We describe a case of neuro-Behcet's disease (NBD) characterized by recurrent attacks of neurologic deficit. T2-weighted images showed a high signal intensity lesion with extensive edema in the right thalamolenticular region, midbrain, and pons as well as the cerebral white matter. After a relapse of the disease, MRI demonstrated a high signal intensity in the left thalamus, internal capsule, and midbrain. These MRI abnormalities showed marked resolution with steroid treatment. We observed sequential MRI findings in a patient with a relapsing-remitting form of NBD who had parenchymal CNS involvement, and we examined the correlation among the MRI findings and clinical features during the clinical course.

Background: The appropriateness of ablation for liver cancer patients meeting the Milan criteria remains controversial.
Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the long-term outcomes of MR-guided thermal ablation for HCC patients meeting the Milan criteria and develop a nomogram for predicting survival rates.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted from January 2009 to December 2021 at a single institution.

Background: Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a common therapy for many hematologic malignancies. While advances in transplant practice have improved cancer-specific outcomes, multiple and debilitating long term physical and psychologic effects remain. Patients undergoing allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (allo-BMT) are often critically ill at initial diagnosis and with necessary sequential treatments become increasingly frail and deconditioned.

Background: Atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH) is a benign proliferative breast lesion. Surgical excision of ADH is often recommended to rule out underlying malignant disease.
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the trends in ADH upgrade rates over time and identify the impact of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) use on upgrade rates.

The purpose of this study was to identify pediatric eosinophilic fasciitis, which is an extremely rare condition, in order to describe their clinical, paraclinical, and therapeutic characteristics. We made a call for observations via societies for pediatric rheumatology in France and surrounding countries and collected clinical and paraclinical data of the cases fulfilling the diagnostic criteria. Eight patients under 18 years of age with confirmed eosinophilic fasciitis followed between April 2004 and July 2022 in France, Germany, Italy, and Spain were included.

This study investigates post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) by utilizing spectral dynamic causal modeling (spDCM) to examine changes in effective connectivity (EC) within the default mode, executive control, dorsal attention, and salience networks. Forty-one PSCI patients and 41 demographically matched healthy controls underwent 3D-T1WI and resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging on a 3.0T MRI.
