Objective
Assessing the role of MSCT compared to TTE in pediatric patients with congenital heart diseases especially the thoracic congenital vascular anomalies.Methods
54 pediatric patients underwent a 128 detectors computed tomography cardiac angiography with retrospective ECG-gating. Images were reviewed based on segmental approach using the operative data (35/54 patients) or cardiac catheterization (19/54 patients) findings as reference standard. Sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values and accuracy of TTE and MDCT were evaluated.Results
MDCT was superior to TTE in evaluating vascular lesions (aortic, conotruncal, coronary artery, major aorto-pulmonary collaterals, patent ductus arteriosus, venous anomalies and postoperative complications) as well as pulmonary lesions; while TTE was superior in intracardiac anomalies with equal performance in (pulmonary artery anomalies, concordance and valvular atresia). MDCT achieved (100%, 96.3% and 87%) accuracies compared to TTE (94.4%, 85.2% & 96.3%) for delineating isolated vascular anomalies, complex vascular anomalies and intracardiac anomalies respectively.Conclusion
The main added value of cardiac MDCT to TTE is the precise illustration of the extracardiac anatomic structures, without adding significant information on intracardiac abnormalities. Using MDCT with TTE has improved the diagnostic accuracy thus obviating the need for diagnostic cardiac catheterization especially in critically ill patients. 相似文献2.

Purpose
To demonstrate the hemodynamic changes of pulmonary arterial hypertension using cardiac MRI and to determine which parameters are best representative of the pulmonary artery pressure.Patient and methods
We examined 44 patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension using cine cardiac imaging and phase-contrast velocity encoding sequence to obtain data regarding ventricular morphology, function and pulmonary artery flow. The resulting parameters were correlated to echocardiography-derived mean pulmonary artery pressure.Results
We found increased right ventricular end diastolic, end systolic volumes and mass with decreased stroke volume and ejection fraction. The left ventricular end diastolic volume and stroke volume decreased and the end systolic volume increased while the ventricular mass index has increased compared to normal populations. The mean pulmonary artery pressure had significant positive correlation with the ventricular mass index (r = 0.61; p = 0.02) and right ventricular mass (r = 0.40; p = 0.02) with significant negative correlation with right ventricular ejection fraction (r = ?0.48; p = 0009).Conclusion
MR-derived ventricular mass index, right ventricular mass, and right ventricular ejection fraction had the strongest relation with the pulmonary artery pressure, and hence they could be reliable parameters on monitoring patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension. 相似文献3.

Objective
Our aim was to present a single-center experience in the management of gallbladder perforation (GBP).Patients and methods
Adult patients who had GBP were managed surgically and percutaneously. Patients who were high risk surgical candidates or who refused surgery were managed by image guided percutaneous drainage.Results
Thirty-seven patients (21 males, 16 females) with an average age of 64 ± 14 years had GBP. The number of patients with GBP type I, II, and III were 13, 21, and 3, respectively. All GBP types I and III patients were treated surgically. Eleven of GBP type II patients were treated surgically, and 10 were treated by percutaneous catheter drainage. The overall mortality rate was 27% (10/37). No procedure-related mortality rate among those patients who were treated percutaneously; however, 30 days post procedure, the mortality rate was 30%. All of these deaths were related to the patients’ comorbidities; none of them was due to septicemia but conversely in surgically treated patients, 5 died due to septicemia (3 in GBP type I and 2 in GBP type II) in the postoperative period and one patient died because of severe internal hemorrhage complicating acute pancreatitis and one patient died few months later because of myocardial infarction.Conclusion
Surgery is the cornerstone of treatment for all types of GBP. Percutaneous catheter drainage is a safe and effective option for treating patients with localized disease with favorable outcome. 相似文献4.

