Correction to: Postmortem computed tomographic features in the diagnosis of drowning: a comparison of fresh water and salt water drowning cases.

Whereas in FWDCs, a significantly larger volume and lower density of fluid in the paranasal sinuses (P = 0.0195 and P = 0.0104, respectively), lower density of fluid in the central airways (P = 0.

Postmortem computed tomographic features in the diagnosis of drowning: a comparison of fresh water and salt water drowning cases.

Purpose: To investigate the effectiveness of postmortem computed tomography in the diagnosis of drowning, focusing on the comparison of fresh water and salt water cases using three-dimensionally (3D) reconstructed data.

Materials And Methods: We examined features of drowning in 25 fresh water drowning cases (FWDCs; 13 men, 12 women; mean age 73.1 years; range 43-95 years), and compared these with 12 salt water drowning cases (SWDCs; 5 men, 7 women; mean age 66.

Analysis of computed tomography density of liver before and after amiodarone administration.

Purpose: To evaluate CT density of liver changes between before and after amiodarone administration.

Materials And Methods: Twenty-five patients underwent non-enhanced CT including the liver before and after amiodarone administration. We set regions of interest (ROIs) at liver S8, spleen, paraspinal muscle, and calculated average CT density in these ROIs, then compared CT density between liver and other organs.
