AI boosts radiologist perception training

AuntMinnie

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. Self-directed learning is a mainstay of radiological education.

VR/AR helps clinicians diagnose diverticulitis on CT

AuntMinnie

Previous research has suggested that currently available virtual/augmented reality (VR/AR) headsets may rival desktop computer systems when it comes to evaluating radiologic images; some VR/AR headsets contain up to 23 million pixels at a 7.5 to 5 for ease of use; from 3 to 4.7 for positive experience; and from 2.2 for preference.
