Lenvatinib rechallenge in a patient with advanced thymic carcinoma: A case report
We present a case treated with “lenvatinib rechallenge” for advanced thymic carcinoma who was previously treated with lenvatinib followed by multiple cytotoxic agents. Shortly after lenvatinib rechallenge, rapid pleural and pericardial effusion reduction was observed. Our case might suggest lenvatinib rechallenge as a treatment option for patients with

Motion-resolved fat-fraction mapping with whole-heart free-running multiecho gre and pilot tone [PDF]
PURPOSE To develop free-running multi-echo GRE for cardiac- and respiratory-motion-resolved whole-heart fat fraction quantification. METHODS Multi-echo readouts optimized for water-fat separation and quantification were integrated within a non-ECG-triggered free-breathing 3D radial GRE acquisition.

Pericardial computed tomography imaging findings in the setting of coccidioidomycosis
Background Pericardial disease can be a manifestation of infection and imaging can have a role in its diagnosis. coccidioidomycosis endemic fungal infection has been more frequently reported over the past few decades.

We present the case of an elderly man with thymic small‐cell carcinoma, a thymic neuroendocrine tumor, where multidisciplinary treatment, including chemotherapy comprising carboplatin and etoposide, and salvage surgery, was considered effective. Chest computed tomography scans show that 4 months after initiation of chemotherapy, the tumor and pleural ...

Recently, the addition of anti‐programmed cell death‐ligand 1 (PD‐L1) monoclonal antibodies, including durvalumab and atezolizumab to platinum‐based chemotherapy, has demonstrated clinical benefits in patients with untreated advanced small cell lung cancer (SCLC). However, these clinical trials comprised small populations of elderly patients with SCLC.

The importance of the pericardium for cardiac biomechanics: From physiology to computational modeling [PDF]
The human heart is enclosed in the pericardial cavity. The pericardium consists of a layered thin sac and is separated from the myocardium by a thin film of fluid. It provides a fixture in space and frictionless sliding of the myocardium. The influence of the pericardium is essential for predictive mechanical simulations of the heart. However, there is
