Purpose: The aim of this study was to systematically review the use of automated detection systems for identifying bone lesions based on CT and MRI, focusing on advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) applications.

Materials and methods: A literature search was conducted on PubMed and MEDLINE. Data were extracted and grouped into three main categories, namely baseline study characteristics, model validation strategies, and the type of AI algorithms.

Results: A total of 10 studies were selected and analyzed, including 2,768 patients overall with a median of 187 per study. These studies utilized various AI algorithms, predominantly deep learning models (6 studies) such as Convolutional Neural Networks. Among machine learning validation strategies, K-fold cross-validation was the mostly used (5 studies). Clinical validation was performed using data from the same institution (internal testing) in 8 studies and from both the same and different (external testing) institutions in 1 study, respectively.

Conclusion: AI, particularly deep learning, holds significant promise in enhancing diagnostic accuracy and efficiency. However, the review highlights several limitations, such as the lack of standardized validation methods and the limited use of external datasets for testing. Future research should address these gaps to ensure the reliability and applicability of AI-based detection systems in clinical settings.

目的:本研究旨在系统回顾基于 CT 和 MRI 识别骨病变的自动检测系统的使用情况,重点关注人工智能(AI)应用的进展:在 PubMed 和 MEDLINE 上进行了文献检索。提取数据并将其分为三大类,即基线研究特征、模型验证策略和人工智能算法类型:共选择并分析了 10 项研究,包括 2768 名患者,每项研究的中位数为 187 名患者。这些研究采用了各种人工智能算法,主要是深度学习模型(6 项研究),如卷积神经网络。在机器学习验证策略中,使用最多的是 K 折交叉验证(5 项研究)。8项研究使用了来自同一机构(内部测试)的数据进行临床验证,1项研究使用了来自同一机构和不同机构(外部测试)的数据进行临床验证:结论:人工智能,尤其是深度学习,在提高诊断准确性和效率方面大有可为。然而,本综述强调了一些局限性,如缺乏标准化的验证方法和外部数据集的测试使用有限。未来的研究应弥补这些不足,以确保基于人工智能的检测系统在临床环境中的可靠性和适用性。

Objective: To evaluate whether breast parenchymal features of the contralateral breast on preoperative MRI are associated with primary breast cancer characteristics and disease-free survival (DFS) in women with invasive breast cancer.

Materials and methods: Women with newly diagnosed invasive breast cancer who underwent preoperative breast MRI followed by surgery were retrospectively evaluated. Background parenchymal enhancement (BPE) on dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and background diffusion signal (BDS) on diffusion-weighted MRI of the contralateral breast were qualitatively assessed using a four-category scale: minimal, mild, moderate, or marked. Primary breast cancer characteristics were compared based on the degree of BPE or BDS. Cox proportional hazards models were used to evaluate the association between MRI parenchymal features and DFS after adjusting for clinicopathologic features.

Results: A total of 515 women (mean age, 54 years) were included. Of whom, 46 (8.9%) patients who developed disease recurrence at a median follow-up of 60 months were observed. A high level (moderate/marked) of BPE or BDS was associated with younger age (≤ 45) and premenopausal status (all P < 0.05) compared to a low level (minimal/mild), but it was not associated with primary cancer characteristics such as tumor stage, grade, or subtype. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards analysis demonstrated that larger tumor size (> 2 cm) (hazard ratio [HR], 3.877; P < . 001), triple-negative subtype (HR, 2.440; P = .013), and axillary node metastasis (HR, 1.823; P = .049) were associated with worse DFS. No associations were observed between background parenchymal features and disease outcomes.

Conclusions: MRI parenchymal features, including BPE and BDS, of the contralateral breast showed no associations with primary breast cancer characteristics or DFS in women with invasive breast cancer.

摘要评估术前磁共振成像显示的对侧乳房实质特征是否与浸润性乳腺癌女性患者的原发性乳腺癌特征和无病生存期(DFS)相关:对新确诊的浸润性乳腺癌患者进行回顾性评估,这些患者术前接受了乳腺磁共振成像检查,随后进行了手术。对动态对比增强 MRI 的背景实质增强(BPE)和对侧乳腺弥散加权 MRI 的背景弥散信号(BDS)进行定性评估,评估分为四级:极小、轻度、中度或明显。根据 BPE 或 BDS 的程度比较原发性乳腺癌的特征。在调整临床病理特征后,采用Cox比例危险模型评估MRI实质特征与DFS之间的关系:共纳入 515 名女性(平均年龄 54 岁)。在中位随访 60 个月时,观察到其中 46 例(8.9%)患者出现疾病复发。高水平(中度/明显)的 BPE 或 BDS 与年轻(≤ 45 岁)和绝经前状态(均为 P 2 cm)有关(危险比 [HR],3.877;P 结论:BPE 或 BDS 的高水平与年龄和绝经前状态有关:患浸润性乳腺癌的妇女对侧乳房的 MRI 实质特征(包括 BPE 和 BDS)与原发性乳腺癌特征或 DFS 无关。

