Ocular Capillary Ischemia Offers Early Warning of Diabetic Eye Disease Progression
An AI-driven automated optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) review system predicted progression of diabetic macular ischemia (DMI) with greater than 90% accuracy, a retrospective cohort study showed. DMI of the superficial capillary plexus at baseline more than doubled the risk of progression of diabetic retinopathy (DR), and DMI of the deep capillary plexus more than […]
LDCT Screening Linked to Lower Risk of Brain Mets in Lung Cancer
Patients with primary lung cancer detected with low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) screening have a lower risk of developing brain metastases than patients whose cancer was detected through other methods, researchers found. After adjusting for age at diagnosis, cancer stage, histology, and smoking status, patients whose lung cancer was detected with LDCT screening had a significantly […]
