Comparing Texture Analysis of Apparent Diffusion Coefficient MRI in Hepatocellular Adenoma and Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

Aim: This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of using MRI-apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) map-driven radiomics to differentiate between hepatocellular adenoma (HCA) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) features.

Materials And Methods: The study involved 55 patients with liver tumors (20 with HCA and 35 with HCC), featuring 106 lesions equally distributed between hepatic carcinoma and hepatic adenoma who underwent texture analysis on ADC map MR images. The analysis identified several imaging features that significantly differed between the HCA and HCC groups.

Prediction of lymphovascular space invasion in cervical carcinoma using diffusion kurtosis imaging.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the potential relationship between diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI)- derived parameters and lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI) in patients with cervical carcinoma.

Patients And Methods: This prospective study included 30 patients with cervical carcinoma. The patients underwent MRI, diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and DKI prior to surgery.

Long‑term behavioral, histological, biochemical and hematological evaluations of amyloid beta‑induced Alzheimer's disease in rat.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a mental impairment and neural degeneration which causes progressive loss of memory and cognitive functions. This age‑dependent illness is associated with extracellular amyloid plaques accumulation and twisted neurofibrillary tangles. Amyloid plaques are experimentally generated in animal models in order to investigate the disease process.
