A new project is seeking to make MRI scans up to 10 times faster by capturing less data. NYU’s Center for Advanced Imaging Innovation and Research (CAI2R) is working with the Facebook Artificial Intelligence Research group to “train artificial neural networks to recognize the underlying structure of the images to fill in views omitted from the accelerated scan.”

Machine learning is one of the hottest topics in radiology and all of healthcare, but reading the latest and greatest ML research can be difficult, even for experienced medical professionals. A new analysis written by a team at Northern Ireland’s Belfast City Hospital and published in the American Journal of Roentgenology was written with that very problem in mind.

A multi-institutional team of researchers has developed a new AI learning algorithm that can distinguish between low- and high-risk prostate cancer from multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) scans with higher sensitivity and predictive value than current risk assessment approaches, according to research published online Feb. 7 in the journal Scientific Reports.

Researchers have developed a new framework that uses machine learning to predict prostate cancer progression, according to new findings published in Scientific Reports.

Microsoft unveiled a new tool that allows healthcare organizations to create their own AI-powered chatbots and virtual assistants for various services.

An international group of researchers found evidence of unique patterns of brain activity that may explain the neurological difference between consciousness and unconsciousness, according to a Feb. 6 study published in Science Advances.

In a special report published Jan. 30 in the inaugural issue of Radiology: Artificial Intelligence, Luciano M. Prevedello, MD, and colleagues recognize the challenges of implementing AI into clinical workflows, but also offer potential solutions—specifically image-based competitions—which could foster faster, more collaborative AI research.
