Locating specific, localized distributions of fat and muscle in body composition is intuitively and imprecisely implied by body shape. Now, a team of researchers has discovered that the unique combination of modern deep learning models, specified equipment and three-dimensional body scans has given a quantitative validation on medical imaging that was previously only qualitative.

Brain Tumor Spotted on PET Imaging An AI algorithm named “JuST_BrainPET” identified a glioblastoma in a patient that had been missed by physicians. This finding, reported in the Journal of Nuclear Medicine, underscores the potential of AI-based decision support in diagnostic and treatment planning. The algorithm automatically segments metabolic tumor volume from healthy tissue on brain PET imaging.

Background: Use of vasopressors is a common practice to support hemodynamics and optimization of tissue perfusion in patients presenting with shock. Historically the administration of vasopressors was restricted to central venous catheters (CVC) due to concerns for local tissue injury resulting from vasoconstriction if extravasation occurred from a peripheral IV.
