Gray matter (GM) damage and meningeal inflammation have been associated with early disease onset a more aggressive course in multiple sclerosis (MS), but can these changes be identified the patient course?To identify possible biomarkers linking inflammation, GM damage, severity, gene protein expression were analyzed meninges cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from 27 postmortem secondary progressive MS 14 control cases. Combined cytokine/chemokine CSF profiling 3T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)...
Lack of specific definitions clinical characteristics, disease severity, and risk preventive factors post-COVID-19 syndrome (PCS) severely impacts research discovery new therapeutics drugs.This prospective multicenter cohort study was conducted from February 2020 to June 2022 in 5 countries, enrolling SARS-CoV-2 out- in-patients followed at 3-, 6-, 12-month diagnosis, with assessment biochemical features, antibody (Ab) response, Variant Concern (VoC), physical mental quality life (QoL)....
Purpose To examine the outcomes of a breast cancer screening program based on digital tomosynthesis (DBT) plus synthesized two-dimensional (2D) mammography compared with those after full-field (FFDM). Materials and Methods This prospective study included 16 666 asymptomatic women aged 50-69 years who were recruited in April 2015 through March 2016 for DBT synthetic 2D Verona program. A comparison cohort screened FFDM (n = 14 423) previous year was included. Screening detection measures two...
In the era of precision medicine, increasing importance is given to machine learning (ML) applications. breast cancer, advanced analyses, such as radiomic process, characterise tumours and predict therapy responses. Breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays a key role in screening, staging, treatment monitoring. Lesion segmentation on MRI essential both assess tumour growth baseline for feature extraction. Manual time-consuming prone inter-operator variability, limiting access large...
<h2>Abstract</h2> Percutaneous core biopsy (CB) has been introduced to increase the ability of accurately diagnosing breast malignancies without need resorting surgery. Compared conventional automated 14 gauge needle (NCB), vacuum-assisted (VANCB) allows obtaining larger specimens and recognized advantages particularly when radiological pattern is represented by microcalcifications. Regardless technical improvements, a small percentage percutaneous CBs performed detect lesions are still...
Objective Intrathecal inflammation correlates with the grey matter damage since early stages of multiple sclerosis (MS), but whether cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) profile can help to identify patients at risk disease activity is still unclear. Methods We evaluated association between CSF levels 18 cytokines, previously found be associated damage, and activity, among 99 relapsing‐remitting MS, who underwent blinded clinical 3 T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) evaluations for 4 years. Groups...
Abstract Objectives Preoperative breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can inform surgical planning but might cause overtreatment by increasing the mastectomy rate. The Multicenter International Prospective Analysis (MIPA) study investigated this controversial issue. Methods This observational enrolled women aged 18–80 years with biopsy-proven cancer, who underwent MRI in addition to conventional (mammography and/or ultrasonography) or alone before surgery as routine practice at 27...
Although temporal lobe pathology may explain some of the symptoms multiple sclerosis (MS), its role in pathogenesis seizures has not been clarified yet.To investigate damage MS patients suffering from epilepsy, by application advanced multimodal 3T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) analysis.A total 23 relapsing remitting who had epileptic (RRMS/E) and disease duration matched RRMS without any history were enrolled. Each patient underwent MRI protocol specifically conceived to evaluate grey...
Radiology is an essential tool in the management of a patient. The aim this manuscript was to build structured report (SR) Mammography based Breast Cancer.A working team 16 experts (group A) composed create SR for Cancer. A further group 4 B), blinded activities A, assess quality and clinical usefulness final draft. Modified Delphi process used level agreement all sections. Cronbach's alpha (Cα) correlation coefficient internal consistency measure analysis according average inter-item...
Abstract Introduction Ocrelizumab (OCR) and Fingolimod (FGL) are two high-efficacy treatments in multiple sclerosis which, besides their strong anti-inflammatory activity, may limit neurodegeneration. Aim To compare the effect of OCR FGL on clinical MRI endpoints. Methods 95 relapsing–remitting patients (57 OCR, 38 FGL) clinically followed for 36 months underwent a 3-Tesla at baseline after 24 months. The annualized relapse rate, EDSS, new cortical/white matter lesions regional cortical deep...
Objective: Although ultrasonic imaging may represent a valid alternative to scintigraphy for measurement of gastric emptying, most studies comparing the two methods have been carried out with liquid meals. The aim this study was compare scintigraphic and ultrasonographic measurements emptying solid meal in healthy subjects patients possible delay emptying. Methods: Nineteen were studied: five controls, six gastroesophageal reflux, eight dysmotility-like dyspepsia. Gastric measured by both...
Three-dimensional (3D)-mammography (tomosynthesis) may improve breast cancer detection. We examined centre-specific effect of integrated 2D/3D mammography based on the STORM (screening with tomosynthesis or standard mammography) trial.Asymptomatic women who attended population-based screening through Trento and Verona centres were recruited into STORM, a prospective comparison screen-reading in two sequential phases: 2D-mammography only mammography. Outcomes number rates detected cancers...
Abstract Objectives To investigate the influence of preoperative breast MRI on mastectomy and reoperation rates in patients with pure ductal carcinoma situ (DCIS). Methods The MIPA observational study database (7245 patients) was searched for aged 18–80 years unilateral DCIS diagnosed at core needle or vacuum-assisted biopsy (CNB/VAB) planned primary surgery. Patients who underwent (MRI group) were matched (1:1) to those did not receive (noMRI according 8 confounding covariates that drive...
To evaluate the extent of intrathecal inflammation in patients with primary progressive MS (PPMS) at time diagnosis and to define markers a specific inflammatory profile capable distinguishing from relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS).Levels 34 pro- anti-inflammatory cytokines chemokines CSF were evaluated 16 PPMS 80 RRMS. All underwent clinical evaluation, including Expanded Disability Status Scale assessment 3T brain MRI detect white matter cortical lesion number volume global...
