Assessment of Tumor Cell Invasion and Radiotherapy Response in Experimental Glioma by Magnetic Resonance Elastography
BACKGROUND Gliomas are highly invasive brain neoplasms. MRI is the most important tool to diagnose and monitor glioma but has shortcomings. In particular, the assessment of tumor cell invasion is insufficient. This is a clinical dilemma, as recurrence can arise from MRI-occult glioma cell invasion. HYPOTHESIS Tumor cell invasion, tumor growth and radiotherapy alter the…

The Association Between Tumor Radiomic Analysis and Peritumor Habitat-Derived Radiomic Analysis on Gadoxetate Disodium-Enhanced MRI With Microvascular Invasion in Hepatocellular Carcinoma
BACKGROUND Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has a poor prognosis, often characterized by microvascular invasion (MVI). Radiomics and habitat imaging offer potential for preoperative MVI assessment. PURPOSE To identify MVI in HCC by habitat imaging, tumor radiomic analysis, and peritumor habitat-derived radiomic analysis. STUDY TYPE Retrospective. SUBJECTS Three hundred eighteen patients (53 ± 11.42 years old; male = 276) with pathologically confirmed…

Brain Metabolite Differences in Fetuses With Cytomegalovirus Infection: A Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Study
BACKGROUND Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is the most common intrauterine infection and may be associated with unfavorable outcomes. While some CMV-infected fetuses may show gross or subtle brain abnormalities on MRI, their clinical significance may be unclear. Conversely, normal development cannot be guaranteed in CMV-infected fetuses with normal MRI. PURPOSE To assess brain metabolite differences in CMV-infected…

Hippocampal Glutamate Levels and Their Correlation With Subregion Volume in School-Aged Children With MRI-Negative Epilepsy: A Preliminary Study
BACKGROUND Abnormal levels of glutamate constitute a key pathophysiologic mechanism in epilepsy. The use of glutamate chemical exchange saturation transfer (GluCEST) imaging to measure glutamate levels in pediatric epilepsy is rarely reported in research. PURPOSE To investigate hippocampal glutamate level variations in pediatric epilepsy and the correlation between glutamate and hippocampal subregional volumes. STUDY TYPE…
