We enjoyed talking to Michael Sistenich of @enlitic and Ilham Gharbi of @GEHealthCare about the benefits of data standardization in radiology and how it enables imaging facilities to unlock the value of their data. Check out the video at youtu.be/BuSaAEH0bWA #radiology

It was a pleasure talking to Lisa Walling of Oklahoma City Indian Clinic and Luann Culbreth of @UnitedImagingHC about the Leaders of Choice program for #radiology professionals. Check it out at youtu.be/PpxLJeOzAEs.

Pleased to announce the 300th episode of The Imaging Wire Show! Our milestone show features an interview with Michael Denning on his experiences with AI echocardiography software from @us2_ai Check it out at youtu.be/joFvyqRPnmQ. #cardiology #medicalimaging #echoAI #AIecho

The good news: Low-dose CT lung cancer screening is becoming more popular. The bad news: Radiologists are interpreting the scans in very different ways. Read more about that in TIW #825, plus… - Finding a job in radiology might have just gotten easier thanks to @medalityhq’s new job portal. - Digital X-ray components supplier Varex Imaging Corporation has agreed to be acquired by Teledyne Technologies for $1.1B. - @OSFHealthCare is expanding its use of @RapidAI AI solutions for detecting stroke across all 18 hospitals in its network. theimagingwire.com/newslette…

Reserve your seat at our August 24 webinar to discuss how #radiology leaders are modernizing radiology reporting systems with PowerScribe One from @Microsoft. us06web.zoom.us/webinar/regi…

As radiology strives to reduce CT radiation dose, one of its challenges is maintaining image quality while keeping dose low. A new five-star system for rating images is described in a new paper in EJR and could offer a solution by establishing an easy-to-understand global metric.

A new 5-star rating system may help clinicians strike a balance between low-dose radiation and high-quality imaging. 💡 Read more about that in TIW #824, plus… - Why is the U.S. lagging in MRI use for prostate cancer? - Say hello to the newest imaging journal: The Lancet Medical Imaging & Theranostics. - Patients with lung cancer treated at VA hospitals have better clinical outcomes, per a new JNCI Cancer Spectrum study. theimagingwire.com/newslette…

X-ray is radiology's bread and butter modality, and new innovations are still becoming available. One of them is slot-scanning X-ray for orthopedic applications. We discuss some of them in this edition of The Imaging Wire Show. Check it out at youtu.be/3Jxcd4w1uD8. #radiology

Radiologists are taking longer to interpret medical images than they did 10 years ago … and it’s a problem that appears to be getting worse. New data from the ACR’s @NeimanHPI group, published in @JACRJournal, show that report turnaround times rose 27% between 2023 and 2024.

Why is it taking radiologists so much longer to interpret medical images? Rising demands and falling workforce numbers may be to blame. More on that in TIW #823, plus… - One way to speed up the workflow could be to use AI to prioritize to-dos, per a new article in @Radiology_AI. - Curium and @LantheusNews announced an agreement worth up to $8B. - @function brought in nearly half a billion in growth funding to extend the lives of those who use the longevity health platform. theimagingwire.com/newslette…

A new report claims that radiologists fled the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs health system after the agency eliminated policies allowing remote work in 2025. While the VA has since rescinded the ban, the article in The American Prospect claims that plummeting morale continues to plague the health system’s radiologists. theimagingwire.com/2026/08/0…

Policies eliminating remote work in 2025 caused a mass exodus from the VA among radiologists. What does this mean for the health of U.S. veterans? More on that in Issue #822 of TIW, plus… ✅ Candelis, Inc. received FDA clearance for its ImageGrid StreamVue viewer software. 🩻 How can clinicians help patients with “scanxiety”? 💡DeepHealth’s newest algorithm, DeepHealth Breast Ultrasound, received FDA clearance for analyzing breast ultrasound exams. theimagingwire.com/newslette…

Some promising updates arrived this week in the campaign to reduce CT radiation dose. A new nationwide survey in Radiology found that radiation dose from CT scans has fallen markedly over the past decade in the U.S. theimagingwire.com/newslette…

Good news to close out the week: The radiation dose of CT scans is falling. New data from Radiology showed that overall radiation dose fell by upwards of 20% over the past decade. What lessons can be learned from CT’s radiation cuts? More on that in Issue #821 of TIW, plus… 🗞️ Only 50% of help-wanted ads for radiologists included salary data – who are the worst offenders? 📉 Medicare conversion factor cuts aren’t just affecting physician reimbursement – they’re also limiting patient access. 💰 Brain MRI developer @wellumio closed a $9.8M pre-Series A funding round. theimagingwire.com/newslette…

While @WHO's Global Status Report on Cancer 2026 revealed progress is being made, it isn’t being made equally.

MRI is #radiology’s most powerful imaging modality, but it also has the most challenging workflow due to its complexity. We talked to Holly Schaal of @GEHealthCare about new technologies the company developed to make #MRI workflow more efficient. Check it out at youtu.be/_gckC9HLx6I.

Could AI be what closes the mammography gap between generalists and specialists? More on that in Issue #820 of TIW, plus… ❌ The FDA refuses to classify scanner projectile accidents as “malfunctions,” preferring to stick with the term “use error.” 🌎 Gaps in the global cancer burden are widening, per @WHO's new report. 💰 Radiology AI platform company @CARPLai raised $10M in a Series A funding round. theimagingwire.com/newslette…

A @JAMANetworkOpen study dives into the lung cancer mystery in non-smokers.

Should we screen for lung cancer in patients who don’t smoke? A new @JAMANetworkOpen study looked under the hood of lung cancer in South Korea and found that current screening standards would have missed nearly two-thirds of lung cancer patients. Plus… ⚠️ CCTA scans found a high rate of atherosclerosis in younger adults – what does that mean for their long-term health? 📣 @Rad_Partners bolstered the executive lineup of its RP Clinical Services division by naming Matt Peterson as president. theimagingwire.com/newslette…
