BACKGROUND: Recent studies showed the potential of MRI-based deep learning (DL) for assessing treatment response in rectal cancer, but the role of MRI-based DL in evaluating Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homologue (KRAS) mutation remains unclear...
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to personalize treatment strategies for patients with cancer. However, current methodological weaknesses could limit clinical impact. We identified common limitations and suggested potential ...
OBJECTIVES: To explore the feasibility and effectiveness of machine learning (ML) based on multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mp-MRI) features extracted from transfer learning combined with clinical parameters to differentiate uterine sarcom...

PURPOSE: Acceleration of MRI acquisitions and especially of T2-weighted sequences is essential to reduce the duration of MRI examinations but also kinetic artifacts in liver imaging. The purpose of this study was to compare the acquisition time and t...
OBJECTIVES: Fetal sex determination with ultrasound (US) examination is indicated in pregnancies at risk of X-linked genetic disorders or ambiguous genitalia. However, misdiagnoses often arise due to operator inexperience and technical difficulties w...
Background Visual assessment remains the standard for evaluating emphysema at CT; however, it is time consuming, is subjective, requires training, and is affected by variability that may limit sensitivity to longitudinal change. Purpose To evaluate t...
