Article Synopsis
  • The PRECINCT study evaluated how different morphological appearances of peritoneal malignancies on imaging related to pathological findings in a large patient group.
  • It involved the analysis of imaging from 630 patients across seven centers, using 24 morphological terms to describe peritoneal tumors, highlighting high pathological positivity rates for several specific appearances.
  • The study recommends standardizing morphological descriptions in radiology reports to improve diagnostic accuracy and proposes that expert radiologists develop a consensus on terminology for better communication in clinical practice.

Article Synopsis
  • The PRECINCT study is a multicenter analysis of surgical documentation and disease incidence in patients with peritoneal tumors, focusing on the surgical peritoneal cancer index (sPCI) and its variations across centers.
  • Among 707 enrolled patients from September 2020 to December 2021, the study found that different morphological terminologies were used to describe peritoneal lesions, with the most common being "normal peritoneum," "tumor nodules," and "confluent disease."
  • The research revealed that the incidence of pathologically confirmed disease was higher in cases with more severe lesion scores and suggested that using frozen section analysis could be beneficial, indicating the need for larger studies correlating imaging and pathology.

Breast cancer remains a significant contributor to cancer-related deaths among women globally. We seek for this study to examine the correlation between the incidence rates of breast cancer and newly identified risk factors. Additionally, we aim to utilize machine learning models to predict breast cancer incidence at a country level.
