+# ITK 5.4.3 Release Notes
+
+We are pleased to announce the release of [ITK 5.4.3](https://docs.itk.org), the latest maintenance update for this cross-platform, open-source toolkit supporting N-dimensional scientific image analysis with spatially-aware algorithms. 🎉 🍻 🥳 This patch release addresses several key issues identified since ITK 5.4.2 while maintaining API stability.
+
+🔦 Highlights
+-------------
+
+As a maintenance update following 5.4.2, version 5.4.3 incorporates critical improvements including:
+
+- **Bug Fixes**: Resolved issues affecting the default number of threads, particularly in multi-threaded image processing pipelines where thread limits were not respected, and corrected the b-spline size calculation for closed parametric dimensions, ensuring accurate interpolation in applications such as 3D image registration and deformation modeling.
+- **License Fixes**: Removed unused VNL Netlib rpoly files to ensure compliance with our Apache 2.0 licensing requirements.
+- **Software Guide Updates**: Spelling corrections for the [ITK Software Guide](https://github.com/InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITKSoftwareGuide/releases).
+- **Doxygen Documentation**: Updated Doxygen documentation to reflect the [latest changes and improvements in ITK](https://docs.itk.org/en/latest/releases/5.4.0.html), including links to the [ReadTheDocs site](https://docs.itk.org/projects/doxygen/).
+- **Remote Module Updates**: Improvements to the [`LabelErodeDilate`](https://github.com/InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITKLabelErodeDilate) and [`MeshToPolyData`](https://github.com/InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITKMeshToPolyData) remote modules, including bug fixes and enhancements.
