Abstract Chorioangioma is a benign vascular tumor of the placenta arising from primitive chorionic mesenchyme. Large (>4 cm) chorioangiomas are much rarer and often associated with maternal and/or fetal complications. We describe sonographic features large placental chorioangioma normal outcome. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Clin Ultrasound, 2008

Aim: The current study aimed to evaluate the use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in diagnosis extremity soft tissue tumors and tumor-like abnormalities. Methods: This prospective observational 71 patients with lesions extremities was conducted at a tertiary hospital teaching center western India after obtaining Institutional Ethical Committee (IEC) clearance. All underwent an MRI region interest on Siemens Magnetom Vida 3 Tesla (Erlangen, Germany). findings were correlated clinically...

Background and objective Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which causes disease 2019 (COVID-19), was first identified in Wuhan, China December 2019. Since then, It has spread across multiple countries declared a pandemic by WHO March 2020. Patients with underlying diabetes mellitus (DM) are deemed at-risk for developing severe COVID-19 infection. In light of this, we aimed to evaluate the correlation between DM chest CT severity scores (CTSS) patients. Methods...

Background Pre-operative assessment of middle ear cholesteatoma is a must for assessing the disease's location, extent, and complication, high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) modality choice. Therefore, this study aims to assess common signs on HRCT its diagnostic ability. Methods Fifty patients with suspected were considered study, which was carried out an Ingenuity Core 128 slice CT scanner (Philips, Amsterdam, Netherlands). The bilateral temporal bones 50 assessed soft tissue...

IntrOductIOnDoppler ultrasound is a noninvasive method used for quick and cost-effective evaluation of peripheral arterial disease.It as first line investigation in these patients has been proven to accurately provide information about circulation [1-3].However, there difficulty detection aortoiliac lesions many due inadequate visualization arteries.Ramaswami G et al., reported non 20% segments by color duplex sonography because factors like obesity, bowel gases, use higher frequency...

Mesenchymal chondrosarcomas, although very rare compared with conventional are one of the few primary malignant tumours bone that sometimes also arise in soft tissues. Here we present a case retroperitoneal extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma (ESMC) 50-year-old female showed characteristic extensive calcification. In this report, discuss CT features ESMC pathological correlation.

To assess the utility of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) with apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps and T2* mapping in quantitative analysis nucleus pulposus (NP) annulus fibrosus (AF) lumbar intervertebral discs its correlation modified Pfirrmann grading (MPG) for degenerative disc disease (LDDD).One hundred subjects (20-74 years age) underwent T2-weighted, DWI ADC magnetic resonance imaging. MPG was applied to L3-L4, L4-L5, L5-S1 discs, values NP AF were calculated mid-sagittal plane...

Dengue fever, the most common arboviral tropical disease, has shown a rapid increase in incidence over last few decades. Increasing evidence of various neurological manifestations dengue been documented literature. Patients positive for on serology and with were analysed included present case series brief review. The cases reveal spectrum findings infection include haemorrhagic encephalitis, acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM), reversible splenial lesion syndrome (RESLES),...

Mandibular osteomyelitis often is associated with involvement of the soft tissues. The purpose this study was to clarify relationship between CT patterns and presence inflammation in 30 cases diagnosed mandible were evaluated scans. classified into four types: lytic, sclerotic, mixed & sequestrum patterns. Location extent lesion change cortical plate evaluated. data demonstrate a close interaction disruption muscle inflammation. including tissue better appreciated

Background Identifying early predictors of severe Covid-19 associated mucormycosis (CAM) can help improve management and treatment outcomes.Objectives Primary: To identify clinical radiological disease severity in CAM. Secondary: describe patterns central nervous system (CNS) involvement CAM.Methods A total 71 patients with CAM were included the study. Based on anatomical extent MRI, divided into three groups: Sinus (paranasal sinuses), Orbit (orbital spread), CNS (CNS spread). Clinical...

Abstract Background Several research studies have demonstrated the utility of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in detecting middle ear cholesteatomas, especially with non-echoplanar (non-EPI) DWI technique. REadout Segmentation Of Long Variable Echo trains (RESOLVE), a multishot-EPI DWI, has better spatial resolution at thinner section acquisition reduced image distortion compared to single-shot-EPI Purpose In this study, we evaluated diagnostic ability RESOLVE -DWI cholesteatomas surgical...

Ectopic thyroid gland occurs due to aberrant descent of primitive the final pre-tracheal position and failure fusion anlages. Submandibular ectopic is a rare anomaly that can present with or without an orthotopic gland. We case young female hypothyroidism left submandibular swelling demonstrated be colloid nodular goitre on imaging cytology.

Paragangliomas are chromaffin cell tumors that arise from neural crest cells and extremely rare. Multiple paragangliomas in different locations of the neck abdomen same patient highly uncommon. We give instance a hypertensive male aged 42 years with history breathlessness, chest pain, excessive perspiration for 10 days.
