Assessing the diagnostic accuracy of artificial intelligence in post-endovascular aneurysm repair endoleak detection using dual-energy computed tomography angiography.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of an artificial intelligence (AI) tool in detecting endoleaks in patients undergoing endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) using dual-energy computed tomography angiography (CTA).

Material And Methods: The study involved 95 patients who underwent EVAR and subsequent CTA follow-up. Dualenergy scans were performed, and images were reconstructed as linearly blended (LB) and 40 keV virtual monoenergetic (VMI) images.

The Presence of spp. and its Effect on the Occurrence of Other Microorganisms in the Reproductive Tract of Polish Women.

Disorders of the vaginal microbiota can lead to many complications and affect fertility. This study evaluates the role of in the vagina and its impact on the incidence of colonization by pathogenic microorganisms, analyzing the results of 1,039 women of reproductive age (18-49 years) who underwent a microbiological examination of the reproductive tract in 2020. Samples were examined by microscopy, culture, and NAAT.

Analysis of IVIM Perfusion Fraction Improves Detection of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) parameters can enhance the diagnostic performance of MRI in differentiating normal pancreatic parenchyma from solid pancreatic adenocarcinomas. This study included 113 participants: 66 patients diagnosed with pancreatic adenocarcinoma and 47 healthy volunteers. An MRI was conducted at 1.

Evaluation of pancreatic function in patients with plaque psoriasis.

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory dermatosis with periods of exacerbation and remission. Prevalence of psoriasis is estimated at 1-3% of the population of Europe and the United States of America. The disease process may affect the skin, nails and joints.
