Background: Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage is an emergency that can lead to a high mortality rate and many severe complications. It is critical to make a rapid radiological evaluation of ruptured intracranial aneurysms (RIAs) to determine the appropriate surgical treatment.
Aim: To assess the reliability of computed tomography angiography (CTA) in assessing different features of ruptured intracranial aneurysm and its impact on patient management.
Gliomas are the most common type of primary brain tumors and one of the highest causes of mortality worldwide. Accurate grading of gliomas is of immense importance to administer proper treatment plans. In this paper, we develop a comprehensive non-invasive multimodal magnetic resonance (MR)-based computer-aided diagnostic (CAD) system to precisely differentiate between different grades of gliomas (Grades: I, II, III, and IV).

Material And Methods: Retrospective analysis of 137 hepatic focal lesions in 108 patients at risk of HCC, who underwent magnetic resonance imaging of the liver. Hepatic focal lesions were classified according to LI-RADS-v2018, and ADC of hepatic lesions was calculated by 2 independent blinded reviewers.
Purpose: To assess arterial spin labelling (ASL) perfusion and diffusion MR imaging (DWI) in the differentiation of grade II from grade III gliomas.
Material And Methods: A prospective cohort study was done on 36 patients (20 male and 16 female) with diffuse gliomas, who underwent ASL and DWI. Diffuse gliomas were classified into grade II and grade III.
Purpose: To determine inter-reader agreement in categorizing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treated with locoregional therapy using the Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System (LI-RADS) treatment response (LR-TR) algorithm.
Materials And Methods: A total of 93 patients with a total of 112 HCC nodules that were treated using thermal ablation or transarterial chemoembolization were prospectively included. There were 79 men and 14 women with a mean age of 55±2.
