The purpose of this pilot study was to assess the feasibility of Cadence contrast pulse sequencing ultrasound to predict clinical and angiogenic tumor response in dogs undergoing chemotherapy. Contrast ultrasound facilitated visualization of bladder tumors but failed to identify a straightforward relationship between ultrasound measures and clinical outcome.

MIC: Breast Cancer Multi-label Diagnostic Framework Based on Multi-modal Fusion Interaction.
J Imaging Inform Med
January 2025
School of Information Engineering and Automation, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming, Yunnan, China.
The automated diagnosis of low-resolution and difficult-to-recognize breast ultrasound images through multi-modal fusion holds significant clinical value. However, prevailing fusion methods predominantly rely on image modalities, neglecting the textual pathology information, and only benign and malignant diagnosis of breast tumors is not satisfying for clinical applications. Consequently, this paper proposes a novel multi-modal fusion interactive diagnostic framework, termed the MIC framework, to achieve the multi-label classification of breast cancer, namely benign-malignant classification and breast imaging reporting and data system (BI-RADS) 3, 4a, 4b, 4c, and 5 gradings.

About 50% of all cancers carry a mutation in p53 that impairs its tumor suppressor function. The p53 missense mutation p53 (p53 in mice) is a hotspot mutation in various cancer types. Therefore, monoclonal antibodies selectively targeting clinically relevant mutations like p53 could prove immensely value.

Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Neuroradiology, University Medical Center Göttingen, Robert-Koch-Straße 40, 37075, Göttingen, Germany.
While MRI has become the imaging modality of choice for intracranial meningiomas, no radiologic reporting guidance exists to date that relies on a systematic collection of information relevant to the core medical disciplines involved in the management of these patients. To address this issue, a nationwide expert survey was conducted in Germany. A literature-based catalog of potential reporting elements for MRI examinations of meningioma patients was developed interdisciplinarily.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFVisual attribution in medical imaging seeks to make evident the diagnostically-relevant components of a medical image, in contrast to the more common detection of diseased tissue deployed in standard machine vision pipelines (which are less straightforwardly interpretable/explainable to clinicians). We here present a novel generative visual attribution technique, one that leverages latent diffusion models in combination with domain-specific large language models, in order to generate normal counterparts of abnormal images. The discrepancy between the two hence gives rise to a mapping indicating the diagnostically-relevant image components.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of time-dependent diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (td-dMRI) and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI)-based kinetic heterogeneity in differentiating suspicious breast lesions (categorised as Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System 4 or 5).
Methods: This prospective study included 51 females with suspicious breast lesions who underwent preoperative breast MRI, including DCE-MRI and td-dMRI. Six kinetic parameters, namely peak, persistent, plateau, washout component, predominant curve type, and heterogeneity, were extracted from the DCE series using MATLAB and SPM software.
