AI-Assisted Summarization of Radiologic Reports: Evaluating GPT3davinci, BARTcnn, LongT5booksum, LEDbooksum, LEDlegal, and LEDclinical [ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE]
CONCLUSIONS:
AI NLP summarization models demonstrated great potential in summarizing longitudinal aneurysm reports, though none yet reached the level of quality for clinical usage. We found the online GPT LLM outperformed the others; however, the BARTcnn model is potentially more useful because it can be implemented on-site. Future work to improve summarization, address other types of neuroimaging reports, and develop structured reports may allow NLP models to ease clinical workflow.

A Radiomic "Warning Sign" of Progression on Brain MRI in Individuals with MS [ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE]
CONCLUSIONS:
Our machine learning model based on radiomics features successfully differentiated prelesions from normal-appearing white matter. This outcome suggests that radiomics features from normal-appearing white matter could serve as an imaging biomarker for progression of MS on MR imaging. (Source: American Journal of Neuroradiology)

Clinical and Imaging Findings in Children with Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody Associated Disease (MOGAD): From Presentation to Relapse [PEDIATRIC NEUROIMAGING]
CONCLUSIONS:
We describe the CNS imaging findings in pediatric MOGAD. The imaging pattern is age-dependent at presentation and first relapse. Younger age at presentation is associated with longer time to relapse. (Source: American Journal of Neuroradiology)

White Matter Injury on Early-versus-Term-Equivalent Age Brain MRI in Infants Born Preterm [PEDIATRIC NEUROIMAGING]
CONCLUSIONS:
Although the optimal timing to undertake neuroimaging in the preterm infant remains to be determined, both early (30–34 weeks) and term-equivalent MR imaging provide valuable information on white matter injury and the risk of associated sequelae. (Source: American Journal of Neuroradiology)

A Prospective Multi-Institutional Study Comparing the Brain Development in the Third Trimester between Opioid-Exposed and Nonexposed Fetuses Using Advanced Fetal MR Imaging Techniques [PEDIATRIC NEUROIMAGING]
CONCLUSIONS:
In this small cohort, prenatal opioid exposure was associated with altered fetal brain development in the third trimester. This adds to the growing body of literature demonstrating that prenatal opioid exposure affects the developing brain. (Source: American Journal of Neuroradiology)

Incidental Thalamic Lesions Identified on Brain MRI in Pediatric and Young Adult Patients: Imaging Features and Natural History [PEDIATRIC NEUROIMAGING]
CONCLUSIONS:
Most incidental, non–mass-like thalamic signal abnormalities were stable, decreased in size, or resolved on follow-up imaging and are likely of no clinical significance. Surveillance strategies with longer follow-up intervals may be adequate in the management of such findings. (Source: American Journal of Neuroradiology)

MRI-Based Brain Volume Scoring in Cerebral Malaria Is Externally Valid and Applicable to Lower-Resolution Images [PEDIATRIC NEUROIMAGING]

Comparison of HASTE versus EPI-Based DWI for Retinoblastoma and Correlation with Prognostic Histopathologic Parameters [HEAD AND NECK IMAGING]
CONCLUSIONS:
HASTE-DWI shows improved overall image quality; however, it lacks in terms of tumor conspicuity, SNR, CNR, and longer acquisition time compared with EPI-DWI. ADC values derived from HASTE-DWI show no advantage over EPI-DWI in correlation with histopathologic prognostic markers. (Source: American Journal of Neuroradiology)

Quantification of T2-FLAIR Mismatch in Nonenhancing Diffuse Gliomas Using Digital Subtraction [BRAIN TUMOR IMAGING]
CONCLUSIONS:
T2-FLAIR digital subtraction maps may be a useful, automated tool to obtain objective segmentations of tumor subregions based on quantitative thresholds for classifying IDH-mutant astrocytomas using the percentage T2 FLAIR mismatch volume with 100% specificity and exploring T2-FLAIR mismatch/T2-FLAIR nonmismatch subregion characteristics. Conversely, the addition of T2-FLAIR subtraction maps did not enhance the sensitivity or specificity of the visual T2-FLAIR mismatch sign assessment by experienced radiologists.

Discrimination of Hemorrhage and Contrast Media in a Head Phantom on Photon-Counting Detector CT Data [NEUROINTERVENTION]
SUMMARY:
In this anthropomorphic head phantom study, samples containing blood and contrast agent with concentrations ranging from 0 to 6 mg iodine per milliliter and another set of samples without blood for reference were scanned with a photon-counting detector CT using a standard cranial protocol. It was demonstrated that photon-counting detector CT can reliably distinguish hemorrhage and contrast media, including density determination of the latter. The technology promises to add value in several neuroimaging applications. (Source: American Journal of Neuroradiology)

Safety and Efficacy of Low-Profile Braided Stents versus Flow Diverters in the Reconstructive Technique in the Treatment of Patients with Vertebrobasilar Dolichoectasia Aneurysms: A Cohort of 47 Patients with Long-Term Follow-Up [NEUROINTERVENTION]
CONCLUSIONS:
Both low-profile braided stents and flow diverters have similar high risks in reconstructive techniques in the treatment of vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia aneurysms, while a flow diverter is more effective in promoting complete occlusion of vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia aneurysm than a low-profile braided stent. A flow diverter may be a better alternative for carefully selected patients with vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia aneurysms. (Source: American Journal of Neuroradiology)

CONCLUSIONS:
Treatment of anterior cranial fossa dural AVFs using transarterial embolization with n-BCA as a first-line approach is a safe and feasible first-line treatment strategy.
