Brain MR findings in patients treated with particle therapy for skull base tumors
This paper illustrates the possible different radiologic patterns of radiation necrosis that can be seen through different MRI techniques in patients treated with hadrontherapy for tumors involving the skull base. The authors also present images of exemplary cases of... Can structured report data help develop deep learning algorithms?
Training deep learning networks requires large amounts of accurate labels which are usually extracted from reports using natural language processing or by time-consuming manual review. This study aimed to develop and evaluate a workflow for using data from structured... Letter to the Editor: “Re: Visible T1-hyperintensity of the dentate nucleus after multiple administrations of macrocyclic gadolinium-based contrast agents: yes or no?”
Authors: Sébastien Ballet, Jean-Sébastien Raynaud and Pierre Desché Affiliation: Guerbet, Villepinte, France Dear Editor in Chief, In a recent article published in Insights into Imaging, Splendiani et al reported appearance of visible dentate nucleus (DN)... ESR statement on portable ultrasound devices
This statement presents the potential use of portable US devices and their clinical applications, focusing on decontamination assessment and protocols, while keeping in mind that patient safety must never be compromised. It can also be considered as an addition to the... Celebrating IDOR 2019 with a special selection of articles from Insights into Imaging
Imaging of hip and thigh muscle injury: a pictorial review This pictorial review analyses the diagnostic assessment, in particular MRI, of muscle injuries of the hip and thigh. The correct and proper interpretation of the imaging findings is of utmost importance,... Validated imaging biomarkers as decision-making tools in clinical trials and routine practice
This article is a joint effort of the European Imaging Biomarkers ALLiance (EIBALL) and European Society of Radiology (ESR). It reviews the present evidence for the use of biomarkers in clinical settings at various stages of the disease pathway, critically evaluates... Alternative techniques to gadolinium-based contrast agents in MR neuroimaging
This review discuses non-contrast-enhanced MRI techniques that can be used as alternatives for the use of gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs). The authors included clinical studies on the diagnostic performance and contrast-enhanced MRI methods and described... Perinatal post-mortem ultrasound (PMUS): radiological-pathological correlation
This article is a continuation of a previously published practical approach to conducting a comprehensive post-mortem ultrasound (PMUS) examination. The authors now build upon it, focusing on commonly encountered pathologies on PMUS and comparing them to autopsy and...
