Cross-sectional imaging techniques are becoming increasingly important for the evaluation of foot and ankle disorders. Computed tomography affords superior depiction of osseous anatomy, and is useful in the assessment of acute fractures, degenerative joint disease, and postoperative alterations. Magnetic resonance imaging is particularly well suited to soft tissue disease, including neoplasms, tendinitis, myopathy, and infection, owing to its excellent contrast discrimination capabilities.

The increasing availability of cross-sectional imaging, incredibly magnetic resonance imaging, detects ndings in the patient's scan unrelated to the reason the scan is initially acquired. These ndings refer to the so-called incidental ndings mentioned in the radiology report as "Note made of" without any good impression about their clinical signicance or further management. This type of report leads to anxiety among patients. The radiologist is the rst person to encounter these incidental ndings. Therefore, it is an essential duty of the radiologist to communicate to the clinician about the signicance and urgency/non-urgency of these ndings so that clinicians can decide timely appropriate management. Therefore, this review discusses the prevalence and spectrum of these incidental ndings and the available guidelines for their management.

Abstract In the appropriate clinical setting, certain aspects of extranodal abdominal lymphoma, as revealed by current cross-sectional imaging techniques, should be considered potentially diagnostic and can hasten the diagnosis. In addition, diagnostic imaging in the context of biopsy-proven lymphoma can accurately stage the disease for its appropriate treatment. The purpose of this article was to illustrate the various imaging aspects of extranodal lymphoma in the abdomen.

AbstractBackgroundMastoiditis is an otological emergency, and cross-sectional imaging has a role in the diagnosis of complications and surgical planning. Advances in imaging technology are becoming increasingly sophisticated and, by the same token, the ability to accurately interpret findings is essential.MethodsThis paper reviews common and rare complications of mastoiditis using case-led examples. A radiologist-derived systematic checklist is proposed, to assist the ENT surgeon with interpreting cross-sectional imaging in emergency mastoiditis cases when the opinion of a head and neck radiologist may be difficult to obtain.ResultsA 16-point checklist (the ‘mastoid 16’) was used on a case-led basis to review the radiological features of both common and rare complications of mastoiditis; this is complemented with imaging examples.ConclusionAcute mastoiditis has a range of serious complications that may be amenable to treatment, once diagnosed using appropriate imaging. The proposed checklist provides a systematic approach to identifying complications of mastoiditis.

Main Components

Patients with Crohn’s disease commonly develop ileal and less commonly colonic strictures, containing various degrees of inflammation and fibrosis. While predominantly inflammatory strictures may benefit from a medical anti-inflammatory treatment, predominantly fibrotic strictures currently require endoscopic balloon dilation or surgery. Therefore, differentiation of the main components of a stricturing lesion is key for defining the therapeutic management. The role of endoscopy to diagnose the nature of strictures is limited by the superficial inspection of the intestinal mucosa, the lack of depth of mucosal biopsies and by the risk of sampling error due to a heterogeneous distribution of inflammation and fibrosis within a stricturing lesion. These limitations may be in part overcome by cross-sectional imaging techniques such as ultrasound, CT and MRI, allowing for a full thickness evaluation of the bowel wall and associated abnormalities. This systematic literature review provides a comprehensive summary of currently used radiologic definitions of strictures. It discusses, by assessing only manuscripts with histopathology as a gold standard, the accuracy for diagnosis of the respective modalities as well as their capability to characterise strictures in terms of inflammation and fibrosis. Definitions for strictures on cross-sectional imaging are heterogeneous; however, accuracy for stricture diagnosis is very high. Although conventional cross-sectional imaging techniques have been reported to distinguish inflammation from fibrosis and grade their severity, they are not sufficiently accurate for use in routine clinical practice. Finally, we present recent consensus recommendations and highlight experimental techniques that may overcome the limitations of current technologies.
