The purpose of this article is to provide a current review of the spectrum of multidetector CT (MDCT) and MRI findings for a variety of cardiac neoplasms. In the diagnosis of cardiac tumors, the use of MDCT and MRI can help differentiate benign from malignant masses. Especially, the use of MDCT is advantageous in providing anatomical information and MRI is useful for tissue characterization of cardiac masses. Knowledge of the characteristic MRI findings of benign cardiac tumors or thrombi can be

BACKGROUND: The risk of breast cancer related to changes in breast density over time, including its regression and persistence, remains controversial. The authors investigated the relationship between breast density and its changes over time with the development of breast cancer in premenopausal and postmenopausal women. METHODS: The current cohort study included 74,249 middle-aged Korean women (aged ≥35 years) who were free of breast cancer at baseline and who underwent repeated screening mammo

CEDM demonstrated a diagnostic performance comparable with CEMRI in depicting index cancers, secondary cancers, and occult cancer in the contralateral breast. CEDM demonstrated similar changes in surgical management compared with CEMRI.

The impact of variations in serum thyroid hormone concentration within the euthyroid range on breast cancer risk remains unclear. We investigated the effect of serum thyrotropin (TSH) and thyroid hormone concentration on breast cancer risk. This cohort study involved 62,546 Korean women, aged ≥40 years, who were free of breast cancer at baseline and underwent health examination with determination of free thyroxine (FT4) and TSH. A parametric proportional hazard model was used to estimate the adj

SET is safe and effective, not only for low-risk patients with early-detected cancer, but also for selected cases of advanced cancer.

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to determine the feasibility of image-guided marker-clip placement in axillary lymph nodes (ALNs) for breast cancer upon initial presentation and to assess the reliability of this method with sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) for axillary restaging after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). METHODS: Between June 2015 and August 2016, a marker clip was placed at a clinically positive ALN under ultrasonography (US) guidance before initiation of NAC in 20 patients.

The purpose of this article is to review the imaging features of thoracic epithelioid hemangioendotheliomas with pathologic correlation. The thoracic manifestation of epithelioid hemangioendotheliomas is one of three different CT patterns: multiple pulmonary nodules, multiple pulmonary reticulonodular opacities, or diffuse infiltrative pleural thickening. Without any evidence of histological malignancy, malignant features (multiplicity of pulmonary nodules, hepatic or bone involvement, lymphangi

본 연구의 목적은 문화예술교육 프로그램이 저소득층 아동에게 미치는 영향을 알아보는데 있다. 문화예술교육 프로그램의 내용은 연극, 미술, 악기, 무용으로 구성되었으며, 다양한 교습법, 내용, 공연관람과 같은 체험 및 사후 활동, 발표회 등으로 이루어졌다. 기간은 2010년 5월부터 약 8개월 간 주 1회 진행되었다. 문화예술교육의 영향을 알아보기 위해 안산 자바르떼 교육과정에 참여한 38명의 아동들을 대상으로 관찰과 면담, 예술 강사 및 유치원 교사 및 학부모 면담을 진행했다. 연구 결과 다음과 같은 점들이 발견되었다. 첫째, 문화예술교육 프로그램에 참여한 아이들에게서 발표력과 자신감 향상이 눈에 띄게 나타났는데 특히 수줍음이 많고 내성적이었던 아이들과 언어적 능력이 부족한 다문화가정의 아이들이 발표를 잘하게 되거나, 발표를 하고 싶어 하며, 시도하려는 모습을 볼 수 있었다. 둘째, 타인 배려 능력과 의사소통 능력의 향상이 발견되었다. 특히 예술수업을 통해 사회적인 관계를 형성하는 기

Awareness of the characteristic sonographic findings of various disease entities that cause axillary masses will help in the correct diagnosis of axillary masses.

We present here a very rare case of metastatic relapse in the pancreas of a 4-year-old boy who had been treated for stage 4 neuroblastoma. Computed tomography showed multiple metastatic masses in the pancreas with secondary pancreatitis. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of pancreatic metastasis in a child with neuroblastoma.

BACKGROUND: incidental detection of solid renal masses has been increasing since the multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) scanner was introduced. PURPOSE: to evaluate the clinico-radio-pathologic features of a solitary solid renal mass at MDCT examination. MATERIAL AND METHODS: a total of 466 non-fatty solid renal masses in 466 patients undergoing nephrectomy were evaluated by MDCT examination. MDCT was performed before and after intravenous injection of contrast material. We obtained the in
