"A new study examining cognitively impaired professional boxers and mixed martial arts fighters reports that the brain's waste-clearing system appears to weaken after repeated blows to the head. These findings are scheduled to be presented next week at the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA)."

Researchers found that repeated head impacts can disrupt a key system that helps the brain wash away waste. In professional fighters, this system initially seems to work harder after trauma, then declines over time. MRI scans revealed that these changes may show up years before symptoms do. The work...

"A new study reveals that impaired brain fluid flow in regions opposite the tumor predicts shorter survival in glioblastoma, an aggressive brain cancer. Using advanced MRI techniques, researchers found that dysfunction of the brain’s clearance system, known as the glymphatic system, may worsen patient outcomes. These findings suggest that monitoring whole-brain fluid dynamics could help personalize treatments and identify new targets to restore brain health."

"NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 10, 2025 — Chest pain may still be angina even when coronary angiogram testing shows the main heart arteries look clear. Using stress cardiac stress MRI testing to measure blood flow around the heart appears to improve diagnosis and patient quality of life. These finding were shared at a late-breaking science presentation today at the American Heart Association’s Scientific Sessions 2025. The meeting, Nov. 7-10, in New Orleans, is a premier global exchange of the latest scientific advancements, research and evidence-based clinical practice updates in cardiovascular science."

"Whiplash injuries, commonly caused by car accidents, can lead to long-term pain and discomfort if not diagnosed correctly. While whiplash might seem like a straightforward neck injury, the symptoms can vary, and the damage isn’t always visible on traditional diagnostic imaging. That’s where Upright MRI technology comes in. For years, conventional MRIs have been the gold standard in diagnosing injuries, but they have limitations when it comes to detecting injuries like whiplash. By allowing patients to be scanned in an upright position, Upright MRIs provide a more accurate view of the injury’s impact, offering a significant advantage for those dealing with whiplash-related conditions."

"Scientists have discovered that poor sleep can limit the brain’s ability to clear toxins, raising the risk of dementia.

A study — published in Alzheimer's & Dementia: The Journal of the Alzheimer's Association — analyzed MRI scans from 40,000 adults in the UK Biobank, focusing on the glymphatic system. In a healthy brain, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is produced and flows through the glymphatic system, collecting waste and toxins and clearing them out of the brain."
