Spontaneous intracranial hypotension: Exploring the viability of non-contrast FLAIR as a substitute for contrast-enhanced T1WI in assessing pachymeningeal thickening
ConclusionThe lack of complete correlation between FLAIR and T1ce in identifying pachymeningeal thickening highlights the need for caution in removing contrast agent administration from the MRI protocol of SIH patients, as it reveals a major criterion (i.e., pachymeningeal enhancement) of Bern score.

Unified Brain MR-Ultrasound Synthesis using Multi-Modal Hierarchical Representations
Med Image Comput Comput Assist Interv. 2023 Oct 13;2023:448-458. doi: 10.1007/978-3-031-43999-5_43.ABSTRACTWe introduce MHVAE, a deep hierarchical variational autoencoder (VAE) that synthesizes missing images from various modalities. Extending multi-modal VAEs with a hierarchical latent structure, we introduce a probabilistic formulation for fusing multi-modal images in a common latent representation while having the flexibility to handle incomplete image sets as input. Moreover, adversarial learning is employed to generate sharper images. Extensive experiments are performed on the challenging problem of joint intra-operat...

Carborane-FAPI conjugate: A potential FAP-targeted boron agent with improved boron content
Appl Radiat Isot. 2024 Apr 23;209:111330. doi: 10.1016/j.apradiso.2024.111330. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBoron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) has received extensive attention as an advanced binary radiotherapy method. However, BNCT still faces poor selectivity of boron agent and is insufficient boron content in tumor tissues. To improve the tumor-targeted ability and boron content, this research aims to design, synthesize and preliminary evaluate a new borane agent Carborane-FAPI, which coupling the o-carborane to the compound skeleton of a mature fibroblast activating protein (FAP) inhibitor (FAPI). FAP is a tumor-ass...

Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Cardiac Involvement in COVID-19
Br J Radiol. 2024 Apr 24:tqae086. doi: 10.1093/bjr/tqae086. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe COVID-19 pandemic, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, has led to a diverse pattern of myocardial injuries, including myocarditis, which is linked to adverse outcomes in patients. Research indicates that myocardial injury is associated with higher mortality in hospitalized severe COVID-19 patients (75.8% versus 9.7%). Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) has emerged as a crucial tool in diagnosing both ischemic and non-ischemic myocardial injuries, providing detailed insights into the impact of COVID-19 on myocardial tissue and fun...

Application of deep learning and radiomics in the prediction of hematoma expansion in intracerebral hemorrhage: a fully automated hybrid approach
CONCLUSION: A model using deep learning and radiomics was successfully developed. This model can reliably predict the hematoma expansion of ICH with a fully automated process based on non-contrast computed tomography imaging. Furthermore, the radiomics fusion with the Inception_v3 model had the highest accuracy.PMID:38654561 | DOI:10.4274/dir.2024.222088 (Source: Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology : The Turkish Society of Radiology)

Comparing Accuracy of Night Radiology Interpretations for Pediatric Trauma: Radiology Residents Versus Attending Teleradiologists
Discussion: When interpreting PTP CT imaging, RRs had similar discrepancy rates but faster TTI than ATs. Radiology residents had a higher discrepancy rate for PTP CTs than RR interpretation of adult patients, indicating both RRs and ATs need more focused training in the interpretation of PTP studies.PMID:38655777 | DOI:10.1177/00031348241248794 (Source: The American Surgeon)

Comparison and Utility of Intravenous Iodinated Contrast in Chest, Abdomen, Pelvis Computerized Tomography for Trauma Patients With Blunt Mechanism of Injury Before and After the May 9, 2022 Global Contrast Shortage at a Level II Trauma Center
Discussion: There was a decrease in the percentage of CT contrast studies performed during the shortage. A higher percentage of injuries were identified in the patients scanned with contrast. However, there were no significant differences in patient outcomes. Certain trauma patients may be safely scanned without contrast.PMID:38655835 | DOI:10.1177/00031348241248806 (Source: The American Surgeon)

Large-scale, mobile and technology-enhanced serious game for interprofessional education: pilot study and lessons learnt
This report describes the design and pilot testing of a large-scale, mobile, technology-enhanced serious game embedded in the IPE curriculum in Geneva, Switzerland. Organized into teams of eight, the students were tasked with finding a young patient who had just escaped from the intensive care unit. Through a series of 10 stations, they explored hospital- and community-based locations of the healthcare system and were engaged in various learning and game activities; they were rewarded with cues to unveil the mystery. A total of 582 undergraduate students from seven disciplines (medicine, midwifery, nursing, nutrition-diete...
