DEXA study: Little benefit from statins on bone health
Bone scans over time show little benefit of statin use on bone mineral density.
Demonstration of colocalization of pre-existing calcification and incident intraplaque hemorrhage (IPH) in the same plaque. Axial cross sections of the same plaque at the same arterial location on a scan obtained with a T1-weighted gradient-echo noncontrast MRI sequence in a 70-year-old female participant who was free of coronary heart disease and stroke before follow-up MRI. Baseline (left) and follow-up (right) MRI examinations. The blue arrows highlight calcification in a hypointense signal area, while the green arrow indicates IPH as a hyperintense signal. The asterisks mark the lumen of the carotid artery.

MRI-based fusion model determines HER2 status in breast cancer
By Amerigo Allegretto
An MRI-based fusion radiomics model achieved high accuracy in determining HER2 status in breast cancer patients.
June 2, 2025
The results depict tumor segmentation. an example of HER2 positive breast cancer is shown: (A), (B), and (C) represent the segmentation results of the entire tumor region on the T2WI, DCE-MRI, and DWI sequences, respectively; (D), (E), And (F) show the segmentation results of the intratumoral region combined with 3 mm peritumoral area on the T2WI, DCE-MRI, and DWI sequences, respectively.
