Summary: This study investigated the differentiation between adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) and minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA) using quantitative three-dimensional CT imaging analysis. The results showed that patients with AIS had a higher ground-glass nodule rate, while those with MIA had higher solid volume and rate. Quantitative analysis of 3D-CT imaging data using software can help distinguish between AIS and MIA, providing useful guidance for decision-making in the surgical management of early lung cancer.

Summary: This study aims to construct a radiomic model of low-dose CT (LDCT) to predict the differentiation grade of invasive non-mucinous pulmonary adenocarcinoma (IPA) and compare its diagnostic performance with quantitative-semantic model and radiologists. The results showed that the radiomic model demonstrated excellent diagnostic performance in the validation cohort, with comparable accuracy to radiological experts.

Summary: This study aimed to predict the high-grade pattern of stage IA lung invasive adenocarcinoma (IAC) based on high-resolution CT (HRCT) features. Clinical, pathological, and HRCT imaging data of 457 patients with pathologically confirmed stage IA IAC were analyzed retrospectively. The logistic regression models based on HRCT features showed good diagnostic performance for the high-grade pattern of stage IA IAC.

Summary: The study analyzed the prognosis of patients with adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) or minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA) after more than 5 postoperative years. No recurrence of lung cancer was observed in this time frame, and the 10-year survival rates were 100% for both AIS and MIA cases. The low risk of recurrence at more than 5 years after resection highlights the clinical value of distinguishing AIS and MIA from other lung adenocarcinomas.

Summary: Invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma (IMA) is a rare subtype of invasive lung adenocarcinoma with differences in lymph node metastasis and KRAS mutations compared to non-IMA. Patients with IMA have a higher rate of intrapulmonary recurrence postoperatively, leading to significantly worse prognosis among those with lung recurrence compared to non-IMA patients. Overall survival rates at 5 years did not differ significantly between the two groups.

Summary: This study evaluated the value of CT and 18F-FDG-PET/CT in predicting the histological tumour grade of INMA. The results showed that pure solid appearance, round/oval shape, spiculation, absence of air bronchogram, and high SUVmax were associated with grade 3 INMAs. These findings suggest that CT and 18F-FDG-PET/CT may be useful non-invasive imaging methods for predicting the histological grade of INMAs.

Summary: Sublobar resection, especially wedge resection without lymph node dissection, may be the preferred surgical procedure for patients with AIS/MIA. Postoperative follow-up intervals may be extended if there are no risk factors. Further studies are needed to validate these implications.

Summary: The purpose of this study was to investigate the associations between cardiac magnetic resonance feature-tracking-derived myocardial strain parameters and volumetric function and hemodynamic parameters in patients with pulmonary hypertension. The results showed that impairment of myocardial strains was more strongly associated with alterations in ventricular function parameters than elevated pulmonary arterial pressure, limiting the diagnostic information of myocardial strain parameters in pulmonary hypertension.

Summary: The purpose of this study was to investigate the imaging characteristics and prognostic factors for the long-term survival of Behcet's disease (BD) with arterial involvement. The results showed that arterial lesions associated with BD usually involve multiple arteries and manifest differently in different types of arteries. Cardiac involvement and pulmonary artery aneurysm/dilation were independent prognostic factors for the survival of BD patients with arterial involvement.

Summary: This study investigated the potential of tin prefiltration and virtual monoenergetic imaging (VMI) in suppressing metal artifacts in high-resolution CT images of the lower extremities. The results showed that VMI reconstructions had better artifact reduction compared to T3D. VMI110keV had the least image noise. In terms of image quality, interpretability of bone-metal interface, and overall image quality, VMI110keV performed the best.

Summary: This study aimed to develop CT radiomics models to preoperatively identify lymph node (LN) status in resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients. The results showed that the combined model, integrating ESCC and LN radiomics features with clinical features, had the highest predictive ability among the three models. The combined model's predictive ability was validated in both the test and external validation cohorts.
