Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic value of Non Contrast Helical Computed Tomography (NCHCT) scanning as the first choice diagnostic modality for detecting urolithiasis cases in Soetomo General Hospital Surabaya and evaluate the feasibility as alternative to Intravenous Urography (IVU). Material & Methods: Seventeen patients with clinical manifestation of suspected urolithiasis underwent NCHCT and IVU to evaluate suspected urolithiasis. Reformatted three-dimensional CT was performed in all patients. The images were correlated with findings from surgical procedure (ureteroscopy, percutaneous nephrolithotomy, and open surgery). Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and diagnostic accuracy were determined for NCHCT and IVU. Results: The diagnosis of urolithiasis was defined as unequivocal evidence of urolithiasis on either NCHCT or IVU. Sixteen of seventeen patients evaluated were diagnosed with urolithiasis. NCHCT established the diagnosis in 16 of 17 patients while IVU was positive in 11 of 17 patients. IVU was negative in 6 of the 17 cases. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of NCHCT was 100%, 100%, and 100% respectively (p = 0.05) and the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of IVU was 68%, 100% and 70% respectively (p = 0.35). There was no statistically significant difference between IVU and NCHCT using Fisher’s exact test. Conclusions: NCHCT accurately diagnosed urolithiasis in patients with suspected urolithiasis. Considering that NCHCT is more effective and efficient than IVU as diagnostic modality in determining the presence of urolithiasis, it may be considered to replace IVU as the first line diagnostic tool for urolithiasis in Soetomo General Hospital Surabaya. Keywords: Non Contrast Helical CT Scan, Intravenous Urography, Urolithiasis.

Background: Among gynecologic malignancies, ovarian cancer has the highest mortality rate per case. The most important prognostic feature of ovarian cancer is an early diagnosis. The IOTA-SR is an ultrasound exam criterion for classifying benign or malignant ovarian tumors, which could be used effectively by an inexperienced radiologist. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic value of IOTA-SR in Iranian patients with ovarian tumors. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, considering inclusion and exclusion criteria, 60 females enrolled (from 2019-1 to 2019-12). Patients were evaluated with ultrasound by an experienced radiologist. Tumors were classified, as benign or malignant according to the IOTA-SR criteria. After laparotomy, histological and ultrasond examination findings were compared. Results: According to histopathologic results, the prevalence of malignancy was 63.3% (38 malignant and 22 benign tumors). The IOTA-SR could be applied in all the participants as 21 tumors (35%) were classified as benign and 39 (65%) as malignant. Compared with histopathologic results, the IOTA-SR yielded 36 true positives, three false positives, 19 true negatives, and two false negatives. Thus, assessing ovarian mass using IOTA-SR achieved a sensitivity of 94.7%, a specificity of 86.3%, a positive predictive value of 92.3%, a negative predictive value of 90.47%, positive likelihood ratio of 6.91, negative likelihood ratio of 0.091, overall accuracy of 91.6%, and kappa coefficient of 0.819 (P<0.001). Conclusions: IOTA-SR criteria have a high diagnostic value in differentiation of the malignant and benign ovarian tumors and can be applied in daily practice.

Background: To differentiate ovarian mass as benign or malignant could change clinical approach. Finding a screening and diagnostic method for ovarian cancer is challenging due to high mortality and insidious symptoms. Risk malignancy index (RMI) has the advantage of rapid and exact triage of patients with ovarian mass.Methods: Prospective study carried for 2 years at NRI Medical College and General Hospital, Chinakakani, Mangalagiri, Andhra Pradesh, India. 79 patients with ovarian mass were investigated and risk malignancy index (RMI-3 and RMI-4) calculated. Final confirmation was done based on histopathological report. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were calculated for RMI 3 and RMI 4 taking histopathology as control and comparison was done.Results: (n=79); 50 (63.29%) cases were benign and 29 (36.70%) were malignant based on histopathology. RMI 4 is more sensitive (68.96%) than RMI 3 (62.06%), but RMI 3 is more specific (94%) than RMI 4 (92%).The positive predictive value of RMI-3 and RMI-4 were 85.71%  and 83.33% respectively. The negative predictive value for RMI-4 and RMI-3 were 83.63% and 81.03% respectively.Conclusions: With increasing age, chance of malignancy increases. RMI 4 was more sensitive than RMI-3, however less specific than RMI 3 in differentiating benign and malignant tumors. The positive predictive value is slightly more for RMI 3, than RMI 4. Negative predictive value is slightly more for RMI 4, than RMI 3.

