Accurate early diagnosis of lung metastases is important for establishing therapeutic measures. Therefore, the present study aimed to compare survey thoracic radiographs and computerized tomography (CT) scans specifically identify in female dogs with mammary tumors.Twenty-one dogs, weighing 3 34 kg aged from 5 years 14 10 months, tumors were studied. In all before imaging examinations, fine-needle aspiration cytology was performed confirm diagnosis. Three-view accomplished: right lateral,...
This brief communication demonstrates the correlation of persistent respiratory symptoms with functional, tomographic, and transbronchial pulmonary biopsy findings in patients COVID-19 who had a long follow-up period. We report series six involvement presented dyspnea within 4-15 months discharge. performed biopsies, histopathological pattern consistently demonstrated peribronchial remodeling interstitial fibrosis. Therefore, lung may be useful approach COVID-19, although type procedure, its...
Our objective was to determine whether anthropometric measurements of the midarm (MA) could identify subjects with whole body fat-free mass (FFM) depletion. Fifty-five patients (31% females; age: 64.6 ± 9.3 years) mild/very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), 18 smokers without COPD (39% 49.0 7.3 and 23 never smoked controls (57% 48.2 9.6 were evaluated. Spirometry, muscle strength MA circumference measured. area estimated by anthropometry cross-sectional computerized...
Genotyping of the genus Paracoccidioides showed its diversity and geographical distribution. Four species constituting brasiliensis complex lutzii are etiological agents paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM). However, there no studies comparing clinical epidemiological aspects between PCM caused by P. lutzii. Demographic data from 81 patients with PCM—confirmed mycological and/or histopathological examination—from Mato Grosso do Sul state (Brazil) were studied. All underwent serology immunodiffusion...
To assess the cardiovascular features of Ullrich-Turner's syndrome using echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging, to correlate them with phenotype karyotype patients. The diagnostic concordance between 2 methods was also assessed.Fifteen patients were assessed by imaging (cardiac chambers, valves, aorta). Their ages ranged from 10 28 (mean 16.7) years. analyzed in 11 or 25 metaphases peripheral blood lymphocytes, both.The most common phenotypic changes short stature spontaneous...
A Sistematização da Assistência de Enfermagem - SAE aplicada por meio do processo enfermagem representa uma metodologia fundamental no planejamento e execução dos cuidados enfermagem. Este estudo tem como objetivo compreender os fatores que dificultam a operacionalização em um serviço obstetrícia. Utilizou-se o interacionismo simbólico grounded theory, referencial teórico metodológico. população foi constituída treze enfermeiros maternidade pública, localizada na cidade João Pessoa, Paraíba....
Pulmonary artery sarcomas (PAS) are rare and probably incurable tumours. The clinical manifestations non-specific very similar to that of patients with thromboembolic disease, resulting in delay the correct diagnosis proper treatment. We report case a 66-year-old woman PAS diagnosed by computed tomography guided biopsy. Chemotherapy treatment was initiated but patient died 11 months after diagnosis.
The purpose of this work was to develop a quantitative method for evaluating the pulmonary inflammatory process (PIP) through computational analysis chest radiography exams in posteroanterior (PA) and lateral views. quantification procedure applied patients with tuberculosis (TB) as motivating application. A study high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) examinations TB developed establish relation between signal difference-to-noise ratio (SDNR) measured PA projection. phantom essay used...
Abstract To determine whether left ventricular (LV) global longitudinal strain (GLS) measured by feature-tracking (FT) cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) improves after kidney transplantation (KT) and to analyze associations between LV GLS, reverse remodeling myocardial tissue characteristics. This is a prospective single-center cohort study of transplant recipients who underwent two CMR examinations in 3T scanner, including cines, tagging, T1 T2 mapping. The baseline exam was done up 10 days...

MATERIAIS E MÉTODOS: Foram estimados o índice dose a média cortes múltiplos, exames adultos, distintos equipamentos. Ainda foram estimadas as doses na superfície entrada absorvidas exame cabeça para avaliados. RESULTADOS: realizados testes controle...
OBJETIVO: Estudar os padrões clínicos, radiológicos e histopatológicos da biópsia transbrônquica (BTB) utilizados para a confirmação diagnóstica em pacientes com suspeita clinica de doença pulmonar intersticial (DPI) atendidos um hospital universitário nível terciário. MÉTODOS: Os prontuários, laudos biópsias transbrônquicas todos DPI submetidos BTB entre janeiro 1999 dezembro 2006 no Hospital das Clínicas Botucatu, localizado na cidade Botucatu (SP), foram revisados. RESULTADOS: Foram...
This study presents methodology for objectively quantifying the pulmonary region affected by emphysemic and fibrotic sequelae in treated patients with paracoccidioidomycosis. may also be applied to any other disease that results these lungs. Pulmonary high-resolution computed tomography examinations of 30 paracoccidioidomycosis were used study. The distribution voxel attenuation coefficients was analyzed determine percentage lung volume consisted emphysemic, fibrotic, normal tissue....
Abstract Background The use of anthracycline-based chemotherapy is associated with the development heart failure, even years after end treatment. Early detection cardiac dysfunction could identify a high-risk subset survivors who would eventually benefit from early intervention. Cardiac magnetic resonance feature-tracking (CMR-FT) analysis offers practical and rapid method to calculate systolic diastolic strains routinely acquired cine images. While changes in function have been described,...
Chest radiography and electrocardiogram have been criticized due to their low sensitivity for Left Ventricular Hypertrophy diagnosis compared echocardiogram. This one, however, is not available in primary health care centers all hypertensive population.To evaluate whether the association chest radiography-electrocardiogram provides accuracy justify its use left ventricular hypertrophy detection patients, as well usefulness of cardiothoracic ratio oblique radiographs relation frontal lateral...

Some studies have shown poor agreement between intraoperative and histopathological classifications for appendicitis, despite their routine use in clinical practice.To investigate the pediatric appendicitis evaluate predictive potential of these post-operative outcome.A retrospective, longitudinal, observational single-center study, carried out with 485 patients up to15 years age, a confirmed diagnosis acute by evaluation. The results classified appendices as uncomplicated when there was...
Abstract Computed tomography (CT) has a high level of sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis follow-up pathologies abdomen–pelvis region. Some features, such as automatic tube current modulation (ATCM), permits acquisition quality images with low radiation doses. This study evaluated image dose CT protocols ATCM technique. Were performed five using 16-slice 64-slice scanners, an anthropomorphic phantom dosimetric measurements, analytical retrospective examinations analysis. found...
Background: Diastolic dysfunction, commonly evaluated by echocardiography, is an important early finding in many cardiomyopathies. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) often requires specialized sequences that extends the test time. Recently, feature-tracking imaging has been made available, but still expensive software and lacks clinical validation. Objective: To assess diastolic function patients with aortic valve disease (AVD) compare it normal controls evaluating left ventricular (LV)...
