Endometriosis involving the bowel is a severe form of the disease, and the bowel is the most common site of extragenital endometriosis. Surface lesions of the bowel are considered peritoneal disease. Bowel endometriosis (BE) is defined as […]

CONCLUSIONS: Novel tools for diagnosing IPF reduced diagnostic costs, while overall incremental cost-effectiveness ratios were high due to treatment costs. New IPF diagnosis approaches may become more favourable with lower-cost treatments for IPF.

CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates the feasibility of generating high-quality labeled MR datasets through collaboration between a radiologist and two data scientists, which is essential for training AI models to automate tumor detection and […]

CONCLUSION: Employing amplitude weights in the reconstruction of a diffusion-prepared sequence can improve SNR efficiency at the cost of a greater minimum sampling time and increased sensitivity to B(1) inhomogeneity.

CONCLUSION: Regardless of CT manufacturer or slice thickness, ScreenDx demonstrated high performance across two, multi-site datasets for identifying incidental cases of pulmonary fibrosis. This suggest that the algorithm may be generalizable across […]

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is increasingly being used to detect prostate cancer, yet its interpretation can be challenging due to subtle differences between benign and cancerous tissue. Recently, Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Models […]

CONCLUSION: A suite of IQ metrics, including DFDs and HFEN, should be used alongside commonly-reported IQ metrics for a more holistic evaluation of MR image reconstruction perceptual quality. We also observe that general vision encoders are capable […]

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: ProCUSNet can localize clinically significant cancer on screen capture B-mode ultrasound, a task that is particularly challenging for clinicians reading these examinations. As a supplement to systematic […]

CONCLUSIONS: The value of mrCR in predicting pathologic response following neoadjuvant therapy in locally advanced rectal cancer is low, and mrCR should be interpreted with caution when counseling patients about nonoperative management. Early, […]

OBJECTIVE: To identify MRI features of desmoid tumors (DTs) that predict the growth of residual disease following ablation.

CONCLUSIONS: CODE-generated motion compensating gradients improves multishot pancreatic DWI as interpreted by expert readers and eliminated ADC variation throughout the pancreas. DL-based denoising mitigated signal losses from motion compensation […]

CONCLUSION: T(2)C metrics are more sensitive than ΔT(2)Mean for longitudinal monitoring of femoral cartilage post ACLR. Our findings suggest potential merging of T(2) clusters overtime, forming larger areas of cartilage degradation in ACLR knees.

Molecular imaging using positron emission tomography (PET) provides sensitive detection and mapping of molecular targets. While cancer-associated fibroblasts and integrins have been proposed as targets for imaging of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma […]

Background: PSMA PET radiomics is a promising tool for primary prostate cancer (PCa) characterisation. However, small single-centre studies and lack of external validation hinder definitive conclusions on the potential of PSMA PET radiomics in the […]

Liver masses in children with underlying systemic disease or a predisposing syndrome can be benign or malignant, ranging from focal fat to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Knowledge of the underlying condition, the pathophysiologic effect on the […]

INTRODUCTION: MRI-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) thalamotomy of the nucleus ventralis intermedius (VIM) has emerged as a powerful and safe treatment modality for refractory essential tremor. While the efficacy of this technique has been […]

Endometriosis is a chronic systemic condition characterized by the presence of ectopic endometrial-like tissue outside of the uterus. It occurs most often in reproductive-aged patients and less frequently in postmenopausal women. In postmenopausal […]

CONCLUSION: CorrFABR provides a novel method for CT-based aggressiveness classification of ccRCC by enabling the identification of pathology-informed CT biomarkers, and integrating them with clinical variables. CorrFABR enables learning of these […]

INTRODUCTION: High risk myeloma is heterogeneous with significant variation in risk stratifications. Real world outcomes differ from controlled clinical trials and affected by socioeconomical determinants.

CONCLUSION: NESTIS-VR provides a new approach to rendering medical datasets in computationally limited OST-HMD headsets and significantly increases surgeons' confidence of kidney donor arterial anatomy. The principal confidence benefit arises from […]

Background The Ovarian-Adnexal Imaging Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) US risk score can be used to accurately stratify ovarian lesions based on morphologic characteristics. However, there are no large multicenter studies assessing the potential […]

CONCLUSIONS: The study reveals a paradigm shift in prostate cancer diagnostics towards MRI-guided approaches, influenced by evolving guidelines and clinical evidence. Disparities in access, particularly in rural areas and specific regions, highlight […]

Endometriosis is a common condition impacting approximately 190 million individuals and up to 50% of women with infertility globally. The disease is characterized by endometrial-like tissue located outside of the uterine corpus, which causes […]

CONCLUSION: IVIM and PET was performed on cervical cancer patients undergoing CCRT and we observed that both IVIM-f and IVIM-D increased during treatment. Additionally, PRM was applied, and sub-volumes were identified that were related to ΔGTV.

CONCLUSION: Acquisition of distortionless diffusion weighted images of the prostate is feasible in patients with total hip replacements on conventional, whole-body 3T MRI, using a b-value of 800 s / mm 2 $$ \mathrm{s}/{\mathrm{mm}}^2 $$ and […]

Purpose To compare diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) with thermal dosimetry as a noncontrast method to predict ablation margins in individuals with prostate cancer treated with MRI-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) ablation. Materials and Methods […]

The Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) is an evidence-based clinical support system for ovarian and adnexal lesion assessment in women of average risk. The system has both US and MRI components with separate but complementary […]
