The significance of the predominant component in combined hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma: MRI manifestation and prognostic value
ConclusionThe predominant histopathological component is closely related to the imaging manifestation of cHCC-CC; and more importantly, it plays a significant prognostic role, which may alter the RFS prognosis of cHCC-CC. (Source: La Radiologia Medica)

Vascular risk factors and astrocytic marker for the glymphatic system activity
ConclusionThis correlation analysis revealed multiple modifiable and unmodifiable association factors to the glymphatic image marker. The DTI-ALPS index correlated with various metabolic factors that are known to increase the risk of vascular diseases such as atherosclerosis. Furthermore, the DTI-ALPS index was associated with renal indices, and this connection might be a link of water regulation between the two systems. In addition, the astrocytic biomarker, plasma GFAP, might be a potential marker of the glymphatic system; however, more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness. (Source: La Radiologia Medica)

Reirradiation of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas: a pragmatic approach, part II: radiation technique and fractionations
ConclusionDifferent radiation techniques and fractionations can be used for a second course of radiotherapy in patients with recurrent/second primary tumor of head and neck region. Tumor characteristics as well as radiobiological considerations should be take into account to define the best reRT approach. (Source: La Radiologia Medica)

Mammary nodules as incidental findings on chest computed tomography: a retrospective analysis on their frequency and predictive value
ConclusionChest CT incidental findings of mammary nodules had a 0.21% incidence rate. The accurate description of some CT scan features, such as post-contrast enhancement, margin irregularity, nipple retraction, skin thickening and the presence of structurally atypical lymph nodes, may help to establish a radiological suspicion of malignancy, especially if these characteristics are supported by a working diagnosis of cancer.
