We report two cases of myocarditis, in young and previously healthy individuals, temporally related to the second dose mRNA-COVID-19 vaccine. Both patients developed acute chest pain, changes on electrocardiogram (ECG), elevated serum troponin within days receiving their dose. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) findings were consistent with myocarditis.

A pulmonary arteriovenous malformation (PAVM) is a fistulous connection between artery and vein that bypasses the normal capillary bed resulting in right-to-left shunt. Because of potential for paradoxical emboli, PAVMs are treated when their feeding arteries exceed 3 mm or patients symptomatic. often encountered with suspected hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT). Sporadic cases uncommon. The radiologist may be called on to diagnose PAVM after positive transthoracic contrast-enhanced...
Background Treatment of blunt splenic trauma (BST) continues to evolve with improved imaging for detection vascular injuries. Purpose To report on treatments BST from 11 centers, the frequency and clinical impact injuries, factors influencing treatment. Materials Methods Patients were retrospectively identified as having between January 2011 December 2018, clinical, imaging, outcome data recorded. Patient summarized descriptively, both overall stratified by initial treatment received...
The objective of this study was to identify CT findings and determine interobserver reliability surgically proven gastric volvulus.This single-center retrospective included 30 patients (21 women, nine men; mean age, 73 years old) with volvulus who underwent preoperative 31 age- sex-matched control subjects 74 large hiatal hernias were imaged for reasons other than abdominal pain. Two blinded radiologists reviewed the images recorded organoaxial mesenteroaxial ischemia. Interobserver...
Erdheim-Chester disease is an uncommon non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis with systemic manifestations. Most cases discuss radiologic findings once a pathologic diagnosis has already been established. We describe patient symptoms and no previously known who was imaged computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, positron emission tomography. This case unusual in that imaging demonstrated interatrial septum diffuse cardiac involvement, addition to the other characteristic lesions of...
While many of the classic open surgical repairs are still used to repair ascending aorta, management aortic arch has become more complex via implementation newer and endovascular techniques. Furthermore, techniques often combined in novel or allow extended anatomic coverage. As such, a framework that rests on understanding expected postoperative appearance is necessary for diagnostic radiologist best interpret CT studies these patients. After reviewing imaging appearances common components...
Left ventricular assist devices have become an increasingly common life-extending therapy for patients with end-stage heart failure. These may be used as a bridge to transplant, destination therapy, or recovery, providing either pulsatile nonpulsatile support. Because of the increasing frequency left device utilization and improved short-term long-term survival after placement, there has been parallel increase in radiologic imaging these devices, mandating radiologists' awareness...
Chest wall lesions are relatively uncommon and may be challenging once they encountered on images. Radiologists detect these incidentally at examinations performed for other indications, or asked specifically to evaluate a suspicious lesion. While many chest have characteristic imaging findings that can result in an accurate diagnosis with use of alone, entities difficult distinguish because there is significant overlap among them. The interpreting radiologist should familiar the features...
