State-of-the-art MR Imaging of Uncommon Hepatocellular Tumours: Fibrolamellar Hepatocellular Carcinoma and Combined Hepatocellularcholangiocarcinoma.
CONCLUSION: The diagnosis of CHC may be suggested in case of elevation of both AFP and CA 19- 9 or inconsistency between elevated tumour markers and imaging findings (i.e., elevated CA 19-9 and radiological features of HCC, or elevated AFP with imaging findings characteristic of ICC).

Artifacts by Misalignment of Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Phased-array Coil Elements: From Simulation to In vivo Test.
CONCLUSION: This paper describes the effect of array elements misalignment, starting from coil simulation to cardiac magnetic resonance acquisitions with a 1.5 T scanner. Phased-array coil simulation was performed using the magnetostatic approach; moreover, phantom and in vivo experiments with a commercial 8-elements cardiac phased-array receiver coil permitted to estimate signal-to-noise ratio and B1 mapping for aligned and shifted coil.

Cribriform Plate, Crista Galli, Olfactory Fossa and Septal Deviation.
CONCLUSION: In our study, there was no Keros type 3 olfactory fossa. In males' contralateral side of SD; and in females both ipsilateral and contralateral side of SD, Keros type 2 olfactory fossa were detected. Therefore, during sinus surgery, surgeons should work carefully not to made intracranial penetration. PMID: 31989883 [PubMed - in process] (Source: Current Medical Imaging Reviews)

The Clinical Significance of Incidental Parotid Uptake in a PET/CT Study: A Diagnostic Algorithm.
CONCLUSION: In patients with malignancy elsewhere, focal involvement of FDG by the parotid gland, especially if malignant melanoma or SCC is absent, should not be considered a metastatic disease without histopathologic confirmation. If parotid disease would change the patient's treatment plan and disease stage, the parotid lesion should be evaluated by additional methods, such as fine needle aspiration biopsy.

Radiologic Findings of a Rare Subtype of Invasive Breast Cancer with Poor Prognosis: Metaplastic Carcinoma of the Breast.
CONCLUSION: Metaplastic breast carcinoma is one of the rarest poorly differentiated invasive breast carcinomas. Interestingly, these aggressive tumors demonstrate benign or moderately malign features on imaging methods. This appearance of MPBC can cause it to be misdiagnosed as a benign breast lesion especially in young women. MPBC should be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis of large palpable breast masses. Therefore, follow-up at short intervals and/or multimodality imaging studies which include breast MRI are important for the diagnosis of MPBC.

Mediastinal Epithelioid Hemangioendothelioma Invading Superior Vena Cava: A Case Report and Review of Literature.
CONCLUSION: Mediastinal EHE invading the SVC may present as a homogeneously enhancing mass with punctate calcifications. It should be added to the differential diagnosis of tumors of the mediastinum. Accurate preoperative diagnosis of EHE is critical for surgical planning; therefore, knowledge of the radiologic features of EHE is important.

Knee Meniscus Segmentation and Tear Detection from MRI: A Review.
CONCLUSION: The work that has been done in this area can effectively support the decisions that will be made by radiology and orthopedics specialists. Furthermore, these operations, which were performed manually on MR images, can be performed in a shorter time with the help of computeraided systems, which enables early diagnosis and treatment.
