Radiologically and clinically diagnosed acute pulmonary oedema in critically ill patients: prevalence, patient characteristics, treatments and outcomes.

Acute pulmonary oedema is a life-threatening syndrome diagnosed based on radiological and clinical findings. However, to our knowledge, no studies have investigated this syndrome in critically ill patients. To describe the prevalence of radiologically and clinically diagnosed pulmonary oedema (RCDPO) in critically ill patients, characteristics of diagnosed patients, and treatments and outcomes in this patient population.

Diagnostic Utility of MRI Features of Placental Adhesion Disorder for Abnormal Placentation and Massive Postpartum Hemorrhage.

The study's aim was to assess MRI, in cases in which MRI was deemed clinically necessary, to determine its diagnostic accuracy for placental adhesion disorder (PAD) and prognostic accuracy for massive postpartum hemorrhage (PPH). Additionally, we investigated the diagnostic utility of MRI in the antenatal workup of PAD as an adjunct to clinical assessment and ultrasound. We retrospectively identified patients who underwent antenatal MRI for suspicion of PAD.

Accuracy of non-contrast quiescent-interval single-shot and quiescent-interval single-shot arterial spin-labelled magnetic resonance angiography in assessment of peripheral arterial disease in a diabetic population.

Introduction: Diabetic patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) are challenging to assess. Non-contrast magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) offers a safe alternative in patients with renal impairment. The study objective is to evaluate accuracy of lower limb quiescent-interval single-shot (QISS) MRA and pedal QISS-arterial spin-labelled (ASL) MRA for detection of significant stenosis in diabetic patients with PAD.

Incidental hepatic steatosis on unenhanced computed tomography performed for suspected renal colic: Gaps in reporting and documentation.

Introduction: Hepatic steatosis is a common incidental finding on computed tomography (CT) in patients presenting to the emergency department (ED). The aims of our study were to assess the prevalence of hepatic steatosis in ED patients with suspected renal colic and to assess documentation in radiology reports and medical charts correlated with alanine transaminase (ALT) levels.

Methods: Over 18 months from January 2016 to June 2017, all unenhanced CTs performed for suspected renal colic were reviewed.
