- A systematic review of contrast-enhanced computed tomography calcium scoring methodologies and impact of aortic valve calcium burden on TAVI clinical outcomes
Different methodologies have been used to assess the role of AV calcification (AVC) on TAVI outcomes. This systematic review aims to describe the […]
- Visual Ordinal Scoring of Coronary Artery Calcium on Contrast-Enhanced and Noncontrast Chest CT: A Retrospective Study of Diagnostic Performance and Prognostic Utility
BACKGROUND. Current guidelines recommend visual evaluation of coronary artery calcium (CAC) on all nongated noncontrast chest CT examinations. […]
- Prognosis of CT-derived Fractional Flow Reserve in the Prediction of Clinical Outcomes
CONCLUSION: Stenosis and FFR(CT) are independent predictors of intermediate-term outcomes. In the absence of a stenosis greater than 50%, a positive […]
- Effect of a calcium deblooming algorithm on accuracy of coronary computed tomography angiography
CONCLUSION: In this proof of concept study, coronary calcification deblooming using a prototype post-processing algorithm is feasible and reduces […]
- Applying Radiomics to Predict Pathology of Postchemotherapy Retroperitoneal Nodal Masses in Germ Cell Tumors
CONCLUSION: A predictive radiomics algorithm had a discriminative accuracy of 72% that improved to 88% when combined with clinical predictors. […]
- Quantitative assessment of dynamic 18F-flumethycholine PET and dynamic contrast enhanced MRI in high risk prostate cancer
CONCLUSION:: In patients with high-risk PCa, quantitative dPET and DCE-MR parameters in primary tumors differ from normal tissue. Only moderate […]
- 18F-Fluorocholine PET Whole-Body MRI in the Staging of High-Risk Prostate Cancer
CONCLUSION: In patients with high-risk prostate cancer, FCH PET and FCH PET/WBMRI depict significantly more metastatic lesions than do conventional […]
- Cystic lesions of the pancreatico-biliary tree: A schematic MRI approach
Although a common occurrence, cystic lesions of the pancreatico-biliary tree (PBT) may pose a diagnostic dilemma because they encompass a large […]
- Effect of chemotherapy on the impact of FDG-PET/CT in selection of patients for surgical resection of colorectal liver metastases: single center analysis of PET-CAM randomized trial
CONCLUSION: The impact of recent chemotherapy on detection of colorectal metastases with PET suggests that the utility of PET in patient selection […]
- Association of Apparent Diffusion Coefficient with Disease Recurrence in Patients with Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer Treated with Radical Chemotherapy and Radiation Therapy
CONCLUSION: The volumetric ADC95 may be a useful imaging metric to predict treatment failure in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer […]
- Kaposi's Sarcoma Presenting as Acute Small Bowel Obstruction Diagnosed on Multidetector Computed Tomography with Histopathological Correlation
Kaposi's sarcoma was originally described by Moritz Kaposi in 1872 as a rare form of multiple hemorrhagic skin lesions. Today it is well documented […]
- Understanding the natural history of focal nodular hyperplasia in the liver with MRI
CONCLUSIONS: Although FNH is benign and of no clinical significance, a substantial percentage of FNH shows interval growth or regression on long-term […]
- Intrahepatic bile duct dilatation due to liver metastases from colorectal carcinoma
CONCLUSION: Colorectal liver metastases have a significantly higher tendency to cause intrahepatic bile duct dilatation than noncolorectal metastases […]
