Contouring is an instrumental process for radiation oncologists and their patients—but the method is highly subjective. Researchers found their deep neural network algorithm could result in massive time savings for providers.

A research team compiled of mathematicians, clinicians and imaging technicians from the University of Southampton in the U.K. recently developed a computational method to analyze x-ray images of the lungs for overall function and presence of fatal diseases.

When testing for prostate cancer, multiparametric MRI with or without targeted biopsy was more effective than the common standard transrectal ultrasonography-guided biopsy, but a recently published editorial argues more testing is needed.

On May 8, the Journal of the American Medical Association released an update to the 2012 U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommendation regarding prostate-specific antigen (PSA)-based screening for prostate cancer.

3D breast ultrasound can measure a patient's tumor response after receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) better than a standard breast MRI, according to a study published in the European Journal of Radiology.

Triple assessment including radiological imaging is the best practice for younger patients showing low-risk breast related symptoms, according to a new study published in Clinical Radiology.

A team from Washington University in St. Louis developed a proof-of-concept technique to detect tumor biomarkers via a blood test using noninvasive focused ultrasound. The method could potentially eliminate surgical biopsies, according to a study in Scientific Reports.

Recent research found the chances of survival in patients with lung cancer significantly improves if they are given immunotherapy treatment along with chemotherapy, according to a study in the New England Journal of Medicine.
