Rhinocerebral mucormycosis is a life-threatening infection caused by saprophytic fungi seen almost exclusively in immunocompromised patients.The objective of this study was to describe the imaging findings patients with rhinocerebral mucormycosis. The case records biopsy/culture proven invasive were reviewed. Computed Tomography (CT) and/or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) images retrieved from Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) analyzed. Statistical analysis performed using...
Abstract Background Differential diagnosis in radiology is a critical aspect of clinical decision-making. Radiologists the early stages may find difficulties listing differential from image patterns. In this context, emergence large language models (LLMs) has introduced new opportunities as these have capacity to access and contextualize extensive information text-based input. Objective The objective study was explore utility four LLMs—ChatGPT3.5, Google Bard, Microsoft Bing, Perplexity—in...
Computed Tomography (CT) is the mainstay of diagnostic imaging evaluation thoracic disorders. However, there are a number CT protocols ranging from simple non-contrast at one end spectrum, and perfusion as complex protocol available only on high-end scanners. With growing diversity, pressing need for radiologists, clinicians to have basic understanding recommended examinations individual indications. This brief review aims summarise currently prevalent examination protocols, including their...
Objective Investigate the clinical landscape of ovarian carcinoma (OC) over time. Design Register‐based prospectively collected data. Setting South East Scotland. Sample A total 2805 OC patients diagnosed in 1981–2015. Methods Survival times were visualised using Kaplan–Meier method; median survival, 5‐year survival probabilities and associated restricted mean time analyses used to quantify differences. Main outcome measures Disease‐specific survival. Results significant increase...
Abstract Background In this period following the COVID-19 pandemic, there is increasing evidence to indicate presence of long-term sequelae in individuals who were infected with COVID-19. This study was performed assess proportion CT abnormalities patients underwent imaging thorax at least 4 weeks after date RT-PCR confirmation infection and severity lung involvement using a semiquantitative scoring system above population. Methods Institutional Review Board approval obtained for study. We...
PURPOSE There is a lack of literature on treating stage III non–oncogene-driven non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with low-dose immunotherapy in combination chemotherapy for patients who are not candidates local therapy up front. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed an institutional retrospective analysis NSCLC deemed ineligible up-front therapy. The NACT + I/O group comprised those received induction nivolumab, and the NACT-alone alone. Propensity score matching was based stage, histology,...
We present the imaging findings in two cases of IgG4-related disease involving sinonasal region pediatric age group. Imaging affecting nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses have been rarely reported literature. The diagnosis is made by a combination clinical, imaging, histopathologic findings. Radiologists should be aware this condition to ensure early treatment.
Abstract Congenital bronchopulmonary vascular malformations (BPVMs) include a broad spectrum of disorders that involve abnormalities in the form disruptions normal communication and/or presence abnormal between one or more three main systems lung, namely, airways, arteries, and veins. The establishment communications by means small openings anastomoses is termed as malinosculation. aim this pictorial essay to illustrate imaging appearances various types pulmonary
Abstract Context: Rhinosporidiosis is a chronic granulomatous disease endemic in certain regions of India. Computed tomography (CT) imaging appearances rhinosporidiosis have not been previously described the literature. Aims: To study features with contrast-enhanced CT and elucidate its role evaluation this disease. Materials Methods: Sixteen patients pathologically proven were included study. Contrast-enhanced images analyzed retrospectively findings correlated surgical histopathologic...
Background: Tracheobronchopathia osteochondroplastica (TPO) is a rare idiopathic disease involving the tracheobronchial tree. It mostly an incidental finding with non-specific clinical manifestations. has typical bronchoscopic, radiological features and biopsy usually considered non-essential. The study aimed to determine whether makes difference in management of patients. Methods: All patients diagnosed TPO our institution over 15 years (2005 2020) were included this study. Their medical...
Background:Localization of a cerebrospinal fluid [CSF] fistula is diagnostic challenge.The choice an optimal imaging technique necessary to locate the site CSF leak which required for surgical/endoscopic repair fistula. Material/Methods:Retrospective analysis was performed in 33 patients who presented with symptoms suggestive rhinorrhoea over period two years.Either bone defect on high resolution CT [HRCT] or column extending extracranially from subarachnoid space without brain/ meningeal...
Seronegative spondyloarthropathy is a group of chronic inflammatory rheumatic diseases that predominantly affect the axial skeleton. Involvement sacroiliac joint considered hallmark for diagnosis seronegative and usually first manifestation this condition. It essential radiologist to know computed tomography (CT) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features spondyloarthropathy-related sacroiliitis as plays an important role in evaluation response treatment. We present pictorial essay CT MRI...
Age-based formulas for selecting the appropriate size of tracheostomy tubes in children are based on data tracheal dimensions. This study aims to measure dimensions Indian by computerized tomography (CT) and compare this with age-appropriate tubes.CT scans aged less than 16 years that were taken indications other respiratory distress included. Tracheal diameters at point length from carina calculated scans. These correlated age, weight, height. The measurement CT scan was used predict tube,...
Abstract Background Point-of care ultrasound is considered to hold promise in tuberculosis (TB) screening. However, most available abdominal data focuses on HIV-infected cohorts and for lung (LUS) very sparse. We aimed determine accuracy of a cohort presumed TB tertiary hospital India. Methods Adult patients with were enrolled prospectively underwent comprehensive evaluation. Accuracy individual predetermined combination findings was determined against reference standard (mycobacterial...
Although pulmonary hydatid cysts can be diagnosed on computed tomography (CT), sometimes findings atypical. Other hypodense infective or neoplastic lesions may mimic cysts. We proposed that magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) act as a problem-solving tool, aiding the definite diagnosis of and differentiating it from its mimics. The aim this study is to assess CT MRI additional contribution in doubtful cases.This retrospective 90 patients with suspected were noted role diagnosing mimics was...
Cancer Radiomics is an emerging field in medical imaging and refers to the process of converting routine radiological images that are typically qualitatively interpreted quantifiable descriptions tumor phenotypes when combined with statistical analytics can improve accuracy clinical outcome prediction models. However, understand radiomic features their correlation molecular changes tumor, first, there a need for development robust image analysis methods, software tools models which often...
Rhinosporidiosis is a granulomatous infection of mucocutaneous tissue caused by Rhinosporidium seeberi that most commonly occurs in the nasal cavity. Ocular rhinosporidiosis affects primarily conjunctiva. Diagnosis based on strong clinical suspicion and confirmed histopathological examination. We report rare case conjunctival an immunocompromised patient (human immunodeficiency virus) with disseminated cutaneous rhinosporidiosis. A 44-year-old male presented swelling right upper eyelid for 6...
