Can CAD software reduce missed fractures in the ED?
Tuesday, November 28 | 10:10 a.m.-10:20 a.m. | T3-SSMK06-5 | Room E351Deep learning-based computer-aided detection (CAD) software shows potential for helping to avoid missed fractures on radiographs in the emergency department (ED), according to this talk.Seeking to add evidence that computer-assisted fracture detection is accurate in clinical situations, a research team led by Huid Ruitenbeek of Erasmus Medical Center in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, developed a multitask deep neural network (MDNN). The MDNN was trained on 450,000 x-rays and tested on 150,000 x-rays for the purpose of detecting x-rays with and without frac...

AI model predicts scoliosis spinal curve progression
This study utilized a modified version of the CapsuleNet model to create an AI model that predicts in-brace AIS progression risk with a high sensitivity level at 90%,” the researchers wrote.As immediate next steps, the authors noted that more patients with AIS need to be prospectively recruited to generate a larger and complete dataset involving the accurate recording of at least the conventionally acknowledged risk factors for AIS progression and skeletal maturity indicators, along with the x-rays.“With a more comprehensive dataset, the feasibility of this automated multidimensional approach in predicting AIS progress...

AI boosts radiologist perception training
A team in Europe has launched a novel web application to help radiology trainees gain skills in detecting lung nodules on chest x-rays,. They provided a step-by-step description of how to use it in an article published October 24 in the British Journal of Radiology. Significantly, the app leverages deep learning-based image segmentation in combination with computer-simulated lung nodules to automatically generate cases, lead author Jens Borgbjerg, MD, PhD, of Akershus University Hospital in Oslo, Norway, told AuntMinnie.com.“For the novice, beginning interpretation of cross-sectional imaging can be a daunting task,” he...

Little nuclear physics lab to tackle Department of Energy ’s big data problem
At risk of drowning in the output from its own facilities, the Department of Energy (DOE) plans to build a major new computing center specifically to crunch experimental data. The agency will construct a $305 million High Performance Data Facility at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (JLab) in Newport News, Virginia, officials announced last w eek. To be completed by 2028, the new data center marks an evolution in the agency’s approach to science and gives a new lease on life to JLab, a small lab that currently focuses on nuclear physics and accelerator development. “This is a major res...

AI model shows promise for interpreting follow-up chest x-rays
A group in Seoul, Korea, has developed an AI model that could help reduce radiology workflows by identifying “no changes” in follow-up chest x-rays of patients in critical care, according to a study published October 24 in Radiology.In a test set of 533 pairs of patient x-rays (baseline and follow-up), the algorithm was highly accurate when interpreting those that showed no changes, wrote first authors Jihye Yun, PhD, Yura Ahn, MD, of the University of Ulsan, and colleagues.“Radiologists routinely compare the current and previous chest radiographs during interpretation to enhance the sensitivity for change detection ...
