Neuroimaging is a rapidly changing part of the care of children with central nervous system neoplasms. MR scanning, now a routine part of patient care, continues to advance, with new capabilities continuously developing. CT scanning, although often eclipsed by MRI, remains an essential imaging modality. The current state of the art, as well as new directions, are reviewed in this article.

University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, AL, USA.
Cross-sectional interventional radiology procedures can be performed using a range of techniques with approaches varying across institutions. One area in which practices for these procedures may differ is in the use of moderate sedation. This perspective discusses the pros and cons of using moderate sedation for deep organ biopsies commonly experienced in radiology departments.

Thyroid cancer, one of the most common endocrine tumors, generally has a favorable prognosis but remains a significant medical and societal concern due to its high incidence. Early diagnosis and treatment of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) significantly affect long-term outcomes, requiring the selection and application of appropriate initial treatments to improve prognosis and quality of life. Recent advances in technology and health information systems have enhanced our understanding of the molecular genetics of thyroid cancer, facilitating the identification of aggressive subgroups and enabling the accumulation of research on risk factors through big data.

Department of Forensic Medicine, Karnali Academy of Health Sciences, Chandannath, Jumla, 21200, Nepal.
Following the establishment of Nepal's first medical college in 1972, forensic medicine was introduced in 1978. To date, 25 medical colleges in the country have included forensic medicine as a compulsory subject in the undergraduate medical curriculum. Although this subject has been introduced into the medical curriculum, the outcome is unsatisfactory, as reflected by the poor medico-legal reports prepared by newly graduated medical students.

Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behavior, Radboud University, Thomas Van Aquinostraat 4, 6525, Nijmegen, The Netherlands.
Psychopathic traits and antisocial behavior show a well-documented relationship with decreased empathic processing. It has been proposed that a reduced own experience of pain leads to perceiving others' pain as less severe, which potentially facilitates exploitative, aggressive behavior towards others. We evaluated the link between psychopathic traits, experimental pain sensitivity and empathy for pain in a community sample (n = 74).
