CURL-AID: Automated Echocardiographic Motion Analysis for Quantitative Assessment of Posterior Systolic Curling

Objective Posterior systolic curling (PSC) is a morphofunctional abnormality of the posterior mitral annulus associated with malignant ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Current diagnosis is qualitative and operator-dependent, limiting reproducibility, objectivity and standardization. This study introduces CURL-AID (Curling Ultrasound-based Recognition and Labeling-Automated Intelligence-driven Diagnosis), a fully automated echocardiographic framework for PSC detection through quantitative analysi…

Identifying the presence of disc herniations in lumbar spine MRI using Gemini 3.1 Pro

Purpose Lumbar disc herniation is associated with substantial morbidity, including low back pain, radicular leg pain (sciatica), sensory disturbance, and motor deficit. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is central to confirming the diagnosis in symptomatic patients and to planning surgical or interventional management. Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) raise the possibility of automating aspects of image interpretation to improve consistency and reduce radiologist workload. This study evaluates a ge…

Advances in AI's Future in Toxicology: Integrating Computational Prediction and Clinical Translation Through Explainable Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are increasingly used in toxicological risk assessment to predict chemical toxicity, identify hazardous compounds, and support regulatory decision-making. However, the widespread adoption of these models is limited by their "black-box" nature, which reduces interpretability, transparency, and regulatory confidence. Explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) has emerged as a promising approach to address these challenges by revealing how input features, including c…

Machine learning force field development and basic physical property studies for molten salt reactor fuel salt LiF-BeF<sub>2</sub>-UF<sub>4</sub>

As one of the most promising technological pathways for Generation IV advanced reactors, molten salt reactors (MSRs) rely on the fuel salt LiF-BeF 2 -UF 4 (FLiBeU), whose microstructural characteristics and fundamental physical properties determine the reactor's thermal-hydraulic behavior and safe operating limits. In response to the experimental challenges posed by the high temperature and high radioactivity of this molten salt system, this study adopts the deep potential molecular dynamics (DPMD) method combin…

Additional sectioning and AI-assisted diagnosis reveal underdiagnosis of serous (pre)malignancies in fallopian tube specimen from BRCA1/2 carriers

Aim Germline BRCA1/2 pathogenic variant carriers are at increased risk for high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) and are therefore advised to have a risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy (RRSO) around the age of 40. A risk of 0.9% to develop peritoneal HGSC (pHGSC) remains, which increases up to 27.5% when serous tubal intraepithelial carcinoma (STIC) is detected at RRSO. The relationship between the detection of STIC and the occurrence of pHGSC is still poorly understood. Here, we investigated the role of tissue sam…

Building Machine Learning Models Based on Oxidative Stress Index Score to Predict Survival of Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer Receiving Different Neoadjuvant Therapy Patterns

Background Liver enzyme biomarkers are known to contribute to the onset and progression of colorectal cancer. Objective To develop a novel oxidative stress index score integrating γ-glutamyl transferase and total bilirubin, evaluate its prognostic value in locally advanced rectal cancer patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy, and construct and validate machine learning-based survival prediction models incorporating oxidative stress index score. Design A novel liver enzyme indicator - oxidative stress index score…

Effect of Deep Learning Training Policy on Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Carbon Efficiency for Chest Radiograph Classification

Purpose Environmental sustainability is an emerging priority in radiology, yet the impact of deep learning training policies on greenhouse gas emissions remains poorly characterized. This study quantified the effect of training policy on carbon dioxide equivalent (CO 2 eq) emissions and model performance for chest radiograph classification. Methods Anteroposterior chest radiographs (128 907 training, 24 570 validation, 8282 test) were used to train 3 ImageNet-pretrained convolutional neural networks (ResNet-50,…

Artificial Intelligence Can Direct Patients Toward a Complaint-specific Musculoskeletal Provider

Introduction Patients with musculoskeletal complaints often search online to identify an appropriate healthcare provider. With the increasing availability of large language models (LLMs), these artificial intelligence (AI) tools can direct patients to providers. This study evaluated the ability of LLMs to recommend appropriate providers based on representative patient musculoskeletal queries. Methods Three LLMs (ChatGPT, DeepSeek, and Gemini) were prompted with standardized musculoskeletal queries for two US cit…

The CODEX action incubator: a consensus-driven approach to identify and implement diagnostic excellence measures in the context of artificial intelligence

Diagnostic errors are a substantial source of patient harm. As artificial intelligence (AI) integrates into clinical workflows, opportunities are emerging to assess their impacts on diagnostic excellence (DxEx). The Coordinating Center for Diagnostic Excellence (CODEX) at the University of California San Francisco established the Action Incubator to translate research advances in DxEx into tangible strategies for improving diagnosis. The September 2025 in-person inaugural Action Incubator convened 30 multidiscip…
