1/8 Check out this new @Radiology_RSNA study by Chen et al. 🧠📄✨
First-line standalone Middle Meningeal Artery Embolization (MMAE) was evaluated for hospitalized patients with non-acute subdural hematoma.

7/8 Early MMAE also had a more favorable inpatient profile 🏥✨
It was associated with:
⬇️ Respiratory complications
⬇️ Infections
⬇️ AKI
⬇️ Length of stay
⬇️ Accrued frailty
Important nuance: timing analyses were exploratory.

8/8 Takeaway 🧠💡
In selected hospitalized patients with non-acute SDH who do not require urgent decompression, first-line standalone MMAE may lead to better early discharge outcomes than CM, especially when performed early.

🧠Friedreich ataxia (FRDA) is progressive, but not all patients may follow the same neurodegenerative pattern.
This @radiology_rsna study used machine learning to identify 3 structural MRI–based biological subtypes of FRDA. 🔍✨

8/9
One especially interesting finding 🤔
The early cerebral subtype showed a weaker relationship between MRI stage and clinical duration/severity than the other subtypes.

Take-home: structural MRI + machine learning may uncover hidden FRDA heterogeneity and improve stratification for research & personalized care. 🚀🧠

Ever looked for a perfect teaching case or cases for a research project? New in @radiology_rsna: RadSearch, a semantic search model trained on >16K radiology reports, designed to retrieve relevant reports more accurately than standard methods
doi.org/10.1148/radiol.24068…
7/8
Potential applications of RadSearch include:
✅ Teaching file creation
✅ Comparison case retrieval
✅ Research dataset curation
✅ LLM-based clinical decision support

Proposed next steps:
• Integrate RadSearch into clinical workflows
• Expand to imaging modalities beyond CT/MRI
• Prospective, real-world validation
