Impact of CT reconstruction algorithms on pericoronary and epicardial adipose tissue attenuation
To investigate the impact of adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction-Veo (ASIR-V) and deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) algorithms on the quantification of pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT) and epicardial adipose tissue (EAT), and to explore the feasibility of correcting the effects through fat threshold adjustment.

Predicting early recurrence in hepatocellular carcinoma after hepatectomy using GD-EOB-DTPA enhanced MRI-based model
HCC is the most common pathological type of primary liver cancer and accounts for approximately 75 % to 85 % of cases [1]. There is no favorable prognosis for HCC patients with an overall median survival of approximately 29.8 months [2]. Although curative surgical resection is considered the first-line treatment for early-stage HCC patients with well-preserved liver function [3], postoperative recurrence is a major risk to long-term survival with a 5 years recurrence rate of 70 % [4]. Early recu…

Non-Contrast Dual-Energy CT iodine quantification for lung injury characterization after balloon pulmonary angioplasty
Balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) is the invasive alternative treatment (class I recommendation by the European Society of Cardiology/European Respiratory Society) for patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) not amenable to pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) [1–4]. Postprocedural lung injury represents one of the most prevalent complications associated with BPA, with rates between 4–10 % [5,6]. The causal mechanism underlying post-BPA lung injury remains elusive. Initia…

Diagnostic performance and reproducibility of ACR Bone-RADS for the radiographic evaluation of potentially neoplastic bone lesions
Conventional radiography is still the technique of choice in the initial evaluation of bone lesions, allowing to detect the lesion, to identify its matrix and features of aggressiveness [1–3].

Prediction of early recurrence in primary central nervous system lymphoma based on multimodal MRI-based radiomics: A preliminary study
Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a rare extra-nodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The prognosis of patients has been greatly improved by the introduction of a variety of treatment regimens. High-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) −based combination chemotherapy combined with a variety of consolidation treatments can achieve a first-line response rate of 63 % [1]. Nonetheless, up to 50–60 % of patients end up with relapsed/refractory (R/R) disease, and the prognosis of R/R PCNSL remains poor [2…

Novel approach to MRI based risk stratification of uterine myometrial lesions
Uterine mesenchymal tumor (UMT) encompasses a heterogeneous group of lesions ranging from benign variants, primarily leiomyomas, to malignant sarcomas [1]. Misdiagnosing sarcoma, particularly leiomyosarcoma which are the most common histological type, can have lethal consequences due to their poor prognosis [2,3]. Additionally, the large size of these malignant tumors, which may be underdiagnosed as myomas and subsequently referred for morcellation during minimally invasive surgery, can lead to …
