Thanks @AdamKassamMD for your leadership during this harrowing time and for the kind mention! 🙏 @westernurad

[Dr. Adam Kassam @AdamKassamMD]

The pandemic has created a backlog of screening, procedures and surgeries that patients need.

Docs like @OuzounianMD, @RohitKumarRKV, @IanYMChan, @MakhijaMD work tirelessly to deliver the care patients need.

EXCITED TO SHARE! We show that our synthetic imaging data supports transfer learning for centres without enough local data to build ML models independently

We see more and more lateral dural tear #CSFleaks with small epidural fluid missed because the correct MRI sequences were not obtained. 3DT2FS really shines in this context. Sometimes the 🔑 isn't new technology, but re-understanding how to look at existing data.

What is the diagnostic yield of MRI in adult emergency patients with dizziness or vertigo?

While MRI is efficient for detecting central causes of dizziness, its yield is low in cases of isolated dizziness without neurological signs. 👇 https://t.co/170qBbHrq7

⭐️ The carotid body can be normally seen on CTA of the neck as an ovoid avidly enhancing focus at the inferomedial aspect of the carotid bifurcation

💡 Normal range is ~1-4mm, do not mistake this for pathology (dissection, web, pseudoaneurysm, etc.)

💡 When >6 mm, a small carotid paraganglioma should be suspected and further evaluated

China's Bytedance just dropped the most advanced video generation model in the world.

Seedance 2.0 has:
— native audio gen (lipsynced speech + music)
— drastic step up from Veo 3.1 / Sora 2 in quality
— supports multimodal input
— 2k resolution

Goes beyond cinematic video, and can do product demos as well. And it's really hard to tell it's AI.

[Spinal CSF Leak Canada Charitable Organization @SpinalCSFCanada]

A recent patient story from @Sunnybrook Health Sciences Center highlights how serious #spinalCSFleak can be and shows the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in the treatment of this condition.

Our @TheJNS paper is out: In perimesencephalic SAH, high-res CBCT frequently identifies a basilar perforator pseudoaneurysm supporting an arterial etiology until proven otherwise. Conservative management was associated with excellent outcomes. https://t.co/eL5vELrIKA

The largest randomized trial of medical A.I.
—Over 100,000 women in Sweden
—radiologist + AI vs 2 radiologists, in follow-up
—AI added led to 29% more cancer detected, 44% reduced workload, and
—Less cancer dx in subsequent 2 years, and, when found, less aggressive

CTA is over-utilized & under-utilized in many EDs.

Can miss high-risk lesions in high-risk clinical events without it.

But there is a cost to it when not indicated: extra radiation, potential contrast allergy, negative impact on ED/radiology workflow, resource intensive etc

[Eric Topol @EricTopol]

Total body MRI scans generate lots of false positive results. Then there's the false negatives, too. https://t.co/7NITyu2sqM @PeterWhoriskey

[Dhairya A. Lakhani, MD @dhairyalakhani]

Multinodular & vacuolating neuronal tumor (MVNT) is a rare, benign entity often found incidentally, w/ characteristic MR findings: Subcortical, FLAIR-hyperintense, nonenhancing nodules. In our cohort, most did well w/ conservative management.

@MicieliA_MD Thanks for your excellent patient care! Honoured to read one of your last stroke MRIs here (and a positive one).

Waymo is the exemplar of superhuman AI performance to date. "It’s time to stop treating this like a tech moonshot and start treating it like a public health intervention."
