Among intracranial hemorrhage subtypes, epidural hematomas (EDHs) are relatively uncommon but require careful evaluation due to their potential for expansion and the need for surgical intervention. This study aimed to identify risk factors for initial EDH size, subsequent enlargement, and the need for surgical intervention to guide imaging and treatment strategies.</p><p><strong>Materials and methods: </strong>We conducted a retrospective review of 32,401 noncontrast head CT reports from 2 trauma centers (The Johns Hopkins Hospital and Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center) between 2018 and 2024.

This study aimed to evaluate whether dFDG-PET can serve as a noninvasive tool to detect <i>MYD88</i> mutation-driven glycolytic activity in PCNSL.</p><p><strong>Materials and methods: </strong>We retrospectively analyzed the imaging and molecular data of 54 patients with PCNSL (55 lesions). MRI and FDG-PET parameters, including the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) and tumor-to-background ratio (TBR), were assessed. Tumor specimens were subjected to histopathological and genomic evaluations, including the <i>MYD88</i> mutation status.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Among 55 tumors, 34 (61.8%) were examined with dFDG-PET and 21 (38.2%) with analog <sup>18</sup>F-FDG-PET (aFDG-PET). In the dFDG-PET group, <i>MYD88</i>-mutant tumors showed significantly higher SUVmax (30.2 ± 9.9) and TBR (6.1 ± 1.5) compared to wild-type tumors (SUVmax: 19.3 ± 7.2, <i>P</i> = 0.006; TBR: 3.5 ± 1.3, <i>P</i> < 0.001). In the aFDG-PET group, the SUVmax was significantly higher in <i>MYD88</i>-mutant tumors (<i>P</i> = 0.01), whereas the TBR differences were not statistically significant (<i>P</i> = 0.38). Receiver operating characteristic analysis of TBR in dFDG-PET yielded an area under the curve of 0.913 (95% CI: 0.954-1.000) with a cutoff value of 4.49, achieving 88% sensitivity and 88% specificity for <i>MYD88</i> mutation detection. Multivariate logistic regression identified SUVmax and TBR from dFDG-PET as independent predictors of <i>MYD88</i> mutation status. The transcriptomic analysis confirmed the significant upregulation of glycolysis-related genes, including <i>hexokinase 2</i>, in <i>MYD88</i>-mutant tumors, supporting increased glycolytic activity.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>dFDG-PET may serve as a valuable noninvasive imaging modality to detect <i>MYD88</i> mutation-driven enhanced glycolysis in patients with PCNSL.</p><p><strong>Abbreviations: </strong>dPET= Digital positron emission tomography; PCNSL= Primary central nervous system lymphoma; SUVmax=maximum standardized uptake value; TBR= tumor-to background ratio.</p>","PeriodicalId":93863,"journal":{"name":"AJNR.
