In-situ start and end of growing season dates of major European crop types from France and Bulgaria at a field level.

Crop phenology data offer crucial information for crop yield estimation, agricultural management, and assessment of agroecosystems. Such information becomes more important in the context of increasing year-to-year climatic variability. The dataset provides in-situ crop phenology data (first leaves emergence and harvest date) of major European crops (wheat, corn, sunflower, rapeseed) from seventeen field study sites in Bulgaria and two in France.

RSNA-STR-ACR Consensus Statement for COVID-19 CT Patterns: Interreader Agreement in 240 Consecutive Patients and Association With RT-PCR Status.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to study interreader agreement of the RSNA-STR-ACR (Radiological Society of North America/Society of Thoracic Radiology/American College of Radiology) consensus statement on reporting chest computed tomography (CT) findings related to COVID-19 on a sample of consecutive patients confirmed with reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2.

Materials And Methods: This institutional review board-approved retrospective study included 240 cases with a mean age of 47.6 ± 15.

RSNA Committee on International Radiology Education: 25 Years of Global Education Outreach.

The Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) Committee on International Radiology Education (CIRE) has worked for the past 25 years to create academic programs oriented to the needs of international radiologists. The CIRE develops organized and structured approaches to help build one's capabilities and increase one's capacity for professional growth, which then facilitates better patient care. The authors describe the four programs that CIRE is responsible for and introduces its newest initiative, Global Learning Centers, which is planned to start in 2021.

Prospective validation of the ultrasound based TIRADS (Thyroid Imaging Reporting And Data System) classification: results in surgically resected thyroid nodules.

Objective: To assess performance of TIRADS classification on a prospective surgical cohort, demonstrating its clinical usefulness.

Methods: Between June 2009 and October 2012, patients assessed with pre-operative ultrasound (US) were included in this IRB-approved study. Nodules were categorised according to our previously described TIRADS classification.

Acute prevertebral calcific tendinitis: a source of non-surgical acute cervical pain.

Background: Prevertebral calcific tendinitis results from calcium hydroxyapatite crystal deposits in the longus colli muscles, which induce symptoms similar to some surgically-treated conditions, such as retropharyngeal abscesses. Imaging techniques are critical for accurate diagnosis.

Purpose: To describe the computed tomography (CT) findings associated with prevertebral calcific tendinitis.

[Access to emergency contraception: old barriers and new questions].

Purpose: to compare two strategies of access to emergency contraception: only information and information with previous delivery of this contraceptive method, and its relationship with the use of this method and the regular use of contraceptives.

Methods: from August 2004 to January 2005, 18 to 49-year-old volunteers, attended at reproductive health clinics from six Brazilian towns were recruited. The subjects were randomly distributed in a group getting information about emergency contraception (Control Group), or in a group getting information about this method and previous delivery of the contraceptive (Medicated Group).

RT-PCR for confirmation of echovirus 30 isolated in Belém, Brazil.

Echovirus (Echo) 30 or human enterovirus B is the most frequent enterovirus associated with meningitis cases. Epidemics and outbreaks of this disease caused by Echo 30 have occurred in several countries. In Brazil, Echo 30 has been isolated from sporadic cases and outbreaks that occurred mainly in the south and southeast regions.
