Many articles have discussed the anatomy and pathology of the orbits. Although this area is exquisitely visualized via computed tomography, the bulk of the visual apparatus lies behind the optic canal. A variety of pathologic conditions will manifest themselves by changes in the visual fields. This article demonstrates the normal anatomy of the visual pathways within the brain by CT scanning and correlates various changes that cause visual field defects.

Purpose: To provide updated guidance regarding neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) and primary cytoreductive surgery (PCS) among patients with stage III-IV epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer (epithelial ovarian cancer [EOC]).
Methods: A multidisciplinary Expert Panel convened and updated the systematic review.
Results: Sixty-one studies form the evidence base.

Advanced cardiac imaging modalities have revolutionized the field of cardiovascular medicine, offering invaluable tools for both diagnosis and the management of a wide spectrum of cardiovascular diseases. These imaging methods, including echocardiography, cardiac computed tomography (CT), computed tomography angiography (CTA), cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), nuclear imaging, and fluoroscopy, offer various approaches to evaluate both the structure and function of the heart. This article provides an overview of imaging modalities for primary care physicians, highlighting their types, advantages, limitations and clinical uses.

Purpose: Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a well described and potentially fatal complication of trastuzumab-deruxtecan (T-DXd). It is currently unknown if specific monitoring is beneficial in the early detection of ILD in these patients. We describe the efficacy and feasibility of a novel ILD monitoring protocol in breast cancer patients treated with T-DXd at our institution.

Objectives: This study analyzed the differences in the upper airway of patients with skeletal Class III high-angle malocclusion with and without mandibular deviation, and further investigated whether there are differences in the changes in upper airway space after orthognathic surgery between the two groups.
Materials And Methods: 15 patients with skeletal Class III high-angle malocclusion and mandibular deviation, and 15 patients without mandibular deviation were selected to explore the impact of mandibular deviation on the upper airway. Additionally, 16 patients with mandibular deviation undergoing orthodontic-orthognathic combined treatment, and 13 patients without mandibular deviation, were selected to investigate the differences in the changes in upper airway space after orthognathic surgery between the two groups.
Objectives: Combining Computed Tomography (CT) intuitive anatomical features with Three-Dimensional (3D) CT multimodal radiomic imaging features to construct a model for assessing the aggressiveness of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs) prior to surgery.
Methods: This study involved 242 patients, randomly assigned to training (170) and validation (72) cohorts. Preoperative CT and 3D CT radiomic features were used to develop a model predicting pNETs aggressiveness.
