ACS: Fewer Black men are dying from cancer
Black men in the U.S. between the ages of 40 and 59 experienced a 65% to 67% decline in cancer mortality between 1999 and 2022, according to 2025 ACS statistics.

Are white-matter hyperintensities found on MRI biomarkers for TBI?
By Kate Madden Yee
White-matter hyperintensities found on high-resolution FLAIR images on 3-tesla MRI aren't necessarily biomarkers for mild traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Epicardial adipose tissue on LDCT tied to cardiovascular mortality risk
By Amerigo Allegretto

7-minute shoulder MRI scans are feasible
By Will Morton
A commercially available deep-learning (DL) algorithm can enable high quality seven-minute shoulder MRI exams.

Images in an 18-year-old man with recurrent dislocations of the right shoulder. (A, B) Unenhanced coronal, (C) axial, and (D, E) sagittal deep learning super-resolution threefold parallel imaging -- accelerated turbo spin-echo MRI scans were obtained at 3-tesla field strength. (A) Coronal T2-weighted fat-suppressed (FS) and (B) coronal proton density (PD)-weighted MRI scans show a nondisplaced superior labral tear (arrows). (C) Axial proton density-weighted fat-suppressed, (D) sagittal T2-weighted fat-suppressed, and (E) sagittal T1-weighted MRI scans show continuation into a nondisplaced anteroinferior labral tear (arrows). All seven readers correctly diagnosed the arthroscopy-validated findings. (F) An arthroscopic photograph shows the anteroinferior labral tear (arrow). Image and caption courtesy of the RSNA.

Ga-68 FZ-NR-1 PET/CT images and F-18 FDG PET/CT and PET/MRI images in representative nectin-4-positive TNBC patients. (A) PET/CT images and nectin-4 immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining of patient 1. Maximum-intensity projection (MIP) images and axial and coronal PET/CT images of Ga-68 FZ-NR-1 and F-18 FDG both showed high uptake in lung metastases (arrow). (B) PET/CT images and nectin-4 IHC staining of patient 2. MIP images and axial and coronal PET/CT images of Ga-68 FZ-NR-1 showed high uptake in recurrence of right breast cancer after surgery (arrow), and those of F-18 FDG PET/MRI showed high uptake.
