Multimodal Brain Connectomics-Based Prediction of Parkinson's Disease Using Graph Attention Networks.

Background: A multimodal connectomic analysis using diffusion and functional MRI can provide complementary information on the structure-function network dynamics involved in complex neurodegenerative network disorders such as Parkinson's disease (PD). Deep learning-based graph neural network models generate higher-level embeddings that could capture intricate structural and functional regional interactions related to PD.

Objective: This study aimed at investigating the role of structure-function connections in predicting PD, by employing an end-to-end graph attention network (GAT) on multimodal brain connectomes along with an interpretability framework.

Radiomics signature for temporal evolution and recurrence patterns of glioblastoma using multimodal magnetic resonance imaging.

Glioblastoma is a highly infiltrative neoplasm with a high propensity of recurrence. The location of recurrence usually cannot be anticipated and depends on various factors, including the surgical resection margins. Currently, radiation planning utilizes the hyperintense signal from T2-FLAIR MRI and is delivered to a limited area defined by standardized guidelines.
