Longitudinal follow-up study on the natural growth pattern of multiple pulmonary ground-glass nodules with at least one nodule measuring 6 mm or larger
Multiple ground-glass nodules (GGNs) were defined as the presence of two or more GGNs within the lungs on computed tomography (CT). GGNs could be classified as either pure ground-glass nodules (pGGNs, without solid components) or mixed ground-glass nodules (mGGNs, containing solid components) [1,2]. Previous studies have demonstrated that GGNs that persist after 3–6 months of follow-up are strongly suggestive of primary lung adenocarcinoma [3–5]. However, existing studies on the evaluation and f…

Correlation between MRI-derived and biopsy-confirmed liver iron concentration in patients with chronic liver disease
Iron is an essential physiological element required for hematopoiesis. The liver serves as the principal storage site for iron in the body. Liver iron concentration (LIC) is commonly reported in milligrams of iron per gram of dry liver tissue (mg Fe/g) [1,2]. For the clinical hepatologist, liver iron quantification in chronic liver disease (CLD) patients may help determine disease etiology, progression, and management [3].

Optimization and application of zero echo time sequence in MRI of sacroiliac joints: a preliminary study
Axial spondyloarthritis (ax-SpA) is primarily manifested by active lesions (e.g., bone marrow edema) and structural lesions (e.g., bone erosion, sclerosis.), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the primary method for detecting active lesions. In our previous study, although synthetic MRI Sequences can assess both structural through T1WI (T1 weighted image) sequence and active lesions through STIR, (Short TI Inversion Recovery) sequence, the assessment of structural lesions still mainly relies on…

Simple mucinous cysts of the pancreas: Clinical and imaging findings – Case series and systematic review of the literature
Cystic pancreatic lesions (CPLs) are highly prevalent, especially in patients undergoing magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, due to technical refinements, increased awareness of their existence, and increased use of cross-sectional imaging. Accurate characterization of CPLs is mandatory, as they have a variable biological behavior and require different management according to their histologic nature. Even though the imaging features of CPLs are well known, diagnostic errors are still common among r…

Photon-counting detector computed tomography for evaluation of coronary artery disease in older adults
Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) in older adults is often limited by heavy coronary artery calcification and associated blooming artifacts. Photon-counting detector CT (PCD-CT) offers higher spatial resolution and reduced artifacts compared with conventional energy-integrating detector CT (EID-CT). We sought to investigate diagnostic performance and clinical impact of PCD-CT in older adults.

Artificial Intelligence in Radiology: Performance of ChatGPT-4v and GPT-4o on Diagnostic Radiology In-Training (DXIT) Examination Questions
The purpose of this study is to examine the performance of GPT-4vision (GPT-4v) and GPT-4omni (GPT-4o) on the American College of Radiology’s Diagnostic Radiology In-Training (DXIT) examination, comparing performance on image-based and text-only questions.

Chest computed tomography of trastuzumab-deruxtecan (T-DXd)-related interstitial lung disease: Key points for radiologists
Trastuzumab-deruxtecan (T-DXd) is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) composed of trastuzumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting HER2, linked to the cytotoxic agent deruxtecan via a chemical linker [1]. T-DXd has been increasingly used for treating various advanced human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive tumors, including breast cancer (BC) [2], gastric cancer [3], non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) [4], and colorectal cancer [5]. T-DXd has also shown clinical benefit in advanced HER…

Comparison of precise imaging and iterative reconstruction techniques at low doses using the dose right index in 100-kVp cerebral CT angiography
Cross-sectional imaging modalities have become indispensable in modern medical diagnostics, offering detailed anatomical visualization with minimal invasiveness[1,2]. Computed tomography (CT), in particular, has significantly advanced neurovascular imaging, facilitating the assessment of intracranial and cervical arteries with high spatial resolution and rapid acquisition times. CT cerebral angiography (CTCA) is extensively utilized to evaluate vascular abnormalities such as aneurysms, arteriove…
