COVID-19 pneumonia may lead to pulmonary fibrosis in the long term. Chest CT is useful evaluate changes lung parenchyma over time.To illustrate temporal change of abnormalities on chest scans associated with 1 year.In this prospective study, patients previously hospitalized due who visited radiology department a tertiary care center for imaging follow-up were consecutively enrolled between March 2020 and July 2021. Exclusion criteria acute respiratory distress syndrome, requirement...
The volume of three canine and 34 human kidneys was calculated based on a three-dimensional ellipsoid formula. Following nephrectomy, renal measured by water displacement and/or estimated determination mass. Linear regression ultrasound with the water-displacement mass ascertained, coefficient calculated. Based measurements, formula modified empirically.
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) is a diffuse parenchymal lung disease (DLPD) characterized by complex interstitial damage with polymorphic and protean inflammatory aspects affecting tissue targets including small airways, the interstitium, alveolar compartments vascular structures. HP shares clinical often radiological features other diseases in acute or chronic forms. In its natural temporal evolution, if specific therapy not initiated promptly, leads to progressive fibrotic reduced...
Tuberculosis (TB) is a severe infectious disease that still represents major cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. For these reasons, clinicians radiologists should use all the available diagnostic tools in assessment order to provide precise indications about starting an anti-tubercular treatment reduce risk TB transmission complications especially developing countries where endemic. As mycobacteria are mainly transmitted through respiratory droplets, pulmonary parenchyma usually...
Immune-checkpoint inhibitors have profoundly changed cancer treatment, improving the prognosis of many oncologic patients. However, despite good efficacy these drugs, their mechanism action, which involves activation immune system, can lead to immune-related adverse events, may affect almost all organs. Pulmonary events are relatively common, and potentially life-threatening complications occur. The diagnosis is challenging due wide non-specific spectrum clinical radiological manifestations....
Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) is a systemic disorder with the lung and vasculature being preferred targets. Patients interstitial diseases represent category at high risk of progression in case Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV)-2 infection, as such deserve special attention. We first describe combination acute exacerbation pulmonary embolism an elderly ILD patient after booster anti-COVID-19 mRNA vaccination. Vaccines availability had significantly safety impacted COVID-19...
Increasing evidence suggests that SARS-CoV-2 infection may lead to severe and multi-site vascular involvement. Our study aimed at assessing the frequency of extravascular events' distribution in a retrospective cohort 42 COVID-19 patients.
Background: The aim of this study is to define and determine the rate acute non-A–non-B aortic dissections, evaluate CT angiography findings possible complications, as well discuss management strategies currently available therapy. Non-A non-B type dissection still a grey area in radiologist’s mind, such that it not entirely clear what should be reported completed terms disease. Methods: A retrospective single-center including 36 pre-treatment angiograms consecutive patients (mean age: 61...
Background: Pneumothorax (PNX) represents a common clinical condition in emergency departments (EDs), requiring prompt recognition and treatment. The role of transthoracic ultrasounds (TUSs) the diagnosis PNX is still debated. We aimed to prospectively evaluate accuracy TUSs detection spontaneous EDs. Methods: A total 637 consecutive adult patients who presented EDs four Italian hospitals complaining acutely onset chest pain dyspnoea were included study. Exclusion criteria previous traumatic...
Quantitative assessment of the extent radiological alterations in interstitial lung diseases is a promising field application that goes beyond limitations qualitative scoring. Analysis density histograms, i.e., skewness, kurtosis, and mean attenuation, among most studied approaches. We recently proposed their integration single parameter, computerized integrated index (CII), to reduce redundancy. The CII has proven effective detecting subclinical involvement, correlates with function/disease...
Abstract Objectives : The aim of our study was to assess the frequency distribution relevant and incidental vascular events in a retrospective cohort 42 COVID-19 patients. Methods All patients were studied by whole-body CT angiography.Twenty-three out admitted intensive care unit (ICU). Results Relevant recorded 71.4% whole population. Pulmonary embolism most frequent one both ICU no-ICU cases (56.5% vs 10.5%, p=0.002). Ischemic infarction other organs affecting with an increasing prevalence...
Key message The identification of the accessory vein draining superior segment right lower lobe (accessory V 6 ), during posterior mediastinal lymph node dissection, can help avoid operative complications.
Diffuse pulmonary ossification (DPO) is a rare condition of DLD (diffuse lung disease) characterized by the presence metaplastic ectopic bone in lungs and less frequent patients without clear background diseases. DPO very small calcific nodules, often with mature located both peripheral areas lungs. Two patterns have been recognized dendriform nodular. The type common coral-like network spiculae along alveolar septa related to interstitial fibrosis or chronic obstructive disease [1]. Recent...
Introduction COVID-19 in newborns is a variable disease that remains relatively understudied. In symptomatic newborns, infection may progress with subtle or non-specific clinical and laboratory findings. Lung ultrasound (LUS) can serve as valuable imaging tool for evaluating lung damage caused by COVID-19, all without radiation exposure. Additionally, the long-term effects of neonatal population are still inadequately investigated. Population Methods A retrospective cohort study was...
