Multimodal imaging of mixed epithelial and stromal tumor of the kidney: Case series.
Medicine (Baltimore)
November 2024
Background: To investigate the clinical features, imaging manifestations, and pathological characteristics of mixed epithelial stromal tumor of the kidney (MESTK) to improve the understanding of MESTK and the accuracy of preoperative imaging diagnosis.
Methods: The clinical, imaging, and pathological data of 3 patients with MESTK confirmed by postoperative pathology were retrospectively analyzed.
Results: Three patients with MESTK were middle-aged women with no obvious clinical symptoms.
Objective: To investigate the application value of amide proton transfer (APT) magnetic resonance imaging in evaluating brain damage in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Materials And Methods: 49 OSA patients and 25 healthy individuals matched for age and sex were included as case and control groups. All study participants underwent conventional 3D T1WI and APT imaging of the head.
Article Synopsis
- Cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) is a serious chronic spinal condition with limited recovery options, making it crucial to find effective prognostic tools, like dynamic diffusion tensor imaging (DTI).
- The study assessed 105 CSM patients who underwent surgery, utilizing DTI and T2-weighted imaging to evaluate their conditions preoperatively and predict surgical outcomes based on recovery rates.
- Results indicated that 41.9% had good recovery post-surgery, with significant factors influencing recovery identified as diabetes, the number of compression segments, and specific imaging metrics from DTI across different neck positions.
Purpose: To investigate the clinical application of zonally magnified oblique multislice (ZOOM) imaging technology in patients with degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) and compare it with T2WI imaging.
Methods: A total of 111 patients diagnosed with DCM were recruited. According to mJOA, patients with DCM were divided into ND + group with neurological dysfunction and ND- group without neurological dysfunction.
Purpose: To investigate the clinical application value of the non-shared incentive diffusion imaging technique (ZOOM-DWI) diagnoses of cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM).
Methods: 49 CSM patients who presented from January 2022 to December 2022 were selected as the patient group, and 50 healthy volunteers are recruited as the control group. All subjects underwent conventional MRI and ZOOM-DWI of the cervical spine and neurologic mJOA scores in patients with CSM.
