Breast desmoid tumour is a rare type of benign breast disease that presents like malignancy. Current guidelines are based on limited evidence derived from case reports and small case series and recommend resection with microscopically-negative margin (R0). There is a high risk of recurrence despite negative surgical margins.

This study aimed to investigate the correlation between baseline MRI features and baseline carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) expression status in rectal cancer patients. A training cohort of 168 rectal cancer patients from Center 1 and an external validation cohort of 75 rectal cancer patients from Center 2 were collected. A nomogram was constructed based on the training cohort and validated using the external validation cohort to predict high baseline CEA expression in rectal cancer patients.

Objective: To determine the upgrade rate of exclusively MRI-detected benign papillomas in asymptomatic high-risk patients, patients with a history of cancer, or patients with known malignancy.
Methods: This IRB-approved retrospective study reviewed all breast MRI-guided biopsies yielding papilloma on pathology for all asymptomatic patients undergoing breast MRI for high-risk screening, newly diagnosed breast cancer, or a personal history of breast cancer. All cases were followed by excision or 2-year imaging follow-up.

Cerebral embolic protection (CEP) during transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged as an important tool in reducing stroke risk associated with this intervention. With the recent expansion of TAVR into lower-risk populations, the role of preventive strategies gained greater significance. Despite advancements in TAVR technologies, peri-procedural stroke remains a significant complication, with rates ranging between 2 and 5%.
