Transperineal microwave thermoablation for benign prostatic hyperplasia-related lower urinary tract symptoms in an elderly patient
Diagn Interv Radiol. 2024 Feb 29. doi: 10.4274/dir.2024.232639. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTransperineal prostate microwave thermoablation (TPMT) has been established as a safe means of treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH); however, its effectiveness in addressing BPH-related lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) remains unexplored. This case study aims to evaluate the efficacy of TPMT in LUTS attributed to BPH. An 84-year-old man with LUTS due to BPH-induced bladder outlet obstruction, unresponsive to previous medical treatments, and failed prostate artery embolization, underwent TPMT. Three coaxial needles were p...

Meta-research on reporting guidelines for artificial intelligence: are authors and reviewers encouraged enough in radiology, nuclear medicine, and medical imaging journals?
CONCLUSION: The findings indicate that AI-specific guidelines are not commonly encouraged and mandated (i.e., requiring a filled-out checklist) by these journals, compared with guidelines related to modeling and unrelated to modeling, leaving vast space for improvement. This meta-research study hopes to contribute to the awareness of the imaging community for AI reporting guidelines and ignite large-scale group efforts by all stakeholders, making AI research less wasteful.CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: This meta-research highlights the need for improved encouragement of AI-specific guidelines in radiology, nuclear medicine, and me...

Institutional clinical indication-based typical dose values of multiphasic abdominopelvic computed tomography examinations
CONCLUSION: The literature reveals large differences in the multiphasic abdominopelvic CT protocols, especially in the number of phases and scan length. This situation makes comparing dose values difficult. Dose studies revealing the protocol parameters in detail are needed so that institutions can compare and optimize their own protocols. Additionally, users should periodically check the dose values in their own institutions.PMID:38375738 | DOI:10.4274/dir.2024.232551 (Source: Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology)

Volumetric segmentation analysis of the levator ani muscle using magnetic resonance imaging in pelvic floor function assessment
CONCLUSION: Alongside the useful structural and functional information acquired from MR defecography images, volumetric analysis, and three-dimensional reconstructions of LAM may help to improve the accuracy of the diagnosis.PMID:38375767 | DOI:10.4274/dir.2024.232586 (Source: Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology)

Preoperative CT and MRI assessment of the longitudinal tumor extent of extrahepatic bile duct cancer after biliary drainage
CONCLUSION: Pre-BD CT provided better diagnostic performance in the preoperative evaluation of EHD cancer. The longitudinal tumor extent could be accurately assessed with post-BD MRI, which was similar to pre-BD MRI.CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: The acquisition of pre-BD CT could be beneficial for the preoperative evaluation of EHD cancer when BD is planned. Post-BD MRI would not be significantly affected by BD in terms of the diagnostic performance of the longitudinal tumor extent.PMID:38375768 | DOI:10.4274/dir.2024.232601 (Source: Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology)
