Background And Purpose:

The aim of the study was to investigate the question: Can MRI radiomics analysis of the periaqueductal gray region elucidate the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying various migraine subtypes, and can a machine learning model using these radiomics features accurately differentiate between migraine patients and healthy individuals, as well as between migraine subtypes, including atypical cases with overlapping symptoms?

.

Methods:

The study analyzed initial MRI images of individuals taken after their first migraine diagnosis, and additional MRI scans were acquired from healthy subjects. Radiomics modeling was applied to analyze all the MRI images in the periaqueductal gray region.

This review article highlights the potential of integrating photon-counting computed tomography (CT) and deep learning algorithms in medical imaging to enhance diagnostic accuracy, improve image quality, and reduce radiation exposure. The use of photon-counting CT provides superior image quality, reduced radiation dose, and material decomposition capabilities, while deep learning algorithms excel in automating image analysis and improving diagnostic accuracy. The integration of these technologies can lead to enhanced material decomposition and classification, spectral image analysis, predictive modeling for individualized medicine, workflow optimization, and radiation dose management.

In pediatric radiology, balancing diagnostic accuracy with reduced radiation exposure is paramount due to the heightened vulnerability of younger patients to radiation. Technological advancements in computed tomography (CT) reconstruction techniques, especially model-based iterative reconstruction and deep learning image reconstruction, have enabled significant reductions in radiation doses without compromising image quality. Deep learning image reconstruction, powered by deep learning algorithms, has demonstrated superiority over traditional techniques like filtered back projection, providing enhanced image quality, especially in pediatric head and cardiac CT scans.

Background And Objectives: Early detection and diagnosis of thyroid nodule types are important because they can be treated more effectively in their early stages. The types of thyroid nodules are generally stated as atypia of undetermined significance/follicular lesion of undetermined significance (AUS/FLUS), benign follicular, and papillary follicular. The risk of malignancy for AUS/FLUS is typically stated to be between 5 and 15 %, while some studies indicate a risk as high as 25 %.

Background And Purpose: Cystic pituitary adenomas and cystic craniopharyngiomas may mimic Rathke cleft cysts when there is no solid enhancing component on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This study aims to investigate the efficiency of MRI findings in differentiating Rathke cleft cysts from pure cystic pituitary adenoma and pure cystic craniopharyngioma.

Materials And Methods: 109 patients were included in this study (56 Rathke cleft cysts, 38 pituitary adenomas, and 15 craniopharyngiomas).
