MRI with contrast for Acoustic Neuroma tumors

How often does an MRI with contrast reveal something significant such as cancer, an infection, or something else for patients with an acoustic neuroma tumor? 1 in 5 patients, 1 in 10 patients, 1 in 50 patients, 1 in 100 patients, etc. I don't want to risk contaminating my body with a heavy metal unless there is a high probability that there are other important health issues associated with it. What has been your experience and what did you find in the MRI scan? Thanks!

AI for radiology - A survey

Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
