Abstract Background The intraosseous ganglia is a benign cyst, rarely locate in the olecranon process. As intraosseous ganglia can mimic malignant bone tumor, computed tomography (CT) is important for diagnosis even when magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) suggests malignant bone tumor, such as chondrosarcoma. Case presentation In this paper, we report a 42-year-old woman with intraosseous ganglia in the olecranon process of the ulna. She complained pain in right elbow for 3 weeks. MRI revealed an intraosseous mass which initially diagnosed as chondrosarcoma. However, followed computed tomography (CT) demonstrated scattered intralesional gas and no underlying mineralization, and we can exclude chondrosarcoma from diagnosis. Conclusions The intraosseous ganglia can mimic bone tumor in MRI; therefore, CT is essential for accurate characterization of bone tumor. Even if MR imaging strongly suggests chondrosarcoma of the bone, CT should be performed as additional study.

Intrathoracic endometriosis is classified into pleurodiaphragmatic endometriosis and bronchopulmonary endometriosis. Bronchopulmonary endometriosis is rare. Computed tomography (CT) findings of bronchopulmonary endometriosis are lung nodules, with or without cavities, or surrounding ground-glass opacities. Features vary with menstrual status. Recently, the usefulness of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was reported for diagnosis of intrathoracic endometriosis, but most published reports were about pleurodiaphragmatic endometriosis. We present CT and MRI findings of bronchopulmonary endometriosis in the left lung that showed a gradually enlarging nodule with enhancing area.

This work aimed to analyze the diagnostic value of dynamic scanning of multislice spiral computed tomography (MSCT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for benign and malignant bone tumor and nursing intervention. 108 patients with bone tumor were selected as the research objects, all of which underwent MSCT and MRI scans. The accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of MSCT, MRI, and MSCT + MRI for identifying benign and malignant bone tumors and nursing care were calculated, as well as the diagnostic accuracy of MSCT, MRI, and MSCT + MRI for different bone tumor pathological types. The results showed that the accuracy of MSCT + MRI (97.56%) in distinguishing benign and malignant bone lesions was remarkably higher relative to that of MSCT (85.91%) and MRI (89.85%) ( P < 0.05 ). The sensitivity and specificity of MSCT + MRI (94.85%; 90.52%) in distinguishing benign and malignant bone lesions were obviously greater in contrast to those of MSCT (83.66%; 79.05%) and MRI (86.02%; 81.17%) ( P < 0.05 ). The malignant misdiagnosis rate and malignant missing report rate of MSCT + MRI in distinguishing benign and malignant bone lesions were inferior to those of MSCT and MRI notably ( P < 0.05 ). The accuracy of MSCT + MRI in distinguishing osteosarcoma, giant-cell tumor of bone (GCT), bone cyst, and osteofibrous dysplasia (OFD) was evidently higher versus that of MSCT and MRI ( P < 0.05 ). The accuracy of MSCT + MRI in distinguishing osteofibroma and ganglioneuroma was greatly higher than that of MSCT and MRI ( P < 0.05 ). The accuracy of MSCT + MRI in distinguishing osteofibroma and ganglioneuroma was 68.64% and 71.63%, respectively. In short, in contrast to the single MSCT and MRI examination, MSCT combined with MRI detection can effectively improve the accuracy of judgment for benign and malignant bone tumor lesions and nursing care and had higher sensitivity and specificity. MSCT combined with MRI had better performance in identifying osteosarcoma, GCT, bone cyst, and OFD but poor performance in osteofibroma and ganglioneuroma.

