Vascular access in oncology patients can often be challenging, especially after a few cycles of chemotherapy through peripheral lines which cause veins to become attenuated. We evaluated the feasibility centrally placed non-cuffed tunnelled peripherally inserted central catheter chest as an alternative conventional catheter.Patients referred for found have inadequate venous their arms due prior chemotherapy, and therefore they were offered placement chest. Adult subjected procedure under...
Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most prevalent form of liver cancer with major risk factors being chronic disease (CLD) including inflammation, steatohepatitis and certain viral infections (Hepatitis B C). Due to poor prognosis, early detection key for effective management. Imaging HCC has developed over years specificity as high 95%. The Liver Reporting Data System (LI-RADS) provides a standardized reporting format that can be followed by radiologists clinicians alike. This...
Background: Intracranial lipomas are uncommon tumors, which produce susceptibility artifacts on weighted images. The cause for the artifact SWI images remains speculative. Our purpose was identifying possible causes of in lipoma. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 15 cases harboring 16 head region. All evaluated presence blooming types artifacts. Computed tomography (CT) were calcification. Results: three pericallosal tubulonodular showed peripheral rim-like curvilinear (four...
Background and Aim: Acute intra-arterial thrombus produces susceptibility artifact on gradient echo images (susceptibility sign). Our aim was to study the sensitivity specificity of sign in various major intracranial arteries susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) patients with acute stroke. We also compared it 'hyperintensity sign' fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) 'hyperdense artery computed tomography (CT) for middle cerebral (MCA) occlusion. Materials Methods : have...
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain can be difficult to diagnose and treat. We describe a patient with left jaw after right hemimandibulectomy. The was initially managed conservatively, which failed reduce pain. He then administered inferior alveolar nerve block TMJ injection steroid local anesthetic. These injections provided temporary relief that lasted approximately 1 month the recurred. Computed tomography scan showed lateral displacement of mandibular condyle. given ultrasound-guided...
Abstract Major hepatobiliary cancers include hepatocellular carcinoma, gallbladder and cholangiocarcinoma. There are multiple guidelines recommendations for the imaging evaluation of these cancers. This article reviews summarizes principles in The cross-sectional protocol is similar among lesions discussed at first followed by separate discussion each cancer.
Abstract Image-guided lung biopsy plays a very important role in the diagnosis and management of lesions. As diagnostic tool, it demands high yield low complication rate. It is imperative to balance patient safety during biopsies. The aim this article review standard practice guidelines biopsy, describe techniques used minimize complications associated with complications.
Abstract At the time of writing this article, more than 18 million people worldwide have been infected by severe acute respiratory syndrome-associated coronavirus-2 and about 700,000 died from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). In India, 190,000 nearly 39,000 succumbed to infection. Infection among health-care workers has emerged as one key problems in facing pandemic. The purpose article is describe measures taken department oncoradiology at our institution control infection minimize...
Abstract Purpose Endovascular stenting is the treatment of choice for malignant obstruction superior vena cava (SVC) when rapid symptomatic relief desired. Body floss technique not routinely used during SVC but has few advantages over single-access technique. We report our experience with using body Materials and Methods Between March 2015 2020, 25 patients (20 men, 5 women; median age, 65 years) underwent endovascular SVC. retrospectively evaluated these clinical technical success rates,...
Abstract Precision medicine is becoming increasingly common in oncology, with treatments tailored to individual patients and cancer. By integrating these underlying concepts of health care, chemotherapy radiotherapy can be improve safety efficacy. On the other hand, oncology treatment regimens may result local systemic changes complications depending on type treatment. For proper prompt management cancer patients, it essential interpret this posttreatment imaging correctly. This article aims...
Abstract Gastric cancer is the second most common cause of cancer-related death in Indian men and women aged between 15 44 years. Most patients present at an advanced stage disease. Surgically resectable disease usually requires a standard gastric resection D2 lymphadenectomy. Imaging, especially with computed tomography scan abdomen as well thorax, necessary for localization, nodal mapping, metastatic workup cancer. In this review, we discuss current imaging recommendations carcinoma.
Abstract Intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct (IPNB) is a rare variant tumors, which counterpart pancreatic intraductal mucinous (IPMN). These tumors need to be differentiated from other common such as cholangiocarcinoma, IPNB carries better prognosis. A combination enhancing intraluminal filling defect, demonstrating washout and associated upstream downstream biliary dilation, should raise suspicion IPNB.
Abstract Purpose Groshong valved catheters require retrograde tunneling and a port chamber needs to be attached the catheter after trimming. During this process, working space constraints are generally faced by operators. We describe novel technique improve comfort of operator while in constrained space. Materials Methods The with distal valve is retrogradely tunneled trimmed. Thread from absorbable surgical suture used anchor lock. Anchored lock comfortably pushed over into subcutaneous...
Abstract Large B-cell lymphomas include both the commonly encountered, as well not so frequent entities. We report a rare case of hepatic intravascular large lymphoma (IVLBCL). These cases usually pose major challenge to timely diagnosis due limited clinical exposure and nonspecific symptoms; however, is possible with awareness this entity close coordination between radiology pathology. The patient presented pain abdomen, fever, edema, hepatomegaly but no lymphadenopathy or cutaneous lesions...
