Recurrent high-grade astrocytomas (including glioblastoma and IDH-mutant grade 3 and 4 astrocytomas) remain one of the toughest challenges in brain cancer treatment. Even after surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy with temozolomide, the options available when the disease returns provide only limited benefit, and survival rates are very poor. This makes the search for new therapies urgent. … Read more
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
Summary: A groundbreaking study has shown that multiple sclerosis (MS) can now be accurately diagnosed with a specialized MRI scan, eliminating the need for invasive and often painful lumbar punctures. The scan, which takes just 8 minutes, detects brain lesions centered on veins—a hallmark of MS—using a technique called T2*-weighted MRI. Researchers introduced a simple … Read more

A nomogram that combines breast MRI-derived intra-tumoral heterogeneity (ITH) quantification with clinicopathologic factors may offer significant prognostic benefit in assessing neoadjuvant chemotherapy response in patients with breast cancer. In a new multicenter retrospective study, recently published in Radiology, researchers trained and evaluated the capability of the nomogram to predict pathologic complete response (pCR) in a … Read more

Should men with indeterminate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) results refrain from getting a subsequent biopsy for prostate cancer (PCa)? Is staged MRI interpretation a viable option in PCa screening? Should MRI be a first-line option in the screening of patients for PCa? In a new review, recently published in the American Journal of Roentgenology, researchers … Read more
