Leukemia in Older Adults: Global, National, and Regional Disease Burden Patterns During 1990–2019 and Forecasted Trends to 2030

open access: yesMedicine Advances, EarlyView.
After analyzing the burden of leukemia in the elderly aged 60–89 years from 1990 to 2019 using the Global Burden of Disease database, we found that although the burden of chronic myeloid leukemia has decreased over the past 30 years, the burden of other types of leukemia has continued to increase to varying degrees.

Clinically Feasible White Matter Fiber Tractography in Peritumoral Zones With Cerebral Vasogenic Edema

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose In diffusion MRI, vasogenic edema manifests as a major fraction of isotropic water that dilutes the anisotropic intra‐axonal portion of the signal. Many tractography algorithms mistake vasogenic edema for the white matter boundary and terminate tracking to prevent producing spurious streamlines.