Background
Characterization of tendo-ligamentous pathologies of wrist remains problematic, despite advances in imaging. By using clinical history and imaging appearance, one can determine the diagnosis. USG is used as first imaging modality whereas MRI aids in making a specific diagnosis of few of the lesions.Aims
To investigate the etiological spectrum of tendo-ligamentous pathologies of wrist on USG & MRI with statistical correlation.Patients and methods
80 patients (male/female = 46/34) with complaint of swelling or pain in wrist were included and underwent USG and MRI of both the wrists.Results
The spectrum included ganglion cysts, vascular malformations, tenosynovitis, tendinopathy, ligament tears and fibrosis. The analysis was done using kappa coefficient and spearman's rho correlation coefficient. The strength of agreement between USG and MRI for the diagnosis of ganglion cysts, vascular malformations, tenosynovitis and tendinopathy was found to be very good.Conclusion
USG provides detailed depiction of superficial structures, is less expensive, and allows dynamic examinations of the wrist. It should be the first choice of investigation for majority of the cystic, tendinous, vascular, and fibrotic pathologies of the wrist. However, less promising results were observed for ligamentous pathologies on USG in our study. 相似文献7.

Purpose
Evaluation of the role of real-time elastography in differentiating between benign and malignant cervical lymph nodes (LNs), comparison with B-mode and Doppler Ultrasonography.Patients and methods
This prospective study included 30 patients, with cervical lymphadenopathy, their age ranged from (18–79 years). The total number of the examined lymph nodes (LNs) was 75 LNs. These (LNs) subjected to B-mode US followed by Doppler evaluation, then elastographic evaluation including strain ratio which was calculated for each lesion, and compared with the histological results after fine needle aspiration cytology.Results
We evaluate the size, shape, echogenicity, and hilum on the B-mode images. The presence of the hilum showed the highest accuracy & sensitivity. Doppler Ultrasonography evaluation of nodal vascular pattern was of high sensitivity & specificity. The calculated sensitivity of elastographic pattern and scoring was 86%, specificity was 100%, PPV and NPV were 100% and 78.1% respectively, and the total accuracy was 90%. The mean elastographic strain ratio for malignant LNs (3.4 ± 1.2) was significantly greater than that for benign LNs (mean, 1.2 ± 0.3).Conclusion
Elastography is a promising improvement for differentiation between benign and malignant cervical lymphadenopathy. Sensitivity and specificity of elastography increased especially if combined with gray scale US and Doppler US. 相似文献8.
Purpose and aim
To assess the role of MSCT angiography in evaluation of extra-cardiac vascular abnormalities in pulmonary venous anomalies and compare it with echocardiography.Materials and methods
This study included 26 patients with an age range of 15 days–25 years. All of these patients underwent MSCT angiography and echocardiography. Only 10 patients underwent cardiac catheterization.Results
Our initial experience showed that MSCT is capable of complementing echocardiography and replacing diagnostic cardiac catheterization for anatomical delineation if performed with an optimum technique.MSCT angiography proved to be a worthy primary investigation tool in patients whom ECHO has been able to clearly identify the intracardiac anatomy, but not the extra-cardiac vascular anatomy.Conclusion
MDCT correctly depicted the TAPVR (Total anomalous pulmonary venous return) and PAPVR (Partial anomalous pulmonary venous return) types of pulmonary venous anomalies with sensitivity 100%, and specificity 100%. The specificity of echocardiography was 50% for both findings. Inspite of the risk of ionizing radiation and contrast medium injection the adoption of our minimal invasive, low radiation, non-ECG gated protocol greatly reduces the time, radiation dose, and contrast medium volume needed to perform an optimum CT angiographic technique. Thus, paving a clear road map for pre and post operative assessment of patients with pulmonary venous anomalies. 相似文献9.

