AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Purpose Of Review: Recent advancements in transcatheter valvular interventions have resulted in a growing demand for advanced cardiac imaging to help guide these procedures.
Recent Findings: Both echocardiography and multi-detector computed tomography have played essential roles in the maturation of transcatheter aortic valve replacement and are now building on these experiences and helping inform the nascent field of transcatheter mitral interventions. Advanced imaging is essential to aid in the diagnosis and determination of the mechanism of mitral regurgitation. In addition, they are integral to annular sizing, determination of the suitability of patient anatomy for specific devices and increasingly important in the determination of the risk of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and providing appropriate patient-specific fluoroscopic angulation in advance of the procedure.

Supracardiac type of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection: Diagnosis and demonstration by multidetector CT angiography.
Radiol Case Rep
February 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia Institute of Medical Sciences, Lucknow, India.
Pulmonary venous developmental anomalies have historically been evaluated using echocardiography and catheter-based angiography. In recent years, however, multidetector CT angiography (MDCTA) and MR angiography have become increasingly important tools for detailed characterization of these anomalies. This case report provides an in-depth review of the radiologic findings in a 15-year-old patient diagnosed with the supracardiac type of Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection (TAPVC).

Objective: Dual-layer spectral detector CT (DLCT) has several advantages in clinical practice, this study aims to reveal the clinical applications of DLCT in digestive system diseases.
Materials And Methods: We searched PubMed and Cochrane Reviews for articles published from January 1, 2010 to May 31, 2024, using the terms "dual-layer spectral detector CT" or "dual-layer CT" combined with "hepatic fat" or "hepatic fibrosis" "hepatocellular carcinoma" or "pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma" or "pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors" or "gastric cancer" or "colorectal cancer" or "Crohn's disease" or "bowel ischemia" or "acute abdominal conditions".
Results: DLCT consists of a top layer sensitive to lower-energy photons and a bottom layer sensitive to higher-energy photons.

Introduction: In the diagnostics of orthopedic diseases in the horse, diagnostic imaging often plays a decisive role. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging is used in both human and small animal medicine and becoming increasingly popular. To see whether CBCT imaging can be useful in the diagnosis of orthopedic diseases of the carpal region of the horse and to explore possible limitations we compared CBCT images with multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) images of the carpal region of equine cadaveric specimens.

Department of Medicine, Samsung Medical Center, Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine, Seoul, South Korea.
Background And Aim: Individuals with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) who are at an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) are critical to identify and manage. We aimed to assess whether the risk of CVD in patients with MASLD differed according to the type or number of cardiometabolic risk factors.
Methods: This longitudinal cohort study involved 5674 adults who underwent at least two health checkups between 2004 and 2021.

Rationale And Objectives: Clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) is a threatening complication in body and/or tail pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) receiving distal pancreatectomy (DP) and is difficult to predict preoperatively. We aimed to identify the role of baseline CT-based body composition analysis and extracellular volume (ECV) map in predicting the risk of CR-POPF preoperatively.
Materials And Methods: A total of 329 resectable PDAC patients were enrolled and underwent multiphasic contrast-enhanced CT.
