Purpose To evaluate the usefulness of photoacoustic imaging (PAI) for obtaining three-dimensional images of both lymphatic vessels and surrounding venules. Materials and Methods In this prospective study, the authors recruited healthy participants from March 2018 to January 2019 and imaged lymphatic vessels in the lower limbs. Indocyanine green (5.0 mg/mL) was injected into the subcutaneous tissue of the first and fourth web spaces of the toes and below the lateral malleolus. After confirmation of the lymphatic flow with near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging as the reference standard, PAI was performed over a field of view of 270 × 180 mm. Subsequently, the number of enhancing lymphatic vessels was counted in both proximal and distal areas of the calf and compared between PAI and NIRF. Results Images of the lower limbs were obtained with PAI and NIRF in 15 participants (three men, 12 women; average age, 42 years ± 12 [standard deviation]). All participants exhibited a linear pattern on NIRF images, which is generally considered a reflection of good lymphatic function. A greater number of lymphatic vessels were observed with PAI than with NIRF in both the distal (mean 3.6 vessels ± 1.2 vs 2.0 vessels ± 1.1, respectively; P less then .05) and proximal (mean 6.5 vessels ± 2.6 vs 2.6 vessels ± 1.6; P less then .05) regions of the calf. Conclusion Compared with near-infrared fluorescence imaging, photoacoustic imaging provided a detailed, three-dimensional representation of the lymphatic vessels and facilitated an increased understanding of their relationship with the surrounding venules. © RSNA, 2020 See also the editorial by Lillis and Krishnamurthy in this issue.Background Pulmonary imaging of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has focused on CT or MRI measurements, but these have not been evaluated in combination. Purpose To generate multiparametric response map (mPRM) measurements in ex-smokers with or without COPD by using volume-matched CT and hyperpolarized helium 3 (3He) MRI. Materials and Methods In this prospective study (https//clinicaltrials.gov, NCT02279329), participants underwent MRI and CT and completed pulmonary function tests, questionnaires, and the 6-minute walk test between December 2010 and January 2019. Disease status was determined by using Global initiative for chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) criteria. The mPRM voxel values were generated by using co-registered MRI and CT labels. Kruskal-Wallis and Bonferroni tests were used to determine differences across disease severity, and correlations were determined by using Spearman coefficients. Results A total of 175 ex-smokers (mean age, 69 years ± 9 [standard deviation], 108 men) wrmal CT, abnormal ADC) were negatively correlated with FEV1 (r = -0.65 and -0.42, respectively; P less then .001) and diffusing capacity (r = -0.53 and -0.60, respectively; P less then .001) and were positively correlated with worse quality of life (r = 0.45 and r = 0.33, respectively; P less then .001), both of which were present in ex-smokers without COPD. Conclusion Multiparametric response maps revealed two abnormal structure-function results related to emphysema and small airways disease, both of which were unexpectedly present in ex-smokers with normal spirometry and CT findings. © RSNA, 2020.Background Thromboembolic events and intraoperative rupture are the most frequent neurologic complications of intracranial aneurysm coiling. Their frequency has not been evaluated in recent series. Purpose To provide an analysis of complications, clinical outcome, and participant and aneurysm risk factors after aneurysm coiling or balloon-assisted coiling within the Analysis of Recanalization after Endovascular Treatment of Intracranial Aneurysm, or ARETA, cohort. Materials and Methods Sixteen neurointerventional departments prospectively enrolled participants treated for ruptured and unruptured aneurysms between December 2013 and May 2015. Participant demographics, aneurysm characteristics, and endovascular techniques were recorded. Data were analyzed from participants within the overall cohort treated with coiling or balloon-assisted coiling for a single aneurysm. Rates of neurologic complications were analyzed, and associated factors were studied by using univariable analyses (Student t test, χ2 test, or Foiling, thromboembolic events were more frequent than were intraoperative rupture. Both complications were associated with poor clinical outcome in a similar percentage of participants. Risk factors for thromboembolic events were female sex and middle cerebral artery location. Risk factors for intraoperative rupture were small aneurysm size and anterior cerebral or communicating artery location. © RSNA, 2020.Background Radiofrequency ultrasound data from the liver contain rich information about liver microstructure and composition. Deep learning might exploit such information to assess nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Purpose To develop and evaluate deep learning algorithms that use radiofrequency data for NAFLD assessment, with MRI-derived proton density fat fraction (PDFF) as the reference. Materials and Methods A HIPAA-compliant secondary analysis of a single-center prospective study was performed for adult participants with NAFLD and control participants without liver disease. Participants in the parent study were recruited between February 2012 and March 2014 and underwent same-day US and MRI of the liver. Participants were randomly divided into an equal number of training and test groups. The training group was used to develop two algorithms via cross-validation a classifier to diagnose NAFLD (MRI PDFF ≥ 5%) and a fat fraction estimator to predict MRI PDFF. Both algorithms used one-dimensional convolutional neural networks.
