To evaluate the computed tomographic (CT) features of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in patients with acute abdominal pain. Special emphasis was placed on analysis ischemic bowel disease.The authors retrospectively reviewed images from 39 CT examinations performed 33 SLE and Images were evaluated for wall changes, mesenteric fluid collection, retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy, peritoneal enhancement, hepatomegaly as well changes other organs. Ischemic disease diagnosed if at least three...
To evaluate the computed tomographic (CT) features of xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis (XGC) and to distinguish it from gallbladder carcinoma.Retrospective analysis was performed in 11 patients with XGC 17 carcinoma which wall thickened. The following CT were analyzed: maximum thickness, intramural hypoattenuated nodules, mucosal line, patterns thickening enhancement, presence stones. changes outside also compared.The mean thickness 1.8 cm 2.1 carcinoma. Intramural nodules seen all but only...
The purpose of our study was to evaluate whether MRI can discriminate between extraaxial neurofibromas and neurilemmomas.MR images 52 patients with a pathologically proven neurofibroma or neurilemmoma were retrospectively reviewed by observers who unaware the surgical results, regarding presence absence individual imaging criteria. findings in 12 localized 40 compared using chi-square test Fisher's exact test.MRI suggestive (p < 0.05) target sign on T2-weighted (58% vs 15% neurilemmomas),...
Necrotizing Fasciitis versus Pyomyositis: Discrimination with Using MR ImagingObjective: We wanted to evaluate the findings for differentiating between necrotizing fasciitis (NF) and pyomyositis (PM). Materials Methods:The images of 19 patients surgically confirmed NF (n = 11) pathologically PM 8) were retrospectively reviewed regard presence or absence any MRI finding criteria that could differentiate them. Results:The had a significantly greater prevalence following (p < 0.05): peripheral...
Blood flow imaging using color doppler has proven effective in predicting graft failures hemodialysis patients, but its effect on native arteriovenous fistulas (AVF) is not well known. This study was performed to investigate whether measurements of the access blood can be used as predictors an early failure a AVF patients. Fifty-three consecutive patients who received operations were included this study. Access measured at 1 week after operations, and function followed for 4 months. During...
Recent studies have suggested that a low dose (LD) of radioiodine (RAI) is sufficient to treat differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) even in patients with intermediate risk. However, these evaluated the efficacy RAI therapy, irrespective results whole-body scan (WBS). The aim present study was evaluate response LD and high-dose (HD) therapy using two different criteria (with without WBS results) reclassification system according revised 2015 guidelines American Thyroid Association Korean...

Objective: To assess the diagnostic performance of MR arthrography in diagnosis various types partial-thickness rotator cuff tears by comparing imaging findings with arthroscopic findings. Materials and Methods:The series studies included 202 patients consisting 100 proved arthroscopy a control group 102 arthroscopically intact cuffs, which were reviewed random order.At arthroscopy, 54 articularsided, 26 bursal-sided, 20 both articular-and bursal-sided diagnosed.The arthrographies analyzed...
Metabolism and water diffusion may have a relationship or an effect on each other in the same tumor. Knowledge of their could expand understanding tumor biology serve field oncologic imaging. This study aimed to evaluate between metabolism diffusivity hepatic tumors using simultaneous positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI) system with F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) reveal metabolic diffusional characteristics type tumor.Forty-one patients (mean age 63 ± 13 years, 31...
Fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) and diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) share the same role in clinical oncology it is feasible to obtain standardized uptake value (SUV) apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) simultaneously by emerging hybrid tomography/magnetic (PET/MR). This study investigated correlation between ADCs of rectal cancer lesions their SUVs derived from PET/MR. Nine patients with histologically proven adenocarcinoma (5...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility integrated fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance ((18)F-FDG PET/MR) mammography in invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) patients. From August 2012 March 2013, we enrolled 42 consecutive breast cancer patients who received whole- body PET/MR and subsequent by an scanner were scheduled for surgery within 2 weeks after scan. On whole PET/MR, 2-point Dixon VIBE, coronal T1w image, axial T2w...
Ultrasonography of the postoperative musculoskeletal system plays an important role in Epub ahead print accurate diagnosis abnormal lesions bone and soft tissues. is a fast reliable method with no harmful irradiation for evaluation complications. In particular, it not affected by excessive metal artifacts that appear on computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. Another benefit ultrasonography its capability to dynamically assess pathologic movement joints, muscles, tendons. This...
Fibro‐osseous pseudotumor of the digit is an unusual cutaneous process characterized histologically by a fibroblastic proliferation admixed with reactive/metaplastic osteoid formation. The formation can be florid and immature, mimicking appearance malignant osteoid‐forming neoplasms. has histologic clinical features in common myositis ossificans. This led many to consider two synonymous. We studied three cases fibro‐osseous pseudotumor, compared five ossificans, using routine light...
Purpose Our goal was to evaluate CT efficacy in differentiating gastrointestinal leiomyoma and leiomyosarcoma. Method We retrospectively reviewed scans of 45 patients (21 men, 24 women, mean age 55 years) with surgically proven leiomyomas (n = 21) leiomyosarcomas 24) respect size, contour, enhancing pattern, mesenteric fat infiltration, calcification, ulceration, regional lymphadenopathy, direct invasion, distant metastasis, growth pattern after visual inspection by two radiologists...