Objective
The goal of this study was to highlight the role of follow up CT angiography examination in detection and classification of endoleaks and therefore deciding management plans after endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR).Patients and Methods
During one year duration 37 patients who have been operated were examined 1 and 6 months after EVAR as routine follow up. The images obtained were interpreted and reconstructed using dedicated software and work stations.Results
Out of 37 cases, 14 cases (37.8%) had positive endoleaks and 23 cases (62.2%) were free. Type I endoleak was diagnosed in 4 cases (10.8%) and type II endoleaks was diagnosed in 10 cases (27%) as 7 cases (18.9%) showed leak through lumbar arteries and 3 cases (8.1%) showed leak through the inferior mesenteric arteries.Conclusion
CT angiography can accurately detect and classify endoleaks and thus determine line of treatment. Endoleaks are often asymptomatic and may become evident intra operatively or many years after the operation, therefore lifelong imaging supervision is necessary. 相似文献10.

Purpose
To evaluate the role of non-contrast multidetector CT (MDCT) reliability in localizing CSF leaks and skull base defects in correlation to operative findings.Materials and methods
Twenty patients clinically diagnosed to have CSF rhinorrhea; 8 spontaneous and 12 post-traumatic patients were evaluated using 64-rows MDCT with slice section 0.6 mm. CT is considered accurate if correctly determine the site and size of bony defect as matched with operative findings.Results
MDCT accurately detected the site of presumed CSF leak in 19 out of 20 cases with sensitivity 95%. Cribriform plate defect is the most common site of defect in 40% of cases with 75% of cases categorized as Keros type II. The consensus image with fair agreement (K = 0.38) shows that coronal reformat has the highest diagnostic performance in 75% of cases while the least diagnostic value is encountered with the axial plane in 15% of cases (p = 0.095). There is almost a perfect agreement (K = 0.810) between the MDCT measurements and operative size of bony defect with minimal difference in 10% of patients (P < 0.001).Conclusion
Non-contrast MDCT is an accurate reliable non-invasive imaging modality for preoperative evaluation of CSF rhinorrhea. 相似文献11.

Purpose
The aim was to evaluate post-operative changes in the Ivy sign on unenhanced fluid-attenuated inversion-recovery (FLAIR) following surgical intervention in pediatric Moyamoya disease (MMD) and assess its clinical utility as an indicator of hemodynamic improvement.Patients and methods
Fifteen pediatric patients with MMD were included in this retrospective study. Surgical revascularization had been done in all patients on the cerebral hemisphere with reduced cerebral vascular reserve (CVR); one of them had bilateral surgery (n = 16). FLAIR examinations were reviewed in each patient, pre and post-operative. We compared the pre and post-operative total Ivy score (TIS) for each of the 16 hemispheres and correlated them with the clinical status.Results
FLAIR images depicted the Ivy sign pre-operatively in all 16 hemispheres and a strong positive correlation between the TIS and the grade of clinical hemispheric symptom (p < 0.00001). Following surgery, reduction of the TIS was seen in 13 (81.25%) out of the 16 hemispheres while the TIS remained unchanged in 3 (18.75%) hemispheres. All patients with reduced Ivy signs post-operatively showed improvement of pre-operative clinical symptoms with moderate positive correlation (p = 0.01).Conclusion
A change in the postoperative Ivy sign can be an indicator of effective cerebral reperfusion in MMD. 相似文献12.

Objectives
To assess the role of DW-MRI and ADC values in distinguishing benign from malignant endometrial disorders.Patients and methods
Pelvic ultrasound, conventional MRI, DW-MRI and histopathologic examinations were done for 42 female patients with abnormal vaginal bleeding. Mean ADC values of endometrial lesions were calculated and compared.Results
Endometrial malignancies showed significant low ADC values (0.82 + 1.09 × 10?3 mm2/s) compared to benign lesions (1.44 + 0.15 × 10?3 mm2/s) (p: 0.000). Using 1.19 × 10?3 mm2/s as cut-off value for distinguishing malignant from benign lesions achieved 88.9% sensitivity and 100% specificity.Conclusion
DW-MRI is useful in distinguishing malignant from benign endometrial lesions and tumor staging as well. 相似文献13.

