Predictive factors of major deviation (>20 mm) between lesion sizes measured by magnetic resonance imaging and histology for invasive lobular breast cancer.

Objective: To identify factors predictive of high discordance (>20 mm) between lesion sizes measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and histology for invasive lobular breast cancer.

Materials And Methods: Data for all women with invasive lobular breast cancer (pure or associated with a component of invasive ductal carcinoma) between 1st January 2007 and 31st December 2016 were included in this study. Logistic regression analysis was performed to determine factors predictive of high discordance (underestimation/overestimation by >20 mm) between tumour sizes measured by MRI and histology for invasive lobular breast cancer.

Diagnostic performance of contrast-enhanced CT-scan in sinusoidal obstruction syndrome induced by chemotherapy of colorectal liver metastases: Radio-pathological correlation.

Purpose: Sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS) is a likely side effect of colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) chemotherapy. This study aimed to assess computed tomography scan (CT-scan) performance for SOS diagnosis for patients receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NC) prior to CRLM surgery, comparing obtained results with pathological gold standard.

Methods: Preoperative CT-scans of 67 patients who had received a NC prior to liver resection for CRLM from 2011 to 2016 were retrospectively analysed.
