The mechanisms of action incretin mimetics in patients with long-standing type 2 diabetes (T2D) and high insulin requirements have not been studied.To evaluate changes β-cell function, glucagon secretion, fat distribution after addition liraglutide to high-dose insulin.A single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.University Texas Southwestern Parkland Memorial Hospital clinics.Seventy-one (median, 17 years) T2D requiring treatment (>1.5 U/kg/d; average, 2.2 ± 0.9...
The purpose of this article is to evaluate the incidence contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) and effects associated risk factors in patients with multiple myeloma undergoing contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) IV administration nonionic iodinated contrast agent.This retrospective review medical records identified a diagnosis who underwent CECT examination chest, abdomen, or pelvis between January 1, 2005, December 2008. Analysis for CIN, as defined by an increase creatinine level after 25% more, 0.5...
The incidental small renal mass (SRM; ≤4 cm; clinical T stage [cT]1a) has become increasingly common due to the widespread utilisation of ultrasonography and cross-sectional imaging. Today, most such patients present with asymptomatic, localised disease that can be surgically treated curative intent; however, up 25% SRMs are benign [1]. This creates a dilemma: balancing removal malignant tumours avoiding needless active treatment for masses. 'BJUI Clinical Dilemma' presents structured format...
To evaluate growth kinetics of asymptomatic small (<2 cm) incidental pancreatic cysts and to assess potential implications these in the context current American College Radiology recommendations.This institutional review board-approved HIPAA-compliant retrospective study with waiver informed consent included patients (diameter, 5-20 mm) two or more magnetic resonance (MR) examinations performed at least 6 months apart a tertiary institution. The largest cyst dimension was measured on...
The aim of this study was to compare the anatomical registration preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and prostate whole-mount obtained with 3D-printed, patient-specific, MRI-derived molds (PSM) versus conventional sectioning (WMS).Based on an a priori power analysis, institutional review board-approved prospectively included 50 consecutive men who underwent 3 T multiparametric MRI followed by radical prostatectomy. Two blinded independent readers (R1 R2) outlined contours prostate,...
Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) is considered by experts as one of the key elements in multi-parametric magnetic resonance (mpMRI) employed oncological studies outside brain. A low-to-high b value ratio DWI has been proposed an approach to decrease acquisition time and simplify analysis data without need use a mathematical model.Forty-three men with biopsy-proven prostate cancer (PCa) who underwent mpMRI were included. Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps created MRI scanner using...
To compare a simplified intravoxel incoherent motion (sIVIM) model to commonly used monoexponential and biexponential models in the characterization of prostate cancer (PCa) noncancerous tissues, investigate combinations diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) measures with dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) magnetic resonance (MRI)-derived parameters MRI-visible index lesions, facilitate PCa risk stratification.In this retrospective, Institutional Review Board (IRB)-approved study, 43 consecutive...
The objective of our study was to compare MDCT angiography protocols used in patients with acute chest pain caused by vascular, nonvascular, and cardiac abnormalities.In four groups 20 each, were based on monitoring vascular attenuation: pulmonary embolism (150 H at artery), aortic dissection (200 arch), ECG gating artery). Vascular enhancement assessed attenuation measurements taken from locations the artery (n = 3) thoracic aorta 4). appearance coronary regard opacification motion a scale...
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of our study was to determine the efficacy using Choyke questionnaire stratify potential risk for nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) before a gadolinium-enhanced MRI examination and compare economic impact such an approach with universal blood sampling MRI.
Increased utilization of cross-sectional imaging has resulted in increased detection incidental renal tumors. The noninvasive characterization tissue important implications for the diagnosis malignancies and treatment monitoring. Recently, multiple breath-hold averaged proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy ( 1 H-MRS) performed at high field enabled use this metabolic profiling technique investigation abdomen. Multiple H-MRS (3T) was obtained kidneys 10 healthy volunteers cell carcinoma...
The objective of our study was to evaluate the accuracy true fast imaging with steady-state precession (FISP) in diagnosis venous thrombosis using gadolinium-enhanced 3D T1-weighted gradient-echo images and correlative as gold standard.Twenty-five MR examinations were retrospectively reviewed independently by two radiologists rule out central veins body. presence thrombus assessed separately 80 FISP images. Diagnosis confirmed another technique (sonography, CT, and/or conventional...
