Neuroimaging

Neuroradiology is a branch of medical imaging focused on spotting abnormalities of the central and peripheral nervous system, spine, head and neck. These highly trained doctors use CT, MRI, X-ray and other techniques to diagnose strokes, tumors, aneurysms and other neurological conditions.

Algorithm accurately predicts dementia risk using a single MRI scan
The tool also can be used to predict a person's brain age and risk for a myriad of other chronic conditions as well.
Mayo Clinic develops AI capable of substantially improving dementia diagnoses
With the software's help, readers are up to three times more accurate and interpretations are nearly twice as fast.
Tau tangles on PET scans may signal impending cognitive decline in asymptomatic individuals
New data highlight the significance of tau-positive imaging in the progression of Alzheimer’s disease.
Signs of Alzheimer's evident on imaging up to 15 years prior to symptom onset in Down syndrome population
By identifying these structural changes prior to the onset of symptomatic neurodegeneration, providers may be able to initiate preventive therapies sooner.
'Promising' new PET agent for brain metastases put on FDA's Fast Track
Clinical trial results thus far have been promising, representing a significant step forward for the hundreds of thousands of patients affected by brain metastases.

Imaging shows why music makes us happy

Experts believe their findings could be significant for treating both pain and mental health disorders.

AI tool has 'untapped potential' for diagnosing and managing multiple sclerosis

The tool extracts brain region and white matter lesion volumes from any MRI of the brain, even less specialized sequences not traditionally used in the diagnosis or management of MS.

PET method offers new insight into inflammation of the brain

Researchers are hopeful that their technique could improve the diagnosis of conditions associated with neural inflammation.

Researchers track dopamine receptors to study its impact on cognitive function.

New PET study offers insight into how dopamine drives executive function

These findings could help guide the development of new treatments for psychiatric and neurological disorders.

Experts identify 'critical window' when early signs of neurodegeneration become visible on imaging

These findings may lead to new screening guidelines that could change how imaging is utilized in the aging population.

AI is revolutionizing radiology workflow and patient care

Sponsored by Viz.ai

In the rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, artificial intelligence (AI) is making significant strides in improving radiology workflow and patient care coordination. Nicholas Galante, MD, medical director of informatics at Radiology Associates of North Texas, recently discussed how technology from Viz.ai is transforming his radiology practice, enhancing efficiency, and ultimately benefiting patient outcomes.

ALS drug repurposed for PET imaging

Researchers radiolabeled the drug so that they could follow its movement and breakdown in the body to help visualize areas of oxidative stress.

How TikTok 'brain rot' impacts brain structure and function

While social media addiction has been known since the emergence of Facebook, many believe that TikTok took digital dependence to another level.
