Despite evidence that breast imaging specialists outperform general radiologists, about 70% of screening mammograms are interpreted by generalists due to specialist shortages. AI-supported workflows may help address variability and standardize screening mammography performance.

In a new Radiology (RSNA Journal) article, Matthew McCabe, PhD, DeepHealth in Somerville, MA, and colleagues evaluated whether a multistage AI-driven workflow could improve screening performance of generalists and specialists.

The prospective study included 60 generalists and 35 fellowship-trained specialists who interpreted 577,742 mammograms. The AI workflow incorporated a computer-aided detection and diagnosis tool that routed AI-identified suspicious examinations not initially recalled for additional expert review.

With AI, generalists’ cancer detection rate increased from 3.76 to 4.99 cancers per 1,000 mammograms, and positive predictive value increased from 3.38% to 3.89% despite a higher recall rate (9.06% to 10.40%). Specialists’ detection rates were unchanged, and generalists using AI performed similarly to specialists using AI.

“The benefit of improved positive predictive value of recalls indicates a favorable shift in the screening process despite the observed increase in recall rate,” the authors conclude.

Malignant liver cancers such as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are a major global health challenge. In 2020, approximately 830,200 people worldwide died from HCC alone; by 2040, deaths could increase by 55%. The first-line curative treatment for small (≤3–5 cm) hepatic tumors is percutaneous ablation (PTA), which includes microwave and radiofrequency ablation.

Compared with surgical resection, PTA has a superior safety profile. However, most existing safety data are outdated. Ablation technology and procedural complexity have evolved and contemporary benchmarks for procedure-related mortality and major adverse events are needed.

To address this gap, Gary Doppelt, MD, St-Éloi University Hospital, Montpellier, and Caremeau University Hospital, Nîmes, France, and colleagues published a meta-analysis in Radiology of 4,149 patients who underwent PTA of malignant liver tumors across 49 studies. They found that 90-day procedure-related mortality was near zero and the major complication rate was only 3%.

“These results support PTA as a lowrisk treatment with consistent safety outcomes, reinforcing its central role as a cornerstone technique within the multidisciplinary management of liver malignant neoplasms,” the authors said.

Acute chest pain is a common concern in the emergency department (ED), but accurate diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is challenging. Although ACS is present in only 5% to 10% of patients with chest pain, most undergo extensive evaluation to avoid the clinical and legal ramifications of misdiagnosis.

Coronary CT angiography (CCTA) is the first-line modality for assessing stable chest pain of suspected coronary origin. According to a recent Radiology review, a logical next step is expanding CCTA to help triage appropriate patients with possible ACS.

Authors led by Rozemarijn Vliegenthart, MD, PhD, from the University of Groningen, the Netherlands, describe the current role of CCTA in managing different risk populations and optimizing resources. CCTA is a safe, reliable tool for triaging patients at low risk for ACS, they concluded. However, its role in triaging patients with higher risk is less certain and warrants more evaluation.

“Integrating CT-based plaque features, CT fractional flow reserve, and CT perfusion, along with high-sensitivity cardiac troponins, may enhance diagnostic pathways and improve triage effectiveness in the ED,” the authors summarized.