Abstract Background Management of postoperative chylothorax usually consists of nutritional regimens, pharmacological therapies such as octreotide, and surgical therapies such as ligation of thoracic duct, but a clear consensus is yet to be reached. Further, the variation of the thoracic duct makes chylothorax difficult to treat. This report describes a rare case of chylothorax with an aberrant thoracic duct that was successfully treated using focal pleurodesis through interventional radiology (IVR). Case presentation The patient was a 52-year-old man with chylothorax after a thoracoscopic oesophagectomy for oesophageal cancer. With conventional therapy, such as thoracostomy tube, octreotide or fibrogammin, a decrease in the amount of chyle was not achieved. Therefore, we performed lymphangiography and pleurodesis through IVR. The patient appeared to have an aberrant thoracic duct, as revealed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); however, after focal pleurodesis, the leak of chyle was diminished, and the patient was discharged 66 days after admission. Conclusions Chylothorax remains a difficult complication. Focal pleurodesis through IVR can be one of the options to treat chylothorax.

Abstract Background Pancreatic cystic lesions are increasingly identified in persons undergoing abdominal imaging. Serous cystic neoplasms (SCNs) have a very low risk of malignant transformation. Resection of SCNs is not recommended in the absence of related symptoms. The accuracy of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to identify SCNs is not known and may impact clinical care. Aims To evaluate the accuracy of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the diagnosis of SCN. To see how this can impact the decision to resect suspected SCNs. Methods Retrospective cohort study of patients from the University Health Network with suspected SCNs from 2017–2020 who underwent either a CT or MRI of the abdomen. Reports noting pancreatic cystic lesions were identified and reviewed. Only cases with suspected SCNs were included. Clinical (age, sex, symptoms, treatment) and radiographic (type of imaging, reported cyst characteristics) data was collected. Pathology was reviewed for all cases where the cysts was biopsied or resected during follow-up. The gold standard for the diagnosis for SCN was pathology of resected specimen or EUS-guided biopsy cytopathology showing no evidence of a mucinous lesion, CEA level below 10ug per L and amylase level below 50 U/L. Results 163 patients were included in the study. 99 (61%) were female and 98 (60%) underwent CT scan. EUS-guided biopsy was performed in 24 (15%) of patients and 8 (5%) had surgical resection. Multidisciplinary review was performed in 6 of the 8 cases that went to surgery. Of the resected specimens, 5 (63%) were SCN, 1 was a mucinous cystic lesion, 1 was a neuroendocrine tumor and 1 was a carcinoma. Two patients underwent EUS evaluation prior to surgical resection. In one case SCN was resected when EUS reported an undetermined cyst type. Reasons for surgical resection were: the diagnosis of serous cyst was not definitive (n=5), symptoms (n=2), and high-risk mucinous cystic neoplasm identified on EUS (n=1). Of 30 patients with pathology available, 15 (50%) were confirmed to have a SCN. CT and MRI had a sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of 93%, 25%, 52% and 80%, respectively. Conclusions Surgical resection for SCN lesions is driven by diagnostic uncertainty after cross-sectional imaging. Multidisciplinary review and EUS evaluation may improve diagnostic accuracy and should be considered prior to surgical resection of possible SCN lesions. Funding Agencies None

Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are enabling more precise diagnosis and treatment planning in patients with diseases of the larynx. The aim of this article is to describe the role of these methods in assessment of the laringeal diseases and key local anatomic characteristics important for spread of the disease. CT and MRI have a valuable contribution to the staging of the tumors due to the possibility to show the relationship to the ventricular complex, involvement of the subumucosal spaces, defining craniocaudal and anterposterior extension, laringeal cartilage invasion, as well as regional lymph node metastases.

This review focuses on the trends in contrast media (CM) research published in Acta Radiologica during the last 100 years, since the first edition in 1921. The main topics covered are the developments of iodine- and gadolinium-based CM. Other topics include manganese-based CM for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and barium for the investigation of the alimentary tract. From a historic point of view, special CM for use in cholegraphy and myelography are addressed in the review. Today, these imaging procedures are obsolete due to the development of computed tomography, MRI, and ultrasound. The historical use of radioactive thorium-based CM for angiography is also addressed. Furthermore, publications on adverse reactions to CM are reviewed.