Purpose: Midtarsal injuries are often missed at initial presentation which may lead to long-term complications. Nonetheless, radiographs (XR) are used as a primary imaging method. The place of cone beam computer tomography (CBCT) remains unclear in the management of midfoot injuries. The aim of this study was to update imaging findings on traumatic ankle and foot injuries (TAAFI) with CBCT and to assess the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of XR compared to CBCT for midfoot injuries detections.

Material and methods: All CBCT studies performed due to (TAAFI) that had previous XR were collected for a period of 5 years. They were retrospectively anonymized and analyzed by a radiologist. A second blinded study of XR was made by a second radiologist as a control.

Results: A total of 754 cases were included. Lisfranc and Chopart injuries were detected in 153 (20.2%) and 154 (20.4%) patients, respectively. Lisfranc and Chopart's lesions combined together were seen in 33 cases (10.7%). A blinded retrospective analysis of XR compared to CBCT shows a sensitivity of 64.9% (56.8-72.4%; 95% CI), a specificity of 95.0% (92.9-96.6%; 95% CI) and an accuracy of 88.9% (86.4-91.0%; 95% CI) for Chopart's injuries. Regarding Lisfranc, the sensitivity was 62.1% (53.9-69.8%; 95% CI), specificity 99.0% (97.8-99.6%; 95% CI) and accuracy 91.5% (89.3-93.4%; 95% CI).

Conclusion: This cohort study highlights the missed injuries of Chopart on XR and the low association with Lisfranc avulsions. The use of CBCT helps in detecting and assessing midfoot injury.

目的:跗骨中段损伤往往在初诊时被漏诊,这可能会导致长期并发症。尽管如此,X 光片(XR)仍被用作主要的成像方法。锥形束计算机断层扫描(CBCT)在足中部损伤治疗中的地位仍不明确。本研究的目的是通过 CBCT 更新创伤性踝关节和足部损伤(TAAFI)的成像结果,并评估 XR 与 CBCT 相比在检测中足损伤方面的敏感性、特异性和准确性:收集5年来因踝关节损伤(TAAFI)而进行的所有CBCT研究,这些研究之前都进行过XR检查。一名放射科医生对这些数据进行了匿名回顾性分析。作为对照,第二位放射科医生对 XR 进行了第二次盲法研究:结果:共纳入 754 个病例。分别有 153 例(20.2%)和 154 例(20.4%)患者发现了 Lisfranc 损伤和 Chopart 损伤。33例(10.7%)患者合并有Lisfranc和Chopart损伤。与 CBCT 相比,XR 的盲法回顾性分析显示,Chopart 损伤的灵敏度为 64.9% (56.8-72.4%; 95% CI),特异度为 95.0% (92.9-96.6%; 95% CI),准确度为 88.9% (86.4-91.0%; 95% CI)。关于Lisfranc,灵敏度为62.1%(53.9-69.8%;95% CI),特异度为99.0%(97.8-99.6%;95% CI),准确度为91.5%(89.3-93.4%;95% CI):这项队列研究强调了XR检查对Chopart损伤的遗漏以及与Lisfranc撕脱的低关联性。使用 CBCT 有助于检测和评估中足损伤。

Purpose: This multicenter prospective study aims to compare transradial access versus transfemoral access in conventional transarterial chemoembolization (c-TACE) procedures, focusing on operators radiations exposure, patients comfort, technical success and vascular access complications.

Materials and methods: Patients were affected by hepatocellularcarcinoma (HCC) in intermediate stage or previous stages unfit for ablation and/or surgery; they were randomized into two groups according to arterial access site (Group F: right femoral access in standard position; Group R: radial access with left arm abduced 90°). Overall fluoroscopy time was recorded. Eight thermoluminescence dosimeters were positioned immediately before each procedure to monitor radiation doses. Technical success was intended as complete HCC nodules lipiodolization at final plain cone-beam CT.

