Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the principal primary liver cancer and one of the most frequent malignant tumors worldwide in patients with chronic liver disease. When diagnosed at an advanced stage, it is often associated with portal vein tumor th...

Background: Biliary leaks are a severe complication after pediatric liver transplantation (pLT), and successful management is challenging. Objectives: The aim of this case series was to assess the outcome of percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage...

Deep learning (DL) reconstruction techniques to improve MR image quality are becoming commercially available with the hope that they will be applicable to multiple imaging application sites and acquisition protocols. However, before clinical implemen...

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have a proven track record in medical image segmentation. Recently, Vision Transformers were introduced and are gaining popularity for many computer vision applications, including object detection, classification,...

Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive bedside imaging technique that provides real-time lung ventilation information on critically ill patients. EIT can potentially become a valuable tool for optimising mechanical ventilation, espec...

Imaging biomarkers (IBs) have been proposed in medical literature that exploit images in a quantitative way, going beyond the visual assessment by an imaging physician. These IBs can be used in the diagnosis, prognosis, and response assessment of sev...

This study was performed to assess the value of SPECT/CT radiomics parameters in differentiating enchondroma and atypical cartilaginous tumors (ACTs) located in the long bones. Quantitative HDP SPECT/CT data of 49 patients with enchondromas or ACTs i...

Ultrasound-guided hydrodistention has been established as an effective minimally invasive treatment option for glenohumeral joint adhesive capsulitis (AC). Nonetheless, the long-term outcomes of the procedure have not yet been established. A total of...

Cardiac motion causes unpredictable signal loss in respiratory-triggered diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) of the liver, especially inside the left lobe. The left liver lobe may thus be frequently neglected in the clinical evaluatio...

Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) is an international standard that defines a format for storing medical images and a protocol to enable and facilitate data communication among medical imaging systems. The DICOM standard has been...
