Standardized frameworks for interpreting medical images, such as the radiological Reporting and Data Systems (RADS), are designed to improve consistency accuracy of assessments across different imaging modalities, anatomical locations, disease processes. Clear communication information sharing between radiologists referring physicians, including surgeons, is a key goal RADS guidelines. Therefore, familiarity with these guidelines crucial all physicians involved in patient care. This review...
Evidence supporting the reliability of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) Neck Imaging Reporting and Data System (NI-RADS) is currently limited. This study aims to evaluate interrater agreement MRI NI-RADS among radiologists with varying levels expertise in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients. We designed an observational retrospective identify follow-up MRIs patients who had undergone radiation therapy. Five (2 head neck experts, 1 general radiologist, 2 residents radiology) scored each...
This review evaluates the current evidence on use of Neck Imaging Reporting and Data System (NI-RADS) for surveillance early detection recurrent head neck cancers. NI-RADS offers a standardized, structured framework specifically tailored post-treatment imaging, aiding radiologists in differentiating between residual tumors, scar tissue, post-surgical changes. demonstrated strong diagnostic performance across multiple studies, with high sensitivity specificity reported detecting tumors at...
Objectives The aim of this study was to summarize the current preclinical and clinical evidence on association between exposure gadolinium (Gd) compounds skin toxicity in a setting similar practice. Materials Methods A search MEDLINE PubMed references from January 2000 December 2022 performed using keywords related deposition its effects skin, such as “gadolinium,” “gadolinium-based contrast agents,” “skin,” “deposition,” “toxicity.” In addition, cross-referencing added when appropriate. For...
Brain spaces around (perivascular spaces) and alongside (paravascular or Virchow–Robin vessels have gained significant attention in recent years due to the advancements of vivo imaging tools their crucial role maintaining brain health, contributing anatomic foundation glymphatic system. In fact, it is widely accepted that peri- para-vascular function as waste clearance pathways for materials such ß-amyloid by allowing exchange between cerebrospinal fluid interstitial fluid.

Glioblastoma is the most frequent form of adult-type diffuse gliomas, and it carries a very poor prognosis. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) an indispensable tool for diagnosing monitoring brain tumors, potentially influencing choices like repeat surgery, biopsy, or alternative management strategies. However, interpreting post-surgical MRI gliomas can be particularly demanding, especially in differentiating between tumor progression treatment effects. Recently, novel score specifically...
Leptomeningeal myelomatosis is a rare complication of multiple myeloma (<1% the patients). There was an increase in incidence leptomeningeal during last decade; prognosis remains poor, (overall median survival from time diagnosis 2 months). We discuss case monoclonal gammopathy evolving into and finally rapidly progressing disease. A 76 year-old woman hematologic follow-up for advanced stage sixth-line treatment had episode generalized tonic-clonic seizure with sphincter release followed...
This study compares the incidence of new-onset symptoms within 24 hours after enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (eMRI) with intravenous administration gadodiamide or gadoterate meglumine compared a control group undergoing unenhanced MRI (uMRI).A prospective cohort (n = 1088 patients) was designed to assess meglumine. The participants underwent structured questionnaire by phone call before and scan check for that were not present scan. included list active questions aimed test prevalence...
Objectives To evaluate whether the use of Maximum Intensity Projection (MIP) images derived from contrast-enhanced 3D-T1-weighted volumetric interpolated breath-hold examination (VIBE) would allow more sensitive detection small (≤5 mm) brain metastases (BM) compared with source as well 2D-T1-weighted spin-echo (SE) images. Methods We performed a single center retrospective study on subjects BM who underwent 1.5 tesla magnetic resonance imaging. Two readers counted number for each seven sets...
To test the Reason for Exam Imaging Reporting and Data System (RI-RADS) in assessing quality of radiology requests an Italian cohort inpatients; to evaluate interobserver reliability RI-RADS.
Abstract Background The case of disseminated cancer cell spreading throughout the brain is called “miliary metastases” or “carcinomatous encephalitis”, a very rare and critical condition (primarily associated with lung breast cancer) in which there are multiple plaque perivascular distribution, made punctate lesions spread all brain. To our knowledge this represents fourth melanotic miliary metastases described literature, also melanin content that already evident on unenhanced T1-weighted...
Objective The aim of this study was to assess the presence detectable changes skin thickness on clinical brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans in patients with MS, history multiple gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) administrations, and evidence gadolinium deposition brain. Materials Methods In observational cross-sectional study, 71 MS who underwent conventional MRI an protocol including enhanced 3D volumetric interpolated breath-hold examination (VIBE) T1-weighted fat...
The preauricular sinus (PS) is a benign congenital abnormality affecting the soft tissues in region. Diagnosis typically clinical and routine imaging usually unnecessary symptomatic cases, but individuals with recurrent sinuses or previous unsuccessful surgeries may benefit from pre-operative imaging. Furthermore, PS be detected incidentally during head neck magnetic resonance (MRI), emphasizing need for radiologists ear, nose, throat specialists to familiar its characteristics. Notably,...
Brain metastases in prostate cancer are rare (<2% of cases). In magnetic resonance imaging, nearly all brain exhibit contrast-enhancement, which may be affected by the time elapsed since administration contrast agent. We discuss a case where patient with do not show clear contrast-enhancement on imaging using standard protocol. It also emphasizes usefulness delayed identifying blood-brain barrier damage. present 69-year-old man diagnosed adenocarcinoma, currently castration-resistant phase...
