BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Acute invasive fungal rhinosinusitis carries a high mortality rate. An easy-to-use and accurate predictive imaging model is currently lacking. We assessed the performance of various CT findings for the identification of acute invasive fungal rhinosinusitis and synthesized a simple and robust diagnostic model to serve as an easily applicable screening tool for at-risk patients.

Moderate leukoaraiosis is associated with atypical functional activation during semantic decision tasks. Consequently, leukoaraiosis is an important confounding variable in functional MR imaging studies of elderly individuals.
