Dear AuntMinnie Member,
Immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) commonly develops in patients after receiving chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy. Fortunately, an AI algorithm shows potential to yield objective neuroimaging diagnostic criteria for this significant complication, according to the first article we’re featuring in this issue of the AI Insider.
In case you missed it, other recent AI-related content featured a video interview with Florence Doo, MD, of the University of Maryland on how AI is affecting radiology and an article on potential liability concerns associated with radiology AI.
Consultant Michael J. Cannavo, also known as the PACSman, discussed the possibility of radiology AI being free in the latest installment of his The PACSman Pontificates series. He also recapped his experience after remotely attending SIIM 2025.
Speaking of SIIM 2025, a video interview with Nabile Safdar, MD, described best practices for the integration of AI into radiology training. Also, a deep-learning algorithm delivered promising results for analyzing lumbar spine MRI exams. Furthermore, a study highlighted the potential of AI-created video radiology reports to enhance patient engagement.
AI can also identify vertebral compression fractures, according to another study presented at SIIM 2025. Plus, you won’t want to miss a video interview with Howard Chen, MD, of the Cleveland Clinic on AI implementation and development trends, as well as another interview on the sustainability of radiology AI technology.
The keynote address at SIIM 2025 stressed the importance of politics for the future development of AI. Foundation models show promise in radiology, but specific strategies are needed, according to a presentation at the SIIM-ACR Data Science Summit.
An explainable MRI AI algorithm was recently reported to effectively diagnose hepatocellular carcinoma. Researchers have also concluded that a deep-learning algorithm may be helpful for diagnosing pulmonary diseases on routine chest x-rays.
