This study aimed to investigate the effects of intravenous injection of iodine contrast agent on the tracheal diameter and lung volume. In this retrospective study, a total of 221 patients (71.1 ± 12.4 years, 174 males) who underwent vascular dynamic...
OBJECTIVES: Accurately acquiring and assigning different contrast-enhanced phases in computed tomography (CT) is relevant for clinicians and for artificial intelligence orchestration to select the most appropriate series for analysis. However, this i...

PURPOSE: To develop and externally validate an automatic artificial intelligence (AI) tool for delineating gross tumor volume (GTV) in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), which can assist in neo-adjuvant or radical radiation ther...
BACKGROUND: Gadolinium-based contrast agents are commonly used in brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), however, they cannot be used by patients with allergic reactions or poor renal function. For long-term follow-up patients, gadolinium deposition...
Idiopathic osteosclerosis (IO) are focal radiopacities of unknown etiology observed in the jaws. These radiopacities are incidentally detected on dental panoramic radiographs taken for other reasons. In this study, we investigated the performance of ...

Automated recognition of heart shunts using saline contrast transthoracic echocardiography (SC-TTE) has the potential to transform clinical practice, enabling non-experts to assess heart shunt lesions. This study aims to develop a fully automated and...
PURPOSE: To evaluate the diagnostic value of T1-weighted 3D fast spin-echo sequence (CUBE) with deep learning-based reconstruction (DLR) for depiction of pituitary adenoma and parasellar regions on contrast-enhanced MRI.
AIM: To evaluate arterial enhancement, its depiction, and image quality in low-tube potential whole-body computed tomography (CT) angiography (CTA) with extremely low iodine dose and compare the results with those obtained by hybrid-iterative reconst...
AIM: To establish a machine-learning model based on dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to differentiate combined hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma (cHCC-CC) from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) before surgery.
BACKGROUND: A deep learning (DL) model that automatically detects cardiac pathologies on cardiac MRI may help streamline the diagnostic workflow. To develop a DL model to detect cardiac pathologies on cardiac MRI T1-mapping and late gadolinium phase ...
