkinsonian disorders

An international study led by researchers from the Sant Pau Research Institute (IR Sant Pau) shows that advanced use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) allows much more accurate identification of patients with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and corticobasal degeneration (CBD). These are two rare and clearly underdiagnosed atypical parkinsonian disorders. The study, published in The Journal … Read more

Possible Real-Time Adaptive Approach to Breast MRI Suggests ‘New Era’ of AI-Directed MRI

New research suggests the potential of employing artificial intelligence (AI) in real-time to help determine whether to proceed with a full breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination or opt for an abbreviated breast MRI (AB-MRI). For the retrospective study, recently published in Radiology, researchers performed a simulation study with a cohort of 863 women to … Read more