Results: Group F included 23 patients, while group R 19. Mean fluoroscopy time was lower in group F but difference was not statistically significant (p-value > 0.05). In terms of operators radiations exposure, no significant differences were found (p-value > 0.05). Technical success was obtained in 81.5% in group F and 84.8% in group R, without significant differences (p-value > 0.05). Patients discomfort was significantly (p-value < 0.05) higher in group F. Concerning minor complications, no statistical differences were appreciated (p-value > 0.05); no major complications occurred.

Conclusions: In this study, no statistical differences were observed in terms of operators radiations exposure, fluoroscopy time and technical success during c-TACE performed with left radial access compared to right femoral access; patients comfort was significantly better with radial access. These data should lead interventional radiologists to favor radial access in c-TACE interventions.

目的:这项多中心前瞻性研究旨在比较经桡动脉入路与经股动脉入路在传统经动脉化疗栓塞术(c-TACE)中的应用,重点关注操作者的辐射暴露、患者舒适度、技术成功率和血管入路并发症:患者均为肝细胞癌(HCC)中期或前期患者,不适合消融和/或手术;根据动脉入路部位随机分为两组(F组:标准体位右股动脉入路;R组:左臂外展90°的桡动脉入路)。记录整个透视时间。每次手术前都会立即放置八个热释光剂量计,以监测辐射剂量。技术成功是指在最终的锥形束 CT 平片上完成 HCC 结节脂肪碘化:结果:F组包括23名患者,R组包括19名患者。F 组的平均透视时间较短,但差异无统计学意义(P 值 > 0.05)。在操作人员所受辐射量方面,两组无明显差异(P 值 > 0.05)。技术成功率方面,F 组为 81.5%,R 组为 84.8%,无明显差异(P 值 > 0.05)。患者不适感明显(P 值为 0.05);无重大并发症发生:在这项研究中,使用左侧桡动脉入路与右侧股动脉入路进行 c-TACE 手术时,在操作者的放射线暴露、透视时间和技术成功率方面没有统计学差异;使用桡动脉入路时,患者的舒适度明显更好。这些数据表明,介入放射科医生在进行c-TACE介入治疗时更倾向于使用桡动脉入路。

Purpose: To establish an MRI-based predictive model for postoperative recurrence in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) and further to evaluate the model utility in treatment direction for neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapies.

Materials and methods: Totally 114 iCCA patients with curative surgery were retrospectively included, including 38 patients in the neoadjuvant treatment, traditional surgery, and adjuvant treatment groups for each. Predictive variables associated with postoperative recurrence were identified using univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses, and a prognostic model was formulated. Recurrence-free survival (RFS) curves were compared using log-rank test between MRI-predicted high-risk and low-risk iCCAs stratified by the optimal threshold.

Results: Tumor multiplicity (hazard ratio (HR) = 1.671 [95%CI 1.036, 2.695], P = 0.035), hemorrhage (HR = 2.391 [95%CI 1.189, 4.810], P = 0.015), peri-tumor diffusion-weighted hyperintensity (HR = 1.723 [95%CI 1.085, 2.734], P = 0.021), and positive regional lymph node (HR = 2.175 [95%CI 1.295, 3.653], P = 0.003) were independently associated with postoperative recurrence; treatment group was not significantly related to recurrence (P > 0.05). Independent variables above were incorporated for the recurrence prediction model, the 1-year and 2-year time-dependent area under the curve values were 0.723 (95%CI 0.631, 0.815) and 0.725 (95%CI 0.634, 0.816), respectively. After risk stratification, the MRI-predicted high-risk iCCA patients had higher cumulative incidences of recurrence and worse RFS than the low-risk patients (P < 0.001 for both). In the MRI-predicted high-risk patients, neoadjuvant therapy was associated with improved all-stage RFS (P = 0.034), and adjuvant therapy was associated with improved RFS after 4 months (P = 0.014).

Conclusions: The MRI-based iCCA recurrence predictive model may serve as a decision-making tool for both personalized prognostication and therapy selection.

目的:建立基于磁共振成像的肝内胆管癌(iCCA)术后复发预测模型,并进一步评估该模型在新辅助治疗和辅助治疗方向上的实用性:回顾性纳入114例接受根治性手术的iCCA患者,包括新辅助治疗组、传统手术组和辅助治疗组各38例。通过单变量和多变量 Cox 回归分析确定了与术后复发相关的预测变量,并建立了预后模型。使用对数秩检验比较了按最佳阈值分层的MRI预测的高风险和低风险iCCA的无复发生存率(RFS)曲线:肿瘤多发性(危险比 (HR) = 1.671 [95%CI 1.036, 2.695],P = 0.035)、出血(HR = 2.391 [95%CI 1.189, 4.810],P = 0.015)、肿瘤周围弥散加权高密度(HR = 1.723 [95%CI 1.085, 2.734],P = 0.021)和区域淋巴结阳性(HR = 2.175 [95%CI 1.295, 3.653],P = 0.003)与术后复发独立相关;治疗组与复发无显著相关性(P > 0.05)。将上述独立变量纳入复发预测模型后,1年和2年的时间依赖曲线下面积值分别为0.723(95%CI 0.631,0.815)和0.725(95%CI 0.634,0.816)。风险分层后,MRI 预测的高风险 iCCA 患者的累计复发率和 RFS 均高于低风险患者(P基于 MRI 的 iCCA 复发预测模型可作为个性化预后和治疗选择的决策工具。

