Purpose To evaluate a fully automated machine learning algorithm that uses pretherapeutic quantitative CT image features and clinical factors to predict hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) response transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE). Materials Methods Outcome information from 105 patients receiving first-line treatment with TACE was evaluated retrospectively. The primary endpoint time progression (TTP) based on follow-up radiologic criteria (modified Response Evaluation Criteria in...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver neoplasm, and its incidence has doubled over past two decades owing to increasing risk factors. Despite surveillance, HCC cases are diagnosed at advanced stages can only be treated using transarterial chemo-embolization (TACE) or systemic therapy. TACE failure may occur with reaching up 60% of cases, leaving patients a financial emotional burden. Radiomics emerged as new tool capable predicting tumor response from pre-procedural...
Pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis (PPFE) is a rare idiopathic interstitial pneumonia that often underdiagnosed on computed tomography scans. The disease process involves combination of fibrosis involving the visceral pleura and fibroelastic changes within subpleural lung parenchyma. Although definitive diagnosis based pathological evaluation, this not feasible pattern recognition CT as "definite PPFE" or "consistent with important given sub group patients will undergo rapid progression...
Purpose This pilot study evaluates the feasibility of automated volumetric quantification hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) as an imaging biomarker to assess treatment response for sorafenib. Methods In this institutional review board–approved, Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act–compliant retrospective study, a training database manually labeled background liver, enhancing nonenhancing tumor tissue was established using pretherapy first posttherapy multiphasic computed...
Purpose The aims of the study were to assess typical and atypical radiologic features pathologically proven adrenal adenomas determine relationship between histopathologic classification. Methods We retrospectively studied 156 in 154 patients from our institutional databases who have computed tomography (CT) and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations before intervention. determined diagnosis (typical or atypical) using Weiss scoring classified radiologically into typical, atypical,...
<h3>Introduction</h3> Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is the standard-of-care treatment for patients with ischemic stroke (IS) proximal large intracranial vessel occlusion within 6 hours from onset of symptoms. More than half those who receive tPA a M2 still do not achieve adequate recanalization. IS may have low growth rate infarct volume and smaller final volumes found main MCA trunk infarctions, but can be just as disabling, particularly if language centers are involved. The ideal selection...
