In a tense situation in Pakistan, four security officers were killed when Imran Khan’s supporters broke through barricades in the capital, Islamabad. The protesters, who want Khan’s release from jail and a change in the government due to alleged election fraud, clashed with law enforcement. The inte
Ever wondered what it would be like to taste your favorite food in a virtual world? Scientists have been working on just that, creating tiny, portable devices that let you experience different tastes in virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR). These devices, shaped like
Imran Khan, Pakistan's former prime minister, has been in jail for over a year. His supporters planned a big march to Islamabad to demand his release and changes to the judiciary. The government wasn't happy about this. They blocked highways, cut off internet, and sent thousands of police and soldie
The medial coracoclavicular ligament, also known as Caldani's ligament, has been studied in detail anatomically. Yet, there's scarcely any mention of its imaging identification. So, researchers developed a unique MRI technique to spot this ligament. They scanned seven volunteers without known should
Did you know that the tiny blood vessels in your brain play a big role in brain health? Scientists are trying to understand how these vessels, especially the deep medullary veins, are linked to brain injuries. In this study, researchers looked at people who had recently had a small brain injury call
You may be surprised to know that where you live can affect how your body deals with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Scientists in Spain recently looked into how climate influences MS activity in patients from the Mediterranean coast. They wanted to see if there's any pattern in the disease's activity thro
Ever wished we could tell someone's age just by looking at their brain scan? Scientists often use T1-weighted structural MRI to do this. But a new study mixed things up by combining structural MRI and diffusion MRI. They created a smart model that could see both the big brain features and tiny detai
Imagine a radiologist's day made easier by a smart assistant. Enter secure institutional large language models (LLMs). These advanced tools are designed to take the boredom out of non-interpretative tasks, like filling out MRI spine request forms. Gone are the days when radiologists had to spend pre
You might not think much about the shape of your knee, but it turns out it could play a big role in how well your ACL graft heals after surgery. A study found that when the back of your shinbone (called the tibia) slopes more, it's linked to higher signal intensity on MRI scans two years after ACL r
Everyone's talking about how AI can help in medicine, and this study takes a look at whether big language models like ChatGPT and Bard/Gemini are ready to help with prostate cancer detection. Specifically, they checked if these AI models could classify prostate multiparametric MRI text reports into