Purpose: To assess the diagnostic performance and inter-observer agreement of a PREoperative sarcoma scoring based on ultrasound (PRESS-US) in differentiating uterine leiomyosarcoma (uLMS) from leiomyoma (LM).

Methods: We conducted a retrospective evaluation of patients who underwent surgery and received standardized ultrasound examinations due to the presence of uterine myoma-like masses. Histological diagnosis was used as the reference standard. The masses were analyzed using morphological uterus sonographic assessment criteria, and the diagnostic accuracy of PRESS-US was evaluated using ROC curve analysis. Kappa (κ) statistics were used to assess the inter-observer agreement between a less experienced and an expert radiologist.

Results: Among the 646 patients, 632 (97.8%) were diagnosed with LM, and 14 (2.2%) had uLMS. The malignancy rates for low-risk and high-risk patients were 0.35% and 13.48%, respectively. The optimal PRESS-US cutoff was 17.5, resulting in an AUC of 89.7% (95% CI, 0.79-1.00), with a sensitivity of 85.7% and a specificity of 87.8%. The inter-observer agreement between a less experienced and an expert radiologist was excellent (κ = 0.811, P < 0.001).

Conclusions: PRESS-US provides effective risk stratification for uLMS for radiologists with different levels of experience, with high reliability. Subgrouping high-risk patients helps in better risk stratification.

Background: Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is the gold-standard to estimate right ventricular (RV) volumes, which are key for clinical management of patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF). Semi-automated threshold-based methods (SAT) have been proposed for CMR post-processing as alternatives to fully manual standard tracing. We investigated the impact of SAT on RV analysis using different thresholds in rTOF patients.

Methods: RV volumes and mass were estimated using SAT and standard fully manual tracing methods in rTOF patients. Two threshold levels were set for SAT, i.e., default 50 (SAT-50) and 30 (SAT-30). RV stroke volumes (SV) were compared to main pulmonary artery forward flow (MPA-FF). Post-processing time, intra- and interobserver variabilities were compared across methods.

Results: Sixty-two CMRs of rTOF patients were analyzed. Compared to the standard fully manual tracing, no significant differences in RV mass, volumes and ejection fraction were observed using SAT-30, whereas SAT-50 significantly underestimated RV end-diastolic-volume index (EDVi) by 10.4% (mean difference of - 11.8 ± 6.2 ml/m2, p 0.03) and overestimated RV mass index by 21.8% (mean difference of 14.2 ± 11.9 g/m2, p 0.002). Compared to MPA-FF, RVSV by standard fully manual method and SAT-30 showed minor biases, respectively, 0.03 ml/m2 and 0.7 ml/m2, while SAT-50 underestimated RVSV by 6.86 ml/m2 (p < 0.001). In six patients, the degree of RV EDVi underestimation by SAT-50 determined a change of category from dilated to non-dilated RV. Intra- and interobserver variabilities were good to excellent for all methods. Post-processing duration was shorter for SAT compared to standard manual segmentation (5.5 ± 1.7 min vs. 19.5 ± 4.4 min, p < 0.001).

Conclusion: CMR SAT-30 post-processing is a precise, accurate and time-saving method for biventricular assessment of volumes, ejection fraction and mass in rTOF.

