Purpose: To determine whether staging pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can distinguish malignant mixed Müllerian tumor (MMMT) from EC.
Methods: Thirty-seven treatment-naïve patients with histologically proven uterine MMMT and 42 treatment-naïve patients with EC, treated at our institution, were included in our retrospective study. Staging pelvic MRI scans were reviewed for tumor size, prolapse through cervical os, and other features.
Article Synopsis
- Heart failure is becoming more common, leading to increased use of left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) for patients, either as a temporary solution before a transplant or as a permanent treatment option.
- Continuous-flow LVADs are more frequently used, but they come with risks such as bleeding, blood clots, and infections.
- CT imaging is valuable for identifying complications related to LVADs and ensuring accurate diagnosis, allowing radiologists to better evaluate heart failure patients.
