Comparison of the diagnostic effectiveness of ultrasound imaging coupled with three mathematical models for discriminating thyroid nodules
CONCLUSION: Our findings indicate that SVM had significantly higher rates of true positive diagnoses and PLS-DA exhibited significantly higher rates of true negative diagnoses. All three models outperformed the TI-RADS classification in discriminating between malignant and benign thyroid nodules.PMID:38232946 | DOI:10.1177/02841851231221912 (Source: Acta Radiologica)

Histograms of computed tomography values in differential diagnosis of benign and malignant osteogenic lesions
CONCLUSION: Histogram analysis of CT values provides valuable diagnostic information for accurately differentiating between BOLs and MOLs. Among the different parameters, the 25th percentile parameter proves to be the most effective in this discrimination process.PMID:38213126 | DOI:10.1177/02841851231225418 (Source: Acta Radiologica)

Intraoperative radiographic analysis and adjustment of the optimal position of plate in high tibial osteotomy
CONCLUSION: If a small number of holes on the plate is visible under fluoroscopy, then several lateral positions of the plate can be obtained; the direction of the screw tunnel tends to deviate from the popliteal neurovascular bundle with the posterior position of the plate.PMID:38204189 | DOI:10.1177/02841851231223661 (Source: Acta Radiologica)

Patellar height: an important parameter in knee MRI associated with tendinopathy, quadriceps fat pad edema (QFPE), anterior cruciate ligament mucoid degeneration (ACL-MD), and lateral cartilage damage
CONCLUSION: The risk of patellar-quadriceps tendinopathy, quadriceps fat pad edema, ACL-MD, and lateral focal cartilage defect is higher in patients with alta-baja. The radiologist should evaluate these pathologies more carefully, especially subtle ones, in patients with abnormal patellar height.PMID:38193150 | DOI:10.1177/02841851231223003 (Source: Acta Radiologica)

How to manage type 2 curve dilemma in dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging of the breast: diffusion-weighted imaging or early phase enhancement kinetics?
CONCLUSION: When combined with DWI, early phase wash-in data provide diagnostic improvement of breast masses presenting type 2 curve in the late phase of DCE-MRI, especially for specificity. Future studies are required to support our findings for the need of a cross-validation.PMID:38193154 | DOI:10.1177/02841851231219675 (Source: Acta Radiologica)
