Apparent diffusion coefficient values in differentiating benign and malignant thoracic masses in children and young adults.
Acta Radiol
January 2025
Department of Radiology, Research Institute of Radiological Science, Severance Hospital, Yonsei University of College of Medicine, Seoul, Republic of Korea.
Background: In children and young adults, tumors in the chest and thoracic wall exhibit a wide variety of types, making it challenging to differentiate between benign and malignant cases before invasive histopathological examination.
Purpose: To evaluate the utility of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) for discriminating malignant thoracic masses in children and young adults.
Material And Methods: This retrospective study included chest magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans in patients aged <30 years.
Predicting Neoplastic Gallbladder Polyps: The Role of Current Surgical Indications and Preoperative Images.
Korean J Gastroenterol
January 2025
Department of Radiology, St. Vincent's Hospital, College of Medicine, The Catholic University of Korea, Seoul, Korea.
Background/aims: Cholecystectomy for gallbladder (GB) polyps is performed primarily based on preoperative images. This study examined the accuracy of surgical indications commonly used in clinical practice for detecting neoplastic polyps and investigated further clues for predicting neoplastic polyps.
Methods: This retrospective study included 385 patients who underwent a cholecystectomy for GB polyps.
Monocyte STAT1 phosphorylation and treatment response of JAK inhibitors in chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis.
Pediatr Rheumatol Online J
January 2025
Department of Pediatrics, Graduate School of Medical Sciences, Kyushu University, 3-1-1 Maidashi, Higashi-Ku, Fukuoka, 812-8582, Japan.
Background: Chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) is a rare autoinflammatory disease of unknown cause, predominantly affecting teens and young adults. The early diagnosis and management are challenging due to the lack of reliable diagnostic markers and the occasional intractable cases despite conventional anti-inflammatory treatments. Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors have recently shown potential utility; however, reports on their use for pediatric patients with CNO remain limited, and no established biomarkers exist to monitor disease activity.

Int J Cardiovasc Imaging
January 2025
Department of Clinical Radiology, AHEPA University Hospital of Thessaloniki, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Thessaloniki, Greece.
The term acute aortic syndrome (AAS) refers to a range of different entities, including dissection, intramural haematoma and penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer. Patients with chronic renal disease and particularly those with dominant polycystic kidney disease are susceptible to this pathology, given the underlying renal arteriopathy and hypertension. Imaging plays a crucial role in diagnosing, grading and guiding management of these patients, with computed tomography angiography (CTA) being on the frontline.

J Vasc Interv Radiol
January 2025
Department of Diagnostic Imaging, Faculty of Medicine, Hokkaido University, N-15, W-7, Kita-ku, Sapporo, Hokkaido 060-8638, Japan; Global Center for Biomedical Science and Engineering, Faculty of Medicine, Hokkaido University, N-14, W-5, Kita-ku, Sapporo, Hokkaido 060-8648, Japan.
This study aimed to examine the effect of simulation training using a three-dimensional (3D)-printed patient-specific vascular model on the advanced vascular catheterization skills of experienced interventional radiologists (IRs). Two specific anatomic types of 3D-printed patient-specific models from two patients with challenging celiac axis arterial anatomy were constructed. The Global Rating Scale of Endovascular Performance (GRS-EP) was used to evaluate vascular insertion skills.
