AI systems can generate rapid visual summaries directly from musculoskeletal radiology report text, with the best model producing clinically useful images in a majority of tested cases.

On September 4, 2026, a peer-reviewed study in Academic Radiology evaluated 25 musculoskeletal imaging cases where three AI systems generated visual summaries from report text alone. Two fellowship-trained MSK radiologists rated each image for anatomical accuracy and clinical usefulness, finding Gemini 3.0 Pro most consistent at 40-42% accurate and 60-65% useful, while ChatGPT and Perplexity frequently produced plausible but inaccurate images.

Digital pathology and AI tools using high-resolution whole-slide images are expanding diagnostic capacity for liver cancer, liver disease, and transplantation, with growing clinical access that may help address laboratory challenges.

A September 2026 review in The Lancet Digital Health summarizes how digital pathology, image analysis, and AI, including deep learning on high-resolution whole-slide images, are being applied to liver disease, liver cancer diagnosis, and transplantation assessment. The authors describe expanding use from long-standing research applications to increasing clinical practice access.

Elastic Net model distinguished three depressive symptom trajectories in older adults with chronic conditions and was deployed as an interactive web-based risk calculator for individualized risk profiling.

Using longitudinal data from 5492 older Chinese adults with chronic conditions in CHARLS, researchers identified three depressive symptom trajectories and compared 10 machine learning models, selecting 10 core predictors via bootstrap RFE and evaluating with stratified split and SHAP interpretability.

Interpretable machine learning combining admission D-dimer and total bleeding volume improved prediction of 12-month functional outcome after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, with XGBoost achieving AUC 0.904 and combined D-dimer+TBV+Hunt-Hess outperforming single markers, to inform early risk stratification.

Researchers analyzed 473 patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage from the retrospective PROSAH-MPC cohort to test whether admission D-dimer levels and total bleeding volume together predict long-term function. They stratified patients by D-dimer quartiles, ran multivariable logistic regression for 12-month modified Rankin Scale outcomes, selected features with Boruta, and built seven machine learning models interpreted with SHAP.

The original 2019 PROBAST tool had become outdated given rapid progress in prediction modelling methodology and AI including machine learning.

Published March 24 2025 in the BMJ, this methods article describes PROBAST+AI, an updated assessment tool for prediction models built with regression or artificial intelligence methods. It splits assessment into model development and model evaluation, each organized around participants and data sources, predictors, outcome, and analysis domains.

Current automated and human moderation systems on Roblox fail to prevent young users' exposure to inappropriate content, cyberbullying, and predatory behavior.

Published 25 April 2025, this peer-reviewed case study examines Roblox as a child-focused Metaverse platform, analyzing why automated and human moderation struggles with real-time interactions and massive volumes of user-generated content and documenting failures that left young users exposed to inappropriate content and predatory risks.
