To correlate a CT-based semi-quantitative score of pulmonary involvement in COVID-19 pneumonia with clinical staging disease and laboratory findings. We also aimed to investigate whether CT findings may be predictive patients' outcome.
Purpose To prospectively compare gadoxetate disodium–enhanced magnetic resonance (MR) imaging with multiphasic 64-section multidetector computed tomography (CT) in the detection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients cirrhosis. Materials and Methods Institutional review board approval informed patient consent were obtained for this prospective study. Fifty-eight (39 men, 19 women; mean age, 63 years; age range, 35–84 years) underwent MR CT. The examinations performed within 30 days each...
To compare multi-detector row spiral computed tomographic (CT) angiography with digital subtraction (DSA) in evaluation of the infrarenal aorta and lower-extremity arterial system.Fifty patients peripheral occlusive disease were evaluated CT DSA. Arteries depicted at DSA graded separately for degree stenosis as 23 anatomic segments (infrarenal aorta, right left common iliac artery, internal external femoral superficial deep popliteal anterior tibial tibioperoneal trunk, posterior peroneal...
The purpose of our study was to evaluate the accuracy multidetector CT (MDCT) using a high-resolution protocol in preoperative assessment patients with renal cell carcinoma who are possible candidates for nephron-sparing surgery.Forty suspected underwent MDCT. Contrast-enhanced acquisitions were obtained during arterial, nephrographic, and urographic phases thin-slice protocol. One-millimeter-thick source images evaluated by two observers on dedicated workstation identification...
Abstract Large spontaneous portal-systemic shunts have been occasionally described in patients with cirrhosis. This study was undertaken to assess the prevalence of cirrhosis recurrent or persistent hepatic encephalopathy (HE) as compared without HE. Fourteen HE (cases) and 14 previous present signs overt matching for age degree liver failure (controls) were studied. Each patient underwent neurological assessment cerebral magnetic resonance (MR) imaging exclude organic pathological...
To determine, by using multi-detector row helical computed tomography (CT), the added value of obtaining unenhanced and delayed phase scans in addition to biphasic (hepatic arterial portal venous phases) detection hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients with cirrhosis.Local ethical committee approval patient consent were obtained. One hundred ninety-five (129 men, 66 women; mean age, 61 years; age range, 39-78 years) 250 HCCs underwent CT liver. A quadruple-phase protocol that included...
Background Sarcopenia evaluated by computed tomography (CT) scan at the lumbar site has been identified as a risk factor for morbidity and mortality in cirrhosis. Aim The aim of this study was to compare measurement muscle mass through CT scan, considered gold standard, with other reliable techniques evaluate rate agreement between different available methods assessment correlation measurements strength also investigated. Patients Adult patients eligible liver transplantation were studied....
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common hepatic disorder worldwide, reaching prevalence up to 90 % in obese patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), and representing an independent risk factor for cardiovascular mortality. Furthermore, coexistence of T2D NAFLD leads higher incidence diabetes’ complications additive detrimental outcomes. The existence a close association between hypovitaminosis D, along anti-inflammatory insulin-sensitizing properties vitamin have been...
Objectives The objectives of this study were to evaluate the efficacy in pain management magnetic resonance (MR)–guided focused ultrasound for primary treatment painful bone metastases and assess its potential local control metastases. Materials Methods This was a prospective, single-arm research with approval from institutional review board. Eighteen consecutive patients (female, 8; male, 10; mean [SD] age, 62.7 [11.5] years) enrolled. examined clinically severity interference accordance...
