Background And Objective: The association between interstitial lung abnormalities (ILA) and various conditions and diseases, including drug-related pneumonitis (DRP), has been reported. However, the association of the presence of ILA with developing DRP in patients undergoing cytotoxic agent-based chemotherapy, one of the standard treatments for malignancies, remains unclear. This warrants urgent investigation.

- Immune-related pneumonitis (irP) is a significant side effect of immune checkpoint inhibitors, often relapsing after corticosteroid treatment, which complicates cancer therapy.* -
- A study analyzed 56 patients with irP and found that 39.3% experienced relapses post-prednisolone therapy; significant risk factors included a radiographic pattern of organizing pneumonia and an onset of irP more than 100 days after starting treatment.* -
- Identifying these risk factors is crucial for better managing irP in patients undergoing treatment, as it could lead to improved outcomes.*
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of deep learning reconstruction (DLR) on the quality of computed tomography hepatic arteriography (CTHA) images taken during transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE).
- Twenty-seven patients were analyzed using three different reconstruction algorithms: hybrid-iterative reconstruction (hybrid-IR), DLR with mild strength (DLR-M), and DLR with strong strength (DLR-S).
- Results showed that DLR-S provided significantly better image quality, with higher signal-to-noise ratios and superior sharpness for vascular structures and tumors compared to the other algorithms, although feeder artery detection rates were similar across all methods.
A 56-year-old man was born to consanguineous parents. He experienced slow-progressing sensory disturbances in the upper extremities. T1-weighted images showed cerebellar atrophy.

Familiarity with these conditions may improve diagnostic accuracy and patient management. This review aimed to describe the imaging findings of drug-associated hepatobiliary and pancreatic disorders and identify suggestions for obtaining a correct diagnosis.