Aim and objectives
To evaluate the role of dual energy computed tomography in renal stones.Methodology
40 patients (18 male and 22 female) with renal stones were included, their age ranging from 24 to 65 years (mean age 33 years), all patients were scanned first with a standard low-dose renal stone CT, then Dual energy CT examinations were performed by using a single-source dual energy with fast switching between two kilovoltage setting using 80 kV and 140 kV focusing on the region of the stone.Results
Dual energy CT provide reliable distinction between uric acid, Ca oxalate and Cystine stones, it predicted chemical composition of the stones as 22 stones composed of calcium oxalate, 10 stones composed of cystine and 8 stones composed of uric acid. DECT failed to distinguish Ca oxalate from Ca phosphate in 4 stones also failed to identify the mixed composition stones in 3 stones comparing with result of crystallography after passage or extraction of the stone which misdiagnosed as ca oxalate stones.Conclusion
Dual-energy CT has been shown to be effective for characterizing chemical composition of the urinary stones and it will be replace helical non contrast CT as the standard imaging modality. 相似文献14.

Background
Diffusion-weighted imaging is a fundamental tool integrated in MR protocols useful in differentiating benign from malignant mediastinal masses, assessing mediastinal lymphadenopathy and investigating central bronchogenic carcinoma. This method is an excellent alternative to CT or PET/CT in the investigation of mediastinal masses. Current applications of diffusion MRI in malignancies include monitoring the treatment response and detecting recurrent cancer.Aim of the work
This study aims to assess the value of using MRI diffusion in differentiating benign and malignant mediastinal masses, differentiating central masses from post obstructive collapse and differentiating lymphoma versus sarcoidosis.Patients and methods
This study included 30 patients; 16 males and 14 females in the period from June 2013 to July 2014. The mean age was 49.3 ± 16.85 (range: 22–82 years).Cases were referred for MRI assessment and were approved by the ethical committee in our department.The complaints varied between dyspnea, chest pain, cough, hemoptysis, fatigue and loss of weight. A superconducting 1.5 T MRI machine with a four-channel body phased-array coil was used for the examination. Biopsy and histopathological assessment was done after that.Results
MRI examination with diffusion imaging was able to differentiate between benign and malignant mediastinal and hilar lesion confirmed by the biopsy and histopathology.Conclusion
MRI with diffusion weighted images can detect and stage lung cancer, differentiate benign from malignant mediastinal masses and differentiate lymphoma from sarcoidosis in mediastinal/hilar lymphadenopathy. 相似文献16.

Objective
To assess the efficiency of dual energy contrast enhanced mammography in the assessment of the indeterminate breast lesions (BIRADS 3 and BIRADS 4).Materials and methods
34 female having 39 indeterminate breast lesions (BIRADS 3 and BIRADS 4) by digital mammography were further examined by dual energy contrast enhanced mammography. Two images were acquired at low and high energy in MLO view after 2 min and in CC view at 4 min post iodinated contrast injection (1.5 ml/kg with flow of 4 ml/s). Images were processed to obtain subtracted images to enhance the areas of the contrast uptake.Results
Results from pathology were detected for all cases. Contrast enhanced digital mammography showed specificity, sensitivity, PPV, NPV, FDR, FPR and accuracy of 93.75%, 91.3%, 88.2%, 95.4%, 11.7%, 8.6% and 92.3% respectively compared to full field digital mammography which were 68.75%, 69.5%, 61.1%, 76.1%, 38.8%, 30% and 69.2% respectively.Conclusion
Contrast-enhanced digital mammography is a useful tool to be used for breast cancer detection especially in indeterminate lesions (BIRADS 3 and 4). 相似文献17.

