We selected several "imaging pearls" presented during the Movement Disorder Society (MDS) Video Challenge for this review. While the event, as implicated by its name, was video-centered, we would like to emphasize the important role of imaging in making the correct diagnosis. We divided this anthology into two parts: genetic and acquired disorders. Genetic cases described herein were organized by the inheritance pattern and the focus was put on the imaging findings and differential diagnoses. Despite the overlapping phenotypes, certain described disorders have pathognomonic MRI brain findings that would provide either the "spot" diagnosis or result in further investigations leading to the diagnosis. Despite this, the diagnosis is often challenging with a broad differential diagnosis, and hallmark findings may be present for only a limited time.

Importance: An increasing number of older adults are undergoing surgery. Older adults face significant challenges throughout the spectrum of perioperative care. No frameworks exist to support primary care clinicians in helping older adults navigate perioperative care beyond preoperative medical clearance.

Purpose: This scoping review explored the nature and challenges of transnational family caregiving. International migration and global aging have resulted in growing instances of transnational family caregiving, which involves providing care for older adults across national borders. However, little is known about the realities of such caregiving.

Clinical metaproteomics reveals host-microbiome interactions underlying diseases. However, challenges to this approach exist. In particular, the characterization of microbial proteins present in low abundance relative to host proteins is difficult.

Non-invasive assessment of pulmonary nodule malignancy remains a critical challenge in lung cancer diagnosis. Traditional methods often lack precision in differentiating benign from malignant nodules, particularly in the early stages. This study introduces an approach using multifractal spectrum analysis to quantitatively evaluate pulmonary nodule characteristics.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is described as a group of highly malignant primary brain tumors and stands as one of the most lethal malignancies. The genetic and cellular characteristics of GBM have been a focal point of ongoing research, revealing that it is a group of heterogeneous diseases with variations in RNA expression, DNA methylation, or cellular composition. Despite the wealth of molecular data available, the lack of transferable pre-clinic models has limited the application of this information to disease classification rather than treatment stratification.
