Semiquantitative magnetic resonance imaging parameters for differentiating parotid pleomorphic adenoma from Warthin tumor.

Background: Accurately distinguishing between pleomorphic adenoma (PA) and Warthin tumor (WT) is beneficial for their respective management. Preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can provide valuable information due to its excellent soft tissue contrast. This study explored the value of semiquantitative contrast-enhanced MRI parameters in the differential diagnosis of PA and WT.

Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is a common type of brain disorders among young adults. The dysfunction of the brain is often exacerbated due to diffuse axonal injury (DAI) which based on the injury of white matter fibers and axons. Since mild and moderate brain injury or DAI are diffuse and subtle, conventional CT and MRI are difficult to make a positive diagnosis.
