Abstract Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has taken a center stage in the armamentarium of rectal cancer evaluation. Rectal staging undergone paradigm shift from surgico-pathological approach to chemo-radiological one, helping effectively stratify patients for appropriate management. Primary lesion characterization, its morphology and internal characteristics, proximity tumor mesorectal fascia, presence extramural venous invasion, extra pelvic lymph nodes, involvement peritoneum distant...

Abstract Visceral artery pseudoaneurysms are potentially lethal lesions and tend to rupture in a high proportion of cases, thereby warranting an immediate active intervention. We present our experience splanchnic visceral university hospital over 5-year time interval with emphasis on etiology, clinical presentation, management (endovascular/surgical), final outcome. This was retrospective study which we searched image database for arteries period 5 years. The operative details were retrieved...

Congenital webs are extremely rare anomalies of the extrahepatic ductal system. As vast majority such cases asymptomatic, detection is usually incidental during surgery for some other cause. In a young boy presenting with features cholangitis, congenital common bile duct web was discovered on T-tube cholangiogram. Further intrahepatic and pancreatic systems were also detected. Since all known causes acquired formation excluded, origin assumed patient continuing to do well after follow-up 22 months.

Background & objectives: Haemoptysis in children is potentially life-threatening. In most cases, the bleeding arises from systemic circulation, and 5-10 per cent of it pulmonary circulation. The role computed tomography angiography (CTA) this setting important.

Homocystinuria is a genetic inborn error of metabolism due to the deficiency cystathionine β-synthase resulting in increased serum homocysteine and methionine decreased cysteine which predisposes affected individuals arterial venous thromboembolic phenomena. We present case homocystinuria who presented us as calcified right atrial mass during evaluation for lower respiratory tract infection. Our reveals an unusual mix findings using imaging with multiple detector computed tomography radiographs.

Background Pneumothorax is the most common complication of computed tomography (CT)-guided lung biopsy. The asymptomatic rate ranges from 17.5 to 72%. symptomatic requiring chest tube insertion 6 18%. Aims This article studies role management postbiopsy pneumothoraces by needle aspiration and pigtail catheter insertion. Methods was a prospective observational study conducted over 2 years. Postbiopsy prior withdrawing coaxial cannula CT data set obtained detect quantify as mild, moderate,...

Abstract Purpose This article evaluates the feasibility, safety, and technical success of robot-assisted computed tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous lung biopsy. Methods CT-guided biopsy was performed after clearance from institutional ethical committee in 60 patients who were assigned to two groups, group A (robot-assisted biopsy) B (conventional biopsy). The accuracy needle placement, number adjustments, radiation dose, procedure time, complications compared both these groups. Results In...

Wandering spleen is a rare entity and can be great imitator. Varied presentations have been described. We present case, the first in our center, with pelvic associated splenic vein torsion secondary gastric varices. Presentation of patient was haematemesis which settled after splenectomy.

Amyloidosis is a systemic disease involving many organs. Cardiac involvement significant cause of morbidity and mortality in these patients. Diagnosis cardiac amyloidosis based on endomyocardial biopsy which however invasive associated with complications. Noninvasive methods diagnosis include magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) various sequences involved. Our study aims at describing MRI features including new to prognosticate the patients features. We included 35 suspected who underwent our...

Aims And Objectives: We evaluated the role of Dyna CT in localizing HCC lesions and their selective vascular supply to help guide chemoembolization. also assessing drug deposition within lesion predict need further delivery. Methods: 24 patients with documented were taken up for TACE after a pre-procedural contrast MRI. An intra-procedural was done all obtain three dimensional overview network. Selective cannulation tumor arteries achieved using combined digital subtraction angiography image...

Limited intimal tears of the aorta presenting as acute aortic syndrome are notoriously difficult to diagnose prospectively, reported elude all cross-sectional imaging techniques. Although this entity has been included in AHA classification dissection (class 3), is thought be rare and remains largely unknown radiologists clinicians JMS 2016; 19(1):34

Cystic echinococcosis is a disease of animals and humans caused by the larval stage Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato has substantial public health impact globally. The condition considered neglected tropical (NTD) zoonotic (NZD), prioritized World Health Organization (WHO) 1.Within last 10 years, advancements have taken place in biology genetics, including delineation new species within E.granulosus (s.l.)2,3 full sequencing E. sensustricto. 2 Consequently, researchers are now provided...

The radiation risk is higher for children than adults, as children's tissues have a cell division rate, and cells can be damaged during this process. Children's bodies also water content therefore absorb more radiation, which cause damage to their genes. There are differences in the location of particularly at-risk such hematopoietic bone marrow. In 74% (spine ribs, pelvis) located skeleton or trunk, only 9% extremities. infants, 29% trunk 35% extremities.In 8% cranial bones; 27%. This means...
