The speckle-based scanning method for x-ray phase-contrast imaging is implemented with a liquid-metal-jet source. Using the two-dimensional scanning technique, the phase shift introduced by the object is retrieved in both transverse orientations, and the limitations on spatial resolution inherent to the speckle-tracking technique are avoided. This method opens up possibilities of new high-resolution multimodal applications for lab-based phase-contrast x-ray imaging.

Quantification of 3D microstructures in Achilles tendons during in situ loading reveals anisotropic fiber response.
Acta Biomater
January 2025
Department of Biomedical Engineering, Lund University, Box 118, 221 00 Lund, Sweden.
While the number of studies investigating Achilles tendon pathologies has grown exponentially, more research is needed to gain a better understanding of the complex relation between its hierarchical structure, mechanical response, and failure. At the microscale, collagen fibers are, with some degree of dispersion, primarily aligned along the principal loading direction. However, during tension, rearrangements and reorientations of these fibers are believed to occur.

Aim: To investigate the value of the LR-5, which is based on hepatobiliary phase (HBP) hypointensity, for small hepatocellular carcinoma (sHCC) using LI-RADS v2018 criteria.
Materials And Methods: From January 2015 to December 2021 in institution 1, and from January 2019 to February 2022 in institution 2, 239 patients at high risk for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) underwent contrast-enhanced MRI. Two radiologists independently evaluated the imaging features and classified them according to LI-RADS v2018 criteria, calculating the diagnostic performance of LR-5 based on consensus data.
Accelerated High-resolution T1- and T2-weighted Breast MRI with Deep Learning Super-resolution Reconstruction.

Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, University Hospital Bonn, Venusberg-Campus 1, 53127 Bonn, Germany (N.M., C.L., A.S., A.I., T.D., L.B., D.K., C.C.P., A.L., J.A.L.).
Rationale And Objectives: To assess the performance of an industry-developed deep learning (DL) algorithm to reconstruct low-resolution Cartesian T1-weighted dynamic contrast-enhanced (T1w) and T2-weighted turbo-spin-echo (T2w) sequences and compare them to standard sequences.
Materials And Methods: Female patients with indications for breast MRI were included in this prospective study. The study protocol at 1.
Bolus-Tracked Biphasic Contrast-Enhanced CT Imaging Following Microwave Liver Ablation Improves Ablation Zone Conspicuity and Semi-automatic Segmentation Quality.

Purpose: Contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) may be performed immediately following microwave liver ablation for assessment of ablative margins. However, practices and protocols vary among institutions. Here, we compare a standardized bolus-tracked biphasic CECT protocol and compare this with a single venous phase fixed delay protocol for ablation zone (AZ) assessment.

Introduction: The venous outflow profile (VOP) is a crucial yet often overlooked aspect affecting stroke outcomes. It plays a major role in the physiopathology of acute cerebral ischemia, as it accounts for both the upstream arterial collaterals and cerebral microperfusion. This enables it to circumvent the limitations of various arterial collateral evaluation systems, which often fail to consider impaired autoregulation and its impact on cerebral blood flow at the microcirculatory levels.
