This year at #RSNA2025 our team at NYU Langone Health Department of Radiology Center for Advanced Imaging Innovation & Research is presenting on our breast multimodal model (MG/US/MRI) with external validation, and its use in high-risk women for cancer detection and long-term risk prediction. We also have a presentation on our exciting new
