The aim of this study was to investigate whether diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) could be useful in predicting the microvascular invasion (MVI) of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Sixty-seven surgically proven HCCs from 65 patients (54 men and 11 women with an age range of 35-75 years and a mean age of 56.0 years) were retrospectively analyzed. The signal intensities (SIs) of the lesions on preoperative diffusion-weighted (DW) images were visually categorized as isointense or hyperintense in com

BACKGROUND: We aimed to assess if quantitative radiomic features can predict programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression in advanced stage lung adenocarcinoma. METHODS: This retrospective study included 153 patients who had advanced stage (>IIIA by TNM classification) lung adenocarcinoma with pretreatment thin section computed tomography (CT) images and PD-L1 expression test results in their pathology reports. Clinicopathological data were collected from electronic medical records. Visual analy

On gadoxetic acid-enhanced MR images, hyperintense nodules can be differentiated with several imaging characteristics, especially a focal defect in contrast uptake and a hypointense rim, that indicate the diagnosis of hyperintense HCC.

OBJECTIVES: We aimed to meta-analytically compare the incidence of acute adverse reactions (AARs) to nonionic iodinated contrast media (ICM) according to the type of ICM in patients who underwent radiologic examinations with administration of ICM via intravascular route. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A systematic literature search identified studies evaluating the incidence of AARs to 7 nonionic ICM (iobitridol, iohexol, iomeprol, iopamidol, iopromide, ioversol, and iodixanol) with extractable outcomes

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to compare the underestimation rate of invasive carcinoma in cases with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) at percutaneous ultrasound-guided core biopsies of breast lesions between 14-gauge automated core-needle biopsy (ACNB) and 8- or 11-gauge vacuum-assisted biopsy (VAB), and to determine the relationship between the lesion type (mass or microcalcification on radiological findings) and the DCIS underestimation rate. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed i

Nearly half of recovered COVID-19 patients exhibited one or more abnormal CMR findings. Athletes and patients with normal cardiac enzyme levels showed a lower prevalence of abnormal CMR findings than non-athletes and patients with undetermined cardiac enzyme levels. Trial registration The study protocol was registered in the PROSPERO database (registration number: CRD42020225234).

BACKGROUND: The diagnostic performance of cardiac computed tomography (CT) for detection of paravalvular leakage (PVL) after mitral valve replacement has not been investigated in a large population. We aimed to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of CT for diagnosis of mitral PVL using surgical findings as the standard reference and to compare the diagnostic performance of CT with those of transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). METHODS AND RESULTS: A tot

The combination of SAFIRE and APSCM at coronary CT angiography significantly improves objective image quality while maintaining diagnostic accuracy and reduced radiation dose. Online supplemental material is available for this article.

<b>OBJECTIVE.</b> The objective of our study was to investigate the utility of FDG PET/CT for the preoperative staging of subsolid non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLCs) with a solid portion size of 3 cm or smaller. <b>MATERIALS AND METHODS.</b> We retrospectively enrolled 855 patients with pathologically proven NSCLCs manifesting as subsolid nodules with a solid portion of 3 cm or smaller on CT. We then compared the diagnostic performances of FDG PET/CT and chest CT for detecting lymph node (LN),
