To compare magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), and clinical examination for delineating early cervical cancer measuring tumor size.A 25-center study enrolled 208 patients with biopsy-proven invasive MRI CT before attempted curative radical hysterectomy. Each was interpreted prospectively by one onsite radiologist retrospectively four independent offsite radiologists, who were all blinded to surgical, histopathologic, other findings. Likelihood of stromal uterine body...
Purpose: To retrospectively compare diagnostic performance and interobserver variability for computed tomography (CT) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in the pretreatment evaluation of early invasive cervical cancer, with surgical pathologic findings as reference standard. Materials Methods: This HIPAA-compliant study had institutional review board approval informed consent preoperative CT (n = 146) and/or MR 152) studies 156 women (median age, 43 years; range, 22–81 years) from a previous...
Pelvic organ prolapse results in a spectrum of progressively disabling disorders. Despite attempts to standardize the clinical examination, variety imaging techniques are used. The purpose this study was evaluate dynamic pelvic magnetic resonance and cystocolpoproctography surgical management females with complex floor disorders.Twenty-two patients were identified from Johns Hopkins Floor Disorders Center database who had symptoms underwent resonance, cystocolpoproctography, subsequent...
The subperitoneal space and peritoneal cavity are two mutually exclusive spaces that separated by the peritoneum. Each is a single continuous with interconnected regions. Disease can spread either within or to distant sites in abdomen pelvis via these interconnecting pathways. also cross peritoneum from vice versa.
We present the pelvic floor anatomy of major musculature in classic bladder exstrophy, including levator ani, obturator internus and externus. By improving our knowledge we hope to understand better relationship bony as well role osteotomy changing enhance urinary control after surgery.3-Dimensional computerized tomography was done 6 boys 1 girl, 5 patients 2 days months old (mean age 7 months) undergoing primary closure who were 4 8 years repeat closure. The musculature, externus, these...
The purpose of this study was to determine whether intravenous injection a magnetic resonance (MR) contrast agent, ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide (ferumoxtran-10), can be useful in characterizing lymph nodes patients with lung cancer. Twelve known or suspected cancer were studied. Pre- and postcontrast ferumoxtran-10 MR scans the chest obtained. Analysis signal intensities bronchoscopic fine needle aspiration single node performed each patient. Six 12 had final diagnosis T1-weighted...
To investigate the hypothesis that architecture of bony pelvis differs between women with and without pelvic floor disorders. We designed a case-control study who had undergone magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at our institution. Records were reviewed to identify disorders (urinary or anal incontinence, other symptoms urinary tract dysfunction, organ prolapse). Pelvimetry techniques standardized. Relevant measures included transverse diameter inlet, angle pubic arch, intertuberous diameter,...
Endometrial cancer is the most common gynecologic and fourth malignancy in women United States. Cross-sectional imaging plays a vital role pretreatment assessment of endometrial cancers should be viewed as complementary tool for surgical evaluation planning these patients. Although transvaginal US remains preferred examination screening purposes, MRI has emerged modality choice staging recurrence or treatment response. A combination dynamic contrast-enhanced diffusion weighted provides...
The demographics of tuberculosis (TB) and the therapy malignancies have significantly changed since last comprehensive review TB in cancer patients. Fifty-six patients with both malignancy were identified from January 1989 through December 1994 a population 61,931 newly registered frequency was 90 per 100,000. more frequent foreign-born (p < 0.001) racial ethnic minorities than non-Hispanic whites. developed during 48%. discovered synchronously 30% 21% occurred ≥18 months after therapy....
