Summary: We propose a method called What I Know (WIK) in explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) to provide additional information for verifying the reliability of deep learning models. This method demonstrates an instance in the training dataset that is similar to the input data to be inferred in a remote sensing image classification task. It helps determine whether the training dataset is sufficient for each inference and validates the validity of the model's inferences by checking the selected example data.

Summary: Advances in understanding the oncogenesis of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) have resulted in the development of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), improving clinical outcomes for patients with metastatic RCC (mRCC). Our literature search identified studies in RECIST criteria, radiomics and artificial intelligence, atypical response patterns, and body composition. These studies provide novel data that aim to enhance patient management and clinical outcomes, further supporting the concept of precision medicine. Radiomics and artificial intelligence can non-invasively obtain data that is not visible to the naked eye, offering potential advantages for predicting treatment response and personalized therapeutic approaches. This literature review focuses on the role of computed tomography (CT) in evaluating and predicting the effects of ICIs on mRCC patients using radiomics and artificial intelligence.

Summary: This study evaluated the radiological features of B3 lesions in patients with genetic mutations to establish an anatomo-radiological correlation. BRCA1 was the most frequent mutation followed by ATM and BRCA2. LN and FEA showed the highest malignancy correlation. Mammography revealed microcalcifications in 90.5% of lesions, ultrasound detected hypoechoic lesions, and breast MRI detected mass enhancement. DWI and kinetic curves significantly correlated with the risk of cancer. The high malignancy rate suggests surgical excision of B3 lesions.

Summary: Immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are immunomodulatory monoclonal antibodies that enhance the host's anti-tumor immune response and promote T-cell-mediated actions against tumors. However, they can cause immune-related adverse events (irAEs), mainly affecting the skin, gastrointestinal, hepatic, and endocrine systems. Early diagnosis of irAEs is crucial for proper management and treatment adjustments. This review aims to provide guidance on recognizing the significant radiological findings of irAEs based on incidence, severity, and the role of imaging.
