Article Abstract

Currently, standard protocols for body imaging and corresponding image processing pipelines in population-based cohort studies are unavailable, limiting the applications of body imaging. Based on the China Phenobank Project (CHPP), the present study described a body imaging protocol for multiple organs, including cardiac structures, liver, spleen, pancreas, kidneys, lung, prostate, and uterus, and the corresponding image processing pipelines promoted its development. Briefly, the body imaging protocol comprised a 40-min cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan, a 5-min computed tomography (CT) scan, a 20-min abdominal MRI scan, and a 10-min pelvic MRI scan. The recommended image processing pipeline utilized deep learning segmentation models to facilitate the analysis of large amount of data. This study aimed to provide a reference for planning studies based on the CHPP platform.

Purpose: In children with Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis (LCH), FDG-PET/CT is used for staging and response assessment. Whole-body MRI (WB-MRI) can serve as an ionizing radiation-free alternative for repeated whole-body imaging. The aim of this study was to compare WB-MRI with FDG-PET/CT for staging and response assessment in pediatric LCH.

Objective: Our study aimed to compare premenopausal and postmenopausal women in terms of choroidal thickness and choroidal vascularity index.

Methods: This cross-sectional study included 96 eyes of 96 participants, comprising 48 premenopausal and 48 postmenopausal women. Enhanced depth image optical coherence tomography (EDI-OCT) was used to visualize the choroid.

Sickness-induced sleep is a behavior conserved across species that promotes recovery from illness, yet the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, we show that interleukin-6-like cytokine signaling from the gut to brain glial cells regulates sleep. Under healthy conditions, this pathway promotes wakefulness.

Volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) for lung cancer involves complex multileaf collimator (MLC) motion, which increases sensitivity to interplay effects with tumour motion. Current dynamic conformal arc methods address this issue but may limit the achievable dose distribution optimisation compared with standard VMAT. This study examined the clinical utility of a VMAT technique with monitor unit limits (VMATliMU) to mimic conformal arc delivery and reduce interplay effects while maintaining plan quality.
