Endoscopic ultrasound for pancreatic cystic lesions: a narrative review.

BMJ open gastroenterology
The incidence of incidental pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs) has risen in recent years, largely due to advances in and increased use of imaging techniques. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) has become a crucial tool for evaluating and characterising PCLs, ...

Incidental Finding of Coronary and Non-Coronary Artery Calcium: What Do Clinicians Need To Know?

Current atherosclerosis reports
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This review summarizes the role of incidentally and non-incidentally discovered coronary artery calcification (CAC) and the evolving role of non-coronary artery calcification in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk a...

[Incidental pulmonary nodules on CT imaging: what to do?].

Nederlands tijdschrift voor geneeskunde
Incidental pulmonary nodules are very frequently found on CT imaging and may represent (early stage) lung cancers without any signs or symptoms. These incidental findings can be solid lesions or ground glass lesions that may be solitary or multiple. ...

Performance assessment of an artificial intelligence algorithm for opportunistic screening of abdominal aortic aneurysms.

Clinical imaging
PURPOSE: Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a common incidental finding on CT imaging performed in the acute care setting. Artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms have been developed to automatically measure aortic lumen size and thus facilitate AAA ...

Leveraging Artificial Intelligence as a Safety Net for Incidentally Identified Lung Nodules at a Tertiary Center.

Journal of the American College of Surgeons
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI)-powered platforms may be used to ensure that clinically significant lung nodules receive appropriate management. We studied the impact of a commercially available AI natural language processing tool on the det...

Evaluating Adherence to Canadian Radiology Guidelines for Incidental Hepatobiliary Findings Using RAG-Enabled LLMs.

Canadian Association of Radiologists journal = Journal l'Association canadienne des radiologistes
Large language models (LLMs) have the potential to support clinical decision-making but often lack training on the latest clinical guidelines. Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) may enhance guideline adherence by dynamically integrating external i...

ScreenDx, an artificial intelligence-based algorithm for the incidental detection of pulmonary fibrosis.

The American journal of the medical sciences
BACKGROUND: Nonspecific symptoms and variability in radiographic reporting patterns contribute to a diagnostic delay of the diagnosis of pulmonary fibrosis. An attractive solution is the use of machine-learning algorithms to screen for radiographic f...

Automated identification of incidental hepatic steatosis on Emergency Department imaging using large language models.

Hepatology communications
BACKGROUND: Hepatic steatosis is a precursor to more severe liver disease, increasing morbidity and mortality risks. In the Emergency Department, routine abdominal imaging often reveals incidental hepatic steatosis that goes undiagnosed due to the ac...

Using natural language processing to identify emergency department patients with incidental lung nodules requiring follow-up.

Academic emergency medicine : official journal of the Society for Academic Emergency Medicine
OBJECTIVES: For emergency department (ED) patients, lung cancer may be detected early through incidental lung nodules (ILNs) discovered on chest CTs. However, there are significant errors in the communication and follow-up of incidental findings on E...
