The authors summarize the pathomechanism of the myelination process, the clinical, radiological and the genetical aspects of the leukodystrophies, as in 18q deletion syndrome, adrenoleukodysrtophy, metachromatic leukodystrophy, Pelizaeus-Merzbacher leukodystrophy, Alexander disease and olivo-ponto-cerebellar atrophy (OPCA).

Evaluation of a Deep Learning Denoising Algorithm for Dose Reduction in Whole-Body Photon-Counting CT Imaging: A Cadaveric Study.

Acad Radiol

January 2025

Department of Radiology, University Hospital Tuebingen, Hoppe-Seyler-Str. 3, 72076 Tuebingen, Germany (R.D., J.M.B., B.S., J.M., S.G., P.K., S.W., J.H., K.N., S.A., A.B.).

Rationale And Objectives: Photon Counting CT (PCCT) offers advanced imaging capabilities with potential for substantial radiation dose reduction; however, achieving this without compromising image quality remains a challenge due to increased noise at lower doses. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a deep learning (DL)-based denoising algorithm in maintaining diagnostic image quality in whole-body PCCT imaging at reduced radiation levels, using real intraindividual cadaveric scans.

Materials And Methods: Twenty-four cadaveric human bodies underwent whole-body CT scans on a PCCT scanner (NAEOTOM Alpha, Siemens Healthineers) at four different dose levels (100%, 50%, 25%, and 10% mAs).

Efficacy and safety of chemotherapy combined with iodine-125 seed brachytherapy for intermediate and advanced oncogenic driver gene-negative non-small cell lung cancer.

Brachytherapy

January 2025

Department of Radiology, The First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China (USTC), Division of life Sciences and Medicine, University of Science and Technology, Hefei, Anhui 230022, PR China. Electronic address:

Purpose: To compare the effectiveness and safety of CT-guided iodine-125 seed brachytherapy in conjunction with chemotherapy against chemotherapy alone for the management of intermediate and advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) lacking oncogenic driving genes.

Methods And Materials: Retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data from 128 patients diagnosed with intermediate and advanced non-small cell lung cancer who received iodine-125 combined with chemotherapy or chemotherapy alone due to the absence of oncogenic driver gene mutations. The patients in two groups were compared at 6-month follow-up for objective remission rate (ORR), Disease control rate (DCR), local progression-free survival (LPFS), overall survival (OS), clinical symptom improvement, and adverse events.

Chapter 4: DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS of PRIMARY HYPERPARATHYROIDISM.

Ann Endocrinol (Paris)

January 2025

Service d'Endocrinologie, Diabétologie, Métabolisme, Nutrition; Hôpital Huriez, CHU Lille; Inserm U1190, Institut Génomique Européen pour le Diabète, Université de Lille, F-59000 Lille, France. Electronic address:

The differential diagnosis of primary hyperparathyroidism can be considered clinically, biologically and radiologically. Clinically, primary hyperparathyroidism should be suspected in case of diffuse pain, renal lithiasis, osteoporosis, repeated fracture, cognitive or psychiatric disorder, or disturbance of consciousness. Nevertheless, the differential diagnosis of primary hyperparathyroidism is mainly biological, particularly in atypical forms, which must be differentiated from hypercalcemia with hypocalciuria or non- elevated PTH on the one hand, and from normo-calcemia with elevated PTH, hypophosphatemia or hypercalciuria on the other.

To evaluate the clinical value of multi-slice spiral CT in preoperative TNN staging and postoperative recurrence and metastasis of colon carcinoma, and to provide evidence for the reliability of CT in the diagnosis of colon carcinoma METHODS: 89 patients with colon carcinoma diagnosed pathologically in our hospital from July 2020 to April 2023 were selected retrospectively. The preoperative TNN staging and postoperative recurrence and metastasis were monitored by 64 row 128 layer spiral CT. The diagnostic coincidence rate, TNM staging coincidence rate and postoperative recurrent TNM staging accuracy were evaluated according to the pathological diagnosis RESULTS: The diagnostic coincidence rate of multi-slice spiral CT was 97.
