"These findings suggest that while the predictive potential is high, the community must shift focus from quantity to quality, prioritizing external validation and data sharing, to achieve clinical translation." - Amit Gupta buff.ly/YLf5rbH (Armando Ugo Cavallo et al.)

Despite this performance, the average methodological quality was only 54.5% (measured by the METRICS score), with significant heterogeneity and evidence of publication bias. Worth a read if you are interested in the realistic status of AI in cardiovascular imaging. 🫀📉

The last Radvent of this 2025. Wish you happy Holidays from the @insightsimaging.bsky.social social media team 🎄❄️☃️ @gennarodanna.bsky.social #RadSky #MedSky #Advent #Radiology

🎄✨ Radvent Day 23 — The “Contrast Conundrum” for Kidney Patients ✨🎄 Behind today’s advent door: intravenous iodinated contrast media (ICM) in patients with kidney disease - a classic radiology balancing act! Guidelines exist, but they vary more than holiday cookie recipes. 🍪

🎅 Radvent Day 22! 🎅 Hereditary multiple exostoses: not just bumps on the bones. This educational review breaks down imaging appearances, complications and when to suspect malignant change - Gennaro D'Anna link.springer.com/article/10.1... (Alvaro Rueda-de-Eusebio et al.)

🎄✨ Advent Day 21 — Peeking into Tiny Winter Minds ✨🎄 Today’s advent door opens on cranial ultrasound (CUS) in term neonates and infants - the first line for spotting brain surprises in our tiniest patients. - Roberto Cannella link.springer.com/article/10.1... (Caoilfhionn Ní Leidhin et al.)

☃️ Radvent Day 20 ☃️ Müllerian anomalies demystified! This review revisits imaging and classification of congenital reproductive tract anomalies; essential reading for MRI-focused diagnosis and precise reporting. Gennaro D'Anna link.springer.com/article/10.1... (Rashmi Dixit et al.)

🎄✨ Advent Day 19 — Spotlight on the Pregnant Liver ✨🎄

🎄 Radvent Day 18!🎄 The EU AI Act is coming, and radiology must be ready. In this paper, the ESR lays out key recommendations to help radiology teams, policymakers & healthcare pros implement safe, transparent, and patient-centred AI in imaging. - Gennaro D'Anna

🎄✨ Advent Day 17 — Don’t Be Fooled by MRI “Holiday Glitter”! ✨🎄 Behind today’s advent door: endometriosis on MRI - a tricky guest in the pelvis that loves to disguise itself! While MRI is the gold standard for spotting these lesions, about 10% of findings are false positives. - Roberto Cannella

🎁 Radvent Day 16! 🎁 Percutaneous cryoablation isn’t just for liver or kidney tumors anymore: it’s proving to be a precise, minimally invasive game-changer for soft tissue tumors too.

🎄✨ Advent Day — Not All Tinsel Is the Same: Conus vs. Cauda Edition ✨🎄

Effective communication isn’t soft skill fluff, it’s essential in imaging. This ESR & EFRS joint statement shows how clear, compassionate dialogue helps radiographers meet patient expectations, reduce anxiety, and boost care quality throughout the imaging journey. - Gennaro D'Anna

🎁 Radvent Day 13! 🎁 Too many head CTs in the ER lack quality info and real clinical justification.

🎅 Radvent Day 12! 🎅 Spectral CT is spreading… but not fast enough. A global snapshot shows big gaps in training, QA/QC, and daily clinical use - we need better education and standardized workflows to unlock its full potential. - Gennaro D'Anna

🎄✨ Radvent Day 11! — Don’t Be Fooled by Liver “Look-Alikes”! ✨🎄 Behind today’s advent door: liver hemangiomas—the most common solid liver lesion and the “classics” of liver imaging. They usually show their true colors on scans, making biopsies unnecessary. 🎁 - Roberto Cannella

❄️ Radvent Day 10! ❄️ Not all conus & cauda equina lesions are what they seem. A great overview of neoplastic, infectious, traumatic, vascular and inflammatory causes and why contrast-enhanced MRI is key for sorting them out. A must-read for anyone dealing with spine imaging! - Gennaro D'Anna

🎄 Advent Day 9 — Understanding Acute Abdominal Pain in the Elderly ❄️ "Today’s advent topic highlights a frequent winter-season challenge in emergency care: abdominal disorders in older adults, which account for 10–15% of ED visits in this age group.

