Medical Imaging

Physicians utilize medical imaging to see inside the body to diagnose and treat patients. This includes computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), X-ray, ultrasound, fluoroscopy, angiography, and the nuclear imaging modalities of PET and SPECT.

MRI data suggest COVID likely affects the neurological health of everyone, even those who fully recover
Even if an individual has fully recovered from COVID-19 and is able to return to their normal routines, the structural and chemical makeup of their brain may not return to its pre-COVID state.
Radiology dominates FDA-cleared AI, but reimbursement lags far behind
As of January 2026, there will only be two CPT category 1 payment codes for newer AI, despite there being hundreds of FDA-cleared medical imaging algorithms.

MRI data suggest COVID likely affects the neurological health of everyone, even those who fully recover

Even if an individual has fully recovered from COVID-19 and is able to return to their normal routines, the structural and chemical makeup of their brain may not return to its pre-COVID state.

Eric Rubin, MD, vice president of clinical operations at Virtua Health, and the American College of Radiology's CPT advisor to the American Medical Association (AMA), explains the process for creating a Category I CPT code for payments and the difference with Category III temporary tracking codes.

Cencora to buy nationwide oncology network in $5B deal

The Pennsylvania-based drug distributor announced it would be buying OneOncology, a physician-led specialty service group in which it already owned a minority stake. The company said the acquisition will complement its "pharmaceutical-centric strategy."

Dynamic chest radiography could be an alternative to pulmonary function tests for diagnosing COPD

Dynamic chest radiography could potentially replace pulmonary function tests

The X-ray technique uses continuous radiographic acquisition during respiration to assess lung function.

Nearly half of after-hours CT reports handled by residents contain discrepancies

A new analysis published in Emergency Radiology examines how likely it is for these discrepancies to lead to changes in diagnosis and patient care.
