(1) Background: This study investigates the early evaluation value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) in diagnosing the recurrence of bladder cancer (BC) ...
To investigate the diagnostic performance of clinical manifestations and multidetector computed tomographic (MDCT) features in detecting predictors of malignant intussusception in adults....
We retrospectively reviewed 88 adults with 91 intussusceptions who were diagnosed by MDCT. Their clinical manifestations and MDCT features were reviewed and compared between the malignant and benign g...
There were 61 patients in the malignant group and 27 patients in the benign group. The malignant group had older age (mean, 62.61 vs 54.22 years, P = 0.014), more colon-related intussusception (89.06%...
Malignant intussusception can be identified using independent predictors such as intussusception length, maximum short axis diameter, non-round/oval and non-hypodense lead point. When integrating thes...
Soft-tissue defects in the hand and digits can be effectively covered by using the free superficial palmar branch of the radial artery (SPBRA) flap, which is harvested from the radial volar wrist. Bec...
This retrospective anatomical study was conducted from 2014 to 2019. All data from Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine were analyzed by using their viewer. SPBRA diameter and the location w...
In total, 30 patients met all eligibility criteria. All had the SPBRA. The vessel bifurcated from the radial artery on average 13.2 mm proximally from the radial styloid process. The 30 patients had 4...
All patients had at least one reliable SPBRA perforator in the radial volar wrist. The authors' results suggest that plastic surgeons can easily and safely plan the SPBRA flap design, potentially with...
To retrospectively assess the feasibility, safety, renal function, technique efficacy rate, and survival of patients with clinical T3a renal cell carcinoma (RCC)....
Sixteen cryoablation sessions were performed in 14 patients (10 men; mean age, 69.8 ± 10.5 years; range, 49-90 years) with 14 clear cell T3a RCCs (mean, 3.3 ± 0.9 cm; range, 1.9-5.2 cm). One patient w...
Cryoablation was technically successful in all RCC cases. In two RCCs, cryoablation was performed twice because of local tumor progression. No major adverse events were observed. All patients were ali...
Cryoablation was safe and effective in T3a RCC, which mainly involved the renal venous branches and may represent an alternative treatment for inoperable patients....
Background Acute intestinal obstruction is a commonly encountered surgical emergency that is prevalent worldwide and has substantial morbidity and fatality rates. Therefore, swift and precise diagnosi...
Maxillofacial fractures are among the commonest injuries occurring in trauma patients. Multislice computed tomography (CT) is a widely used radiological investigation that accurately reveals the numbe...
This was a cross-sectional descriptive study conducted on 49 adult patients with maxillofacial injuries undergoing multislice CT using a multidetector SiemensSOMATOM Emotion eco 16 slice CT scanner (S...
The maximum number of cases was in the age group of 21-30 years with the male: female ratio being 5.12:1. The most common cause of injury was road traffic accidents (RTA). Mandible fractures were foun...
Multidetector CT with multiplanar and 3D reformation is highly accurate in the identification of fractures and assessing the extent and degree of displacement of fractures; hence, it is the imaging mo...
When postoperative multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) imaging of patients with craniosynostosis is used, it is usually performed a few days after surgery in a radiology department. This requires a...
This single-center retrospective study compared radiation dose and image quality of postoperative imaging performed using conventional MSCT scanners and O-arm CBCT....
A total of 104 pediatric syndromic and non-syndromic patients who were operated on because of single- or multiple-suture craniosynostosis were included in this study. The mean volumetric CT dose index...
CBCT resulted in significantly lower CTDI...
The O-arm device allowed for an immediate postoperative CBCT examination in the operating theater using the same anesthesia induction. Radiation exposure was lower in CBCT compared to MSCT scans, thus...
To compare multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) and dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) imaging findings in gastrointestinal (GI) tuberculosis....
To study imaging findings of MDCT and DECT in GI tuberculosis....
All the patients falling in the sampling frame and fulfilling the eligibility criteria were clinically examined and demographic details, presenting complaints, medical history, history of anti-tubercu...
The findings of the study showed that both MDCT, as well as DECT, were useful in the diagnosis of GI tuberculosis. On the basis of these findings, DECT could be considered to have an edge over MDCT in...
Thymus is a T-cell-producing lymphoid organ that appears prominent in the paediatric population and involutes in size with ageing. The gland shows a wide variety of appearances across different age gr...
This is a retrospective study done after taking approval from the Institutional Ethics Committee. Patients undergone CT scans of the thorax were identified from our database. All evaluations were done...
Four hundred and fifty patients were included, 262 (58.2%) were male. Mean age was 33.6 ± 17.1 years, range (3 months-80 years). The size of thymus was observed to decrease with increasing age. The me...
Even normal thymus can show varied appearance on CT which changes with the age of the patient being imaged. A comparison with normative data could help differentiate normal from abnormal glands to avo...
The pericardium comprises a double-walled fibrous-serosal sac that encloses the heart. Reflections of the serosal layer form sinuses and recesses. With advances in multidetector computed tomography (C...
