We report on three-dimensional (3D) imaging of individual Gd dopant atoms in a thin (∼2.3 nm) foil of SrTiO3, using quantitative scanning transmission electron microscopy. Uncertainties in the depth positions of individual dopants are less than 1 unit cell. The overall dopant concentration measured from atom column intensities agrees quantitatively with electrical measurements. The method is applied to analyze the 3D arrangement of dopants within small clusters containing 4-5 Gd atoms.

Purpose: Identification of the molecular subtypes in breast cancer allows to optimize treatment strategies, but usually requires invasive needle biopsy. Recently, non-invasive imaging has emerged as promising means to classify them. Magnetic resonance imaging is often used for this purpose because it is three-dimensional and highly informative.

Blood flow velocity in the cerebral perforating arteries can be quantified in a two-dimensional plane with phase contrast magnetic imaging (2D PC-MRI). The velocity pulsatility index (PI) can inform on the stiffness of these perforating arteries, which is related to several cerebrovascular diseases. Currently, there is no open-source analysis tool for 2D PC-MRI data from these small vessels, impeding the usage of these measurements.

Purpose: Anatomical variations in the anterior choroidal artery (AChA) and/or the posterior cerebral artery (PCA) are rare. Hyperplastic AChA is an anatomical variant supplying both the AChA area and the PCA area. In accessory PCA, a hyperplastic AChA supplies part of the PCA territory.

Methods: This study involved 242 patients, randomly assigned to training (170) and validation (72) cohorts. Preoperative CT and 3D CT radiomic features were used to develop a model predicting pNETs aggressiveness.
