  Figure 364-03-001.  Magnetic Resonance Methods for Broadly Accessible and Accurate Liver Disease Diagnostics
Pablo Prado, Santiago Bussandri, Jerry Mabary, Lucas Cerioni, Marwan Almozuaghi, Muhammad Sheikh
Livivos Inc, San Diego, United States of America
Impact: A compact, point-of-care Magnetic Resonance method enables accurate, non-invasive quantification of liver biomarkers, broadening access to advanced diagnostics and complementing the rapid expansion of liver therapeutic development that requires reliable and deployable quantitative biomarkers.
  Figure 364-03-002.  Diffusion Tensor Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Predicts Cancer Therapy–Related Cardiac Dysfunction in Breast Cancer
Hesong Shen, Qian Xu, Huanhuan Ren, Yufei Deng, Jiuquan Zhang
Chongqing University Cancer Hospital & Chongqing Cancer Institute & Chongqing Cancer Hospital, ChongQing, China
Impact: Global E2A shows its potential as a noninvasive imaging biomarker to guide personalized surveillance and timely cardioprotective strategies in breast cancer patients.
  Figure 364-03-003.  Application of NODDI Combined with Conventional MRI in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder
Yuzhen Yu, Qiang Guo, Huiqian Song, Jun Peng, Weijian Xiong
Shaoguan First People’s Hospital, Shaoguan, China
Impact: NODDI combined with conventional MRI detected subtle neurological changes in children with ASD missed by standard scans alone. This approach offers pediatricians objective brain-based markers for earlier autism diagnosis, enabling interventions during critical developmental windows when treatments are most effective.
  Figure 364-03-004.  Assessment of the Disease Activity in Patients with Graves’ Ophthalmopathy with TSE-DWI and EPI-DWI
miaomiao ding, Wenshi Chen, Yue Xie, Xiaohong Chen, Weifeng Su, Jun Peng, Yun Su, xiang liu
Sun Yat-Sen University Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital, Guangzhou, China
Impact: TSE-DWI-derived ADC values enable superior noninvasive assessment of inflammatory activity in Graves’ ophthalmopathy, improving diagnostic accuracy and potentially guiding treatment decisions between active and inactive disease.
  Figure 364-03-005.  Assessment of Neonatal Acute Hypoxic-Ischemic Brain Damage Based on ADC and DWI-ALPS
Fangfang Chen, Mengxiao Liu
The First Affiliated Hospital of USTC, Division of Life Sciences and Medicine, University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei, China
Impact: DWI-ALPS, with short scan time and low risk, provides new evidence for diagnosing/treating neonatal acute hypoxic-ischemic brain damage.
  Figure 364-03-006.  Quantifying Longitudinal White Matter Alterations in Mild TBI with Advanced Diffusion Modeling
Alaleh Alivar, Santiago Coelho, Jenny Chen, Prin Amorapanth, Els Fieremans, Dmitry Novikov, Steven Flanagan, Joseph Rath, Yvonne Lui, Sohae Chung
Center for Advanced Imaging Innovation and Research (CAI²R), New York University Grossman School of Medicine, New York, United States of America
Impact: WM injury after mTBI is dynamic and can persist for a year; sustained microstructural changes likely reflect ongoing remodeling and compensatory adaptation accompanying clinical recovery.
  Figure 364-03-007.  Analysis and Evaluation of the Diagnostic Efficacy of MR T1ρ and ADC values in Liver Fibrosis
Jiulan Tang
Impact: 

Our research highlights the diagnostic advantage of non-invasive MRI by combining T1ρ and ADC values in assessing liver fibrosis, and emphasizing the limitations of using ADC alone.
  Figure 364-03-008.  Slow diffusion coefficient (SDC) for parotid gland tumors
DIANQI YAO, Ann Dorothy King, Yixiang Wang
The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shatin, Hong Kong
Impact: This study tested the principle of applying four b-values DWI images to generate three diffusion metrics, namely, SDC, ADC, and DDVD to evaluate PGT. A combination of these three diffusion metrics may offer clinically useful separation of MT from BT.
  Figure 364-03-009.  A Study on Predicting WHO/ISUP Nuclear Grade of Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma Using IVIM-Based Habitat Radiomics
Jiahui Wang, Heng Ma, Hao Guo, Xiuzheng Yue
Yantai Yuhuangding Hospital, Yantai, China
Impact: This study provides a novel approach for the non-invasive preoperative grading of ccRCC, which can help guide the development of personalized treatment plans and improve patient outcomes.
  Figure 364-03-010.  The Value of Multiparametric MRI Combined with Clinical Parameters in Predicting Disease-Free Survival of Endometrial Cancer
peipei Wang, Mengxiao Liu
The First Affiliated Hospital of USTC, Hefei, China
Impact: MRI-IVIM combined with clinical-pathological parameters can identify EC’s 3-year DFS, improves prediction accuracy, and supports clinical personalized, precise EC treatment.
  Figure 364-03-011.  Predicting Bone Metastasis in Prostate Cancer Using an Interpretable Habitat Radiomics Model Based on Biparametric MRI
Juntao Gong, Gang Huang
Gansu University of Chinese Medicine, Lanzhou, China
Impact: This model enables noninvasive, preoperative prediction of bone metastasis in prostate cancer, potentially guiding personalized treatment plans. Its interpretability fosters clinical trust and may reduce unnecessary invasive procedures, advancing precision oncology.
  Figure 364-03-012.  Dual-Region DTI Parameter Analysis Reveals Mechanism and Prognostic Value of Optic Nerve Injury by Intraorbital Tumors
Yatong Li, Jie Li, Qinghe Han
The Second Hospital of Jilin University, Jilin, China
Impact: Dual-region DTI of tumor and compressed optic nerve clarifies myelin- versus axonal-predominant injury and predicts postoperative visual recovery. Combined ADC, FA, and RD enable preoperative risk stratification, patient counseling, and tailored surgery/follow-up for orbital tumors.
  Figure 364-03-013.  Quantifying Intravoxel Diffusivity Probability Distribution via Probability-Constrained Regularized Non-Negative Least Square
Xiaodong Lee, Jing Zhao, Baolan Lu, Jinzhu Wang, Xuegang Xin
School of Medicine, South China University of Technology, China
Impact: The proposed IDPD model offers a noninvasive approach to explore tissue microstructure by quantifying intravoxel diffusivity distributions, overcoming the limitations of traditional diffusion MRI. It holds potential for differentiating tissue types and aiding the diagnosis of tumors and neurodegenerative diseases.
