Tendinopathies and tendon tears account for over 30% of all musculoskeletal consultations. Obesity, which is becoming one the world´s most prevalent public health issues, may be associated with this condition.To review literature about tendinopathies obesity association.This a descriptive exploratory study using portal Medline. Literature in English language from 2006 to 2014 were reviewed.The pathogenesis includes inflammatory, regenerative degenerative processes that happen simultaneously...
Syndesmotic injury in an athletic population is associated with a prolonged ankle disability after sprain and often requires longer recovery than lateral collateral ligament injury. Although several imaging tests are available, diagnosing syndesmotic instability remains challenging.To determine the diagnostic accuracy of conventional computed tomography (CT) scans joint external rotation dorsiflexion compare it that CT neutral position.Cohort study (Diagnosis); Level evidence, 2.Between...
Hip arthroplasty is a widely used and successful orthopedic procedure for the treatment of degenerative, inflammatory, or traumatic joint disease. The promotes significant pain relief, as well recovery limb function, reduction disability, better quality life. However, there are related complications, which have characteristic imaging aspects. In present study, we review literature exemplify such complications using images obtained at our facility, illustrating main radiological aspects...
Our study aimed to explore real-world treatment scenarios for children and adolescents with neurotrophic tropomyosin receptor kinase (NTRK)-fused tumors, emphasizing access, responses, side effects, outcomes.
Focal bone lesions are not uncommon findings in the daily practice of radiology. Therefore, it is essential to differentiate between with aggressive, malignant potential that require action and those have no clinical significance, many which variants or benign lesions, sometimes self-limited related reactive processes. In some cases, a diagnostic error can catastrophic results. For example, biopsy performed patient myositis ossificans lead an incorrect diagnosis sarcomatous consequently...
AbstractObjective:To describe the prevalence of carpal tunnel syndrome in a sample 200 healthy hospital workers, establishing respective epidemiological associations.Materials and Methods:Two hundred individuals were submitted to wrist ultrasonography measure median nerve area. They questioned examined for data, body mass index, signs symptoms, Boston questionnaire (BCTQ) evaluate severity. A area ≥ 9 mm2 was considered be diagnostic syndrome.Results:Carpal diagnosed by 34% sample. It...
Introduction Although several imaging options are available for diagnosing syndesmotic injury, a fundamental question that guides treatment remains unanswered. Syndesmotic instability is still challenging to diagnose correctly, and disruption true should be differentiated. Currently, tests quickly severe but have difficulty in mild moderate cases. This study aims investigate which strategy among an existing CT index test two new add-on with stress manoeuvres more accurately diagnoses...
Plantar vein thrombosis (PVT) is an underdiagnosed condition affecting the deep plantar veins, with challenging clinical diagnosis, often presenting non-specific symptoms that mimic other foot pathologies. This study assessed magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of patients diagnosed PVT to contribute understanding this condition. We performed comprehensive analysis a substantial dataset, including 112 patients, total 130 positive MRI scans (86 forefoot and 44 ankle) PVT. Upon...
ABSTRACT Background: The C reactive protein (CRP) is one of the most accurate inflammatory markers in acute appendicitis (AA). Obesity leads to a pro-inflammatory state with increased CRP, which may interfere interpretation this laboratory test AA. Aim: To assess sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative (NPV) CRP patients AA their correlation body mass index (BMI) fat composition. Method: This retrospective study based on clinical records imaging studies 191...
Abstract The term avascular necrosis describes any one of a number bone diseases that have common mechanism: the death components due to lack blood supply. Avascular can occur in diverse parts skeleton, each location-specific form not only receiving distinct designation but also presenting unique epidemiologic characteristics. However, imaging findings are similar all forms, which pass through well-described radiological phases, regardless site involvement. Because cause considerable...
Radiology departments were forced to make significant changes in their routine during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, prevent further transmission of and optimize medical care as well. In this article, we describe our Department's policies a private hospital for preparedness focusing on quality safety patient submitted imaging tests, healthcare team involved exams, requesting physician, other patients environment.

Snapping scapula syndrome manifests as an audible or palpable crackling during the sliding movements of over rib cage, often perceived physical professional activities. It can be caused by morphological alteration and imbalance in periscapular musculature forces (dyskinesia), neoplasia (bone tumors soft tissue tumors). In this pictorial essay, we review main causes snapping syndrome, exemplified a collection didactic cases.A síndrome da escápula em ressalto manifesta-se como uma crepitação...
To evaluate the prevalence of carpal tunnel syndrome in candidates for bariatric surgery comparing with non-obese population and verify effects on it treatment.We studied three groups individuals: 1) patients waiting (preoperative); 2) individuals who had already undergone procedure (postoperative); 3) control group. We collected demographic clinical data syndrome. The Ultrasound examination was carried out to diagnose by measuring median nerve area.We included 329 (114 preoperative group,...
We aimed to determine the value of ultrasonography (US) in diagnosis carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS).Two hundred patients (400 hands) were submitted wrist US measure median nerve area (MNA), questioning on paresthesia and pain territory, Tinel Phalen maneuvers. An MNA > 9 mm(2) was considered diagnostic CTS.Measurement by 27% hands. A good association with (p < 0.0001), test 0.0001) found. According clinical criteria for classification CTS from American Academy Neurology had 64.8% sensibility...
