The Effectiveness of Prostate Imaging and Reporting and Data System Version 2 in the Diagnosis of Prostate Cancer with Screening Parameters Correlation.

Purpose: Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the second most common reason for cancer-related mortality in men. The purpose of cancer screening is to detect the disease at an early stage to help effective treatment. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of MRI and PI-RADS in the diagnosis of prostate cancer and examine the relation between screening parameters with prostate cancer.

Pedobarographic Measurements of Rheumatoid Feet Compared with Clinical Parameters.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between plantar pressure pedobarographic measurements and disease activity, radiological abnormalities, and foot indexes in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Methods: Sociodemographics, foot symptoms, anatomical distribution, pain intensity and duration, and podiatry services access data were collected. Disease activity scale of 28 joints (DAS28) was used for the disease activity, and Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) was used for the functional status.

Tumefactive fibroinflammatory lesion: A rare cause of chest pain.

Tumefactive fibroinflammatory lesion (TFIL) is a rare idiopathic disease. These lesions clinically mimic malignant neoplasms, but they are characterized by benign histology while they cause local destruction. Its etiology is unknown, but it is thought to be an exaggerated immune response resulting from chronic infections.

Two-Dimensional Shear Wave Elastography in the Assessment of Salivary Gland Involvement in Primary Sjögren's Syndrome.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic performance of two-dimensional (2D) shear wave elastography (SWE) in the assessment of salivary gland involvement in primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS).

Methods: Fifty-three patients with pSS and 30 healthy volunteers were included. The echogenicity of all submandibular and parotid glands was evaluated with B-mode ultrasound, and their elasticity was assessed with 2D SWE.

Should We Perform Transthoracic Trucut Lung Biopsies of Pleural-Based Lung Masses Under Ultrasound Guidance or Computed Tomography Guidance?

We aimed to emphasize which method should be prioritized by comparing the ultrasound and computed tomography (CT) guidance for percutaneous transthoracic biopsy of pleural-based lung lesions in terms of comorbidity, diagnostic success, time, and costs.Approximately 700 biopsy procedures performed between 2014 and 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. The files of these patients and picture archiving and communication system were scanned.

Left ventricular hydatid cyst mimicking acute coronary syndrome.

Hydatid disease is caused by the larvae of . Domestic dogs and cats are the primary carriers of echinococcal organisms. In some particular regions of the world, this parasitic infection is still endemic.

A case of caudal regression syndrome: walking or sitting?

Caudal regression syndrome (CRS) is a congenital disorder which is seen vertebral anomalies in varying degrees from lower thoracic spineto the level of the coccyx. We present a case of CRS which is not intended operation for orthopedic deformities considering functionality. 2, 5 year-old girl referred to our clinic with complaints about walking disability, knee and foot deformities.
