Andrew, yes, what you suggested was the first thing I did. Just changed it to
xdmp:directory("/data/store/items/",
"infinity")//it...@type='title'][starts-with(., 'Radiology']
And found out it works then fine for both 3.2 and 4.1.

Are you sure the problem is the ampersand? What happens if you sanity
check that it should return something (for example change the
predicate to [starts-with(., 'Radiology')] )
