by Christos Evangelou, MSc, PhD – Medical Writer and Editor In a recent study, researchers at Lund University (Lund, Sweden), Istituto delle Scienze Neurologiche di Bologna (Bologna, Italy), and Instituto de Salud Carlos III (Madrid, Spain) identified a distinctive MRI signature associated with α-synuclein pathology in the brain. This protein, known for its role in Parkinson’s disease and Lewy body dementia, appears to […]

Beyond the Layers: Decoding Rare Ovarian Tumors with Advanced MRI Techniques
by Christos Evangelou, MSc, PhD – Medical Writer and Editor In a recent study, researchers at Jichi Medical University and Jichi Children’s Medical Center in Japan uncovered new diagnostic clues for distinguishing between two rare but aggressive ovarian tumors: ovarian carcinosarcoma and ovarian metastases from colorectal carcinoma (OMCRC). This study demonstrates that although both tumor types frequently exhibit the “Mille-Feuille sign” on MRI, a combination of other imaging features and seru…

MRI Instead of Biopsy in Prostate Cancer Under Active Surveillance Appears to Result in Underdiagnosis
For about three decades, active surveillance (AS) has been the preferred management for favorable-risk prostate cancer (PC) and has traditionally included confirmatory biopsy to address any under sampling at diagnosis. Recent guidelines, however, have suggested that magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) might replace confirmatory biopsy to do that. A new study led by the San […]
