Objective: Malignant wounds develop when neoplastic cells invade the skin either locally or by lymphatic and haematogenous spread. They can present as hard-to-heal underlying causes include: primary cancer; metastasis of extracutaneous malignancy; malignant transformation a wound; iatrogenic injury; cutaneous forms cancers non-skin origin. High clinical suspicion for wound should be confirmed with biopsy. The aim this case series is to highlight combination both clinically clear malignancies...

Introduction: Transplantation is a field with unique medical and administrative challenges that involve an equally diverse array of stakeholders. Expectantly, the litigation stemming from this should be similarly nuanced. There paucity comprehensive reviews characterizing medicolegal landscape.

The aim of this case report is to investigate an uncommon presentation Rosai-Dorfman-Destombes (RDD) disease, and discuss possible differential diagnoses treatment options for pathology. RDD a rare disorder histiocytes that typically presents in patients as painless cervical lymphadenopathy. However, involves patient with the central nervous system (CNS) type who later developed cutaneous lesions.

Abstract Introduction: Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE) is currently used to evaluate neoadjuvant therapy response of breast cancer (1). However, DCE requires expert radiologist readers assess the change in longest tumor dimension during therapy, as well administration Gadolinium contrast agents. One modality that does not require agents diffusion-weighted (DWI), a method detects microscopic diffusion water molecules. commonly DWI apparent coefficient (ADC) fully optimised (2). The...

CaliberMRI’s multiparametric quantitative breast MRI phantom was scanned with a standard protocol, including DWI, at seven clinical sites as part of quality control program. Protocol adherence assessed. ADC values for fibroglandular and malignant tissue DWI mimics were calculated corrected temperature using the qCal software, summary reports generated. Inter- intra-site variations in derived from scans acquired longitudinally over last 16 months provided information that can be used to...

756 Background: The incidence of pancreatic cancer among young adults has sharply risen over the past decade. Young often utilize online educational media, such as YouTube videos, for information about their disease. These may be subject to a high degree bias and misinformation; previous analyses have demonstrated low quality other cancer-related videos. Thus, we sought determine if patients can rely on videos accurate cancer, compared relevant with those published by NCI-designated centers...

Pancreatic panniculitis is a rare skin manifestation of pancreatic disease. It characterized by inflammation and liquefactive necrosis subcutaneous fat. Treatment involves addressing the underlying cause providing supportive wound care.The authors present case 68-year-old man who developed painful, erythematous wounds on his lower extremities that progressed to purple, edematous lesions with purulent drainage. During progression wounds, he epigastric pain acute pancreatitis. Subsequent CT...

Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) acquired with echo-planar (EPI) is utilized in breast MRI protocols to evaluate cancer lesions. While clinical implementation limited by the distortion artifacts which affect EPI, methods such as reverse polarity gradient (RPG) and data collection reduced field-of-view (FOV) have been used reduce distortion. Evaluating these minimizing for images parallel (PI) a promising approach improve EPI-DWI imaging. Here, we evaluated magnitude of collected without PI...

Establishing ADC repeatability is important for clinical translation of quantitative DWI. Pelvic in healthy men and premenopausal women are not well-defined. Four were scanned twice six each week their normal 28-day menstrual cycle using a 3.0T scanner. Prostate, cervix, uterine tissue ROIs drawn to calculate median values. Minimum reliably detectable change (RC) was estimated at 16% 11% within the prostatic peripheral transition zones, respectively. Female reproductive ADCs varied across...

Diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) holds great potential in improving specificity of findings detected on contrast enhanced breast MRI. Restriction spectrum (RSI), an advanced diffusion model, has discriminating between malignant and fibroglandular tissue. In this abstract, we evaluate RSI’s performance differentiating from benign lesions a prospective study performed screening population. All were biopsy proven. The RSI model allowed discrimination malignant, high-risk low-risk healthy
