Mammography screening supported by artificial intelligence (AI) is a safe alternative to today’s conventional double reading by radiologists and can reduce heavy workloads for doctors. This has now been shown in an interim analysis of a prospective, randomised controlled trial, which addressed the clinical safety of using AI in mammography screening. The trial, led by researchers from Lund Univers

In patients with symptoms such as irregular heartbeats, dizziness, or fainting, or in individuals that physicians suspect may have atrial fibrillation, many days of ECGs may be required for diagnosis – “long-term ECG recordings”. These recordings must then undergo a time-consuming and human resource-intensive review to identify heart rhythm abnormalities. In a large international study, researcher

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Eftersom de båda vanligaste diabetestyperna, typ 1 och typ 2, blir vanligare ökar också antalet individer som har båda sjukdomarna samtidigt. Mycket kort kan dubbel diabetes definieras som när en typ 1:a utvecklar insulinresistens, ofta på grund av övervikt. Så sammanfattas tillståndet bakom begreppet dubbel diabete

Hur kan fåglar undvika att krocka när de flyger i täta lövverk och i andra trånga miljöer med många hinder? Och vad innebär det för fåglarna att flyga i sådana komplexa miljöer? De frågorna funderade Per Henningsson vid Lunds universitet på innan han gjorde slag i saken och tog hjälp av familjens egen tama undulat för att ta reda på svaren. Nu publiceras studien i Royal Society Open Science. Pande
