Week in Review: Unread ultrasound scans | Remote radiology boards | Radiology AI's 'bad hand'

Dear AuntMinnie Member,

It's been another interesting news week in radiology, and our coverage of not only clinical advances in the field but also practice concerns -- even controversy -- produced some of the most-read articles on AuntMinnie.com.

At the head of the list was a story on a New Zealand midwife's failure to read ultrasound scans and the devastating consequences this omission had for a woman in her 25th week of pregnancy.

Also of interest to readers this week was our coverage of why remote radiology board exams will likely continue, even as the COVID-19 pandemic wanes, as well as contributing writer Michael Cannavo's exploration of whether radiology has a "bad hand" when it comes to artificial intelligence (AI).

Other popular features included an investigation into what factors affect the accuracy of radiologists' mammography interpretations and a story on the American College of Radiology's updated breast cancer screening guidance, which now includes particular language regarding minority and LGBTQ women.

Finally, readers gravitated to studies about AI, including one from our CT Community about how a deep-learning algorithm boosts CT's ability to identify kidney stones and another from our Digital X-ray Community about AI's usefulness for predicting heart disease.
