Development and validation of a radiomics model based on the ASPECTS framework using CT imaging for predicting malignant cerebral edema
Ischemic stroke is the most common subtype of stroke, associated with high morbidity, disability, and mortality rates [1,2]. Malignant cerebral edema (MCE) is a life-threatening complication occurring within 2–5 days after a large hemispheric infarction, leading to elevated intracranial pressure, rapid neurological deterioration, and brain herniation and a mortality rate of 40 %-80 % [3,4]. Early identification of patients at risk of developing MCE is critical to enable timely management strateg…

Spatial heterogeneity and distribution of CT-Based pulmonary vascular volumes in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), classified as Group 4 in the World Symposium on Pulmonary Hypertension (WSPH) system, is a relatively uncommon form of pH that is characterized by persistent obstruction of the pulmonary vascular bed due to organized thrombus, neointima formation, and vascular webs[1,2]. Although there are a growing number of effective therapies for this condition (including surgical endarterectomy, endovascular methods, and pharmacologic agents), CTEPH rema…

Efficient T staging in nasopharyngeal carcinoma via deep Learning-Based Multi-Modal classification
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a malignancy arising from the nasopharyngeal mucosa [1]. This malignancy demonstrates a notable geographical variation in incidence, being highly prevalent in regions such as South China, Southeast Asia, and North Africa, where incidence rates range from 10 to 30 per 100,000 individuals annually [2]. Radiotherapy, particularly intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), is a critical and highly effective treatment for NPC, significantly improving survival outc…

Large Mammography Study Shows Mixed Results with AI in Breast Cancer Screening
While the AI software offered nearly equivalent negative predictive value (NPV) to radiologist interpretation of digital mammograms and digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) images, researchers noted that AI had significantly higher recall rates and false-positive results in patients with intermediate risk.

CT Study: High Coronary Artery Calcium Scores Associated with Double the Cardiovascular Mortality Risk at 25 Years
In a long-term follow-up analysis of the ELCAP CAC score for predicting cardiovascular mortality, over 30 percent of current or former smokers with high ELCAP CAC scoring on low-dose CT suffered cardiovascular disease death within a 25-year period.

Portable Imaging, Powerful Results
Veterinary practices are evolving. There’s much greater focus on and need for quickness, and mobility, whether at the clinic, on a barn visit, or at a remote location. The battery-powered portable x-ray systems take the stress out of the prospect of x-ray imaging for animals on location. Veterinarians are now able to offer sophisticated imaging […]
