The value of a multimodal ultrasound radiomics-based nomogram in predicting central lymph node metastasis of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma
Thyroid cancer has become one of the most common malignant tumors of the endocrine system worldwide [1]. Among its subtypes, papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) accounts for approximately 80% of all cases [2]. According to the World Health Organization classification, PTC with a maximum diameter ≤10 mm is defined as papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC), which exhibits distinct clinical and biological characteristics [3]. Although most PTMCs progress slowly with a 5-year disease-specific surviva…

The application of Machine learning in predicting the outcomes of minimally invasive treatments for uterine Fibroids: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Uterine fibroids (UFs) are benign overgrowth of smooth muscle cells and connective tissue within the uterus. UFs are considered the most prevalent benign tumors of the female reproductive system, with a cumulative lifetime incidence rate of up to 50% of women globally [1,2]. While the majority of cases are asymptomatic, UFs can lead to significant morbidity including irregular uterine hemorrhage, obstructed labor, fibroid torsion, and gravid uterine torsion [3,4] Patients with abnormal uterine b…

Development and validation of a nomogram to predict surgical resection after conversion therapy in unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma
This study aimed to explore factors associated with the likelihood of surgical resection after triple-combination conversion therapy in patients with initially unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC) and to develop an exploratory predictive model.

Gallbladder adenomyomatosis revisited – Does size matter? is follow-up required for large lesions?
Adenomyomatosis (ADM) is generally considered a benign condition. However, it can be associated with chronic cholecystitis − a known risk factor for gallbladder cancer. Therefore, studies have proposed follow-up with ultrasound for asymptomatic patients with focal ADM. Currently, there are no formal recommendations regarding the frequency and length of follow-up. The aims of this study were to assess the growth of ADM lesions during follow-up and to examine the differences between larger and sma…

MRI sign of venous varicosity aids in diagnosis of quadrilateral space syndrome: A comparative study
The diagnosis of quadrilateral space syndrome (QSS) is difficult due to its vague symptoms and lacking of simple imaging signs. This study aimed to assess the diagnostic value of venous varicosity as an indirect MRI marker for QSS.

Computed tomography description of abdominal complications due to fishbone ingestion
Purpose: Inadvertent ingestion of fishbone can lead to bowel perforation. Numerous cases reports have been published; therefore, we aimed to describe the localization and type of complication in a dedicated cohort.Material and Methods: From 2009 to 2023, we queried our local informatic department (Cayenne Hospital, French Guiana) to search electronic patient records (ICD-10 code T18: Foreign body in alimentary tract) and we reviewed each case to identify abdominal complication caused by fishbone…

Digital mammography -guided versus digital breast Tomosynthesis- guided biopsy: A comparative study of sampling suspicious breast calcifications
Microcalcifications, which are deposits of calcium in breast tissue, are found in approximately one-third of all malignant breast lesions detected during screening mammography [1]. They are commonly associated with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and invasive carcinomas, with 90% of non-palpable DCIS cases and 20% of minimal infiltrating carcinomas diagnosed based solely on calcifications [2]. Beyond early detection, the presence of calcifications is more often associated with poorer prognostic …

Spectral CT-derived extracellular volume fraction for pathological characterization and noninvasive T staging in colon cancer
To investigate the association between the extracellular volume fraction (ECV) quantified by spectral CT and multiparameter pathological features (Ki-67, mismatch repair status, WHO Grade, Perineural/Lymphovascular Invasion, pT/pN Stage) in colon cancer, and to develop a noninvasive preoperative prediction model for any indicator showing a significant association.
