Screening of asymptomatic average-risk patients for presence of colon cancer and early detection in precursor stages is of great interest to general population. Comprehensive evaluation of symptomatic or high-risk patients represents another important clinical focus. Available techniques for total colon imaging, rectal cancer staging and the role of positron emission tomography are discussed.

Updates on Methods for Body Composition Analysis: Implications for Clinical Practice.
Curr Obes Rep
January 2025
Metabolism and Body Composition, Pennington Biomedical Research Center, Baton Rouge, LA, 70808, USA.
Background: Recent technological advances have introduced novel methods for measuring body composition, each with unique benefits and limitations. The choice of method often depends on the trade-offs between accuracy, cost, participant burden, and the ability to measure specific body composition compartments.
Objective: To review the considerations of cost, accuracy, portability, and participant burden in reference and emerging body composition assessment methods, and to evaluate their clinical applicability.
Ovarian cancer staging and follow-up: updated guidelines from the European Society of Urogenital Radiology female pelvic imaging working group.

January 2025
Department of Radiology, Montpellier Research Center Institute, PINKCC Laboratory, Montpellier, France.
Objective: To provide up-to-date European Society of Urogenital Radiology (ESUR) guidelines for staging and follow-up of patients with ovarian cancer (OC).
Methods: Twenty-one experts, members of the female pelvis imaging ESUR subcommittee from 19 institutions, replied to 2 rounds of questionnaires regarding imaging techniques and structured reporting used for pre-treatment evaluation of OC patients. The results of the survey were presented to the other authors during the group's annual meeting.
Fracture Risk Assessment in the 2023 Osteoporosis Canada Guideline.

January 2025
Department of Medicine, McGill University, Montreal, QC, Canada.
Radiologists and other diagnostic imaging specialists play a pivotal role in the management of osteoporosis, a highly prevalent condition of reduced bone strength and increased fracture risk. Bone mineral density (BMD) measurement with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is a critical component of identifying individuals at high risk for fracture. Strategies to prevent fractures are consolidated in the Osteoporosis Canada clinical practice guideline which was updated in 2023.

January 2025
Division of Nuclear Medicine, St. Paul's Hospital, Vancouver, BC, Canada.
This practice guideline serves as an update to the Canadian Association of Radiologists' 2013 Technical Standards for Bone Mineral Densitometry Reporting. It aims to align bone mineral density testing and reporting practices in Canada with current clinical best practices, including guidelines from Osteoporosis Canada and the International Society for Clinical Densitometry. Key updates include the endorsement of both FRAX and CAROC tools for evaluating fracture risk, guidance for analyzing male patients and transgender patients, and provision of clinical management guidance of relevance to BMD reporting harmonized with that of Osteoporosis Canada.

Video frame interpolation (VFI) is a task that generates intermediate frames from two consecutive frames. Previous studies have employed two main approaches to extract the necessary information from both frames: pixel-level synthesis and flow-based methods. However, when synthesizing high-resolution videos using VFI, each approach has its limitations.
