BACKGROUND: Distinguishing between meningeal-based and intra-axial lesions by means of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging findings may occasionally be challenging. Meningiomas and gliomas account for most of the total primary brain neoplasms in dogs, an...

PURPOSE: Tuberculosis is a major global health threat claiming millions of lives each year. While the total number of tuberculosis cases has been decreasing over the last years, the rise of drug-resistant tuberculosis has reduced the chance of contro...
OBJECTIVE: We aimed to identify optimal machine-learning methods for preoperative differentiation of sacral chordoma (SC) and sacral giant cell tumour (SGCT) based on 3D non-enhanced computed tomography (CT) and CT-enhanced (CTE) features.
Branchial cleft anomalies are the second most common head and neck congenital lesions in children. It may sometimes be a part of branchio-oto-renal (BOR) syndrome, so in patients with branchial cleft anomalies associated with a complaint of auricular...
PURPOSE: To evaluate the performance of a machine learning method based on texture features in multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to differentiate a glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) from a primary cerebral nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL).
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance of the deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) in differentiating between tuberculous and pyogenic spondylitis on magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, compared to the performance of three skilled...
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the performance of quantitative computed tomography (CT) texture analysis using different machine learning (ML) classifiers for discriminating low and high nuclear grade clear cell renal cell carcinomas (cc-RCCs).

OBJECTIVES: Primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) is a complex chronic systemic disorder, for which specific and effective therapeutic interventions are still lacking. In this era of precision medicine, there is a clear need for a better definition of dis...
OBJECTIVE: This study determined the clinical utility of an fMRI classification algorithm predicting medication-class of response in patients with challenging mood diagnoses.
PURPOSE: High grade gliomas (HGGs) are infiltrative in nature. Differentiation between vasogenic edema and non-contrast enhancing tumor is difficult as both appear hyperintense in T-W/FLAIR images. Most studies involving differentiation between vasog...
