Breast ultrasound (US) is a vital diagnostic tool, particularly for individuals with dense breast tissue where traditional mammography may not always reveal early-stage cancers. Among the findings in ultrasound imaging are nonmass lesions (NMLs), areas of altered echotexture that lack the three-dimensionality of a typical mass. While these NMLs...Read more

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is considered the gold standard for diagnosing lumbar spine conditions due to its sensitivity in detecting structural abnormalities. However, the challenge lies in distinguishing abnormalities causing actual pain from incidental ones. Many patients present with similar MRI findings, irrespective of their symptomatic...Read more

In modern radiology, computed tomography (CT) imaging is vital in diagnosing liver diseases, particularly malignancies. The use of intravenous contrast agents is essential for enhancing liver visibility in CT scans. However, the one-size-fits-all approach in contrast administration can lead to suboptimal results. A recently published review in...Read more

Neck computed tomography (NCT) stands as a cornerstone in the diagnosis of suspected neck tumours and abscesses. However, the conventional reconstruction techniques used in NCT often pose a dilemma: how to balance diagnostic accuracy with radiation exposure. The quest for a solution led researchers to explore the efficacy of an AI-based denoising...Read more

Subsolid nodules, including pure ground-glass nodules (pGGNs) and part-solid nodules (PSNs), are increasingly detected through incidental findings or lung cancer screening. Despite their generally slow-growing nature, these nodules carry a high risk of malignancy. While some are transient inflammatory processes, persistent nodules are often associated...Read more
