However, such tools have not been available to date. Although arterial-spin-labeling (ASL) MRI is a powerful noninvasive tool to measure perfusion, its application in neonates has encountered obstacles related to low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), large-vessel contaminations, and lack of technical development studies.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Purpose: &lt;/strong&gt;To systematically develop and optimize ASL perfusion MRI in healthy neonates under 1 week of age.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Study type: &lt;/strong&gt;Prospective.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Subjects: &lt;/strong&gt;Thirty-two healthy term neonates (19 female; postnatal age 1.9 ± 0.7 days).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Field strength/sequence: &lt;/strong&gt;3.0 T; T&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;-weighted half-Fourier single-shot turbo-spin-echo (HASTE) imaging, single-delay and multi-delay 3D gradient-and-spin-echo (GRASE) large-vessel-suppression pseudo-continuous ASL (LVS-pCASL).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Assessment: &lt;/strong&gt;Three studies were conducted. First, an LVS-pCASL MRI sequence was developed to suppress large-vessel spurious signals in neonatal pCASL. Second, multiple post-labeling delays (PLDs) LVS-pCASL were employed to simultaneously estimate normative cerebral blood flow (CBF) and arterial transit time (ATT) in neonates. Third, an enhanced background-suppression (BS) scheme was developed to increase the SNR of neonatal pCASL.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Statistical tests: &lt;/strong&gt;Repeated measure analysis-of-variance, paired t-test, spatial intraclass-correlation-coefficient (ICC), and voxel-wise coefficient-of-variation (CoV). P-value &lt;0.05 was considered significant.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;LVS-pCASL reduced spurious ASL signals, making the CBF images more homogenous and significantly reducing the temporal variation of CBF measurements by 58.0% when compared to the standard pCASL. Multi-PLD ASL yielded ATT and CBF maps showing a longer ATT and lower CBF in the white matter relative to the gray matter. The highest CBF was observed in basal ganglia and thalamus (10.4 ± 1.9 mL/100 g/min). Enhanced BS resulted in significantly higher test-retest reproducibility (ICC = 0.90 ± 0.04, CoV = 8.4 ± 1.2%) when compared to regular BS (ICC = 0.59 ± 0.12, CoV = 23.6 ± 3.8%).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Data conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;We devised an ASL method that can generate whole-brain CBF images in 4 minutes with a test-retest image ICC of 0.9. This technique holds potential for studying neonatal brain diseases involving perfusion abnormalities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Plain language summary: &lt;/strong&gt;MR imaging of cerebral blood flow in neonates remains a challenge due to low blood flow rates and confounding factors from large blood vessels.

Six risk models were developed, incorporating varying combinations of MRI parameters, clinical variables, and Rad_score to comprehensively evaluate their prognostic performance. A final risk stratification, integrating left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), the extent of late gadolinium enhancement (LGE), and Rad_score, was established and compared with one based on LVEF alone.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Statistical tests: &lt;/strong&gt;The prognostic implications of the Rad_score were evaluated using univariable and multivariable Cox proportional hazards models. A P value &lt;0.05 was considered significant.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;During a median follow-up of 3.1 years, 139 patients (17%) in the training set and 30 patients (15%) in the testing set experienced MACE. Rad_score was identified as a significant risk factor for MACE, with a hazard ratio of 1.46 (1.38-1.55) (P &lt; 0.01) in univariate Cox analysis. The risk stratification reclassified the risk for 33% of the study population in the training set and 34% in the testing set.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Data conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Myocardial cine radiomics are associated with MACE risk in STEMI patients and provide incremental improvement in risk stratification when combined with traditional parameters.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Plain language summary: &lt;/strong&gt;The development of radiomics has introduced new perspectives in both the diagnosis and prognosis of cardiovascular diseases. However, the incremental prognostic value of incorporating myocardial cine radiomics into predictive models for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) risk in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains unclear.

MRI is commonly used for diagnosing sacroiliitis, traditional methods often depend on subjective interpretation or limited automation which can introduce variability in diagnoses. The integration of semi-supervised segmentation and radiomics features may reduce reliance on expert interpretation and the need for large annotated datasets, potentially enhancing diagnostic workflows.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Purpose: &lt;/strong&gt;To develop a diagnostic model for sacroiliitis and bone marrow edema (BME) using semi-supervised segmentation and radiomics analysis of MRI images.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Study type: &lt;/strong&gt;Retrospective cohort study.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Population: &lt;/strong&gt;A total of 257 patients (161 males, 93 females; age 11-74 years), including 155 sacroiliitis and 175 BME patients.

Manual delineation of SIJ regions of interest (ROIs) on T1WI images by an experienced radiologist (W.M., 10-year experience) served as the reference standard for segmentation performance evaluation. Radiomics features from T1WI and STIR are used to train machine learning models, including support vector machine (SVM), logistic regression (LR), and light gradient boosting machine (LightGBM), for sacroiliitis and BME detection. Performance is assessed using area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy. The Dice coefficient is used to assess the performance of the semi-supervised segmentation model on SIJ segmentation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Statistical tests: &lt;/strong&gt;Performance is evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and decision curve analysis (DCA).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Result: &lt;/strong&gt;The Unimatch model achieves an average Dice coefficient of 0.859 for SIJ segmentation.
