Magnetic...

Background Further research is required for evaluating the use of ADC histogram analysis in more advanced stages cervical cancer treated with definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT). Purpose To investigate utility apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) derived from diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance images patients CRT. Material and Methods The clinical radiological data 50 histologically proven squamous cell carcinoma CRT were retrospectively analyzed. impact clinicopathological factors...

Background Limited data are available regarding the use of diffusion-weighted (DW) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with multiple b values for characterization renal lesions. Purpose To demonstrate and compare diagnostic performance DW-MRI lesion characterization. Material Methods Sixty-three lesions (36 malignant, 27 benign) in 60 consecutive patients (48 men, 12 women; age ± 12.5 years) solid/cystic diagnosed after MRI were included prospectively. Single-shot echo-planar DW abdominal...

To present chest radiography and thoracic computed tomography (CT) findings for patients with pandemic influenza A (H1N1) from November-December 2009 to explore any differences compared previously reported imaging findings.Fifty-two hospitalized were included in the study. All of underwent radiography, 28 also evaluated by CT. Group 1 comprised 24 (46%) no identified risk factors H1N1 infection. 2 remaining (54%) factors. The distribution lung involvement, consolidation, ground-glass opacity...

Brucellosis is a systemic infection involving many organs and tissues. The musculoskeletal system one of the most commonly affected. disease can present with sacroiliitis, peripheral arthritis, spondylitis, paraspinal abscess, bursitis, osteomyelitis. A 25-year-old male patient was admitted fever 20-day duration, right-sided hip pain, night sweating. Brucella standard tube agglutination test positive at titer 1/160. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) joint showed right sacroiliitis...

We analysed the correlation of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake into primary tumours using maximum standardised value (SUVmax) and mean apparent diffusion coefficient (ADCmean) values in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with clinical pathological factors patients cervical cancer who were treated concurrent chemoradiotherapy. The stratified according to tumour pre-treatment ADCmean SUVmax cut-off values. There significant correlations between size, treatment response. FIGO stage, lymph node...

Although hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) usually develops in cirrhotic livers, HCCs could also arise non-cirrhotic livers. We aimed to compare the characteristics and survival of cirrhotic- HCCs.

Abstract Many woman have low back pain and sacral during pregnancy in the postpartum period. The is most often caused by mechanical compression of soft tissues ligaments pelvis. It rare for a fracture to cause or immediately after birth. Few cases period been reported date. Here, we describe imaging features associated with radicular symptoms who had just delivered her first child.

Background Standards for abdominal diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measurements, and analysis are required reproducibility. Purpose To identify optimal internal comparison standards DWI to normalize the measured ADC increased accuracy of differentiating malignant benign lesions. Material Methods We retrospectively studied 97 lesions (89 patients; age, 57 ± 13 years) with histopathologically confirmed disease. Seven normal body parts/contents (normal...

Intracranial lipomas are uncommon congenital malformations that often asymptomatic. They very rarely seen in the inner ear. There a few case reports literature related to intravestibular lipoma. It was also defined internal auditory canal and cerebellopontine angle. We present here of an ear lipoma diffusely infiltrated cochlea, vestibule semicircular canals. To our knowledge, this is first reported literature.

To evaluate the feasibility of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) in assessment renal function patients with familial Mediterranean fever (FMF).Thirty healthy volunteers who had no history disease, hypertension or vascular disease and 60 FMF were included study. Transverse multisection echo-planar MRI was performed following diffusion gradient b values: 0, 111, 222, 333, 444, 556, 667, 778, 889 1000 s/mm(2). The apparent coefficient (ADC) values, urine protein serum...

Sclerosing stromal tumors are rare benign ovarian neoplasms that usually diagnosed in the second or third decade of life. Most patients with these present menstrual irregularities and pelvic pain. We magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings a left sclerosing tumor torsion was located right parauterine area, discuss differential diagnosis for this entity based on MRI findings. In case, demonstrated well-defined, predominantly solid mass pseudolobular pattern, showed shift uterus to left. The...

A 59-year-old man presented with bilateral calf pain and swelling for two weeks. Ultrasound magnetic resonance imaging examination showed multiple bilateral, nodular, spindle- shaped lesions in the gastrocnemius soleus muscles. On physical examination, hyperpigmented, papular were noticed; biopsy of skin his right elbow granulomatous inflammation. His angiotensin converting enzyme level was markedly elevated. Computed tomography diffuse interstitial thickening, miliary nodules, traction...

Myolipoma is a very rare adipocytic tumor occurring most frequently in adults, and usually located the retroperitoneum or abdomen. It has been described retroperitoneum, spinal cord, orbita, breast, round ligament, subcutaneous tissue, pericardium, rectus sheath of abdominal wall, cavity with attachment to wall. Most these tumors are discovered incidentally large when discovered. Radiological findings nonspecific due nonlipomatous component tumor. We present radiological extraperitoneal...

To determine the feasibility of diffusion-weighted imaging in evaluation pancreatic lesions and differentiation benign from malignant lesions.Descriptive study.Baskent University Adana Teaching Research Center, Adana, Turkey, between September 2013 May 2015.Forty-three [pancreas adenocarcinoma (n=25)], pancreatitis (n=10), lesion (n=8)] were utilized with magnetic resonance multiple b-values. Different ADC maps diffusion weighted images by using b-values acquired.The median at all b values...
