    Abstract Diseases of pleura are not only common but also have a significant impact on patients' outcomes. While early detection and treatment are imperative in reducing this burden, many pleural entities present similarly, thus posing a diagnostic dilemma for radiologists requiring critical further workup. While chest radiography, CT, and image-guided thoracentesis are primarily utilized as the initial imaging techniques for the workup of pleural diseases, MRI, and FDG-PET/CT are also frequently employed to investigate the root cause of pleural abnormalities. By elucidating the common imaging features of neoplastic, inflammatory, and infectious pleural pathologies, clinicians can quickly and easily differentiate the various pleural diseases, rapidly reach the correct diagnosis, and ultimately improve patient outcomes.

    Abstract Background Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is the leading cause of disability in young adults. Recurrent TBI is associated with a range of neurologic sequelae, but the contributing factors behind the development of such chronic encephalopathy are poorly understood. Purpose To quantify early amyloid β deposition in the brain of otherwise healthy adult men exposed to repeated subconcussive blast injury using amyloid PET. Materials and Methods In this prospective study from January 2020 to December 2021, military instructors who were routinely exposed to repeated blast events were evaluated at two different points: baseline (before blast exposure from breacher or grenade) and approximately 5 months after baseline (after blast exposure). Age-matched healthy control participants not exposed to blasts and without a history of brain injury were evaluated at similar two points. Neurocognitive evaluation was performed with standard neuropsychologic testing in both groups. Analysis of PET data consisted of standardized uptake value measurements in six relevant brain regions and a whole-brain voxel-based statistical approach. Results Participants were men (nine control participants [median age, 33 years; IQR, 32-36 years] and nine blast-exposed participants [median age, 33 years; IQR, 30-34 years];

    Abstract The digitization of radiographic studies along with high-speed transmission of images has formed the basis of teleradiology, which has become an integral component in the workflow of a contemporary radiology practice. It is with this advent and growing utilization of teleradiology that the significance of the source location of images has gained importance. Specifically, the importance of where the patient resides and what endemic fungi occur in that location cannot be underestimated. In the United States, histoplasmosis, coccidioidomycosis, blastomycosis, and cryptococcosis are caused by endemic fungi occurring in the Ohio and Mississippi river valleys, the Southwest, the Upper Midwest, and the Pacific Northwest, respectively. All of these organisms enter the body through the respiratory system and have the potential to cause significant morbidity and mortality. Patients infected with these fungi are often asymptomatic but may present with acute flulike symptoms such as fever, cough, or dyspnea. Patients may also present with vague chronic symptoms including cough, fever, malaise, and weight loss. Thoracic manifestations at radiography and CT include consolidation, nodules, cavities, lymphadenopathy, and pleural disease. PET may show fluorine 18-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake with active acute or chronic infections, and it is difficult to distinguish infections from malignancy. Imaging findings may be nonspecific and can be confused with other disease processes, including malignancy. The patient demographics, clinical history, and location are clues that may lead to a proper diagnosis of endemic fungal disease. The radiologist should be cognizant of the patient location to provide a correct and timely radiologic diagnosis that helps guide the clinician to initiate appropriate therapy.
