Hamstring muscle injuries are among the most common lower-extremity injuries in active individuals. Hamstring injuries follow a consistent pattern with a consistent medical history, which includes a sudden, explosive ty...

IntroductionSouth American camelids (SACs) and dromedaries presenting with neurological abnormalities are increasingly common in veterinary practice. Advanced diagnostic imaging techniques, such as computed tomography (C...

Background. Lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow) is an overuse tendinopathy of the wrist extensors associated with repetitive gripping and wrist extension. It is a common cause of lateral elbow pain and functional impair...

Introduction and aims: For decades, orthodontic diagnosis and treatment have primarily depended on physical models, imaging techniques, and three-dimensional (3D) imaging technologies. Nevertheless, single-modal data exh...

Abstract Accurate early detection of clinically significant prostate cancer is crucial for improving patient outcomes. However, traditional diagnostic methods such as Digital Rectal Exam and Prostate-Specific Antigen (PS...

Background. Temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) affect the TMJ, masticatory muscles, and related structures. They are critical in sports medicine, as athletes face unique stressors—from facial trauma to exertional bruxi...

Orbital imaging has undergone a significant transformation over the past few decades, evolving from basic radiographic techniques to sophisticated cross-sectional imaging modalities. Historically, conventional radiograph...

Background. Pediatric abdominal pain accounts for more than 1 million emergency department (ED) visits annually, and appendicitis is the most common surgical emergency. Guidelines recommend ultrasound as the initial imag...

Cancer is the second-largest cause of death worldwide, constitute about one out of every six deaths. Diagnostic techniques have been developed for the early detection to determine benign and malignant ones and conduct ap...

Background and purpose: The use of Magnetic Resonance imaging (MRI) for radiotherapy (RT) planning for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA NSCLC) could improve RT precision due to its superior soft tissue def...

BackgroundRadical prostatectomy remains a key curative treatment for localized prostate cancer which has undergone continuous transformation. Recent developments in robot-assisted and single-port surgery have followed th...

Abstract Objective To investigate whether virtual unenhanced (VUE) images generated from spectral CT using the rapid kVp switching technique can serve as a substitute for true unenhanced (TUE) images in the assessment of...

Abstract Background Brain tumor therapeutic responses can be quantified from magnetic resonance images (MRI) using 1‐ (1D) and 2‐dimensional (2D) linear and volumetric methods, but few studies in dogs compare these t...

Background: Magnetic Resonance Imaging plays a vital role in musculoskeletal diagnostics, especially in examining knee joint disorders. T2 mapping, an advanced MRI technique, offers a valuable quantitative approach to ev...

Abstract Medical images are inherently high-resolution and contain locally varying structures that are crucial for diagnosis. Efficient compression of such data must therefore preserve diagnostic fidelity while minimizin...

ObjectiveTo systematically map the evolution, academic network structure, and emergent research fronts of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) applications in prolonged disorders of consciousness (pDoC) through b...

Medical image prediction plays a very significant role in clinical decision-making and early detection and diagnosis of different diseases. However, the quality of medical images has a huge impact on the predictive model...

This literature review aims to synthesize current evidence on plastic bronchitis (PB), a disease characterized by varying degrees of branching cast formation in the airways. The rationale for undertaking this review stem...

Ultrasound-guided percutaneous lung needle biopsy (US-PLNB) is a pivotal diagnostic technique for subpleural pulmonary lesions, offering significant advantages such as real-time imaging, absence of ionizing radiation, an...

Abstract Background Early detection of renal involvement in ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) is crucial, as functional changes often precede anatomical damage. Current diagnostic standards, such as the measurement of ser...

Imaging is a vital component of the diagnostic and early detection processes for many medical disorders. However, the noise in the images can sometimes interfere with the accuracy of the diagnosis. Speckle noise, Poisson...

Introduction Oesophageal cancer has a poor prognosis and oesophagectomy has increasingly adopted minimally invasive techniques, but delayed gastric conduit emptying (DGCE) still occurs in ~10–50% of patients, depending...

Abstract Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) induces critical morphological and vascular changes in breast cancer tumors, yet existing deep learning techniques in medical imaging tend to neglect these longitudinal changes thr...
