Background High-quality translations of radiology reports are essential for optimal patient care. Because of limited availability of human translators with medical expertise, large language models (LLMs) are a promising solution, but their ability to translate radiology reports remains largely unexplored. Purpose To evaluate the accuracy and quality of various LLMs in translating radiology reports across high-resource languages (English, Italian, French, German, and Chinese) and low-resource languages (Swedish, Turkish, Russian, Greek, and Thai).

Methods: This prospective, single-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial enrolled term newborns with moderate to severe HIE admitted to neonatal intensive care unit between April 2018 and April 2022. Hypothermia was started within 12 hours of birth.
Introduction: Artificial Intelligence (AI) has made a profound impact on the medical sector, particularly in radiology. The integration of AI knowledge into medical education is essential to equip future healthcare professionals with the skills needed to effectively leverage these advancements in their practices. Despite its significance, many medical schools have yet to incorporate AI into their curricula.

Methods: CT images and clinical data from 141 ICH patients from 2010 to 2022 were collected. The cohort comprised primary (n = 57), tumorous (n = 46), and vascular malformation-related ICH (n = 38).
Objective: This study investigated the feasibility of using deep learning-based super-resolution (DL-SR) technique on low-resolution (LR) images to generate high-resolution (HR) MR images with the aim of scan time reduction. The efficacy of DL-SR was also assessed through the application of brain volume measurement (BVM).
Materials And Methods: In vivo brain images acquired with 3D-T1W from various MRI scanners were utilized.
Purpose: Propeller fast-spin-echo diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (FSE-dMRI) is essential for the diagnosis of Cholesteatoma. However, at clinical 1.5 T MRI, its signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) remains relatively low.

The ABC/2 method for ICH volume is the standard method used to date, however, its level of accuracy has been questioned in some studies. This study compared the performance of the ABC/2 method with planimetry and truncated pyramidal methods to highlight the potential of the planimetry method applied with automatic segmentation for evaluation of epidural hematoma (EDH) and intraparenchymal hematoma (IPH) volume.

Computed tomography (CT) scanning is the investigation of choice for TBI and has become increasingly utilized under the shortage of trained radiology personnel. It is anticipated that deep learning models will be a promising solution for the generation of timely and accurate radiology reports.

Genetic variants in have been reported to cause autosomal recessive osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) type VIII. Clinical and radiographic examinations, whole-exome sequencing (WES), and bioinformatic analysis were performed in 11 Thai children of Karen descent affected by multiple bone fractures.

Red-flag signs and symptoms are commonly used as justification for neuroimaging; however, evidence on its diagnostic values is limited. The study aims to identify diagnostic values of red-flags and develop a clinical prediction score to help improve the diagnostic yield of neuroimaging.

DNH is usually suspected when multiple hemangiomas are found on the skin of the baby. We hereby present an interesting case in a newborn whose diagnosis was made from multiple intracranial, hepatic, and intramuscular hemangiomas, but with a single and unusual cutaneous manifestation over the right ankle.

The decision for surgical intervention for craniotomy is dependent on the injury type and the patient's neurologic exam. The potential subtypes of intracranial hemorrhage that may necessitate surgical intervention include subdural hemorrhage, epidural hemorrhage, and intraparenchymal hemorrhage.

CT examination is widely preferred for urgent ICH diagnosis, which enables the fast identification and detection of ICH regions. However, the use of it requires the clinical interpretation by experts to identify the subtypes of ICH.
