Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women which affects them emotionally and psychologically. The aim of this research was to examine emotional functioning and self-perception in post mastectomy women. This cross-sectional single-center study included 101 women with breast cancer one month and one year after mastectomy.

Two-parametric prescan calibration of gradient-induced sampling errors for rosette MRI.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to develop a simple, robust, and easy-to-use calibration procedure for correcting misalignments in rosette MRI k-space sampling, with the objective of producing images with minimal artifacts.

Methods: Quick automatic calibration scans were proposed for the beginning of the measurement to collect information on the time course of the rosette acquisition trajectory. A two-parameter model was devised to match the measured time-varying readout gradient delays and approximate the actual rosette sampling trajectory.

Adjuvant radiotherapy after brain metastasectomy: analysis of consecutive cohort of 118 patients from real world practice.

Background: The aim of this retrospective study is to analyze a consecutive cohort of brain metastasis (BM) patients treated off clinical trials through combination of surgery and radiotherapy over the last 15 years in a tertiary neurooncology center.

Materials And Methods: All BM patients operated between 2007-2019 received adjuvant linac-based radiotherapy categorized to whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) and tumor bed stereotactic radiotherapy. Survival outcomes and local control was analyzed.

A pathological lesion or a postmortem artefact? An interdisciplinary approach to deal with an interesting early medieval case.

Objective: This study evaluates a case of pseudopathology and the effects that postmortem taphonomic changes and environmental influences can have on bone.

Material: A skeleton of a young male from the early medieval site Staré Město, dated to the 9th-10th century CE.

Methods: The skeletal remains were subjected to detailed macroscopic and X-ray examination, and then a CT scan and XRF analysis were performed.
