Salivary gland ultrasonography is a promising tool for the evaluation of Sjögren’s syndrome. Cumulative data suggest that ultrasonography is comparable with older imaging modalities such as sialography and scintigraphy. However, certain issues remain to be addressed before it can be integrated into current or future classification systems.

Precise and effective management of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MIRI) is still a formidable challenge in clinical practice. Additionally, real-time monitoring of drug aggregation in the MIRI region remains an open question. Herein, a drug delivery system, hesperadin and ICG assembled in PLGA-Se-Se-PEG-IMTP (HI@PSeP-IMTP), is designed to deliver hesperadin and ICG to the MIRI region for in vivo optical imaging tracking and to ameliorate MIRI.

Three-photon fluorescence (3PF) microscopy encounters significant challenges in biological research and clinical applications, primarily due to the limited availability of high-performance probes. We took a shortcut by exploring the excellent 3PF property of berberine hydrochloride (BH), a clinically utilized drug derived from the traditional Chinese medicine, Coptis. Capitalizing on its renal metabolism characteristics, we employed BH for in vivo 3PF microscopic imaging of the mouse kidney.

Background: The study aimed to investigate the reduction of hematoma risk during MRI-guided breast biopsies by evaluating position-dependent intervention parameters and characteristics of the target lesion.
Materials And Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 252 percutaneous MRI-guided breast biopsies performed at a single center between January 2013 and December 2023. Two groups were built depending on the severity of relative hematoma formation (using a cut-off ≤ 7.

This review assesses the primary neuroimaging techniques used to evaluate Parkinson's disease (PD) - a neurological condition characterized by gradual dopamine-producing nerve cell degeneration. The neuroimaging techniques explored include positron emission tomography (PET), single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). These modalities offer varying degrees of insights into PD pathophysiology, diagnostic accuracy, specificity by way of exclusion of other Parkinsonian syndromes, and monitoring of disease progression.

A 61-year-old male presented with hematemesis and melena. Biopsy and immunohistochemistry confirmed mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma in the posterior wall of the gastric antrum, prompting further evaluation with F-fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT). In addition to elevated uptake in the gastric antrum, F-FDG PET/CT showed diffuse uptake in multiple bone marrow, initially suspected to indicate bone marrow involvement by lymphoma.
