Background: The aim of this study is to develop deep learning models based on F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomographic (F-FDG PET/CT) images for predicting individual epidermal growth factor receptor () mutation status in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD).
Methods: We enrolled 430 patients with non-small-cell lung cancer from two institutions in this study. The advanced Inception V3 model to predict EGFR mutations based on PET/CT images and developed CT, PET, and PET + CT models was used.

Objectives: The accurate assessment of lymph node metastasis (LNM) can facilitate clinical decision-making on radiotherapy or radical hysterectomy (RH) in cervical adenocarcinoma (AC)/adenosquamous carcinoma (ASC). This study aims to develop a deep learning radiomics nomogram (DLRN) to preoperatively evaluate LNM in cervical AC/ASC.
Materials And Methods: A total of 652 patients from a multicenter were enrolled and randomly allocated into primary, internal, and external validation cohorts.

Hub regions in the brain, recognized for their roles in ensuring efficient information transfer, are vulnerable to pathological alterations in neurodegenerative conditions, including Alzheimer's disease (AD). Computational simulations and animal experiments have hinted at the theory of activity-dependent degeneration as the cause of this hub vulnerability. However, two critical issues remain unresolved.

Vascular calcification is a common phenomenon in various vascular diseases, where its presence heralds increased occurrence of adverse disease events, which invariably lead to increased morbidity and mortality in patients. Although the impact of calcification has become apparent, adequate and early detection of the most damaging form of early microcalcification is still in its infancy, preventing reliable identification of locations that would benefit from intervention. In this review, we will provide an overview of the current state-of-the-art noninvasive calcification imaging and its persisting limitations.

Recent advances in radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT) and radioembolization (RE) will make these forms of therapy more prevalent in radiation oncology and nuclear medicine clinics. This article guides medical physicists in radiation oncology by summarizing current RPT and RE techniques, processes, safety, quality assurance, equipment, etc. The summarized guidance, which addresses technical considerations, may be applied broadly to develop a clinical RPT/RE program that offers multiple types of such therapies.
