Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) plays an increasing role in the study of speech. This article reviews the MRI literature of anatomical imaging, imaging for acoustic modelling and dynamic imaging. It describes existing imaging techniques attempting to meet the challenges of imaging the upper airway during speech and examines the remaining hurdles and future research directions.

Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a self-limited, idiopathic, non-neoplastic disorder characterized by the proliferation of phagocytic histiocytes, which can mimic malignant lymphoproliferative disease. Cases of RDD most commonly present as bilateral painless cervical lymphadenopathy, with lesser involvement of the axilla, inguinal, and mediastinal lymph nodes. We present the case of a 62-year-old woman with a history of endometrial serous carcinoma who underwent evaluation at a dedicated breast imaging department after positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) revealed breast masses and axillary nodes with increased uptake of fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG).

Background And Aims: The laxative lubiprostone has been shown to decrease intestinal permeability. We aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of lubiprostone administered for 48 weeks in patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).
Approach And Results: A randomised placebo-controlled trial was conducted in a specialised MASLD outpatient clinic at the National Hepatology and Tropical Medicine Research Institute, Cairo, Egypt.

Objective: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) has been the primary treatment method for patients with local advanced breast cancer. A pathological complete response (pCR) to therapy correlates with better overall disease prognosis. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) have been widely used to monitor the response to NACT in breast cancer.

Objective: To assess the accuracy of three commercially available and one open-source deep learning (DL) solutions for automatic tooth segmentation in cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of patients with multiple dental impactions.
Materials And Methods: Twenty patients (20 CBCT scans) were selected from a retrospective cohort of individuals with multiple dental impactions. For each CBCT scan, one reference segmentation and four DL segmentations of the maxillary and mandibular teeth were obtained.

Objective: To investigate integrating an artificial intelligence (AI) system into diagnostic breast ultrasound (US) for improved performance.
Materials And Methods: Seventy suspicious breast mass lesions (53 malignant and 17 benign) from seventy women who underwent diagnostic breast US complemented with shear wave elastography, US-guided core needle biopsy and verified histopathology were enrolled. Two radiologists, one with 15 years of experience and the other with one year of experience, evaluated the images for breast imaging-reporting and data system (BI-RADS) scoring.
