Summary: This study developed and validated a radiomics nomogram based on F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for non-invasive prediction of bone marrow involvement (BMI) in pediatric neuroblastoma. The radiomics nomogram incorporated radiomics signature and independent clinical risk factors, and showed good predictive performance in predicting BMI.

Summary: This study investigated the use of F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (F-18-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) radiomics features to accurately identify event-free survival (EFS) in pediatric neuroblastoma. The noninvasive combined model showed superior performance compared to clinical and conventional PET models in predicting EFS.

Summary: This article reviews the progress in applying 18F-FDG PET/CT and radiomics in clinical research on lung adenocarcinoma and how these data are analyzed using traditional statistics, machine learning, and deep learning to predict EGFR mutation status. Satisfactory results have been achieved through traditional statistics, machine learning, and deep learning. Future research should combine these methods to achieve more accurate predictions and provide reliable evidence for the precision treatment of lung adenocarcinoma.

Summary: This study developed a preoperative radiomics model based on PET images to predict peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer. By utilizing logistic regression analysis, significant differences were observed in CA125, SUVmax, and radiomics signatures among patients. The comprehensive model incorporating rad-score, CA125, and SUVmax demonstrated promising predictive performance.

Summary: Recent advances in the diagnosis and treatment of multiple myeloma have emphasized the importance of imaging methods, particularly PET/CT, in providing accurate information for disease localization, prognosis, and therapy response evaluation. While 18F-FDG tracer is commonly used and has high sensitivity, limitations such as physiological uptake in the bone marrow and brain have prompted research on other PET tracers for improved accuracy in multiple myeloma management.

Summary: The uptake of [F-18]AlF-NOTA-FAPI-04 and [F-18]FDG imaging tracers varies in malignant and inflammatory lung lesions, with lower uptake observed in inflammatory lesions. This difference in uptake can be valuable for distinguishing between malignancy and various inflammatory findings.

Summary: A predictive model for acute esophagitis (AE) in locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC) patients undergoing radiation therapy was developed based on esophagus dose and volumetric changes. The model showed improved prediction accuracy compared to traditional models and could potentially inform early plan adaptation to reduce the risk of esophagitis.

Summary: ELAV/Hu factors, a conserved family of RNA binding proteins, orchestrate multiple broad programs of neuronal mRNA processing and isoform diversification in both Drosophila and mammalian neurons. Their impacts on splicing, particularly in relation to 3' UTR extensions, play vital roles in regulating neural mRNA processing events.
