European Radiology Experimental    |    Diagnosis of peripheral bone and prosthetic joint infections
European Radiology Experimental – 2-year-launchversary

The youngest member of the ESR Journals Family, European Radiology Experimental, recently celebrated its 2-year-launchversary!
It published its inaugural articles in 2017 and has been continuing down the road to success ever since, reaching a milestone of over 42,000 downloaded articles in 2018 and achieving indexation in PubMed in November 2018 and in MEDLINE in June 2019.

Diagnosis of peripheral bone and prosthetic joint infections

Peripheral bone infection (PBI) and prosthetic joint infection (PJI) are two different infectious conditions of the musculoskeletal system, both of which are challenging to diagnose.
Thus, the European Society of Radiology (ESR), the European Association of Nuclear Medicine (EANM), the European Bone and Joint Infection Society (EBJIS), and the European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ESCMID) have come together to provide an overview of the two consensus documents on PBI and PJI.

Molecular imaging in immunotherapy

The current status and future directions of immune checkpoint target-associated imaging in malignancies are presented in this review. Molecular imaging strategies with MRI, PET, SPECT, and optical imaging for the evaluation of immunotherapy are rapidly implemented in clinical practice. (Eur Radiol)

Imaging in stroke: a comprehensive update

This critical review summarises the role of imaging strategies in stroke – multiphasic CT angiography, CT perfusion, MR DWI, MRI perfusion imaging – in the clinical decision making process and provides an update on endovascular treatment concepts in emergent large brain vessel occlusion. (Insights Imaging)

Age effect at correction of aortic coarctation and recurrent obstruction on adolescents

This study evaluated the effect of age at correction on the pulse wave velocity (PWV) and peak wall shear stress (WSS) in twenty-one adolescent patients with corrected coarctation, and the effects of valve morphology and presence of reobstruction. The authors concluded that coarctation correction age correlates with descending PWV in patients with tricuspid aortic valve. (Eur Radiol Exp)

The impact of AI systems on students and professors of radiology

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is not only changing the landscapes of radiology and healthcare, it is also impacting the way students of radiology learn in order to become better radiologists and healthcare professionals. Find out how AI systems are helping students and professors to increase their skills and improve their knowledge by clicking here.

How to avoid mistakes in Lung Ultrasound

This commentary provides an excellent review of the misconceptions and problems concerning the application of lung ultrasonography in critically ill patients. Lung ultrasound can have a significant clinical impact in acute care, if used in the appropriate way. (Chest)

Prognostic value of brain haemorrhage location on CT scans

This study correlates the exact anatomic location of a spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage with mortality and functional outcomes, in a large cohort of patients with severe intraventricular haemorrhage. Thalamic location, posterior limb internal capsule and globus pallidus/putamen involvement, anterior limb internal capsule and caudate locations, in descending order are related with poor outcomes on stroke scales. (Stroke)

Is MRI-targeted biopsy a better diagnostic strategy than systematic biopsy in prostate cancer?

This systematic review and meta-analysis show that MRI-suspicious areas targeted biopsy detected more men with clinically significant prostate cancer and fewer men with clinically insignificant prostate cancer than systematic biopsy, and, in addition, required fewer biopsy cores. (Eur Urol)
