Background: Some tumors previously staged as N2 disease, using the Mountain-Dresler/American Thoracic Society (MD-ATS) map are staged as N1 per the new International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) lymph node (LN) map. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the IASLC LN map in stratifying prognosis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and LN metastasis in nodal stations 4 or 10.
Methods: Of 2,086 patients undergoing curative surgical resection for NSCLC, we searched for patients who had LNs harboring cancer cells in nodal stations 10 or 4 (n = 531) and reclassified them into three different subgroups (N1 [N1 according to both the MD-ATS and IASLC maps], in-between [N2 according to the MD-ATS map but N1 by the IASLC map], and N2 [N2 according to both maps]) based on histopathologic results.
Objective: To compare the diagnostic performance of light emitting diode (LED) backlight monitors and cold cathode fluorescent lamp (CCFL) monitors for the interpretation of digital chest radiographs.
Materials And Methods: We selected 130 chest radiographs from health screening patients. The soft copy image data were randomly sorted and displayed on a 3.

Objective: The number of citations an article receives after its publication reflects its impact in the scientific community. The aim of this study was to identify and characterize the 100 top-cited articles published in radiology journals.
Materials And Methods: The top-cited articles published in 12 radiology journals were identified using the database of Science Citation Index Expanded (1945-2012).
Article Synopsis
- This study focuses on persistent pure ground-glass opacity (GGO) nodules that are 10 mm or larger, looking to understand their histopathology and prognosis.
- A total of 46 resected nodules were analyzed using thin-section CT scans, and various characteristics were assessed to distinguish between different types of adenocarcinomas.
- The findings reveal that nodule size and mass are key indicators of invasive adenocarcinoma, with no recurrence noted in patients followed for at least three years after surgery, indicating a good prognosis.
Purpose: To evaluate accurate diagnosis and complication rates of percutaneous core needle biopsy (PCNB) with an automated gun for small lung nodules that are 10 mm or less in diameter.
Materials And Methods: Forty-two cases of small lung nodules with diameters ≤ 10 mm (mean diameter, 9 mm) that received a PCNB were included in this study. Imaging guidance was fluoroscopy in 30 cases and computed tomography (CT) in 12 cases.
Purpose: The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of CT features of the gallbladder in the prediction of gallstone pancreatitis.
Materials And Methods: Eighty-six patients who underwent a diagnostic computed tomography (CT) scan for acute pancreatitis were included. The readers assessed the presence of pericholecystic increased attenuation of the liver parenchyma, enhancement of gallbladder (GB) and common bile duct (CBD) wall, pericholecystic fat strands, GB wall thickening, stone in the GB or CBD, and focal or diffuse manifestations of pancreatitis on abdominal CT scans.
Background: Percutaneous injection of bone cement (acrylic cement) during percutaneous kyphoplasty and vertebroplasty can cause symptomatic or asymptomatic complications due to leakage, extravasation or vascular migration of cement.
Purpose: To investigate and to compare the incidence and site of local leakage or complications of bone cement after percutaneous kyphoplasty and vertebroplasty using bone cement.
Material And Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 473 cases of percutaneous kyphoplasty or vertebroplasty performed under fluoroscopic guidance.
