OAK BROOK, Ill., Feb. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- As artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly used in radiology, researchers caution that it's essential to consider the environmental impact of AI tools, according to a focus article published today in Radiology, a journal of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA).

Key Points: 
  • "The development and deployment of AI models consume large amounts of energy, and the data storage needs in medical imaging and AI are growing exponentially."
  • Dr. Hanneman and a team of researchers looked at the benefits and downsides of incorporating AI tools into radiology.
  • However, the energy required to develop AI tools and store the associated data significantly contributes to GHG.
  • To decrease GHG emissions from data storage and the AI model development process, the researchers also offered other suggestions.

OAK BROOK, Ill., Feb. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Annual breast cancer screening beginning at age 40 and continuing to at least age 79 results in the highest reduction in mortality with minimal risks, according to a new study published today in Radiology, a journal of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA).

Key Points: 
  • Despite research demonstrating that consistent participation in screening mammography can reduce breast cancer deaths by 40%, only 50% or less of eligible women actually participate in annual screening.
  • The American College of Radiology, the Society of Breast Imaging and the National Comprehensive Cancer Network recommend annual screening for women at average risk for breast cancer beginning at age 40 and continuing as long as the woman is in good health.
  • In the study, Dr. Monticciolo and colleagues performed a secondary analysis of Cancer Intervention and Surveillance Modeling Network (CISNET) 2023 median estimates of breast cancer screening outcomes.
  • The researchers compared the benefits of screening, including mortality reduction, life years gained, breast cancer deaths averted, and its risks—including benign, or unnecessary, biopsies and recall rates—for four different scenarios: biennial screening of women 50-74 (the longstanding USPSTF recommendation), biennial screening of women 40-74 (the task force's new draft recommendation), annual screening 40-74, and annual screening 40-79.

San Antonio, TX, Nov. 30, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A study presented at RSNA and published in Academic Radiology has found that Seno Medical’s Imagio® Breast Imaging System with opto-acoustic ultrasound (OA/US) imaging is more cost effective when compared to ultrasound alone in evaluating suspicious breast lesions.

Key Points: 
  • San Antonio, TX, Nov. 30, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A study presented at RSNA and published in Academic Radiology has found that Seno Medical’s Imagio® Breast Imaging System with opto-acoustic ultrasound (OA/US) imaging is more cost effective when compared to ultrasound alone in evaluating suspicious breast lesions.
  • Imagio’s® non-invasive opto-acoustic ultrasound (OA/US) technology provides functional real-time information about suspicious breast lesions, helping physicians characterize and differentiate masses that may — or may not — require more invasive diagnostic evaluation.
  • Imagio® OA/US technology combines laser optics and grayscale ultrasound to offer fused functional and anatomical breast imaging.
  • The opto-acoustic images provide a unique blood map in and around breast masses, while the ultrasound provides a traditional anatomical image.
