Objectives: To assess the effectiveness of HRCT-based radiomics in predicting rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (RP-ILD) and mortality in anti-MDA5 positive dermatomyositis-related interstitial lung disease (anti-MDA5 + DM-ILD).
Methods: From August 2014 to March 2022, 160 patients from Institution 1 were retrospectively and consecutively enrolled and were randomly divided into the training dataset (n = 119) and internal validation dataset (n = 41), while 29 patients from Institution 2 were retrospectively and consecutively enrolled as external validation dataset. We generated four Risk-scores based on radiomics features extracted from four areas of HRCT.

Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) originating from extrahepatic bile duct are an extremely rare entity. They are typically slow growing tumours with malignant potential. Commonly presenting as obstructive jaundice, preoperative clinico-radiologic differentiation between extrahepatic biliary tract neuroendocrine tumours and cholangiocarcinoma is difficult and the final diagnosis is usually established after surgical histopathology and immunohistochemistry examination.

Objective: To describe the radiological features of patients with headache as a presenting symptom of neurosarcoidosis.
Background: Neurologic complications occur in approximately 5%-10% of patients with sarcoidosis, and approximately 50% of these patients have neurologic deficits at the time sarcoidosis is first diagnosed. A wide spectrum of central and peripheral nervous system clinical manifestations may be observed, including cranial nerve palsies, sensory and/or motor deficits, and headache.

Aims Spondylodiscitis (SpD), a debilitating infective condition of the spine, mandates early diagnosis and institution of appropriate therapy, for which accurate microbiology and histological evaluation of the affected tissue is vital. The objectives of the study were to assess the correlation between clinical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings with histopathology (HPE) and microbiology (MB) in clinically diagnosed spondylodiscitis. Settings and design This was a prospective study of 34 consecutive patients reporting at the outpatient department of a tertiary hospital with clinical and imaging features of SpD, who underwent image-guided/surgical biopsy of lesions.
