  • Line-field confocal optical coherence tomography (LC-OCT) is a new technique for diagnosing skin cancers like basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), but little is known about how consistently different observers identify specific image markers of these conditions.
  • The study involved six evaluators with varying dermatological imaging experience assessing 75 LC-OCT images to determine the interobserver agreement (IOA) on 10 key image markers related to skin cancers and their precursors.
  • It was found that IOA was highest for markers typically seen in BCC, such as lobules and clefting, while other markers showed lower agreement, particularly those related to the dermal-epidermal junction, indicating

The aim of this study was to investigate if there was an association between infarct size (IS) measured by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) and echocardiographic global longitudinal strain (GLS) in the early stage of acute myocardial infarction in patients with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention were assessed with CMR and transthoracic echocardiogram within 1 week of hospital admission. Two-dimensional speckle tracking was performed using a semi-automatic algorithm (EchoPac, GE Healthcare).
