Breast-specific Gamma Imaging in the Detection of Atypical Ductal Hyperplasia and Lobular Neoplasia

Rationale and Objectives Atypical lesions such as atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH) and lobular neoplasia are nonmalignant lesions that are associated with significant increased risk of developing...

Benefits of 3D Rotational DSA Compared with 2D DSA in the Evaluation of Intracranial Aneurysm

Rationale and Objectives The aim of this study was to compare conventional two-dimensional (2D) digital subtraction angiography (DSA) with three-dimensional (3D) rotational DSA in the investigatio...

Automatic Left Ventricle Segmentation in Cardiac MRI Using Topological Stable-State Thresholding and Region Restricted Dynamic Programming

Rationale and Objectives Segmentation of the left ventricle (LV) is very important in the assessment of cardiac functional parameters. The aim of this study is to develop a novel and robust algori...

Automated vs. Manual Pattern Recognition of 3D1 H MRSI Data of Patients with Prostate Cancer

Rationale and Objectives The aim of this study was to assess (1) automated analysis methods versus manual evaluation by human experts of three-dimensional proton magnetic resonance spectroscopic i...

Assessing Renal Parenchymal Volume on Unenhanced CT as a Marker for Predicting Renal Function in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease

Objectives To estimate renal volume in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients using a semiautomated software and compare them with split renal function estimates from radionuclide renogram (RR). We...

Assessing First Year Radiology Resident Competence Pre-call

Rationale and Objectives Whether first-year radiology residents are ready to start call after 6 or 12 months has been a subject of much debate. The purpose of this study was to establish an assess...

A New Formula for Rapid Assessment of Pericardial Effusion Volume by Computed Tomography

Rationale and Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate a new formula for the rapid assessment of pericardial effusion (PE) volume by computed tomography. Materials and Methods Twenty com...

Semiquantitative Analysis of Maximum Standardized Uptake Values of Regional Lymph Nodes in Inflammatory Breast Cancer

Rationale and Objectives The aim of this study was to determine an optimum standardized uptake value (SUV) threshold for identifying regional nodal metastasis on 18 F–fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) pos...

Risk Factors for Non-calcified Plaques in Asymptomatic Population

Rationale and Objectives The aims of this study were to assess the prevalence of noncalcified coronary plaques in asymptomatic patients and to investigate the risk factors. Materials and Methods ...

Progression of Corpus Callosum Atrophy in Early Stage of Alzheimer’s Disease

Rationale and Objectives Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies reveal that atrophy of the corpus callosum (CC) is involved in early Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The aim of this study was to invest...
