Of 101 included patients, the 4 subgroups of >6 were the following: chemotherapy (n = 35), opiates (n = 19), acute hepatic encephalopathy (n = 14), and immunosuppressants (n = 11). Other causes (n = 22 total) notably included carbon monoxide (n = 3) metronidazole (n = 2), and uremia (n = 1). Acute hepatic/hyperammonemic encephalopathy clinically resolved in 36%, with severe outcomes in 23% (coma or death, 9/16 deaths from fludarabine). Notable laboratory results were elevated CSF myelin basic protein levels in 8/9 patients and serum blood urea nitrogen levels in 24/91. Acute toxic leukoencephalopathy is an imaging appearance that can arise from various etiologies, with potentially reversible reduced diffusion predominately affecting the periventricular WM. Given the shared DWI appearance among this heterogeneous array of etiologies, their outcomes may differ. Thus, the neurologic symptoms completely resolved in 36%, while severe outcomes occurred in 23%. The clinical outcome was most severe with chemotherapy-related ATL.

The purpose of this study was to develop a fast, automated method for assessing rescan need in motion-corrupted brain series. A deep learning–based approach was developed, outputting a probability for a series to be clinically useful. Comparison of this per-series probability with a threshold, which can depend on scan indication and reading radiologist, determines whether a series needs to be rescanned. The deep learning classification performance was compared with that of 4 technologists and 5 radiologists in 49 test series with low and moderate motion artifacts. Fast, automated deep learning–based image-quality rating can decrease rescan and recall rates, while rendering them technologist-independent. It was estimated that decreasing rescans and recalls from the technologists' values to the values of deep learning could save hospitals $24,000/scanner/year.