Abstract Aims Nipple discharge is a presentation commonly seen at breast clinics. It is conventionally evaluated with physical examination and sonography( or mammography). The aim of this study is to investigate the diagnostic value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as an additional imaging tool in the evaluation of potential malignancy in patients presented with nipple discharge. Methods A retrospective evaluation of 85 patients with nipple discharge who underwent breast ultrasound (USS) and MRI between 04/06/2008 and 25/10/2019 was conducted. Clinical notes, radiographic reports and biopsy results were reviewed. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of USS and MRI were calculated. Results Out of the 85 patients (all female; mean age 45.33 +/- 12.93 years old) with nipple discharge, 11 were found to have biopsy-proven malignancy (invasive ductal carcinoma/ ductal carcinoma in situ; 12.94% risk). USS failed to identify seven malignancies (27.27% sensitivity) while MRI missed three malignancies (72.72% sensitivity). USS falsely identified four malignancies from 74 patients with no malignancy (94.59% specificity) while MRI only falsely identified one case (98.65% specificity). For patients with negative USS results (U1/U2/U3) or negative MRI results (BI-RADS category 1,2 or 3), the negative predictive values of USS is 89.74% while that of MRI is 96.05%. The positive predictive values of USS and MRI are 42.86% and 88.88% respectively. Conclusion Compared to USS, MRI has a higher sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and predictive value. It will be a valuable addition to the standard nipple discharge evaluation workup to help rule out malignancy.

Objective: To compare the diagnostic value of shear wave elastography (SWE) and real-time elastography (RTE) in the diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules. Methods: A total of 34 patients who ever received thyroidectomy in our hospital from January 2016 to January 2018 were identified. Meanwhile, all the patients received SWE and RTE before surgery, and all the diagnoses were confirmed by pathological examinations. With respect to SWE technique, the Subject Operating Characteristics (ROC) curves were drawn, in order to obtain the optimal threshold and then make differential diagnoses of benign and malignant thyroid nodules. In terms of RTE, the Rago 5 scoring method was utilized to make differential diagnoses of benign and malignant thyroid nodules. Besides, the pathological examinations after surgery could be considered as the golden standard. At last, the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of SWE and RTE were calculated, respectively. Results: A total of 51 thyroid nodules were identified, and 41 nodules were benign, 10 nodules were malignant. On the basis of ROC curves, with respect to SWE, the best threshold for differential diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules is 38.3 kPa. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of SWE were 72.7% (8/11), 85% (34/40), 82.4% (42/51), 68.4% (13/19), and 87.5% (35/40), respectively. And the diagnostic indicators of RTE were 81.8% (9/11), 87.5% (35/40), 84.3% (43/51), 73.7% (14/19), and 90.0% (36/40). The sensitivity of quasi-static elastography in differential diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules with diameter ≤1 cm was 87.5% (7/8), and the sensitivity of SWE was 50.0% (5/10). In addition, the accuracy of SWE in differential diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules with diameter ≥3 cm was 100% (6/6), and the accuracy of RTE for this kind of thyroid nodules was 66.7% (4/6). Conclusion: Both SWE and RTE technology have good application value in differential diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules. But, SWE is preferable when making diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules with diameter ≥3 cm, and RTE was superior in detecting benign and malignant thyroid nodules with diameter ≤1 cm.
