Introduction: Sjögren's syndrome (SS) presents complex diagnostic challenges due to its multi-organ involvement, often leading to misdiagnosis, which can result in unnecessary treatments, elevated healthcare costs, and significant impacts on patient quality of life. Accurate diagnosis is therefore critical, utilising ACR/EULAR criteria that include both labial minor salivary gland (LMSG) biopsy and anti-SSA antibodies.
Methods: This retrospective study analysed medical records of 87 adults suspected of primary SS, who underwent both anti-SSA serology and LMSG biopsy.

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performance for medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) based on the 2017 Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System by the American College of Radiology (ACR TI-RADS) guideline, and the ability to recommend fine needle aspiration (FNA) for MTC.
Methods: Fifty-six MTCs were included, and 168 benign thyroid nodules (BTNs) and 168 papillary thyroid nodules (PTCs) were matched according to age. Ultrasound (US) features were reviewed according to ACR TI-RADS.

Introduction: Breast cancer is a significant worldwide health issue, particularly in Jordan, where early detection via mammography is essential for effective disease management. Despite the little radiation risk associated with mammography, it is crucial to monitor radiation exposure to guarantee patient safety. This study intends to assess skin entrance exposure and compute the Mean Glandular Dose (MGD) in mammography units to determine adherence to established criteria and pinpoint areas for enhancement.

The objective of this study is to implement an actionable incidental findings (AIFs) communication workflow integrated into the electronic health record (EHR) using dictation macros to improve the quality of radiology reports and facilitate delivery of findings to clinicians. The workflow was implemented across an academic multi-hospital health system and used by over 100 radiologists from 12 divisions. Standardized macros were created for different organ systems including the thyroid, lungs, liver, pancreas, spleen, kidney, female reproductive, and others, designed based on the ACR Novel Quality Measure Set.
