The advent of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is one of the most widely anticipated advances in the care of patients with severe aortic stenosis. This procedure is unique in many ways, one of which is the need for a multimodality imaging team-based approach throughout the continuum of the care of TAVR patients. Pre-procedural planning, intra-procedural implantation optimization, and long-term follow-up of patients undergoing TAVR require the expert use of various imaging modalities, each of which has its own strengths and limitations. Divided into 3 sections (pre-procedural, intraprocedural, and long-term follow-up), this review offers a single source for expert opinion and evidence-based guidance on how to incorporate the various modalities at each step in the care of a TAVR patient. Although much has been learned in the short span of time since TAVR was introduced, recommendations are offered for clinically relevant research that will lead to refinement of best practice strategies for incorporating multimodality imaging into TAVR patient care.

Incisional PSMA PET/CT-positive recurrences in prostate cancer- is there an implication on clinical care?
Clin Exp Metastasis

Oligorecurrent prostate cancer (PCa) can be treated with metastasis-directed therapy (MDT), which may be performed using radioguided surgery (RGS) as an experimental approach. These procedures have shown promising outcomes, largely due to the high lesion detection rate of positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT). We present a case series of patients who underwent RGS following robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP).

Background: Pathological grade is a critical determinant of clinical outcomes and decision-making of follicular lymphoma (FL). This study aimed to develop a deep learning model as a digital biopsy for the non-invasive identification of FL grade.
Methods: This study retrospectively included 513 FL patients from five independent hospital centers, randomly divided into training, internal validation, and external validation cohorts.
Multimodal Artificial Intelligence Model for Prediction of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Shrinkage After Endovascular Repair ( the ART in EVAR study).
J Endovasc Ther

Department of Vascular Surgery, Rijnstate, Arnhem, The Netherlands.
Purpose: The goal of the study described in this protocol is to build a multimodal artificial intelligence (AI) model to predict abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) shrinkage 1 year after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR).
Methods: In this retrospective observational multicenter study, approximately 1000 patients will be enrolled from hospital records of 5 experienced vascular centers. Patients will be included if they underwent elective EVAR for infrarenal AAA with initial assisted technical success and had imaging available of the same modality preoperatively and at 1-year follow-up (CTA-CTA or US-US).
MRI-based intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics for assessing deep myometrial invasion in patients with early-stage endometrioid adenocarcinoma.

Department of MRI, The First People's Hospital of Yunnan Province, The Affiliated Hospital of Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming, Yunnan, China.
Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics models for predicting deep myometrial invasion (DMI) of early-stage endometrioid adenocarcinoma (EAC).
Methods: The data of 459 EAC patients from three centers were retrospectively collected. Radiomics features were extracted separately from the intratumoral and peritumoral regions expanded by 0 mm, 5 mm, and 10 mm on unimodal and multimodal MRI.
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in patients with suspected myocarditis from immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy - A real-world observational study.

Department of Cardiology and Vascular Medicine, West German Heart and Vascular Center, University Hospital Essen, Germany.
Background And Aims: Cardiotoxicity from immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy is a challenge in clinical practice, and the assessment of ICI-related myocarditis (ICI-M) is often complicated by a variable phenotype. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) is used frequently, but evidence is poor. Here, we aim to assess the role of CMR in the assessment of suspected ICI-M in a real-world clinical setting.
