AI Article Synopsis

  • A specialized reconstruction method combining low rank and sparse techniques was developed to accelerate dynamic 2D and 3D hyperpolarized C MRI using balanced steady-state free precession sequence.
  • The methods were validated with in vivo data from normal rats and tumor-bearing mice, allowing for up to four-fold acceleration in isotropic 3D dynamic acquisitions and two-fold acceleration in 2D dynamic acquisitions.
  • This acceleration enabled detailed visualization of the biodistribution of various compounds, like [2-C]pyruvate and [1-C]lactate, in critical organs and tumors, along with the calculation of high-resolution T maps.

Article Abstract

Acceleration of dynamic 2D (T Mapping) and 3D hyperpolarized C MRI acquisitions using the balanced steady-state free precession sequence was achieved with a specialized reconstruction method, based on the combination of low rank plus sparse and local low rank reconstructions. Methods were validated using both retrospectively and prospectively undersampled in vivo data from normal rats and tumor-bearing mice. Four-fold acceleration of 1-2 mm isotropic 3D dynamic acquisitions with 2-5 s temporal resolution and two-fold acceleration of 0.25-1 mm 2D dynamic acquisitions was achieved. This enabled visualization of the biodistribution of [2-C]pyruvate, [1-C]lactate, [C, N]urea, and HP001 within heart, kidneys, vasculature, and tumor, as well as calculation of high resolution T maps.

Background: For radiotherapy of head and neck cancer (HNC) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays a pivotal role due to its high soft tissue contrast. Moreover, it offers the potential to acquire functional information through diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) with the potential to personalize treatment. The aim of this study was to acquire repetitive DWI during the course of online adaptive radiotherapy on an 1.

Background & Aim: Metabolic and cardiovascular health outcomes are strongly influenced by diet. Dietary habits established in early childhood may persist into adulthood. This study aimed to examine the association between dietary patterns at both 2 and 8 years of age, explaining the maximum variability of high- and low-quality fats, sugars, and fibre, and cardiometabolic markers at age 8 years.

Introduction: With high incidence and mortality rates, lung cancer is now one of the most common cancers in the world. The 5-year survival rate of lung cancer patients is very low, and predicting the prognosis of lung cancer patients and using it to develop treatment strategies and interventions is important for prolonging the survival time of patients. Folate metabolism involves various aspects such as methylation of DNA, RNA, proteins, lipids, etc.

Background: There are little available data about the impact of geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) on clinical outcomes following endovascular therapy (EVT) in chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) regarding the severities of renal dysfunction (RD).

Aims: The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of GNRI on clinical outcomes following EVT in CLTI regarding the severities of RD.

Methods: We enrolled 705 consecutive CLTI cases treated with EVT between January 2010 and December 2019 at our hospital.
