We present the case of a middle-aged woman with reports of left cheek numbness, myalgias, and low-grade fever, which initially led to the suspicion of herpes simplex infection. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain and spine revealed per…
Cerebral and Portal Venous Air Embolism: A Complication of PICC Line Placement. Open
Cerebral air embolism is a rare and potentially fatal medical condition that requires prompt recognition and management. Iatrogenic causes such as laparoscopic procedures, hysteroscopy, or central venous catheter (CVC) manipulation are wel…
Integrative Imaging Informatics for Cancer Research: Workflow Automation for Neuro-Oncology (I3CR-WANO) Open
PURPOSE Efforts to use growing volumes of clinical imaging data to generate tumor evaluations continue to require significant manual data wrangling, owing to data heterogeneity. Here, we propose an artificial intelligence–based solution fo…
Deep learning-based end-to-end scan-type classification, pre-processing, and segmentation of clinical neuro-oncology studies Open
Modern neuro-oncology workflows are driven by large collections of high-dimensional MRI data obtained using varying acquisition protocols. The concomitant heterogeneity of this data makes extensive manual curation and pre-processing impera…

The Brain Tumor Sequence Registration (BraTS-Reg) Challenge: Establishing Correspondence Between Pre-Operative and Follow-up MRI Scans of Diffuse Glioma Patients Open
Registration of longitudinal brain MRI scans containing pathologies is challenging due to dramatic changes in tissue appearance. Although there has been progress in developing general-purpose medical image registration techniques, they hav…
Implementation of 3D Printing in Medical Care for Preoperative Planning of Complex Ventricular Septal Defect Open
Three-dimensional (3D) modeling and printing in medicine have emerged to encompass every aspect of medical applications. This ranges from education, illustration, and treatment, as well as patient care whether for purposes of diagnosis or …
Unusual Presentation of Widely Metastatic Extraskeletal Osteosarcoma: Case Report Open
Extraskeletal osteosarcoma is a highly aggressive malignant osteoid forming mesenchymal neoplasm arising from soft tissues which accounts for 1% of all soft tissue sarcomas. We report the case of a 46-year-old female with no significant pa…
High metabolic tumor volume is associated with decreased efficacy of axicabtagene ciloleucel in large B-cell lymphoma Open
High metabolic tumor volume (MTV) predicts worse outcomes in lymphoma treated with chemotherapy. However, it is unknown if this holds for patients treated with axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel), an anti-CD19 targeted chimeric antigen recep…

Microgallbladder: Self-Remitting Acute Cholecystitis-Like Condition Unique to Patients with Cystic Fibrosis Open
Microgallbladder is a nonsurgical medical condition characterized by chronic inflammation and atrophy of the gallbladder, which is considered a highly specific imaging finding unique to patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), and has been inci…
Leiomyosarcoma of the Inferior Vena Cava with Hepatic and Pulmonary Metastases: Case Report Open
Sarcomas are connective tissue tumors accounting for only 1% of all adult malignancies. Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) is a sarcoma arising from smooth muscle cells, and accounts for 10-20% of all sarcomas. A subtype of LMS are those originating fro…
A single center study of cancer patients with chronic kidney disease Open
Purpose: It is clinically understood that chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cancer are interrelated. Yet, few studies measure how renal outcomes vary according to common malignancies and common therapeutic agents. We report the incidence an…
Portable perfusion phantom for quantitative <span>DCE</span>‐<span>MRI</span> of the abdomen Open
Purpose The aim of this study was to develop a portable perfusion phantom and validate its utility in quantitative dynamic contrast‐enhanced magnetic resonance imaging of the abdomen. Methods A portable perfusion phantom yielding a reprodu…
