Association of Interventional Radiologist Clinical Evaluation and Management Services and Procedural Complexity
Clinical evaluation and management (E&M) services performed by interventional radiologists may be undervalued by radiology practices compared with higher work relative value unit (wRVU) interventional radiology (IR) procedural services. The aim of this study was to assess whether higher E&M provision is associated with higher IR procedural complexity and the contribution of nonphysician practitioners (NPPs) in delivering IR services.

Management of Incidentally Discovered Pineal Cyst on CT and MRI: Recommendations from the ACR Incidental Findings Committee
The ACR Incidental Findings Committee presents recommendations for managing incidental pineal cysts on CT of the head or MRI of the brain. The Pineal Cyst Subcommittee is composed of neuroradiologists and a neurosurgeon who developed the algorithms presented. These recommendations represent a combination of current published evidence as well as expert experience and opinion and were finalized by a formal consensus-building process. The recommendations address commonly encountered incidental find…

Developing Algorithm-Based Recommendations in the ACR: Defining a New Process
We summarize a new process for developing algorithm-based recommendations for the ACR. This process is currently applied to the ACR’s incidental findings recommendations, and other committees providing evidence-based recommendations may elect to adopt these processes in the future. The prior process relied upon informal consensus and was versatile but more limited in scalability and generalizability. Most importantly, the absence of a formal, evidence-driven process prevented incidental findings…

Use of Large Language Models on Radiology Reports: A Scoping Review
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly being explored for a wide range of applications in radiology, offering the potential to enhance clinical workflows, improve diagnostic accuracy, and support patient communication. In this scoping review the authors examine the current and emerging uses of LLMs on radiology text, focusing on areas such as report generation, structured data extraction, workflow optimization, and clinical decision support. A literature search was conducted on PubMed and…