背景:心血管磁共振(CMR)是估算右心室容积的黄金标准,而右心室容积是法洛氏四联症(rTOF)修复患者临床管理的关键。有人提出了基于阈值的半自动方法(SAT)用于 CMR 后处理,以替代全手工标准描记。我们研究了 SAT 使用不同阈值对 rTOF 患者 RV 分析的影响:方法:使用 SAT 和标准全手动描记方法估算 rTOF 患者的 RV 容量和质量。为 SAT 设定了两个阈值水平,即默认值 50(SAT-50)和 30(SAT-30)。将 RV 搏出量(SV)与主肺动脉前向血流(MPA-FF)进行比较。比较了不同方法的后处理时间、观察者内部和观察者之间的差异:对 62 例 rTOF 患者的 CMR 进行了分析。与标准的全手动描记相比,使用 SAT-30 观察到的 RV 质量、容积和射血分数无明显差异,而 SAT-50 则明显低估了 RV 舒张末期容积指数(EDVi)10.4%(平均差异为 - 11.8 ± 6.2 ml/m2,P 0.03),高估了 RV 质量指数 21.8%(平均差异为 14.2 ± 11.9 g/m2,P 0.002)。与 MPA-FF 相比,标准全手工方法和 SAT-30 的 RVSV 偏差较小,分别为 0.03 ml/m2 和 0.7 ml/m2,而 SAT-50 则低估了 RVSV 6.86 ml/m2(p 结论:MPA-FF 和 SAT-30 的 RVSV 偏差较小,分别为 0.03 ml/m2 和 0.7 ml/m2:CMR SAT-30 后处理是在 rTOF 中评估双心室容积、射血分数和质量的一种精确、准确和省时的方法。

A guideline panel formulated a set of recommendations for breast cancer screening and diagnosis to implement clinical activities in Italy in alignment with the European Breast Cancer Guidelines on Screening and Diagnosis (European Commission Initiative on Breast Cancer-ECIBC). The panel issued national recommendations through adopting, adapting, and/or developing recommendations from the European guidelines (ADOLOPMENT approach). This process utilizes the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) evidence to decision (EtD) framework. An additional PubMed search was conducted using search terms specific to Italy to tailor the EU guidelines to the national context. Nine articles were included as contextual evidence in the EtD. A total of 13 recommendations were finalized, either adapted or adopted to suit the national context. Organized breast cancer screening is strongly recommended for women aged 50-69 every 2 years, and it is conditionally recommended every 3 years for women aged 70-74, as well as every 1 or 2 years for women aged 45-49. Annual mammography received a strong recommendation against for women aged 50 and older. Developing shared national guidelines for the management of mammography screening will improve the standardization of processes across all settings, thereby promoting health equity.

一个指南小组制定了一套乳腺癌筛查和诊断建议,以便在意大利开展与欧洲乳腺癌筛查和诊断指南(欧洲委员会乳腺癌倡议-ECIBC)一致的临床活动。该小组通过采纳、调整和/或发展欧洲指南中的建议(ADOLOPMENT 方法)来发布国家建议。这一过程采用了 "建议评估、发展和评价分级"(GRADE)的 "从证据到决策"(EtD)框架。此外,我们还使用意大利特有的检索词对 PubMed 进行了搜索,以使欧盟指南更符合意大利国情。有九篇文章作为背景证据被纳入了 "从证据到决策"(EtD)。最终确定了 13 项建议,这些建议或经过调整,或被采纳,以适应本国国情。强烈建议 50-69 岁的妇女每 2 年进行一次有组织的乳腺癌筛查,有条件地建议 70-74 岁的妇女每 3 年进行一次筛查,45-49 岁的妇女每 1 年或 2 年进行一次筛查。强烈建议 50 岁及以上的妇女不要每年进行乳腺 X 射线检查。为乳房 X 射线照相筛查的管理制定共同的国家指导方针将改善所有环境下的标准化流程,从而促进健康公平。

Background: Aim was to compare the efficacy of interventional radiotherapy (IRT) boost vs. external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) boost after chemoradiation (CCRT) in patients with anal cancer (AC).

Methods: The P.I.C.O. framework was: in patients with AC [P], is IRT boost [I] superior to EBRT boost [C] in terms of local control (LC), cancer specific survival (CSS), overall survival (OS), distant meta-static free Survival (DMFS), colostomy free survival (CFS) and toxicity [O]?

Results: 651 patients were analyzed. The median 5-year locoregional control rates was 87.8% in the IRT boost group versus 72.8% in the EBRT boost group. The 5-year cancer-specific survival rate was 91% in the IRT boost group versus 78% in the EBRT boost group. 5-years overall survival was 74.6% in IRT boost versus 67.7% in the EBRT boost. 5-years disease metastasis-free survival rate was 92.9% in IRT boost group vs. 85.6% for the EBRT boost group. Cancer-free survival rate was 76.8% in the IRT group vs. 63.1% in the EBRT boost group. Acute toxicity above grade 2 was less common in the IRT boost group while chronic toxicity was similar between both groups.

Conclusion: IRT boost after CCRT could lead to better outcomes than EBRT boost in treating AC.
