The American College of Radiology (ACR) was picked by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) to train physicians to classify pneumoconiosis on chest x-rays, a specialist otherwise known as a “B Reader.”

Discharging patients with suspected acute coronary syndrome (ACS) under a 0- and 1-hour high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T protocol is helpful for clearing waiting rooms, according to work presented at the ESC Congress Sept. 3.

Standardized imaging protocols can help healthcare providers deliver high-quality care at a consistent rate, but getting everyone on the same page is often challenging.

Taking a nap once or twice a week—regardless of how long those naps are—can lower a person’s risk of incident heart disease, researchers report in the latest issue of BMJ Heart.

A team of researchers from Taiwan performed a first-of-its-kind external validation of four AI algorithms used to detect pulmonary nodules in chest x-rays, sharing their results in Clinical Radiology. The classifiers could help radiologists improve medical imaging care as a whole.

Looking to keep “compassion fatigued” call-center workers from growing increasingly insensitive to customers over the course of a workday, Humana’s mail-order pharmacy business has deployed AI-based software that sends reminders aimed at keeping the empathy consistent.

Researchers have successfully trained a convolutional neural network to detect congestive heart failure with 100% accuracy using data from just one heartbeat.

A single heartbeat is all a new neural-network technique needs to detect heart failure with 100% accuracy, according to a study slated for January 2020 publication in Biomedical Signal Processing and Control Journal.

The American College of Radiology (ACR) Education Center has been chosen by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) to train qualified physicians to identify signs of pneumoconiosis in chest x-rays.

People who currently take or have recently taken fluoroquinolones face higher odds of aortic and mitral regurgitation, according to a report out of Canada.
