TL;DR: In this contribution, the technical bases of IR are reviewed and the currently available algorithms released by the major CT manufacturers are described and the current status of their clinical implementation is surveyed.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarize available evidence on the predictive value of CT severity parameters for short-term clinical outcome in pulmonary embolism and find that an abnormally increased RV/left ventricular diameter ratio measured on transverse sections was associated with an approximately 2.5-fold risk for all-cause mortality (pooled odds ratio [OR],2.5; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.8-3.5) and adverse outcome (OR, 2.6-3).

TL;DR: Texture parameters derived from T2w images of rectal cancer have the potential to act as imaging biomarkers of tumoral response to neoadjuvant CRT.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used grating-based dark-field images of emphysematous vs. healthy lung tissue to monitor the morphological changes that the alveoli network undergoes in the progression of these diseases, which is related to small-angle scattering in the sample.

TL;DR: The CT-based FFR algorithm evaluated here outperforms standard evaluation of cCTA for the detection of hemodynamically significant stenoses while allowing on-site application within clinically viable time frames.
