To prospectively assess whether there is a relationship between the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and histopathologic cell count ADC can enable differentiation of benign malignant extracranial mass lesions in children.Institutional ethics approval parent or guardian consent were obtained. Eleven eight 19 children (11 girls, boys; median age, 3.9 years; age range, 11 days to 15.5 years) who underwent magnetic resonance (MR) imaging lesions-including diffusion-weighted sequence (with b...
Purpose To compare the diagnostic performance of rapid whole-body anatomic magnetic resonance (MR) staging pediatric and adolescent lymphoma to an enhanced positron emission tomographic (PET)/computed (CT) reference standard. Materials Methods Ethical permission was given by University College London Hospital ethics committee, informed written consent obtained from all participants and/or parents or guardians. Thirty-one subjects (age range, 7.3–18.0 years; 18 male, 11 female) with...
Purpose: This study explores the relationship between MRI Apparent Diffusion Coefficient (ADC) and PET Standardized Uptake Value (SUV) measurements in pediatric Hodgkin lymphoma. Methods: Sixteen patients (mean age 15.4 yrs, 8 male) with proven Hodgk
To prospectively investigate concordance between whole-body MRI (WB-MRI) and a composite reference standard for initial staging interim response evaluation in paediatric adolescent Hodgkin's lymphoma. Fifty patients (32 male, age range 6–19 years) underwent WB-MRI investigations, including 18F-FDG-PET-CT at diagnosis following 2–3 chemotherapy cycles. Two radiologists consensus interpreted using prespecified definitions of disease positivity. A third radiologist reviewed subset WB-MRIs (n =...
Abstract The European Federation of Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology (EFSUMB) created the “EFSUMB Pediatric Registry” (EFSUMB EPR) with purpose collecting data regarding intravenous application pediatric contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS). primary aim was to document current clinical practice usefulness technique secondarily assess CEUS safety children. We issue preliminary results this database examine overall children Europe.
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis is the most common rheumatic entity in childhood. Imaging has become an important supplement to clinical assessment of children with JIA. Radiographs still play role workup, and long-term follow-up JIA, but are not sensitive findings early disease stage. Both ultrasound MRI more inflammatory changes than alone. However, differentiation between normal pathology can be challenging, particularly disease. The objective this review discuss imaging describe typical on...
<h3>Importance</h3> Competency-based medical education is now established in health professions training. However, critics stress that there a lack of published outcomes for competency-based or assessment tools. <h3>Objective</h3> To determine whether associated with better identification and support residents difficulty. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> This cohort study secondary data from archived files on 458 family medicine (2006-2008 2010-2016) was conducted between July 5, 2016,...
Abstract Objectives: To examine if the current taught undergraduate psychiatry syllabus at an Irish University relates to what doctors in consider be clinically relevant and important. Methods: Doctors of different clinical grades were invited rate their views on 216 items a 10-point Likert scale ranging from ‘0 = not relevant’ ‘10 very relevant’. Participants comment topics that should excluded or included new syllabus. Thematic analysis was conducted this free-text identify particular...
Abstract Background The development of developmental dysplasia the hip can be attributed to several risk factors and often in combination with each other. When predicting likelihood developing this condition, clinicians tend over underestimate its occurring. Therefore, study aim is determine among at-risk newborns how best predict (DDH) within 8 weeks post-partum. Methods Prospective cohort secondary care. Patient population included for DDH – we assessed 13,276 consecutive presence factors....
Treatment regimens for pediatric Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) depend on accurate staging and treatment response assessment, based disease distribution metabolic activity depiction. With the aim of radiation dose reduction, we compared diagnostic performance <sup>18</sup>F-FDG PET/MRI with a PET/CT reference standard assessment. <b>Methods:</b> Twenty-four patients (mean age, 15.4 y; range, 8–19.5 y) histologically proven HL were prospectively consecutively recruited in 2015 2016, undergoing both at...
Necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) in preterm babies is a serious gastrointestinal emergency with potentially devastating consequences. Prompt and accurate diagnosis continues to be challenge for health professionals. Early identification of clinical warning signs extremely important, but the relies heavily on interpretation abdominal radiographs. Postgraduate training paediatricians neonatologists neonatal radiography scarce, there variability radiological input services. Lack standardised...
Comprehensive imaging using ultrasound and MRI of placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) aims to prevent catastrophic haemorrhage maternal death. Standard the is limited by between-slice motion which can be mitigated super-resolution reconstruction (SRR) MRI. We applied SRR in suspected PAS cases determine its ability enhance anatomical placental assessment predict adverse outcome. Suspected patients (n = 22) underwent at a gestational age (weeks + days) (32+3±3+2, range (27+1-38+6))....
Background: Competency-based assessment innovations are being implemented to address concerns about the effectiveness of traditional approaches medical training and competence.
We aimed to develop and assess the reliability of a novel MRI-based scoring system for reporting severity MRI findings in children with suspected JDM.Nine consultant paediatric radiologists independently assessed scored 40 axial 30 coronal thigh MR images JDM on two occasions using juvenile dermatomyositis magnetic resonance Imaging Score (JIS). JIS was calculated both reads each plane limb, possible scores ranging from 0 (normal) 100 (severe). Inter- intraobserver agreement intraclass...
The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) is potentially useful for assessing treatment response in nephroblastoma (Wilms tumour). However the precision of ADC measurements these heterogeneous lesions unknown.To assess intra- and interobserver variability whole-tumour viable parts nephroblastomas at diagnosis after preoperative chemotherapy.We included children with histopathologically proven who had undergone MRI diffusion-weighted imaging before chemotherapy. Three independent observers...
