Background Data are limited regarding the performance of abbreviated screening breast MRI during consecutive years and the characteristics of breast cancers missed and detected with it. Purpose To assess the longitudinal diagnostic performance of abbreviated screening MRI and to determine whether the screening outcomes of abbreviated MRI differed between yearly time periods for 3 consecutive years. Materials and Methods This retrospective study included 1975 consecutive women who underwent abbreviated screening MRI between September 2015 and August 2018. Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) categories 3-5 defined positive results, and BI-RADS categories 1-2 defined negative results. Cancer detection rate (CDR), sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), abnormal interpretation rate (AIR), and interval cancer rate were assessed annually. Yearly performance measures were compared with the Fisher exact test by using the permutation method. Clinical-pathologic and imaging characterisdalities after negative results at the last screening MRI examination, and two were interval cancers. All missed cancers were node-negative early-stage invasive cancers and were smaller (median size, 0.8 cm vs 1.2 cm; P = .01) than detected cancers. Conclusion Screening outcome measures of abbreviated MRI were sustained without significant differences between 3 consecutive years. All cancers missed at abbreviated MRI were node-negative invasive cancers and tended to be smaller than detected cancers. © RSNA, 2021 See also the editorial by Lee in this issue.

But the term SWI is colloquially used to denote high-spatial-resolution susceptibility-enhanced sequences across different MRI vendors and sequences even when phase information is not used. The imaging appearance of SWI and related sequences strongly depends on the acquisition technique. Initially, SWI and related sequences were mostly used to improve the depiction of findings already known from standard two-dimensional T2*-weighted neuroimaging more microbleeds in patients who are aging or with dementia or mild brain trauma; increased conspicuity of superficial siderosis in Alzheimer disease and amyloid angiopathy; and iron deposition in neurodegenerative diseases or abnormal vascular structures, such as capillary telangiectasia. But SWI also helps to identify findings not visible on standard T2*-weighted images the nigrosome 1 in Parkinson disease and dementia with Lewy bodies, the central vein and peripheral rim signs in multiple sclerosis, the peripheral rim sign in abscesses, arterial signal loss related to thrombus, asymmetrically prominent cortical veins in stroke, and intratumoral susceptibility signals in brain neoplasms.Background The prognostic value of primary tumor location in the central lung is unclear because of heterogeneity in definitions of central lung cancer (CLC). Purpose To (a) validate the prognostic value of two recently proposed definitions of CLC by using a method designed to offset the shortcomings of existing evidence and (b) investigate the prognostic implications of a quantitative definition of CLC at chest CT. Materials and Methods Patients with pathologic stage T1a-bN0M0 lung adenocarcinomas resected between 2009 and 2015 at a single tertiary care center were retrospectively identified. The primary end point was disease-free survival. The associations of multiple definitions of central tumor location with survival were evaluated by using multivariable Cox regression. Time-dependent discrimination measures and interreader agreement were assessed for each definition. Results A total of 436 patients (median age, 62 years [interquartile range, 55-69 years]; 245 women) were evaluated. Tumor location at CT irognostic factor in patients with node-negative, early-stage lung adenocarcinomas. The quantification-based approach has advantages in terms of time-dependent sensitivity and reproducibility. © RSNA, 2021 Online supplemental material is available for this article.

Purpose To evaluate the performance of LI-RADS version 2018 for diagnosis of pediatric HCC. Materials and Methods This multi-institution retrospective study evaluated all available dynamic CT and/or MRI scans of pediatric (≤18 years) HCC from five institutions between July 2009 and April 2019. The control group included an equal number of other enhancing hepatic lesions. Blinded to final diagnosis, three radiologists independently applied LI-RADS version 2018 criteria. The reference standard was pathologic examination or more than 1 year follow-up. Sensitivity and specificity of LI-RADS were computed using a dichotomous classification of LR-1, LR-2, or LR-3 versus LR-4, LR-5, LR-TIV (tumor in vein), or LR-M (probably or definitely malignant but not HCC-specific) for predicting hepatic malignancy in the entire cohort and in patients at risk for HCC. Resultsity for the diagnosis of pediatric hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which had low frequencies of the major criteria used for adult HCC diagnosis. © RSNA, 2021 See also the editorial by Paltiel in this issue.Background Often used for T1 mapping of hip cartilage, three-dimensional (3D) dual-flip-angle (DFA) techniques are highly sensitive to flip angle variations related to B1 inhomogeneities. The authors hypothesized that 3D magnetization-prepared 2 rapid gradient-echo (MP2RAGE) MRI would help provide more accurate T1 mapping of hip cartilage at 3.0 T than would 3D DFA techniques. Purpose To compare 3D MP2RAGE MRI with 3D DFA techniques using two-dimensional (2D) inversion recovery T1 mapping as a standard of reference for hip cartilage T1 mapping in phantoms, healthy volunteers, and participants with hip pain. Materials and Methods T1 mapping at 3.0 T was performed in phantoms and in healthy volunteers using 3D MP2RAGE MRI and 3D DFA techniques with B1 field mapping for flip angle correction. Participants with hip pain prospectively (July 2019-January 2020) underwent indirect MR arthrography (with intravenous administration of 0.2 mmol/kg of gadoterate meglumine), including 3D MP2RAGE MRI. A 2D inversion recovery-based sequence served as a T1 reference in phantoms and in participants with hip pain.
