AI edit vs original. The gap is getting real.

If/when this translates to medical imaging:
Segmentation: auto-separate background/foreground to segment tumors, ventricles, vessels, cranial nerves
Super-resolution
Artifact reduction

Unusual, rare, and often overlooked - that is exactly why I believe in the power of a well-documented case report.

Our recent publication in Practical Neurology highlights a striking example: Skull base tuberculosis as a rare cause of occipital condyle syndrome.
