Safety Essentials: Acute Reactions to Iodinated Contrast Media Tập 64 Số 3 - Trang 193-199 - 2013
Ramesh S. Iyer, Jennifer G. Schopp, Jonathan O. Swanson, Mahesh Thapa, Grace S. Phillips
The objectives of this article are to review the diagnosis and management of acute nonrenal reactions to iodinated contrast media. We will begin by discussing the types of contrast media and their correlative rates of reaction. The mechanism of contrast reactions, predisposing risk factors, and preventative measures will then be discussed. The remainder of the article will review the asse...... hiện toàn bộ Early Radiographic and Tomographic Manifestations of Legionnaires' Disease Tập 68 Số 3 - Trang 328-333 - 2017
R. Poirier, Jean‐Paul Rodrigue, Jasmin Villeneuve, Yves Lacasse
PurposeLegionnaires' disease (LD) may occur sporadically or in the course of outbreaks, where the typical radiological manifestations of the disease may better be delineated. We took advantage of a rare community-based epidemic of LD (181 patients) that occurred in 2012 in Quebec City, Canada, to describe the radiographic features of LD and compare the it...... hiện toàn bộ Radiology Interest Groups: A Recipe for Success Tập 72 Số 3 - Trang 343-351 - 2021

Objectives: Radiology Interest Groups (RIGs) are valuable for medical students and the radiology profession. The purpose of this study is to identify key components of a successful RIG and to discuss how to optimize available resources to increase student engagement in radiology. Methods: Anon...... hiện toàn bộ Endovascular Therapy for Acute Trauma: A Pictorial Review Tập 65 - Trang 158-167 - 2014

The traditional role of radiology in the multidisciplinary approach to modern trauma care has been primarily diagnostic and noninvasive. With the advent of more sophisticated and faster imaging equipment, computed tomography has further entrenched its role as the workhorse of trauma imaging. However, the specialty has evolved over the years with various therapeutic techniques now part of ...... hiện toàn bộ Managing Incidentalomas Safely: Do Computed Tomography Requisitions Tell Us What We Need to Know? Tập 68 - Trang 387-391 - 2017
Matthew Walker, Joy Borgaonkar, Daria Manos
Purpose Technological advancements and the ever-increasing use of computed tomography (CT) have greatly increased the detection of incidental findings, including tiny pulmonary nodules. The management of many “incidentalomas” is significantly influenced by a patient's history of cancer. The study aim is to determine if CT requisitions include prior histor...... hiện toàn bộ Forefoot Pain in the Lesser Toes: Anatomical Considerations and Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings Tập 70 - Trang 408-415 - 2019
Tine Hulstaert, Maryam Shahabpour, Steven Provyn, Leon Lenchik, Philip Simons, Ruben Vanheste, Michel De Maeseneer
Various conditions may result in forefoot pain. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging allows accurate assessment of many of these conditions. We provide an overview of forefoot disorders divided into bones, capsule and plantar plate, musculotendinous structures, neurovascular structures, and subcutaneous tissue. We review normal anatomical features as well as MR imaging findings of common disor...
Risk Stratification in Multinodular Goiter: A Retrospective Review of Sonographic Features, Histopathological Results, and Cancer Risk Tập 68 - Trang 425-430 - 2017

Purpose In the management of thyroid nodules, although the potential for malignancy exists, there is also the potential for overtreatment of subclinical disease. Although the TI-RADS (Thyroid Imaging-Reporting and Data System) system outlines a risk stratification score based on suspicious ultrasound findings, it has not been universally accepted. Many TI...... hiện toàn bộ Local Diagnostic Reference Levels for Typical Radiographic Procedures Tập 63 - Trang 237-241 - 2012

Purpose To establish local diagnostic reference levels (DRL) for typical radiographic examinations in a fully digital imaging institution. Methods The initial survey included 6 standard radiographic projections performed in 19 computed radiography (CR) and digital radiography (DR) rooms. Becau...... hiện toàn bộ
