Eymen Ucisik, MD presents a recently published AJR article exploring the possible risk factors for diagnostic errors by attending neuroradiologists in a single large academic center. These findings should be considered when designing workflow-related interventions to reduce imaging interpretation errors.

Wenhui Zhou, MD, PhD reviews a recent AJR article which described a unique association of unexplained acute distal pancreatitis with subsequent diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. Awareness of this imaging finding may facilitate upfront endoscopic ultrasound sampling for early detection of pancreatic cancer.

Artificial intelligence tools are already used in the practice of radiology, but there are questions about their accuracy and generalizability. Juliet Alla, MD discusses a study examining the technical adequacy of several body composition AI tools when applied to a set of heterogenous sample of outside imaging studies. Special guest Dr. Tara Retson, with multiple publications on algorithm development and the role of AI in radiology, joins us to discuss the implications for clinical practice.

Jesi Kim, MD discusses an important article that demonstrates how the improved temporal resolution of dual-source CT scanners can allow coronary CTAs to be performed without strict heartrate control while improving image quality. This finding and discussion is of interest because not administering an oral beta blocker during a coronary CTA can decreasing CT completion time and accelerate downstream management.
