Transhepatic or endoscopic placement of self-expanding metallic stents is an established method of palliative treatment for relieving malignant biliary obstructions. Metallic stents were found to be superior to plastic stents, and they have longer patency rates and lower complication rates [1–3]. The most frequent causes of stent occlusion are sludge formation, tumor ingrowth, proximal and distal tumor overgrowth, food debris, and stone formation [4,5]. Covered stents were developed to minimize …

Diagnostic performance of abbreviated breast MRI in differentiating intraductal papilloma from ductal secretion
Breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is widely regarded as the most sensitive imaging modality for diagnosing breast diseases, particularly in the detection of malignant lesions [1]. Dynamic contrast-enhanced breast MRI (DCE-MRI), with its high sensitivity, has emerged as a critical tool in problem-solving, early detection, and evaluation of breast cancer and other pathologies [2,3]. Although conventional FDB-MRI protocols are considered the gold standard for screening high-risk individuals a…

Performance of AI methods in PET-based imaging for outcome prediction in lymphoma: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Clonal proliferation of lymphocytes can result in various malignant lymphomas, including Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). The majority of lymphoma cases (90 %) are NHL, predominantly originating from B cells [1,2]. NHL and HL accounted for 2.8 % and 0.4 % of new cancer diagnoses, and 2.6 % and 0.2 % of cancer-related deaths worldwide, respectively [3]. Identifying high-risk patients at diagnosis is crucial for treatment planning and precision medicine. Various prognostic met…

Lesions located at the liver periphery: A stepwise cross-sectional imaging approach toward diagnosis
Lesions located at the periphery of the liver may arise from the liver parenchyma or tissues located outside the liver. All intrahepatic focal liver lesions may show peripheral distribution; however, some focal liver lesions show a predilection for peripheral location. Several extra-hepatic processes may involve the liver periphery, including the capsular and the subcapsular regions, due to this region’s specific anatomic, peritoneal, and hemodynamic features. The capsular region includes the Gl…

MRI-based predictive model with obesity metabolic phenotype for postoperative survival in HBV-related hepatocellular carcinoma
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver cancer, responsible for approximately 85–90 % of all cases [1]. The disease burden is especially pronounced in China, with morbidity and mortality ranking fourth and second among malignancies, respectively [2]. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains the predominant risk factor for HCC, with nearly half of the cases worldwide attributed to chronic hepatitis B [3]. Although non-alcoholic steatosis is becoming an increasing risk fac…

Diagnostic performance of biparametric MRI according to prostate imaging quality (PI-QUAL) version 2: Analysis of Multi-Institutional Data
Prostate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is important for detecting prostate cancer (PCa) and the risk stratification of patients requiring prostate biopsy in the era of MRI-directed PCa diagnosis [1,2]. Despite the clear diagnostic benefits of MRI-directed diagnostic pathways reported in various clinical trials [3–5], the results may not be directly applicable in general practice owing to the variability of prostate MRI quality and expertise in MRI reading [2]. Image optimisation and standardi…
