Published: January 2021

Use of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) to aid in diagnosis, management, and prognosis of ischemic and nonischemic cardiomyopathy has advanced tremendously in the past several decades. These advances have expanded our understanding of both ischemic and nonischemic cardiomyopathies while also allowing for new avenues of diagnosis and treatment. This review summarizes key concepts of CMR technology and CMR use in the diagnosis and prognosis in ischemic, infiltrative, inflammatory, and other nonischemic cardiomyopathies and discusses the use of CMR in the patient presenting with ventricular arrhythmia with unclear diagnosis and advances in CMR in the management cardiomyopathy.

Optical techniques, such as functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), contain high potential for the development of non-invasive wearable systems for evaluating cerebral vascular condition in aging, due to their portability and ability to monitor real-time changes in cerebral hemodynamics. In this study, thirty-six healthy adults were measured by single channel fNIRS to explore differences between two age groups using machine learning (ML). The subjects, measured during functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) at Oulu University Hospital, were divided into young (age ≤ 32) and elderly (age ≥ 57) groups.

Background: This study aimed to explore the relationship of cervical tumor lesion location (CTLL) with bilateral parametrial involvement (PI) and pelvic lymph node metastasis (LNM).

Methods: The study retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathologic and imaging data of patients with cervical squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) retrieved from multiple centers. According to the CTLL, patients were allocated to three groups: a middle one third group, a unilaterally dominant group, and the entire-region group.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) combined with periorbital triamcinolone acetonide injection in treating thyroid eye disease (TED) patients with active extraocular muscle but low CAS. The retrospective observational study was conducted. A total of 156 eligible patients were selected from the TED patient database of the Ophthalmology Department of West China Hospital of Sichuan University.

We aimed to build a robust classifier for the MGMT methylation status of glioblastoma in multiparametric MRI. We focused on multi-habitat deep image descriptors as our basic focus. A subset of the BRATS 2021 MGMT methylation dataset containing both MGMT class labels and segmentation masks was used.
