Article Abstract
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is used in several FDA-approved treatments and, increasingly, to treat neurological disorders in off-label uses. However, the mechanism by which TMS causes physiological change is unclear, as are the origins of response variability in the general population. Ideally, objective in vivo biomarkers could shed light on these unknowns and eventually inform personalized interventions. Continuous theta-burst stimulation (cTBS) is a form of TMS observed to reduce motor evoked potentials (MEPs) for 60 min or longer post-stimulation, although the consistency of this effect and its mechanism continue to be under debate. Here, we use glutamate-weighted chemical exchange saturation transfer (gluCEST) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at ultra-high magnetic field (7T) to measure changes in glutamate concentration at the site of cTBS. We find that the gluCEST signal in the ipsilateral hemisphere of the brain generally decreases in response to cTBS, whereas consistent changes were not detected in the contralateral region of interest (ROI) or in subjects receiving sham stimulation.

In the visual cortices, receptive fields (RFs) are arranged in a gradient from small sizes in the center of the visual field to the largest sizes at the periphery. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) mapping of population RFs, we investigated RF adaptation in V1, V2, and V3 in patients after long-term photoreceptor degeneration affecting the central (Stargardt disease [STGD]) and peripheral (Retinitis Pigmentosa [RP]) regions of the retina. In controls, we temporarily limited the visual field to the central 10° to model peripheral loss.

Background: Lateral malleolar avulsion fracture (LMAF) and subfibular ossicle (SFO) are distinct entities that both present as small bone fragments near the lateral malleolus on imaging, yet require different treatment strategies. Clinical and radiological differentiation is challenging, which can impede timely and precise management. On imaging, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the diagnostic gold standard for differentiating LMAF from SFO, whereas radiological differentiation on computed tomography (CT) alone is challenging in routine practice.

Importance: It is unclear whether the duration of amyloid-β (Aβ) pathology is associated with neurodegeneration and whether this depends on the presence of tau.
Objective: To examine the association of longitudinal atrophy with Aβ positron emission tomography (PET)-positivity (Aβ+) and the estimated duration of Aβ+ (Aβ+ duration), controlling for tau-positivity.
Design, Setting, And Participants: Data for this longitudinal cohort study were drawn from the Wisconsin Registry for Alzheimer Prevention and the Wisconsin Alzheimer Disease Research Center Clinical Core Study.

Myocarditis is an inflammation of heart tissue. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) has emerged as an important non-invasive imaging tool for diagnosing myocarditis, however, interpretation remains a challenge for novice physicians. Advancements in machine learning (ML) models have further improved diagnostic accuracy, demonstrating good performance.

Purpose: To investigate the images and treatment differences for Type IIIa atlantoaxial rotary dislocation (AARD) by comparing the imaging characteristics of patients with Type III and Type IIIa AARD.
Methods: The present study retrospectively analyzed a cohort of 35 patients who underwent posterior C1-C2 intra-articular fusion due to AARD from our hospital database. Among them, 23 patients were diagnosed with Type III AARD, while the remaining 12 patients were diagnosed with Type IIIa AARD.
