Can We Upskill Radiographers through Artificial Intelligence? 

The British Institute of Radiology

Shamie Kumar describes how AI fits into a radiology clinical workflow and her perspective on how a clinical radiographer could use this to learn from and enhance their skills. If the AI findings are seen in PACS, how many radiographers actually log into PACS after taking a scan or X-ray? Can Radiographers Up-Skill?

Deep-Learning Chest Radiograph Model Predicts Mortality for Community-Acquired Pneumonia

Imaging Technology

In this AJR accepted manuscript , a DL model was developed in 7,105 patients via one institution from March 2013 to December 2019 (3:1:1 allocation to training, validation, and internal test sets) to predict risk of all-cause mortality within 30 days after CAP diagnosis using patients’ initial chest radiograph. CURB-65 score). Hwang et al.

WBCT Indications Series: Midfoot Arthritis

CurveBeam AI

However, the severity of deformity and involved joints were difficult to determine on plain radiographs alone. As shown here, subluxation at the first and second TMT joints was better visualized on WBCT (bottom two scans) images than conventional radiographs (top scan). 2021 Jun;42(6):757-767.

Radiologists Must Monitor Novel Alzheimer’s Treatment Side Effect

Imaging Technology

In June 2021, the U.S. Most patients with asymptomatic ARIA meeting specific radiographic and clinical criteria may continue to receive treatment. The main pathologic feature of Alzheimer disease is a buildup of toxic amyloid-B. Disease-modifying drugs like monoclonal antibodies work by clearing toxic amyloid-B protein from the brain.

Lisfranc Fracture Dislocation

Global Radiology CME

A) AP radiograph of Lisfranc Fracture Dislocation demonstrates the circled “fleck sign” or Lisfranc ligament avulsion fracture fragment. (B) C) The lateral radiograph notes with a circle, the dorsal sub dislocation of the metatarsal base. Radiographs should be repeated after two weeks to ensure surgery is unnecessary.
