Multicenter Validation Study of the Clinical Diagnostic Criteria for IgG4‐Related Sclerosing Cholangitis 2020 in Japan

Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The diagnostic performance of clinical diagnostic criteria for IgG4‐related sclerosing cholangitis 2020 (IgG4‐SC2020) has not been fully validated since its proposal as a revision of the 2012 criteria (IgG4‐SC2012). Methods We conducted a multicenter validation study to evaluate the diagnostic performance of IgG4‐SC2020 using ...

Motion Mitigation Techniques for Abdominal and Cardiac MR Imaging

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT MRI of the heart and abdominal organs provides unparalleled soft tissue contrast and quantitative biomarkers, yet remains highly susceptible to physiological motion. Contractions of the myocardium, respiratory excursions, peristalsis, vascular pulsatility, and unpredictable bulk patient movement generate artifacts that impair image quality ...
