- Clinical Improvement after Shunt Surgery in Patients with Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus Can Be Quantified by Diffusion Tensor Imaging
This study investigated DTI parameter alterations in pre- and postshunt implantation in patients with iNPH and the relationship between DTI parameters and clinical improvement. Cognitive domain improvement after surgery correlated with preoperative DTI values of cingulate gyrus, uncinate fasciculus, superior longitudinal fasciculus, or corpus callosum, which are regions involved in memory and psychomotor speed processes.
- Deep Learning–Based Reconstruction for Accelerated Cervical Spine MRI: Utility in the Evaluation of Myelopathy and Degenerative Diseases
This study prospectively compared the image quality and diagnostic performance of conventional MRI and accelerated cervical MRI with DL-based reconstruction in evaluating cervical degenerative spine diseases and myelopathy. The DL-reconstructed protocol demonstrated reduction in scan time, higher or comparable SNR and CNR with higher or similar overall image quality, and higher sensitivity for detecting neural foraminal stenosis and comparable diagnostic performance for other degenerative cervical spinal diseases and myelopathy.
