Differentiation of invasive ductal and lobular carcinoma of the breast using MRI radiomic features: a pilot study.

Background: Breast cancer (BC) is one of the main causes of cancer-related mortality among women. For clinical management to help patients survive longer and spend less time on treatment, early and precise cancer identification and differentiation of breast lesions are crucial. To investigate the accuracy of radiomic features (RF) extracted from dynamic contrast-enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DCE MRI) for differentiating invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) from invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC).

Morphometric analysis of the main brain sulci and clinical implications: Radiological and cadaveric study.

Objective: Sulci and gyri of the cerebrum can be easily identified with the aid of radiology but are difficult to locate during surgical operations, owing to anatomical variations and the surgical approach of the sulci through a small aperture. Therefore, this study was performed to locate the main sulci of the brain by using various anatomical landmarks in cadaveric brain specimens and CT scan images.

Methods: In 31 cadaveric brain specimens (17 right and 14 left hemispheres) from people of unknown sex, 21 parameters associated with important sulci of the brain were studied.