Background
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is one of the most commonly encountered psychiatric disorders in daily medical practice. Severity of depression may relate to thalamic neurochemical metabolic changes. Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS) can give an idea about the mechanisms that possibly underlie MDD and the response to therapy.Aim of the work
To detect the possible neurochemical metabolic changes that may occur in both thalami of patients with MDD by multivoxel 1H-MRS of the brain.Materials and methods
Forty-three drug-naïve patients with MDD and 15 age- and sex-matched normal controls were subjected to brain imaging with multivoxel 1.5 T 1H-MRS for measuring the NAA/Cho, NAA/Cr, Cho/Cr, mI/NAA and mI/Cr ratios in the thalamus bilaterally. The severity of depression was assessed by the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS).Results
Patients with MDD showed a significant decrease in the NAA/Cr and NAA/Cho ratios in both thalami compared to normal controls (P < 0.05). Also, the severity of depression was significantly associated with decreased thalamic NAA/Cr and NAA/Cho ratios.Conclusion
The multi-voxel 1H-MRS can provide an insight to the neurochemical metabolic changes occurring in both thalami in patients with MDD. Increased severity of depression is significantly related to these thalamic neurochemical changes. 相似文献18.

Introduction
Hepatic fibrosis is the underlying pathological condition in chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Shear wave elastography (SWE) with elastography point quantification (ElastPQ) feature is a recently developed method for measuring tissue elasticity.Aim of this study
To evaluate the diagnostic value of SWE with ElastPQ feature for the quantitative assessment of liver fibrosis in patients with chronic HCV infection.Patients and methods
This prospective study included 60 patients with chronic HCV infection and 50 healthy controls. All participants underwent imaging with ElastPQ technique for evaluation of the liver stiffness (LS). All patients underwent ultrasound guided liver biopsy. The METAVIR scores of fibrosis were illustrated.Results
The study participants included 50 controls (mean LS 3.12 ± 0.40 kPa), 5 patients with F0 score (mean LS 3.77 ± 1.44 kPa); 10 patients with F1 score (mean LS 7.50 ± 0.68 kPa), 23 patients with F2 score (mean LS 8.45 ± 0.62 kPa), 17 patients with F3 score (mean LS 9.64 ± 1.20 kPa) and 5 patients with F4 score (mean LS 12.61 ± 1.41 kPa). There was a highly significant correlation between the METAVIR scores of liver fibrosis and LS measurements assessed by ElastPQ SWE (p > 0.0001).Conclusion
The ElastPQ SWE technique appears as a reliable non-invasive tool that can provide an optimal way to monitor liver tissue stiffness in patients with chronic HCV infection with high accuracy (97.6%) in recognition of the earlier fibrosis stage (F2). 相似文献19.

Purpose
To identify predictive factors for platelets normalization and major complications associated with partial splenic embolization (PSE) in patients with chronic liver disease and hypersplenism.Methods and materials
A prospective study included 30 patients were subjected to pre-embolization abdominal US and laboratory testing (WBC, Hemoglobin, Platelet Count, T. Bilirubin, AST, ALT, S. Albumin). PSE were done by super-selective catheterization of splenic artery and embolization by Polyvinyl alcohol with targeted therapeutic splenic infarction rate (>30% to <70–80%). CECT was performed before and 2 weeks after to assess complications (post embolization syndrome, ascites, peritonitis,pleural effusion, and splenic abscess) and infarction size. CBC, liver function tests was done after 2 weeks, 6 months. Platelet count done on the next day after the embolization.Results
Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the infarction rate could be used as a predictor for platelets normalization (p value = 0.005, OR = 1.493). ROC curve showed that infarction rate above 76% had 100% specificity for platelets normalization after 6 months; infarction rate above 67% had 92.3% specificity. S. Albumin (2.7–3.2 mg/L), Child Score >8 remained significant predictors for major complication (p = 0.035).Conclusion
Platelet count normalization could be achieved by increasing infraction rate to 67–76%. Child Score and serum albumin are the predictive factor for complications. 相似文献20.
