Fetal LLSIR on T2-weighted MRI is an accurate marker of fetal lung maturity that correlates with postnatal survival and can potentially be used as a prognostic parameter in CDH management.
After reviewing the latest CT scans of 23 mostly low grade glioma patients who survived more than 10 years after treatment, it was suggested that loss of the original tumour bulk and frequently the presence of porencephalic cavity replacing the original tumour, with a smooth lining which is not contrast-enhanced is essential to assume a clinical "cure" in the case of intrinsic cerebral gliomas. In the case of gliomas growing within the ventricle or subarachnoid space, tissue with calcium deposit but without contrast-enhancement was noted, although the number of cases was limited.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
