Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography is a reliable way to assess peripheral vascular disease. This article reviews the basic physics behind this technique and discusses our institution's experience with regard to the clinical role, recent advances in image acquisition and use of contrast agents. Problems that can affect image quality and interpretation are also highlighted.

Concomitant Right Atrial Hemangioma Resection With LVAD Implantation: First-in-Human Experience.
JACC Case Rep
December 2024
Department of Cardiology, Medipol University Faculty of Medicine, Istanbul, Turkey.
Cardiac hemangiomas are exceedingly rare, comprising only 5% to 10% of benign cardiac tumors. We report a patient with a large right atrial mass and end-stage heart failure with severe left ventricular dysfunction. Echocardiography revealed a mass obstructing tricuspid inflow.

Brats-Toolkit and DeepBraTumIA generally provide accurate segmentations, particularly for the most common round-shaped or well-demarked tumors, where: (1) gross tumor segmentation correctly includes necrosis and contrast enhanced tumor in 100% and 97.

Accurate imaging evaluations of pre- and post-treatment of cardiovascular diseases are pivotal for effective clinical interventions and improved patient outcomes. However, current imaging methods lack real-time monitoring capabilities with a high contrast and resolution during treatments. This study introduces PEGylated ultrasmall iron oxide nanoparticles (PUSIONPs), which have undergone comprehensive safety evaluations, boasting an value of 6.

January 2025
Pathology Department, Xuanhan County People's Hospital, Dazhou 636150, Sichuan Province, China.
Background: Pancreatic cancer remains one of the most lethal malignancies worldwide, with a poor prognosis often attributed to late diagnosis. Understanding the correlation between pathological type and imaging features is crucial for early detection and appropriate treatment planning.
Aim: To retrospectively analyze the relationship between different pathological types of pancreatic cancer and their corresponding imaging features.
Radiomic signatures of brain metastases on MRI: utility in predicting pathological subtypes of lung cancer.
Transl Cancer Res
December 2024
Department of Radiology, Shanghai Chest Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, School of Medicine, Shanghai, China.
Background: The pathological sub-classification of lung cancer is crucial in diagnosis, treatment and prognosis for patients. Quick and timely identification of pathological subtypes from imaging examinations rather than histological tests could help guiding therapeutic strategies. The aim of the study is to construct a non-invasive radiomics-based model for predicting the subtypes of lung cancer on brain metastases (BMs) from multiple magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences.
