Article Abstract
Objectives: Assessment of the usefulness of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in treatment planning in suspected cases of quittor in the horse.
Methods: Five horses with chronic discharging tracts at the level of the foot underwent MRI for treatment planning.
Results: The MRI examination revealed variable involvement of soft tissue and osseous structures of the foot in addition to abnormalities of the ungular cartilages in all cases. In two cases, follow-up MRI examination was performed. Four of five horses had a successful outcome, with three of these undergoing only one surgical procedure and one being managed medically.
Clinical Significance: We believe that the use of preoperative MRI facilitated accurate determination of the structures involved in cases of quittor, guiding the management, surgical approach and postoperative therapy.

Major ABO-Incompatible Platelet Transfusions Are Associated With Brain Ischemia After Intracerebral Hemorrhage.
Stroke

Department of Neurology, Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons, Columbia University, New York. (F.C.P., M.R., M.S., A.K., S.G., S.A., S.P., J.C., D.J.R.).
Background: Major ABO-incompatible platelet transfusions are associated with poor intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) outcomes, yet drivers for this relationship remain unclear. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) ischemic lesions after ICH are neuroimaging biomarkers of secondary brain injury and are associated with poor outcomes. Given that ABO-incompatible platelet transfusions can induce immune complex formation, thrombo-inflammation, and endothelial barrier disruption, factors that could exacerbate cerebral ischemia, we explored whether major ABO-incompatible platelet transfusions are risk factors for ischemic lesions on brain MRI after ICH.

Background: Aortic structural degeneration occurs with aging; however, 3-dimensional geometric remodeling has not been well characterized in large populations.
Methods: We segmented the thoracic aorta from magnetic resonance images of 56 164 UKB (UK Biobank) participants and computed tomography images of 9417 PMBB (Penn Medicine Biobank) participants. We quantified structural measurements of elongation, dilation, tortuosity, and curvature across the thoracic aorta.

Department of Internal Medicine, Biomedical Research Institute, Pusan National University Hospital, Pusan National University School of Medicine, Busan, Korea.
Purpose: To evaluate the feasibility of abbreviated liver magnetic resonance imaging (AMRI) with a second-shot arterial phase (SSAP) image for the viability of treated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after non-radiation locoregional therapy (LRT).
Methods: We retrospectively enrolled patients with non-radiation LRT for HCC who underwent the modified gadoxetic acid-enhanced liver MRI protocol, which includes routine dynamic and SSAP imaging after the first and second injection of gadoxetic acid, respectively (6 mL and 4 mL, respectively), and an available reference standard for tumor viability in the treated HCC between March 2021 and February 2022. Two radiologists independently reviewed the full-protocol MRI (FP-MRI) and AMRI with SSAP.

The discovery of solute precursors of crystalline materials, such as biominerals, recently challenged the classical nucleation theory (CNT). One emerging method for investigating these early-stage intermediates in solution is dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (dDNP)-enhanced nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Recent applications of dDNP to calcium carbonate (CaC) and calcium phosphate (CaP) mineralization have demonstrated the feasibility of identifying and tracing very early-stage prenucleation clusters (PNCs).

Background: Individuals with a family history of bipolar disorder are at increased risk of developing affective psychopathology. Longitudinal imaging studies in young people with familial risk have been limited, and cortical developmental trajectories in the progression towards illness remain obscure.
Aims: To establish high-resolution longitudinal differences in cortical structure that are associated with risk of bipolar disorder.
