Narrative review.Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) have emerged as disruptive technologies with the potential to drastically affect clinical decision making in spine surgery. AI can enhance delivery of care several arenas: (1) preoperative patient workup, selection, outcome prediction; (2) quality reproducibility research; (3) perioperative surgical assistance data tracking optimization; (4) intraoperative performance. The purpose this narrative review is concisely...
Abstract Objective This prospective multicenter multireader study evaluated the performance of 40% scan-time reduced spinal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reconstructed with deep learning (DL). Methods A total 61 patients underwent standard care (SOC) and accelerated (FAST) spine MRI. DL was used to enhance set (FAST-DL). Three neuroradiologists were presented paired side-by-side datasets (666 series). Datasets blinded randomized in sequence left-right display order. Image features...
Study Design Systematic review and clinimetric analysis. Objectives Frailty sarcopenia predict worse surgical outcomes among spinal degenerative deformity-related populations; this association is less clear in the context of oncology. Here, we sought to identify frailty tools applied oncology appraise their properties. Methods A systematic was conducted from January 1 st , 2000, until June 2022. characteristics, tools, measures were recorded. Component domains, individual items, cut-off...
To introduce a new algorithm for estimating data shifts (used both rotation and translation estimates) motion-corrected PROPELLER MRI. The method estimates all blades jointly, emphasizing blade-pair correlations that are strong more robust to noise.The heads of three volunteers were scanned using acquisition while they exhibited various amounts motion. All reconstructed twice, motion from the original algorithm. Two radiologists independently blindly compared 216 image pairs these scans,...
A case of biopsy-proven acute hemorrhagic leukoencephalitis is reported. The early computed tomography scans showed extensive bilateral hypodensities with mass effects and foci microhemorrhages. Bilateral asymmetric hyperintensities in the mesiotemporal frontal lobes massive edema were found on T2-weighted fluid-attenuated inversion recovery magnetic resonance images a pattern classic for herpes simplex encephalitis. This fulminant demyelinating disease progresses to coma death within days....
Purpose To study how sensitivity encoding (SENSE) impacts periodically rotated overlapping parallel lines with enhanced reconstruction (PROPELLER) image quality, including signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), robustness to motion, precision of motion estimation, and quality. Methods Five volunteers were imaged by three sets scans. A rapid method for generating the g-factor map was proposed validated via Monte Carlo simulations. Sensitivity maps extrapolated increase area over which SENSE can be...
Radiation therapy is an integral part of the standard care for many patients with brain and spine tumors. Stereotactic radiation surgery increasingly being used as adjuvant well a sole treatment. However, despite newer more focused techniques, still causes significant neurotoxicity. In this article, we reviewed scientific literature, presented cases who had developed different complications related to conventional or radiosurgery (gamma knife), demonstrated imaging findings, discussed...

<h3>SUMMARY:</h3> Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is an artificial cardiopulmonary bypass technique used to support patients with severe pulmonary failure or both and cardiac failure. The hemodynamic changes produced by extracorporeal affect the appearance of CTA head images, often confounding interpretation if correct history understanding are not known. This technical report describes principles oxygenation, techniques optimize intracranial imaging, pitfalls.
Infection involving the vertebral column, including bone, intervertebral disk, and paravertebral soft tissues is critical early diagnosis directed treatment paramount. Different infectious organisms present with variable imaging characteristics, which when examined in conjunction clinical history, can facilitate ultimately prevent patient morbidity mortality. This article discusses pathophysiology of infection as well findings bacterial, tuberculous, fungal spondylitis/spondylodiskitis. We...
