Someday, getting an MRI exam could be as simple as having food delivered to your door—at least that is the hope of a group of experts at the University of Minnesota, who are working on a compact system said to fit in the back of a pickup truck.

PET/MRI achieves similar or superior results to PET/CT for the detection of pulmonary malignancies, according to new research.

Excluding systematic biopsy in favour of MRI-targeted biopsy in men with elevated prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels reduced the probability of detecting clinically insignificant cancers, but at the risk of missing some clinically significant cancers and delaying their diagnosis.

Powerful MRI scanners have detected white matter spots in the brain that appear to be associated with migraines, a researcher reported.

A new analysis examines how artificial intelligence in medicine can impact clinical decisions and identifies the steps that could build more trust in machine learning models from doctors and patients.

The Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF) grants went towards 11 projects including a new breakthrough test that will screen genetic mutations, a world-first genomics platform for Indigenous Australians and an international trial examining cardiac arrest interventions.

General practice doctors across Australia are raising concerns about a shortage of antibiotics, which is leaving them unable to prescribe the best medications for patients, especially in regional areas. The Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) rural health chair Michael Clements said GPs were struggling to prescribe common antibiotic medications, as well as other painkillers,...
