This review discusses recent advances in biomedical imaging for cancer research, particularly highlighting improved imaging tools for studying solid tissue malignancies, and reports no new clinical results.

This case report highlights the challenge of distinguishing between neuropsychiatric lupus and rituximab-associated progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy in systemic lupus erythematosus patients, emphasizing the importance of early recognition and careful management.

This case study found that a 1.6cm ovarian Leydig cell tumor, causing hyperandrogenism in a postmenopausal woman, evaded detection on standard imaging techniques, underscoring the difficulty of diagnosing such tumors with imaging alone.

This case report highlights that in postmenopausal women with severe hyperandrogenism, thorough adrenal and pelvic evaluations, hormonal profiling, and permanent pathology are essential for accurate diagnosis and management of androgen-secreting tumors, such as AGCTs, to prevent misdiagnosis and ensure effective treatment.

The document concludes that accurate diagnosis of male and female gonadal disorders is crucial for effective treatment and better patient outcomes.

This retrospective study found that serum hormone levels and MRI detection of ovarian nodules contributed to distinguishing virilizing ovarian tumors from ovarian stromal hyperthecosis in postmenopausal women, though histopathology remains crucial for diagnosis.

This case report describes a 60-year-old woman with an ovarian Leydig cell tumor leading to elevated testosterone levels and hirsutism, highlighting the need to consider androgen-secreting tumors in similar postmenopausal cases.

This review discusses various treatments for androgenic alopecia, highlighting FDA-approved options and other commonly used therapies, but reports no new clinical results.

More biopsy cores and MRI before biopsy can improve prostate cancer detection.

Rare earth elements are crucial in medical imaging and cancer treatment.

This case report describes a challenging diagnosis of Cushing’s syndrome using endocrine tests and imaging, which ultimately identified an adrenal etiology. Successful treatment involved a non-invasive desmopressin stimulation test and right adrenalectomy, leading to improvement in symptoms and health outcomes for the patient.

This case report describes a 3-year-old boy with trichothiodystrophy, highlighting specific MRI findings of diffuse dysmyelination and osteosclerosis that may be unique to the disorder.

This study reports a case of constrictive pericarditis associated with COVID-19, highlighting the need for imaging, biomarkers, and histology for effective evaluation and treatment decisions.

This study discusses promising research advancements that may improve treatment outcomes for glioblastomas, highlighting stereotactic radiosurgery, FET-PET imaging, and alternating electric field therapy as potential strategies. The abstract emphasizes the need for ongoing and future trials to determine their effectiveness in clinical practice.

This case report documents a rare fatal instance of Rapunzel syndrome in a child, highlighting the use of postmortem CT and MRI to reveal trichobezoar-related bowel obstructions and perforations as the cause of death.

In this case report, the researchers described a postmenopausal woman with androgenic symptoms who was found to have a benign Leydig cell tumor of the left ovary, indicated by elevated testosterone levels and MRI findings, which was successfully treated with surgery.

Among postmenopausal women, this case study observed that a rare ovarian tumor called thecoma, found via MRI, was associated with high testosterone levels and symptoms of mild virilization such as hirsutism, indicating surgery as the primary treatment.

This clinical case report identifies xanthomatous hypophysitis in a male patient, highlighting the mismatch between clinical symptoms and MRI findings, which led to a pituitary biopsy and accurate diagnosis instead of unnecessary surgery.

This case report describes a 77-year-old woman with female pattern hair loss and elevated testosterone levels, who showed no improvement with minoxidil and lacked adrenal tumors on imaging.

In this animal study, atorvastatin co-administered with trastuzumab reversed trastuzumab-induced cognitive impairment (chemo-brain) and improved its anti-cancer efficacy without causing hair loss.

In this case report, researchers described a patient with Cushing's Disease exhibiting no detectable mass, where Metyrapone therapy was effectively used to manage symptoms, suggesting a treatment option for similar diagnostic challenges.

In this case report, a 38-year-old woman with Parry–Romberg syndrome displayed left-sided facial atrophy and subclinical central nervous system involvement detectable by neuroimaging, suggesting that even symptom-free cases may benefit from systematic brain evaluations.

Doctors used a special blood sampling technique to diagnose a woman's rare ovarian tumor that was producing male hormones.

This review discusses the evolution of surgical robotics and examines the potential and current limitations of autonomous and intelligent systems in robotic-assisted surgeries.

This review discusses the characteristics, diagnostic challenges, and management options for postmenopausal hyperandrogenism but reports no new clinical results; it highlights the importance of distinguishing potential androgen-producing tumors or hyperandrogenic disorders.

This source critically examines the limitations of using BMI to assess obesity in women, especially during reproductive, pregnancy, and postmenopausal stages, and discusses more precise alternative methods for evaluating obesity in line with sex-specific healthcare needs.

This research explores innovative methods to enhance drug delivery to the brain, including techniques like focal intra-arterial administration and temporary blood-brain barrier opening, aimed at improving treatment for brain disorders, the authors report.

This study identifies a mechanism where dsRNA activates TLR3 to induce RA production, promoting hair follicle regeneration in mice and suggesting a potential role in human tissue regeneration.

This case report describes a 5-day-old male infant with a constellation of symptoms, including leptomeningeal angiomatosis, hair follicle nevus, and congenital alopecia, potentially representing a novel neurocutaneous syndrome.

This case report and literature review describes a 27-year-old woman with a Sertoli Leydig cell tumor causing testosterone-related symptoms and highlights normalization of hormone levels after surgical treatment.
