Aims: To develop a transformer-based generative adversarial network (trans-GAN) that can generate synthetic material decomposition images from single-energy CT (SECT) for real-time detection of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) after endovascular thrombectomy.
Materials: We retrospectively collected data from two hospitals, consisting of 237 dual-energy CT (DECT) scans, including matched iodine overlay maps, virtual noncontrast, and simulated SECT images. These scans were randomly divided into a training set (n = 190) and an internal validation set (n = 47) in a 4:1 ratio based on the proportion of ICH.

Purpose: Actinium-225 labeled prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) targeted radionuclide therapy has emerged as a potential treatment option in the management of men with metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). This study investigated molecular imaging-derived parameters and compared imaging response of lesions categorized by tumor site.
Methods: Men with mCRPC treated with [225Ac]Ac-J591 from 2017 to 2022 at our center on two prospective trials (NCT03276572 and NCT04506567) with pre- and post-treatment [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging studies available were included.

COVID-19 disease, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, has significantly altered modern society and lifestyles. We investigated its impact on brain glucose metabolism by meta-analyzing existing studies that utilized 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) scans of the brain. We conducted a systematic search of MEDLINE and EMBASE databases from inception to August 2024 for English-language publications using the keywords "positron emission tomography", and "COVID-19".

Background: The internal venous system of the brain is a crucial anatomical landmark during accesses to the third ventricle through the foramen of Monro. Many classifications based on radiological assessment of the system have been developed, but they tend to be descriptive and do not highlight favorable anatomical variants. The aim of our study was to create a system based on morphometric measurements to facilitate preoperative decision-making regarding access to third ventricle tumors.

Background: The degenerative spondylosis can cause the difficulty in maintaining sagittal and coronal alignment of spine, and X-ray parameters are the gold standard to analyze the malalignment. This study aimed to develop a new 3D full body scanner to analyze the spinal balance and compare it to X-ray parameters.
Methods: Ninety-seven adult participants who suffer degenerative spondylosis underwent 3D full body scanning, whole spine X-rays, clinical questionnaires and body composition analyses.
