Background/Objectives: Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by progressive neurodegeneration affecting both motor and non-motor functions. Identifying early alterations in PD patients before the onset of dopaminergic therapy is crucial for understanding disease progression and developing targeted interventions. This study aimed to investigate early changes in the putamen and thalamus in de novo PD patients using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) compared to healthy controls. Methods:...

Background: Intra-arterial cerebral infusion (IACI) of radiotherapeutics is a promising treatment for glioblastoma (GBM) recurrence. We investigated the in silico feasibility and safety of Yttrium-90-Poly(vinyl alcohol)-Microbubble (^(90)Y-PVA-MB) IACI in patients with recurrent GBM and compared the results with those of external beam radiation therapy (EBRT). Methods: Contrast-enhanced T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (T1W-MRI) was used to delineate the tumor volumes and CT scans were...

CONCLUSIONS: DKI seem to provide additional information compared to the standard diffusion model, this can be inferred from the results obtained through this study as DKI parameters correlates with both DCE and DSC parameters while ADC only correlates with K(ep) and in a statistically less significant manner.

CONCLUSION: Compressed-SENSE for 3D T2 FLAIR, T1w and T2w sequences enables faster MRI acquisition, reducing scan time and maintaining equivalent image quality. Compressed-SENSE is very useful in specific medical conditions where lower SAR levels are required without sacrificing the acquisition of helpful diagnostic sequences.

Peliosis hepatis (PH) is a rare benign pathological entity characterised by dilatation of the hepatic sinusoids. It has been reported to be associated with infection or malignancy, but the aetiology of PH remains unknown. Distinguishing PH from other malignancies can be difficult on imaging studies. This case report describes the incidental finding of PH in a patient undergoing a cardiac computed tomography (CT) scan at our institution. The CT scan incidentally revealed areas of altered density...
