How to Follow the Latest News and Current Issue Content on Applied Radiology

Updated

Applied Radiology organizes its timely content into three on-site sections: Latest news, Featured Content, and Current issue. To keep up with recent radiology developments, start on the homepage and browse these sections in order—Latest news for breaking industry and regulatory items, Featured Content for highlighted articles, and Current issue for the newest edition's lineup. This works for anyone tracking industry announcements, device clearances, and clinical imaging news without needing a subscription to read the headlines.

What each section gives you

Section What it contains Best used for
Latest news Short news items on industry developments, regulatory clearances, and new studies Quick scanning of what changed recently
Featured Content Highlighted articles and editor-selected items Finding substantive reads beyond headlines
Current issue The contents of the newest issue Seeing the full lineup of the latest edition

The homepage excerpt shows the kind of items that appear under Latest news, including:

  • Industry News — e.g., Bracco's planned $230 million U.S. manufacturing investment; RadNet's acquisition of ONRAD
  • Regulatory clearances — e.g., Koning Vera Breast CT approval in Canada; FDA clearance for the BoneEnhance ultrasound software module; Coreline Soft's 13th FDA 510(k) clearance for AVIEW Aorta Metrics
  • Clinical and research updates — e.g., photon-counting CTA for coronary artery stenosis; PSMA PET/CT biopsy for prostate cancer detection; gadopiclenol in dynamic contrast-enhanced MR lymphangiography
  • Modality-tagged items — news is labeled by area such as MRI, CT, Ultrasound, PET, Thoracic Imaging, and Theranostics

Step-by-step: tracking developments

  1. Open the homepage and locate the Latest news column. Scan the headlines and their category tags (Industry News, Medical Imaging, CT, MRI, etc.).
  2. Filter by your interest using the tags. If you work in CT, for example, look for items tagged CT or Thoracic Imaging rather than reading every entry.
  3. Move to Featured Content for longer or editor-highlighted pieces when a headline needs more depth than a news brief provides.
  4. Check Current issue to see what the newest edition covers, including recurring features such as the "Spectral CT Today" sponsored content and the Modern Radiology eBook.
  5. Verify the expected result: you should be able to name the most recent clearance or industry announcement in your modality and point to the section where you found it.

Common sticking points

  • Headlines repeat across sections. The same news items can appear more than once on the page (for example, the European Radiology journal launch and the HOPPR reporting model appear in multiple listings). Treat duplicates as the same item, not new developments.
  • News briefs are short. For clinical detail, follow the item into Featured Content or the current issue rather than relying on the headline alone.
  • Sponsored and editorial content are mixed. Items like "Spectral CT Today" are sponsored; note the label when weighing how to cite something.
  • Subscription prompts appear on the site. The site references "subscribe," but the available page information does not specify what a subscription includes or costs—check the subscribe link directly if you need full-text access rather than assuming everything is open.

A practical routine

For a working radiologist or imaging administrator, a five-minute weekly pass works well: scan Latest news for clearances and industry moves, open one or two Featured Content pieces in your modality, and check the Current issue table of contents for anything relevant to practice or purchasing decisions. This keeps you current without reading every item, and the modality tags let you skip areas outside your scope.
