"The results from this study are both disturbing and not very surprising to me. This raises concerns not only for research integrity, but also for clinical workflows, insurance claims and legal contexts where imaging evidence is used."

United States President Donald Trump has dismissed concerns about his health in a new interview with The Wall Street Journal, despite scrutiny of his sometimes-drowsy appearance and the patches of makeup that have recently appeared on his hand. The interview appeared in Thursday's edition of the newspaper. In its pages, the Wall Street Journal reporters confronted Trump with questions about his age, fitness and statements about his recent health treatments.

Lying on your back in a big hospital scanner, as still as you can, with your arms above your head for 45 minutes. It doesn't sound much fun. That's what patients at Royal Brompton Hospital in London had to do during certain lung scans, until the hospital installed a new device last year that cut these examinations down to just 15 minutes.

Medical device funding is hitting levels we haven't seen since 2021, with investors pouring billions into diagnostics and imaging companies. While innovation has raced ahead, a fundamental problem still hasn't changed: Critical medical hardware like MRI machines cost millions of dollars and is limited to large hospitals. So how do you take one of the most expensive, hospital-bound technologies and make it available anywhere?

The completion of the decade-long imaging project means qualifying researchers will have access to 1bn de-identified images alongside medical histories and genetic data.

A new technology that uses clinical MRI machines to image metabolic activity in the brain could give researchers and clinicians unique insight into brain function and disease.

"We sent out someone to swap the monitor," Neville told On Call. A days later, the problem recurred, so Neville's company despatched another new display."