🎄❄️ Radvent day 7: Shining a Light on the Falciform Ligament & Ligamentum Teres Hepatis ❄️🎄 Behind today’s advent door is a pair of structures often overlooked, much like ornaments tucked away in a corner of the tree: the falciform ligament and the ligamentum teres hepatis (LTH).

🕯️ Day 6 of Radvent! 🕯️ "Ever escaped from a radiology room? 🔐🩻 This paper shows how a radiology themed escape room turned image interpretation, teamwork and clinical decision making into a high engagement learning game for >900 participants" - Gennaro D'Anna

It's the 5th day of our #InsightsintoImaging Radvent calendar! 🎄✨ Unwrapping Rim Arterial Phase Hyperenhancement ✨🎄 "Today’s advent topic reveals a “bright ring” often spotted on contrast-enhanced CT and MRI: rim arterial phase hyperenhancement (rim-APHE)." - Roberto Cannella

🎁 Day 4 of Radvent 🎁 How do referring physicians really feel about AI in radiology? This Insights into Imaging paper shows generally positive attitudes, but trust hinges on transparency, clear liability, and strong data protection. - Gennaro D'Anna link.springer.com/article/10.1... (Gotta et al)

🎄❄️ Advent Day 3 ❄️: Unwrapping the Mystery of Multiple Lung Nodules ❄️🎄 "Behind today’s advent “window” is a reminder that not all multiple lung nodules are metastasis — even when there’s a known cancer history." - Roberto Cannella link.springer.com/article/10.1... (Esra Akçiçek et al.)

🎁 Time for the second day of Radvent! 🎁 "Immunotherapy in brain metastases isn’t just ‘progression vs response’—it’s pseudoprogression, hyperprogression, dissociated and durable responses, plus toxicities that mimic relapse." - Gennaro D'Anna link.springer.com/article/10.1... (Gary Amseian et al)

New Radvent in @insightsimaging.bsky.social 🎄🎅❄️☃️

🧩 What happens when radiology meets escape rooms? Over 900 participants joined radiology-themed escape rooms at #ECR @myESR from 2019-2025 - tackling puzzles inspired by polytrauma, pulmonary embolism, and tumor board scenarios.

🧠 What do referring physicians really think about AI in radiology? Surveying 169 clinicians in Germany revealed:

Excellent review article discussing the falciform ligament and the ligamentum teres hepatis pathologies ⬇️ #RadSky #MedSky #Radiology #Liver

A CT-based clinical-radiomics model accurately predicts the response of adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG) to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. 🧠 Combining radiomics + clinical factors (tumor volume, cT stage, Siewert type) improved prediction vs. either alone (AUC up to 0.90).

This study highlights the importance of evaluating AI models, like Mirai, in minority populations that have traditionally been underrepresented in research.

📰 Deputy Editor Elisabetta Giannotti has expanded her area of expertise to include Breast Imaging and Sustainability, and we can announce we warmly welcome submission on these important topics! #InsightsintoImaging

This paper offers a thought-provoking reflection on our ethical responsibilities when implementing breast cancer screening technologies.

This multicenter study compared outcomes of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for local tumor progression (LTP) vs intrahepatic distant recurrence (IDR) in recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (rHCC).

Glad to present our latest scientific researchers in #AI during the EuSoMII 2025 Annual Meeting!

This educational review provides a practical guide for breast radiologists in evaluating pathological nipple discharge, emphasizing the role of imaging in reducing unnecessary surgeries.

Hello! I’m Elisabetta Giannotti, Consultant Breast Radiologist at Addenbrookes Hospital, Cambridge, and Deputy Editor for Breast for Insights into Imaging. I’m excited to share a selection of recent papers I’ve chosen for their unique contributions to breast imaging.
