Dynamic contrast-enhanced CT-derived extracellular volume fraction for predicting postoperative oncologic outcomes in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an oncological disease with high mortality and poor prognosis, although there have been advances in diagnostic imaging and therapeutic strategies [1,2]. Accurate prognostication of postoperative outcomes is crucial for optimizing patient care and treatment planning [3–9]. Currently, prognostic prediction in PDAC heavily relies on clinicopathological parameters, such as tumor stage, grade, and markers [1,2,10]. However, these factors alone may not fully …

Sonographic signs of pediatric ovarian torsion: Multicenter study with surgical correlation
Pediatric ovarian torsion is a rare but serious gynecological emergency that occurs when the ovary twists around its supporting ligaments, compromising blood flow. If left untreated, this condition can lead to ischemia, necrosis, and potential loss of ovarian function [1]. It poses a significant risk to premenarchal and early postmenarchal girls due to hormonal and anatomical factors, such as long fallopian tubes and ovarian cysts [2]. The clinical presentation typically includes acute abdominal…

Image-based AI tools in peripheral nerves assessment: Current status and integration strategies − A narrative review
Classically, Peripheral Nerves (PNs) have been evaluated from a radiological perspective using US or MRI. These imaging modalities allow radiologists to accurately identify PNs and classify them as normal or pathological based on various radiological signs, patient symptoms, and electrophysiological tests. However, concerns persist regarding the evaluation of PNs using conventional imaging techniques.

Lumen-isodense coronary plaque – A challenge for coronary computed tomography (CTA), leading to inaccuracies in stenosis grading?
Coronary plaque with equal density to the coronary lumen (lumens-isodense) are frequent (12.7% prevalence) on coronary CTA. The discordance rate to invasive coronary angiography (ICA) is relatively high. Lumens isodense plaques should be reported to raise awareness for possible inaccuracies in stenosis grading.

New Study Shows Impact of Tau-Positive PET in Risk Stratification for Dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease
For people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), new research suggests that a combination of amyloid-positive and tau-positive PET findings is linked to a nearly 70 percent risk of progressing to dementia in five years in comparison to an approximate 30 percent risk for those with amyloid β positive and tau-negative PET.
