AI Article Synopsis

  • The essay presents a review of magnetic resonance images from the last 15 years that focus on intraventricular tumor-like lesions.
  • It discusses various types of lesions, including ependymoma, pilocytic astrocytoma, and others, highlighting their specific imaging characteristics.
  • The findings aim to aid in distinguishing these lesions from other intracranial anomalies through unique image patterns.

Article Abstract

The present essay is illustrated with magnetic resonance images obtained at the authors' institution over the past 15 years and discusses the main imaging findings of intraventricular tumor-like lesions (ependymoma, pilocytic astrocytoma, central neurocytoma, ganglioglioma, choroid plexus papilloma, primitive neuroectodermal tumors, meningioma, epidermoid tumor). Such lesions represent a subgroup of intracranial lesions with unique characteristics and some image patterns that may facilitate the differential diagnosis.

Purpose: Transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) is the initial staging procedure for new bladder cancers (BCs). For muscle-invasive bladder cancers (MIBCs), TURBT may delay definitive treatment. We investigated whether definitive treatment can be expedited for MIBC using flexible cystoscopic biopsy and multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) for initial staging.

Purpose: Perfusion modeling presents significant opportunities for imaging biomarker development in breast cancer but has historically been held back by the need for data beyond the clinical standard of care (SoC) and uncertainty in the interpretability of results. We aimed to design a perfusion model applicable to breast cancer SoC dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) series with results stable to low temporal resolution imaging, comparable with published results using full-resolution DCE-MRI, and correlative with orthogonal imaging modalities indicative of biophysical markers.

Methods: Subsampled high-temporal-resolution DCE-MRI series were run through our perfusion model and resulting fits were compared for consistency.

Specialization of the human hippocampal long axis revisited.

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A

January 2025

Department of Psychology, Center for Brain Science, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138.

The hippocampus possesses anatomical differences along its long axis. Here, we explored the functional specialization of the human hippocampal long axis using network-anchored precision functional MRI in two independent datasets (N = 11 and N = 9) paired with behavioral analysis (N = 266 and N = 238). Functional connectivity analyses demonstrated that the anterior hippocampus was preferentially correlated with a cerebral network associated with remembering, while the posterior hippocampus selectively contained a region correlated with a distinct network associated with behavioral salience.

The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Predicting Optic Neuritis Subtypes From Ocular Fundus Photographs.

J Neuroophthalmol

Background: Optic neuritis (ON) is a complex clinical syndrome that has diverse etiologies and treatments based on its subtypes. Notably, ON associated with multiple sclerosis (MS ON) has a good prognosis for recovery irrespective of treatment, whereas ON associated with other conditions including neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders or myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease is often associated with less favorable outcomes. Delay in treatment of these non-MS ON subtypes can lead to irreversible vision loss.

Monitoring technology for Cr(VI) adsorption and reduction by NMR spectroscopy.

Chem Commun (Camb)

January 2025

Physics Department & Shanghai Key Laboratory of Magnetic Resonance, School of Physics and Electronic Science, East China Normal University, North Zhongshan Road 3663, Shanghai 200062, P. R. China.

This study employs a low-field NMR (LF-NMR) method to investigate Cr(VI) adsorption and reduction in solid-liquid systems, focusing on three cellulose-based amine adsorbents. NMR revealed the effects of molecular structure on adsorption and reduction processes, providing insights into adsorbent design and mass transfer advantages for high-performance Cr(VI) adsorbents.
