CHICAGO -- Many women welcome the use of AI for breast cancer screening, according to research presented December 1 at RSNA 2024. In her talk, Ottavia Battaglia, MD, from the University of Milan in Italy discussed her team’s findings showing that nearly nine out of 10 women are optimistic about the technology. However, most women in the study also believed that radiologists should still be involved in the screening process and that AI should be limited to an assistant role.

A new way to identify a discrete form of dysanapsis could help clarify disproportionate growth between size of the airway tree and lung size and improve understanding of the progression of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), according to research presented December 1 at RSNA 2024 in Chicago. For years, researchers have questioned the underpinnings dysanapsis (the mismatch between airways and lung size), as intrinsic or pathologic, according to Stephanie Marie Aguilera from the Center f

Statistics indicate that the average cost of hiring a new employee in the U.S. was $4,700 in 2022. Furthermore, most employers agree that this cost can be almost three times the position’s salary. So, if you’re hiring for a position that pays a salary of $40,000, your hiring costs may be as high as $120,000 to fill that role. Now, imagine trying to fill multiple roles in a mid-sized company — it can be quite expensive, to say the least, with no guarantee that you’ll get the right skills.

I heard a story from a colleague about a 10-year-old boy in rural Uganda named Jonathon Goodfaith who was hit by a car and broke his tibia. There was no x-ray available. The fracture was put in a cast without proper reduction, and he will have a limp for the rest of his life -- a life of pain and discomfort, all for lack of an x-ray. Over 50% of the world's population (4 billion people) have no access to imaging, a number thought to be much higher in rural areas.

About 40% of us will be diagnosed with cancer in our lifetime, and patients are getting younger. At the same time, the cost of treatment continues to rise, with employers spending 8.5% more on cancer care for each employee than they did last year. The best thing employers can do for their employees and business tomorrow is to invest in cancer detection and care today.
