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
Jessica L. Dobson, Andrew Fenwick, Victoria Linehan, Angus Hartery
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.

 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...
 Many Faces of Thoracic Histoplasmosis—Pictorial Essay Tập 70  - Trang 273-281 - 2019
Alexandre Semionov, Anthony Rossi, Michele Perillo, Karl Sayegh, Josephine Pressacco, John Kosiuk
 Histoplasmosis is primarily a pulmonary fungal infection with a vast array of radiological manifestations, which can mimic a number of thoracic diseases. This article reviews various presentations of histoplasmosis on chest imaging. 
 Strategies for Reducing Radiation Exposure from Multidetector Computed Tomography in the Acute Care Setting Tập 64  - Trang 119-129 - 2013
Aaron Sodickson
 Many tools and strategies exist to enable reduction of radiation exposure from computed tomography (CT). The common CT metrics of x-ray output, the volume CT dose index and the dose-length product, are explained and serve as the basis for monitoring radiation exposure from CT. Many strategies to dose-optimize CT protocols are explored that, in combination with available hardware and softw......  hiện toàn bộ
 The Impact of Diagnostic Imaging Wait Times on the Prognosis of Lung Cancer Tập 66  - Trang 53-57 - 2015
Suzanne C. Byrne, Brendan Barrett, Rick Bhatia
Objective This study was performed to determine whether gaps in patient flow from initial lung imaging to computed tomography (CT) guided lung biopsy in patients with non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) was associated with a change in tumour size, stage, and thus prognosis. Methods All patients......  hiện toàn bộ
 Imaging of Pulmonary Embolus: Thrombotic, Nonthrombotic, and Mimickers Tập 69  - Trang 328-337 - 2018
Jaramie Thomas-Gittens, Alexandre Semionov, Josephine Pressacco
Pulmonary embolism is a common and potentially fatal pathological condition. Imaging plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and differentiation of the causes of pulmonary embolus. Here we present typical imaging findings associated with both thrombotic and nonthrombotic pulmonary emboli, as well as their potential mimickers.
 Sharing De-identified Medical Images Electronically for Research: A Survey of Patients' Opinion regarding Data Management Tập 70  - Trang 212-218 - 2019
Rasha Mahmoud, Alan R. Moody, Moran Foster, Natasha Girdharry, Loreta Sinn, Bowen Zhang, Mariam Afshin, Thayalasuthan Vivekanandan, Samantha Santoro, Pascal N. Tyrrell
Purpose Secondary usage of patient data has recently become of increasing interest for the development and application of computer analytic techniques. Strict oversight of these data is required and the individual patients themselves are integral to providing guidance. We sought to understand patients' attitudes to sharing their imaging data for research ......  hiện toàn bộ
