Only one-third of patients received osteoporosis medication after vertebral augmentation. The incidence of new vertebral fractures fell from 0.519 to 0.076 per person-year after starting medical management (incidence rate ratio 6.79, 95% CI 3.37-15.51), a 6-fold decreased risk.
Percutaneous MWA of T1 RCC showed 76% 10-year overall survival, 85% cancer-specific survival, and 83% local progression-free survival, with stable renal function and low complications.
Integrated model combining emphysema, Pi10, airway branch count, and clinical data detected undiagnosed COPD with AUC 0.83 (95% CI 0.80-0.86) in 5,014 lung screening participants, up from 0.69 for emphysema alone, reducing confirmatory spirometry referrals from 41% to 34%.
FAPI PET/CT showed 93.0% sensitivity vs 76.5% for FDG (p=0.002) in 176 patients with suspected HPB cancers. Nodal accuracy was 86.8% vs 71.1%. Dual-tracer approach did not improve accuracy. Prospective validation needed.
Perivascular epithelioid cell tumors (PEComas) are an uncommon group of mesenchymal neoplasms characterized by perivascular epithelioid cells that exhibit dual myomelanocytic differentiation. Due to their lack of a site-specific cell of origin, they may arise in a wide variety...
MRI of the breast has a key role in early detection of breast cancer and evaluation of the extent of disease. The most common indications for breast MRI include screening in women at high risk for breast cancer and staging of newly diagnosed breast cancer. Additional indicatio...
Following the introduction of antiretroviral therapy (ART), the prognosis after being diagnosed with HIV infection has changed from a universally fatal disease to a largely manageable chronic condition. Despite these advances, opportunistic infections remain a central challeng...

Peripheral nerve injury is a complex condition that significantly impacts quality of life and often affects young and active individuals. Accurate classification of injury severity using the Sunderland grading system is essential for distinguishing cases amenable to conservati...
Nerve blocks are a valuable opioid-sparing analgesic technique that play a critical role in multimodal pain management. As interventional radiology continues to expand its scope, proficiency in nerve block techniques has become increasingly relevant. Unlike general anesthesia,...
The term myocardial edema refers to abnormal myocardial fluid accumulation due to impaired fluid homeostasis, triggered by a complex interplay of cellular, molecular, and hemodynamic factors. It is a multifaceted pathologic phenomenon with diverse clinical manifestations and p...

No prior standard existed for intraprocedural echo guidance during mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair. ASE now defines required 2D, biplane, and 3D imaging views and communication steps for each procedural stage.
SIR's 2026 guidance on prostatic artery embolization (PAE) for benign prostatic hyperplasia updates patient selection, technique, and periprocedural care, reflecting RCT and meta-analysis data through 2025 and PAE's new AUA guideline recognition.
iLATAM-AP: first Ibero-Latin American clinical guidelines for acute pancreatitis deliver 20 GRADE-rated recommendations covering diagnosis, complications, antibiotics, ERCP timing, and cholecystectomy — aimed at standardizing care across diverse regional healthcare settings.
An EAES-led international Delphi study (n=71–83 panelists, 15 countries) reached consensus on a structured robotic training curriculum for gastrointestinal surgery, covering knowledge requirements, training components, performance assessment, and certification — though this addr…
Deep learning models clarify physiological signal from noise in lower extremity MR lymphangiography, potentially improving diagnostic assessment (specific quantitative metrics not available in the provided source).
In axial spondyloarthritis, degenerative spine lesions progress in a specific sequence: MRI disk degeneration strongly predicted later herniation (OR 3.97), Modic type 1 predicted Modic type 2 (OR 49.36), and MRI lesions predicted radiograph lesions at the same level (OR 2.49).
A three-round Delphi consensus of 33 MSK experts from 23 institutions achieved 100% agreement on standardized MRI reporting terms for 11 knee meniscus topics, including tear criteria, possible tears, and postoperative assessment—though not yet externally validated.
In a large prospective cohort, adding native T1 and extracellular volume to clinical models improved heart failure risk prediction (AUC 0.82 vs 0.76, p<0.001), reclassifying 1 in 5 patients.
AI-based 2-year breast cancer risk scores were stable for most women across consecutive mammograms, with a mean absolute change of just 0.006. For the 3.5% with a large score increase, short-term cancer incidence was 3.5-fold higher, supporting use of AI to guide personalized re…
In FDG-avid multiple myeloma, 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT detected residual disease in 68% of sites that were FDG-negative, revealing a non-FDG-dependent imaging phenotype that may improve staging. This was a single-center, retrospective analysis.
A deep learning tool (LympClear) suppressed obscuring venous signal on MR lymphangiography in 1022 patients with lower extremity lymphedema, boosting lymphatic reflux visibility (8.3 vs 6.0 on a 10-point scale) and slashing reading time from 16.7 to 3.6 minutes per exam. Readers…
Adding cardiac MRI parameters to the PREVENT equations improved 10-year heart failure risk prediction, raising C-index from 0.760 to 0.821 in the test set (Δ0.061, P=.007), with sex-specific contributions from LA and LV function.
