Abstract
Lack of disclosure of Conflicts of Interest (COI) in radiology research can undermine trust in medical recommendations and patient care. A recent study found significant discrepancies between disclosed COIs and those listed in the Open Payments Database (OPD). This commentary discusses the importance of transparency in financial and nonfinancial COIs, the implications of undisclosed COIs on research integrity and clinical decision-making, and the challenges and controversies surrounding current disclosure practices. The field of radiology should discuss and update COI management and ethical standards, for more practical accountability in radiology publishing.
