DNA methylation is the gold standard for diagnosing brain gliomas. T2Flair mismatch sign can help correctly diagnose IDHmutant Astrocytoma almost 100% PPV pre-operatively. Histopathology & immunostaining is not perfect. This case shows clinical impact of T2F mismatch sign.

Last weekend at @theASFNR, my son, @AnderssonH27121, and I were on the same program for the first time. Of all the meetings I have been honored to speak at over the years, this one was the most meaningful because of his presence.

Hayden, a pre-med junior at @UCSanDiego, is an edical scribe in a neurology practice, and President of the UCSD Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Club.

As lead author, he presented his first abstract, “Quantitative MRI After Long-Duration Spaceflight,” coauthored with his outstanding mentor, @BrainsOnMars, former Deputy Chief Scientist of the International Space Station National Laboratory, and me. Comparing pre- and post-flight MRI in 41 astronauts, the study measured quantitative biomarkers, and found measurable structural changes after long-duration missions.

I had the privilege of speaking on “#Precision #Neuroradiology: #AI Powered Objectivity and Insights.” I also spoke at the @Bayer sponsored Lunch & Learn on the “Era of Ultra-High Relaxivity: Contemporary GBCAs in Clinical Practice,” hosted by @Applied_Rad.

The social events were wonderful too, and playing poker with Hayden at the After Dark Party was a highlight!

Congratulations to President-Elect Dr. Vince Kumar for organizing such a wonderful meeting, and thank you to President Dr. @CoolAsANeuroRad for his leadership. A huge congratulations as well to founding #ASFNR President Dr. @AndreiHolodny, the inaugural Gold Medal recipient. So well deserved!

From a founding president receiving the society's first Gold Medal to a student presenting his very first abstract, this meeting celebrated our field at every stage of a career. I am already looking forward to next year.

#ASFNR26 offered engaging workshops, informative talks, revealing research, and thoughtful discussions on topics ranging from advanced #neuroradiology techniques to finance. Fun and games with trainees, colleagues, and celebrity leaders in Newport Beach were a highlight.
