A deep learning approach for automated diagnosis of pulmonary embolism on computed tomographic pulmonary angiography.

Background: Computed tomographic pulmonary angiography (CTPA) is the diagnostic standard for confirming pulmonary embolism (PE). Since PE is a life-threatening condition, early diagnosis and treatment are critical to avoid PE-associated morbidity and mortality. However, PE remains subject to misdiagnosis.

Utility of Constructive Interference in Steady-State Sequence in Detecting Thin Pituitary Stalk in Pituitary Stalk Interruption Syndrome.

Pituitary stalk interruption syndrome (PSIS) is a rare congenital anomaly, causing hypothalamic-pituitary malfunction. It is characterized by hypoplastic anterior pituitary, absent or thin infundibulum, and absent or ectopic posterior pituitary. Its early recognition is important in disease management.
