Background: The development of novel medical imaging technologies and treatment procedures hinges on the availability accurate versatile phantoms. This paper presents a cost-effective approach for creating anthropomorphic abdominal Methods: study proposes method using 3D printing readily available materials (beeswax, plaster, epoxy resin) to create high-fidelity three-dimensionally printed phantoms exhibited X-ray attenuation properties closely matching those human tissues, with measured...

For more than two years, coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) has represented a threat to global health and lifestyles. Computed tomography (CT) imaging provides useful information in patients with COVID-19 pneumonia. However, this diagnostic modality is based on exposure ionizing radiation, which associated an increased risk of radiation-induced cancer. In study, we evaluated the common dose descriptors, CTDI

Computed tomography (CT) is a diagnostic imaging process that uses ionising radiation to obtain information about the interior anatomic structure of human body. Considering medical use implies exposing patients may lead unwanted stochastic effects and those are less probable at lower doses, optimising protocols great importance. In this paper, we used an assembled 3D-printed infant head phantom matched its image quality parameters with obtained for commercially available adult using protocol...

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is caused by a infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).

MRI techniques of the lumbar spine have not provided data on effect gravity and relationship anatomic structures during its action. Because conventional examinations are usually performed in supine position these often exacerbated by standing upright evident loading conditions differ from those known to cause symptoms patients with instability. Axial imaging may improve diagnostics clinical management LBP lead appropriate treatment decisions.The aim this study is determine significance alMRI...

Introduction: Axial-loaded magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which can simulate an upright position of the patient may cause a significant reduction dural sac cross-sectional area (DCSA) compared with standard MRI, thus providing valuable information in assessment lumbar spinal canal. The purpose this study was to investigate excessiveness change DCSA and depth lateral recesses (DLRs) before after axial-loaded relation body mass index (BMI) subjects.Methods: Twenty patients were scanned...

Introduction: Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration (IDD) is one of the main causes low back pain (LBP). Standardized diagnostic algorithms for adequate estimation and classification changes lumbar discs are mandatory before starting with therapy.Methods: One hundred patients who were indicated magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) included in study. Pfirrmann grading system was used determination IDD, while visual analog scale (VAS) evaluation intensity LBP. To quantification disability LBP, we...

Introduction: Stroke is the second leading underlying cause of death globally and disability in adults. diagnosis should be performed quickly efficiently to eliminate other potential causes neurological deficits assess time since onset clinical symptoms. Computed tomography (CT) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are essential methods detecting evaluating stroke type treatmentoptions. Diffusion perfusion MR recommended for early diagnosis, as well selection patients recanalization therapy,...

Introduction: Computed tomography angiography (CTA) represents the gold standard as a method for diagnosis of carotid artery diseases. The current topic is use CTA evaluation arteries with reduction in dose contrast agent and ionizing radiation, which, adequate preparation, would enable this some risk groups. aim study was to evaluate feasibility image quality new low-dose protocol comparison protocol. Methods: Forty patients recumbent ischemic stroke were included study, twenty whom...

Background: Multiple sclerosis is a chronic demyelinating disease of the central nervous system, that causes permanent disabilities.Diagnostics this by magnetic resonance requires appliance corresponding protocols with sequences emphasize plaques.Standard T1 and T2 sometimes cannot clearly show plaques, it necessary to work on perfecting changes in brain formed as plaques.The aim survey: The survey was estimate value MR sequence double inversion recovery (DIR) discovering lesions multiple...

The clinical appliance of perfusion is being continuously developed and it closely related to technology development. role neuroimaging in the management acute stroke has been prove reduced regional blood flow give contribution identification ischemic areas, respectively regions hypoperfusion that can be treated by thrombolytic and/or endovascular recanalization therapy. There are two main approaches measurement cerebral magnetic resonance. aim this article compare different measuring MR...

Vertebral artery fenestration is a rare vascular anomaly. It most commonly occurs in extracranial segments of the vertebral artery. This congenital anomaly can occur during various stages embryonic development usually does not have clinical significance, but possibility associated anomalies such as saccular aneurysms and arteriovenous malformations should be noted. Awareness key to avoiding iatrogenic injury endovascular diagnostic therapeutic interventions. Here, we present incidental...

Experience in managing thromboembolic complications of distal blood vessels during coil embolization the case subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is still limited. This presentation a 23-year-old man with ruptured small aneurysm who experienced occlusion embolization. Mechanical thrombectomy resulted complete recanalization occluded branches without ischemic complications. should be used for use mechanical thrombectomies as an effective rescue strategy and treatment arteries occlusions brain.

Background: Spinal hydatid cyst represents a rare form of parasitic infection and is serious clinical condition that can cause severe consequences such as paraplegia, tetraplegia, or radiculopathy. Objective: In this article, we report case lumbar in 50-year-old man. Case presentation: We primary cyst. Recurrence was diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), although the patient had surgery taking albendazole regularly. Conclusion: MRI should be used to diagnose disease. Complete...

A fetus with suspicion for holoprosencephaly and various brain malformations were seen on ultrasound send magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Immediately after the birth of female patient MRI was made which confirmed lobar holoprosencephaly. Fetal stands out as a powerful diagnostic tool detecting anomalies other disorders. By developing new sequences raising image quality will enable visualization small details.
