Week in Review: MRI in paradise — aka the ISMRM meeting | Cancer incidence increases in women

Dear AuntMinnie Member,

All week, AuntMinnie.com editors covered the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (ISMRM) meeting, which was held in beautiful Honolulu, Hawaii. So it’s no surprise that our most-clicked article came from the gathering, describing research about how 4D MRI reveals heart impairments in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Click here to read more.

In second and third place, ISMRM presenters discussed how switching between full and short breast MRI protocols reduces recalls and how synthetic MR images appear to be feasible for breast cancer screening.

Fourth on the list? An article on results from a National Cancer Institute (NCI) study regarding the rise in cancer incidence among younger people and women. Our fifth most-clicked story this week returned to the ISMRM proceedings, with coverage of research that showed how MR spectroscopy captures neurochemistry changes in football players who sustain head impacts.

Check out the full list of top stories for the week below, including a report on large language model security threats and more ISMRM content: videos with Katja Pinker, MD, on the benefits of breast MRI; Dania Daye, MD, on the “last mile” to clinical AI deployment; Shintaro Ichikawa, PhD, on MRI liver biomarkers; and Kate Hanneman, MD, on MRI equipment and sustainability.
