An AI-based platform for CT-derived fractional flow reserve enabled noninvasive, sex-stratified quantification of hemodynamic impact in LAD myocardial bridging, showing distinct distal flow patterns and supporting risk stratification.

A retrospective study of 300 patients with left anterior descending artery myocardial bridging and 104 controls used an AI-based platform, Shukun-FFRCT, to obtain whole-vessel and segmental FFRCT values and relate them to bridging morphology and sex.

In 55 realistic pediatric scenarios evaluated by the Skyer benchmark, ChatGPT-4.5-preview and Gemini-2.5_05-06 achieved higher triage accuracy and weighted scores than human triage experts, with acceptable consistency across repeats.

Researchers designed the Skyer benchmark to evaluate fifteen large language models on 55 realistic pediatric emergency department scenarios using a weighting system for over-triage and under-triage plus three repeat runs for consistency. By the publication date of July 11 2026, ChatGPT-4.5-preview and Gemini-2.5_05-06 had shown 77% and 74% accuracy with mean weights of 377.5 and 365 out of 550, compared to 64% and 253.5 for human experts.

In 414 prostatectomy cases, the MMAI score derived from digitized pathology images was associated with long-term biochemical recurrence and metastasis, and when combined with genomic CCP score reached the highest discrimination for metastasis.

By July 2026, investigators had tested a multimodal AI model originally validated in prostate biopsy specimens on a tissue microarray of 424 prostatectomy cases, generating scores for 414 patients. At 10 years, recurrence-free survival was 74% and metastasis-free survival 96%, and MMAI scores were associated with both endpoints in univariable models.
