DTS performed with a low-dose technique is superior to radiography for the detection of lung lesions in patients with pulmonary mycobacterial disease.

BACKGROUND: Although uterine artery embolization (UAE) is a well-recognized alternative treatment for postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) with a high clinical efficacy, the reported success rate of UAE for PPH associated with placenta accreta (PA) is lower. Recently, with advances in techniques and expertise, a few studies have reported favorable results of UAE in controlling PPH in the setting of PA. PURPOSE: To evaluate the efficacy of UAE in the emergent management of intractable PPH associated with

Shear wave elastography (SWE) is a recent technological advance of ultrasonography (US) to assess tissue stiffness. The purpose of this study is to assess tissue stiffness of malignant cervical lymph nodes (LN) with SWE, to reveal diagnostic performance of SWE in differentiating metastatic LN from lymphoma, and to assess inter-observer agreement of SWE. We assessed 62 malignant LN (24 lymphomas and 38 metastatic LN) and their median speed was 6.34 m/s and median elasticity was 69.7 kPa. Add of S

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Developmental venous anomalies are the most common intracranial vascular malformation. Increased signal-intensity on T2-FLAIR images in the areas drained by developmental venous anomalies are encountered occasionally on brain imaging studies. We evaluated diffusion and perfusion MR imaging findings of the abnormally high signal intensity associated with developmental venous anomalies to describe their pathophysiologic nature. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively revi

The aim of this study was to evaluate whether pleomorphic invasive lobular carcinoma (PILC) is different from classic invasive lobular carcinoma (CILC) in terms of radiologic and clinicopathologic features. We compared the radiologic and clinicopathologic features of 22 surgically confirmed PILCs in 21 patients from 2004 to 2009 and 47 CILCs from 47 consecutive patients. For all cases, we reviewed the imaging findings, medical records and pathological results. PILC had a higher T stage, N stage,

Patient radiation dose from low dose DT is comparable with that of PNS XR. Diagnostic sensitivity of DT for sinusitis was superior to PNS XR.

Fungus ball can be suggested by the presence of the hyper-signal intensity portions in the fungal mass on T1WI in conjunction with dark-signal lesions surrounded by high-signal, hypertrophic mucosal walls in paranasal sinuses on T2WI.

Estimated elasticity values based on DWI-based virtual MR elastography show significant difference between benign and metastatic cervical lymph nodes from head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. While precise modulation of MR sequences and calibration parameters still needs to be established, elasticity values can be useful in differentiating between these lymph nodes.

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to compare the diagnostic performance of deep learning algorithm trained by single view (anterior-posterior (AP) or lateral view) with that trained by multiple views (both views together) in diagnosis of mastoiditis on mastoid series and compare the diagnostic performance between the algorithm and radiologists. METHODS: Total 9,988 mastoid series (AP and lateral views) were classified as normal or abnormal (mastoiditis) based on radiographic findings. Among them 792

Background Administration of gadolinium-contrast can cause problems in cardiac amyloidosis (CA) patients with impaired renal function. Purpose To compare patterns of cardiovascular magnetic resonance tissue tracking (CMR-TT) for CA and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and to assess the feasibility of CMR-TT to distinguish between these diseases without administration of gadolinium-contrast. Material and Methods Included were 54 patients with biopsy-proven CA, 40 patients with HCM, and 30 health
