Background High variability in prostate MRI quality might reduce accuracy cancer detection. Purpose To prospectively evaluate the of scanners taking part control phase global PRIME (Prostate Imaging Using ± Contrast Enhancement) trial using Prostate Quality (PI-QUAL) standardized scoring system, give recommendations on how to improve protocols, and establish whether could be improved by these recommendations. Materials Methods In prospective clinical (PRIME), for each scanner, centers...
Introduction The differential diagnosis of pulmonary nodules (PNs) includes metastases, lung cancers, infectious diseases, and scar tissue, among others. Because data regarding whether when to perform a PN biopsy in patients with cancer are scarce, clinicians tend assume that PNs metastatic disease based solely on imaging. current study evaluated the findings biopsies population sought determine variables correlated higher odds disease. Patients Methods We conducted retrospective,...
To evaluate the role of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) prostate and transrectal ultrasonography guided biopsy (TRUS-Bx) with visual estimation in early risk stratification patients cancer on active surveillance (AS).Patients low-risk, low-grade, localised were prospectively enrolled submitted to a 3-T 16-channel cardiac surface coil mpMRI confirmatory (CBx), which included standard (SBx) estimation-guided TRUS-Bx. Cancer-suspicious regions defined using Prostate Imaging...
Pulmonary imaging finding of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been widely described, but until now few studies have published about abdominal radiological presentation. The aim this study was to provide an overview findings in patients with COVID-19 a multicenter and correlate them worse clinical outcomes.This retrospective included adult COVID-positive CT performed from 4/1/2020 5/1/2020 two institutions. Demographic, laboratory data were recorded, including outcomes.Of 81 patients,...
Magnetic resonance imaging is a method with high contrast resolution widely used in the assessment of pelvic gynecological diseases. However, potential such to diagnose vaginal lesions still underestimated, probably due scarce literature approaching theme, poor familiarity radiologists diseases, some them relatively rare, and many peculiarities involved vagina. Thus, authors illustrate role magnetic evaluation diseases main relevant findings be considered clinical decision making process. A...
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a noncancerous growth of the transitional zone prostate, which surrounds urethra. Consequently, it can cause lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and bladder outlet obstruction that may substantially reduce patient's quality life. Several treatments are available for BPH, including medications such as α-blockers 5α-reductase inhibitors surgical options transurethral resection prostate prostatectomy. Recently, artery embolization (PAE) has emerged...
CT-guided percutaneous biopsy is a resourceful and widely used tool to evaluate pulmonary nodules that frequently avoids costly unnecessary surgeries. Severe complications occur in less than 1% of cases include gas embolism, which rarely documented. We report case embolism after transthoracic biopsies discuss the pathophysiology benefits early diagnosis proper management.
ABSTRACT Background Our study aimed to correlate ERG and PTEN expressions in prostate biopsy with multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging PI‐RADS score, clinical reclassification, prognosis of very low‐risk cancer (PCa) patients under active surveillance (AS). Methods We evaluated 101 PCa AS between 2013 2018. They were followed DRE, PSA, MRI, re‐biopsies every 1–2 years. Per cause was recommended if PSA > 10 ng/mL, suspicious or ≥ 4 present. assessed by immunohistochemistry at biopsy....
The antihypertensive effect of amiodarone was investigated in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY). SHR WKY were treated with (1 mg/mL PO) or tap water (control) for 20 weeks. indirect arterial pressure (AP) monitored weekly using the tail-cuff method. At end 20th week, direct AP measured, systolic pulse interval time series submitted to autoregressive spectral analysis. In addition, cardiac baroreflex sensitivity left ventricular weight evaluated as...
A 64-year-old man with history of prostate adenocarcinoma underwent radical prostatectomy in 2003. He remained undetectable prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels until 2014, when he then presented rising serum PSA and performed a 99mTc-MDP bone scan that was negative for metastases. In August 2015, his 4.89 ng/dL, restaging images pelvic MR 18F-FDG PET/CT were both negative. Therefore, the patient 68Ga-PSMA showed marked tracer uptake single mediastinal lymph node. Histopathology...
Purpose To describe our initial experience with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of Bosniak IV renal cysts. Materials and Methods From 2010 to 2014, 154 tumor cases were treated percutaneous thermal ablation, which 10 (6.4%) from nine patients complex cysts ablation. Results All classified as (four women five men; mean age: 63.6 yrs, range: 33–83 years). One patient had a single kidney. Lesion size ranged 1.5 4.1cm (mean: 2.5cm) biopsy was performed on four immediately before the procedure, all...
5085 Background: Patients (pts) with high-risk localized prostate cancer (HRLPC) have a significant risk of disease recurrence and metastasis after radical prostatectomy (RP). Neoadjuvant therapy remains investigational but there may be role for the next-generation androgen signaling inhibitors. We sought to evaluate pathologic imaging response intense neoadjuvant approach. Methods: This is phase II investigator-initiated randomized trial 3-month goserelin (androgen deprivation therapy, ADT)...
Intestinal malformations are common disorders in newborn and favorable outcomes have been reported for such conditions. Although, if the patient is treated a not experienced center, misinterpretation of clinical radiological findings may lead to errors treatment possible complications adulthood. We report case congenital megaduodenum which was misinterpreted as an intestinal malrotation resulting late complications. The underwent successful surgical resection duodenum with improvement his...
Laringoceles são lesões relativamente raras definidas como dilatações anômalas dos sáculos ventrículos laríngeos. A classificação usual divide a laringocele em interna, externa e combinada ou mista. internas as que se localizam medialmente à cartilagem tireóidea geralmente causam compressão nas bandas ventriculares levando rouquidão sintomas compressivos na via aérea. As externas estendem através da membrana tireóidea, apresentando-se massas cervicais, mistas ocupam duas regiões, podendo...
