Background: Patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) have different sites of pancreatic involvement. The aim of this study was to investigate the differences in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings and clinical features of different sites of involvement (subtypes) in AP, with a view to complement and complete the classification of AP based on anatomical imaging features.

Methods: We consecutively collected data from inpatients with AP from January 2018 to October 2022 at a tertiary care hospital.

Article Synopsis
  • This study aimed to use a two-photon microscope excitation Airy beam to create detailed 3D images of intrahepatic bile ducts in mice with bile duct ligation (BDL) and human patients with biliary atresia (BA).
  • Ten BDL mice showed symptoms like jaundice and weight loss, with liver tissues sampled after 10 days, while 16 BA patients underwent either liver transplantation or Kasai portoenterostomy (KPE).
  • The imaging revealed significant bile duct widening and hyperplasia in BDL mice and disorganized bile ducts in BA patients, particularly those who had liver transplants.

Quantifying morphologic variations as an alternate to standard response criteria for unresectable primary liver tumors after checkpoint inhibition therapy.

Radiol Med

December 2024

Center for Interventional Oncology, Radiology and Imaging Sciences, Clinical Center, National Institutes of Health, 10 Center Drive, Bethesda, MD, 20892, USA.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of quantifying morphologic changes in tumors during immunotherapy, as a reflection of response or survival.

Methods And Materials: A retrospective single-center analysis was performed in patients with unresectable liver cancer previously enrolled in clinical trials combining immunotherapy (tremelimumab ± durvalumab) and locoregional treatment (either ablation or transarterial chemoembolization). Conventional response (RECIST 1.

Introduction: No instruments are available to predict preoperatively the risk of posthepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) in HCC patients. The aim was to predict the occurrence of PHLF preoperatively by radiomics and clinical data through machine-learning algorithms.

Materials And Methods: Clinical data and 3-phases CT scans were retrospectively collected among 13 Italian centres between 2008 and 2022.

Objective: To establish a classification system which differentiates cystic intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct (cystic IPNB) from hepatic mucinous cystic tumors (MCN) based on their radiological difference.

Methods: A total of 75 patients pathologically diagnosed as MCN and IPNB in two major hospitals from 2015 to 2024 were enrolled. Radiological features were recorded and compared between these two tumors.
