Characterization of renal masses with MRI-based radiomics: assessment of inter-package and inter-observer reproducibility in a prospective pilot study.

Objectives: To evaluate radiomics features' reproducibility using inter-package/inter-observer measurement analysis in renal masses (RMs) based on MRI and to employ machine learning (ML) models for RM characterization.

Methods: 32 Patients (23M/9F; age 61.8 ± 10.

Longitudinal assessment of hepatocellular carcinoma response to stereotactic body radiation using gadoxetate-enhanced MRI: A case series.

Purpose: To describe the longitudinal response in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treated with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and who underwent liver transplant (LT) using gadoxetate-enhanced MRI.

Methods: Five men (median age 61y, range 57-64y) with 6 HCCs treated with SBRT (median dose 50 Gy) who subsequently underwent LT were included in this retrospective study. Patients underwent gadoxetate-enhanced MRI before and after SBRT over a period of 3-18 months.

Characterization and Prediction of Signal Intensity Changes in Normal Liver Parenchyma on Gadoxetic Acid-enhanced MRI Scans after Liver-directed Radiation Therapy.

Purpose To better characterize and understand the significance of focal liver reaction (FLR) development in a large cohort of patients who underwent gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI after being treated with radiation therapy (RT) for hepatobiliary tumors. Materials and Methods This retrospective study evaluated 100 patients (median age, 65 years [first and third quartiles, 60-69 years]; 80 men) who underwent RT for hepatocellular carcinoma, bile duct tumors, or liver metastases at Mount Sinai Hospital between March 1, 2018, and February 29, 2020. CT simulation scans were fused to MRI scans obtained 1-6 months and 6-12 months after RT, using the hepatobiliary phase of the MRI.

Multisystem Imaging Manifestations of COVID-19, Part 2: From Cardiac Complications to Pediatric Manifestations.

Infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 results in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which was declared an official pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020. COVID-19 has been reported in most countries, and as of August 15, 2020, there have been over 21 million cases of COVID-19 reported worldwide, with over 800 000 COVID-19-associated deaths. Although COVID-19 predominantly affects the respiratory system, it has become apparent that many other organ systems can also be involved.
