Convolutional Neural Network-based MR Image Analysis for Alzheimer's Disease Classification.
CONCLUSION: The results of this study were compared to those of previous studies, and summarized and analyzed to facilitate more flexible analyses based on additional experiments. The classification accuracy obtained by the proposed method is highly accurate. These findings suggest that this approach is efficient and may be a promising strategy to obtain good AD, MCI and NC classification performance using small patch images of hippocampus instead of whole slide images.

Evaluation of the Reliability of Interim PET/CT in the Hodgkin Lymphoma.
CONCLUSION: The negative predictive value of interim PET was not satisfactory considering the treatment rate of over 80% of HL. Additionally, high rate of interim PET-negative patients' conversion to PET-positive post-treatment state was considered as unexpected.

Prone Myocardial Perfusion Imaging and Breast Attenuation: A Phantom Study.
CONCLUSION: Prone position has a high impact on the interpretation of MPI in female patients since it reduces the breast attenuation artifacts, and optimizes the radiation protection of the patient and all staff involved in the procedure, making it more cost-effective.

The Predictive Role of Abdominal Fat Parameters and Stone Density on SWL Outcomes.
CONCLUSION: All abdominal fat parameters and the stone density were not related to SWL failure. A large follow-up with more patients is essential to confirm the role of radiological parameters on the outcome of SWL.

Torsion of Wandering Spleen: Importance of Splenic Density and Liver-to- Spleen Attenuation Ratio on CT.
CONCLUSION: CECT should be obtained for the diagnosis of WS and assessment of the viability of spleen. CECT could suggest the diagnosis of infarction of the spleen with following findings; absence of parenchymal enhancement, very low density of spleen (<45 HU), and LSAR which is greater than 2.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Uncommon Hepatic Mesenchymal Tumours: Haemangioendothelioma and Angiosarcoma.
CONCLUSION: The imaging features suggestive of PHA are: Occurrence of metastases (lungs, spleen) at the time of diagnosis, presence of a large dominant mass with smaller satellites, heterogeneity and areas of haemorrhage in a dominant mass, progressive contrast enhancement, slightly elevated ADC values as compared to other malignant liver tumours.

The Neural Tract Between the Hypothalamus and Basal Forebrain in the Ascending Reticular Activating System: A Diffusion Tensor Tractography Study.
CONCLUSION: Using DTT, the ARAS between the hypothalamus and the BF was identified in normal subjects. Because the hypothalamus and BF are related to the regulation of wakefulness and sleep, our reconstruction method and results would be useful in the research on sleep and wakefulness aspects of consciousness.

High-pitch Dual-source CT Angiography before TAVI - the Value of ECG Gating.
CONCLUSION: High-pitch, dual-source CT angiography of the whole aorta with or without ECG gating is a dose-efficient and time-saving examination strategy before TAVI. However acquisition timing within the cardiac cycle needs to be taken into account.

Risk Factors for Postembolization Syndrome After Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization.
CONCLUSION: A treated tumor measuring >5 cm, treating more than one tumor, and the failure to perform the procedure in a super selective fashion increase the risk of PES development after TACE.
