Low PPV-TPGV and high PCR have been observed in autism. This study also provides comparable reference values for pineal gland size in healthy children or autistic children aged 2-17 years. These results show promising potential for further research to understand the relationship between autism pathogenesis and the pineal gland.

To assess magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of rectal carcinoma in correlation with pathology, and to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of 3-Tesla MRI. A total of 86 patients were included. 3T MR imaging was conducted pre-operatively, with imaging data correlated to pathology results. High-resolution, 2-dimensional, T2-weighted fast-spin echo sequences in the sagittal, axial, and coronal planes used to tumour staging. Diffusion-weighted images were used to increase the accuracy of tumour evaluation. Rectal carcinoma was staged as T3 in 45.3% of all patients ( = 39), without involvement of the mesorectal fascia in 31.4% ( = 27), and with a possible or obvious invasion in 14% of patients ( = 12). The diagnostic accuracy of 3T MRI was 97.6% for the T1 stage, 92.1% for T2, 89% for T3, and 90% for T4 tumours. MR-derived extramural vascular invasion (EMVI) was found in 16.2% ( = 14), with an estimated diagnostic accuracy of 95%. Diffusion-weighted images and apparent diffusion coefficient were estimated for the different histology types of rect
