Synthetic MRI in differentiating benign from metastatic retropharyngeal lymph node: combination with diffusion-weighted imaging

Peng Wang et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the synthetic MRI (syMRI) and its combination with diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and morphological features for discriminating benign from metastatic retropharyngeal lymph nodes (RLNs). The results showed that syMRI has diagnostic value in differentiating RLNs, and the combination with DWI and morpholoigcal features further improves the efficiency of diagnosis.

Evaluation of Monoexponential, Stretched-Exponential and Intravoxel Incoherent Motion MRI Diffusion Models in Early Response Monitoring to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Patients With Breast Cancer-A Preliminary Study

Zyad M. Almutlaq et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the value of diffusion coefficients derived from different models in predicting early response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with primary breast cancer. The results showed that tumor volume had reasonable performance in predicting response, while diffusion coefficients derived from the monoexponential, stretched-exponential, and intravoxel incoherent motion models did not accurately predict pathological response. However, certain derived parameters (such as alpha from the stretched-exponential model, and f and f x D-p from the intravoxel incoherent motion model) were able to predict the degree of response in breast cancer patients after one cycle of neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Summary: The successful use of artificial intelligence in oncology imaging for diagnostic purposes has prompted the exploration of its potential in addressing more complex clinical needs. This perspective discusses the evolution of AI tools in oncology imaging, focusing on challenges such as outcome prognostication across multiple cancers and response prediction to various treatment modalities. The authors also highlight the opportunities and challenges in the path to clinical adoption, aiming to demystify AI for clinicians and emphasize its role as a decision-support tool in cancer management.

Contrast-free MRI quantitative parameters for early prediction of pathological response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer

Siyao Du et al.

Summary: This study aimed to assess early changes in synthetic relaxometry after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for breast cancer and establish a model with contrast-free quantitative parameters for early prediction of pathological response. The results showed that early reduction in synthetic relaxometry indicated pathological response to NAC, and a model combining ADC, T1 changes, tumor size, and cancer subtype effectively predicted pathological response after one NAC cycle.

Machine Learning Models and Multiparametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging for the Prediction of Pathologic Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Breast Cancer

Carmen Herrero Vicent et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate whether imaging features (perfusion/diffusion imaging biomarkers + radiomic features) extracted from pre-treatment multiparametric MRIs can predict pCR to NAC, alone or in combination with clinical data. The results showed that a combination of imaging features and clinical variables improved pCR prediction compared to models only including imaging or clinical data, with an accuracy of 91.5%.

Breast Cancer Statistics, 2022

Angela N. Giaquinto et al.

Summary: This article provides an update on female breast cancer statistics in the United States, including data on incidence, mortality, survival, and mammography screening. It shows that breast cancer incidence rates have increased over the past few decades, driven by localized-stage and hormone receptor-positive disease. However, breast cancer mortality rates have been steadily declining since 1989, although at a slower pace in recent years. Despite lower incidence rates, there remains a racial disparity in breast cancer mortality, with higher rates among Black women compared to White women.

Quantitative Values from Synthetic MRI Correlate with Breast Cancer Subtypes

Toshiki Kazama et al.

Summary: This study aimed to correlate quantitative T1, T2, and proton density (PD) values with breast cancer subtypes using synthetic MRI. The results showed that T2 relaxation time was significantly higher in ER-negative cancers compared to ER-positive cancers. T1, T2, and PD values were strongly positively correlated with Ki-67. Among ER-positive cancers, Luminal A cancers had significantly lower T1, T2, and PD values compared to Luminal B cancers. Synthetic MRI-derived quantitative values show potential for subtyping invasive breast cancers.
