Preoperative stratification of Ki-67 proliferation index in intrahepatic mass-forming cholangiocarcinoma via tumor-halo radiomic phenotyping on biparametric MRI: a multicenter diagnostic model
Abdominal Imaging 5 min.
Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is a highly malignant liver tumor with a poor prognosis, which originates from the epithelial cells of the intrahepatic bile ducts [1, 2]. Intrahepatic mass-forming cholangiocarcinoma (IMCC) is the most common subtype of ICC, accounting for approximately 65% of cases....
Diagnostic value of Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI versus contrast-enhanced CT for detecting liver metastasis in colorectal cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Abdominal Imaging 5 min.
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most commonly diagnosed malignancy worldwide and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths [1]. Approximately 25–30% of CRC patients develop liver metastases, significantly worsening their prognosis [2, 3]. Recent advancements in targeted therapies and...
Successful conversion of percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage to endoscopic ultrasound-guided hepaticogastrostomy combined with antegrade stenting for a malignant distal biliary obstruction due to invasive intraductal papillary mucinous carcinoma: a case report
Abdominal Imaging 2 min.
Although endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is the first-line treatment for malignant distal biliary obstruction, when ERCP cannot be successful, endoscopic ultrasound-guided rendezvous and endoscopic ultrasound-guided antegrade stenting can be performed as salvage [1, 2, 3–4]....
Quantitative Evaluation of Acute Pancreatitis Based on Dual-Energy Computed Tomography.
Abdominal Imaging 1 min.
To evaluate the value of dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) parameters for the quantitative diagnosis of acute pancreatitis (AP) and classification of its severity. Methods: Patients with AP underwent a plain CT scan and three contrast-enhanced DECT scans. We analyzed the group differences in iodine...
