Article Abstract
Over the past decade, the application of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has increased, and there is growing evidence to suggest that improvements in accuracy of target delineation in MRI-guided brachytherapy may improve clinical outcomes in cervical cancer. To implement a high quality image guided brachytherapy program, a multidisciplinary team is required with appropriate expertise as well as an adequate patient load to ensure a sustainable program. It is imperative to know that the most important source of uncertainty in the treatment process is related to target delineation and therefore, the necessity of training and expertise as well as quality assurance should be emphasized. A short review of concepts and techniques that have been developed for implementation and/or improvement of workflow of a MRI-guided brachytherapy program are provided in this document, so that institutions can use and optimize some of them based on their resources to minimize their procedure times.

Background And Purpose: Socioeconomic determinants of health impact childhood development and adult health outcomes. One key aspect is the physical environment and neighborhood where children live and grow. Emerging evidence suggests that neighborhood deprivation, often measured by the Area Deprivation Index (ADI), may influence neurodevelopment, but longitudinal and multimodal neuroimaging analyses remain limited.

Interpreting BI-RADS-Free Breast MRI Reports Using a Large Language Model: Automated BI-RADS Classification From Narrative Reports Using ChatGPT.

Department of Radiology, Başakşehir Çam and Sakura City Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey (E.E.).
Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the performance of ChatGPT (GPT-4o) in interpreting free-text breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reports by assigning BI-RADS categories and recommending appropriate clinical management steps in the absence of explicitly stated BI-RADS classifications.
Methods: In this retrospective, single-center study, a total of 352 documented full-text breast MRI reports of at least one identifiable breast lesion with descriptive imaging findings between January 2024 and June 2025 were included in the study. Incomplete reports due to technical limitations, reports describing only normal findings, and MRI examinations performed at external institutions were excluded from the study.
Autologous Fibrin Glue in Microvascular Decompression for Trigeminal Neuralgia and Hemifacial Spasm.

Adhesive materials are widely used in microvascular decompression for treating neurovascular compression syndromes. They play an important role in the critical step of vessel fixation. Recently, completely autologous fibrin glue produced solely from a patient's own plasma was developed.

Surgical treatment for tumors located at the third ventricle and/or hypothalamic regions is significantly challenging due to the surrounding crucial neural and vascular structures. In 2013, the transventricular preforniceal approach was reported for exophytic chiasmatic/hypothalamic astrocytomas extending into the anterior third ventricle. Although this approach may be safe and effective for selected patients, this approach can only be applied when the space between the anterior commissure and the fornix is stretched by the tumor.
