Beyond diagnostic accuracy. Applying and extending methods for diagnostic test research

Current Medical Imaging

Muscle MR radiomics is feasible for identifying idiopathic inflammatory myopathy and has the potential to serve as a non-invasive alternative to muscle biopsy for assessing these changes.

The First Experience of Using T1 Fs Mri in Patients with Tuberculosis for the Assessment of Brain Pathology

Purpose: To evaluate the diagnostic value of the fat-suppressed T1-weighted (T1 FS) MRI sequence in the assessment of brain pathology in patients with tuberculosis, including those with HIV co-infection. Material and methods: The study included 29 patients aged 21–65 years treated at the Moscow Regional TB Clinical Di...

Incremental Diagnostic Value of Clinical Information for Large Language Models Across Multiple Organs: Retrospective Study

The addition of clinical information was associated with a numeric trend toward higher diagnostic accuracy overall, but this trend was heterogeneous across models and disease types, and no statistically significant improvement was demonstrated after adjustment for multiple comparisons.

Intravoxel Incoherent Motion Diffusion-Weighted MR Imaging can Differentiate between Residual or Recurrent Hepatocellular Carcinoma and Inflammatory Reaction Zone: A Single-Center Study

Introduction The aim of this study was to explore the application of IVIM-DWI (intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion-weighted imaging) MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) in the evaluation of abnormal enhancement of the margin of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after radiofrequency ablation (RFA). Materials and Methods We...
