If a clinician you care about counts on AI to help make medical decisions, remind them: Tort law principles hold that doing so means risking liability should a patient sue over harm done.
Cerebral has admitted to improperly sharing data with social media platforms for the purpose of targeted advertising. The company also made it difficult to cancel the service, costing its members millions.
Two advanced algorithms—one for CAC scores and another for segmenting cardiac chamber volumes—outperformed radiologists when assessing low-dose chest CT scans.
High out-of-pocket costs are a growing problem in healthcare, often creating stress and confusion for patients. A new analysis in Circulation: Cardiovascular Quality and Outcomes examined one way that physicians can help.
Amgen’s newly created subsidiary, Pillartree Limited, will acquire Horizon Therapeutics for $116.50 per share in cash. That’s a premium of 19.7% above the closing price of $97.29 on Dec. 9, 2022.
With the midterms in the rearview, the lameduck Congress is focused on a handful of healthcare priorities heading into 2023, including mental health and implementing recent Medicare price negotiations afforded in the Inflation Reduction Act.

![Advanced artificial intelligence (AI) models can evaluate cardiovascular risk in routine chest CT scans without contrast, according to new research published in Nature Communications.[1] In fact, the authors noted, the AI approach may be more effective at identifying issues than relying on guidance from radiologists.
