A giant isolated right coronary aneurism.

A previously healthy 32-year-old female hailing from Mexico presented to the emergency department with rectorrhagia. Caseating granulomas were detected on histopathological analysis from cecum ulcerative lesions. A purified protein derivative skin test resulted positive.

Magnetic resonance imaging of pure ovarian dysgerminoma: a series of eight cases.

Background: Imaging findings have a prominent role in early and correct identification of ovarian dysgerminoma, the most common ovarian malignant germ cell tumor (OMGCT). Despite Computed Tomography (CT) is widely used, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has proved to be superior in adnexal masses characterization. Limited data and small series are available concerning MRI aspects of dysgerminoma.

Electrocardiogram and Imaging: An Integrated Approach to Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathies.

Cardiovascular imaging has radically changed the management of patients with arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathies. This article focuses on the role of echocardiography and MRI in the diagnosis of these structural diseases. Cardiomyopathies with hypertrophic pattern (hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, restrictive cardiomyopathies, amyloidosis, Anderson-Fabry disease, and sarcoidosis), cardiomyopathies with dilated pattern, inflammatory cardiac diseases, and right ventricular arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy are analyzed.

CT angio for the evaluation of graft patency.

Invasive coronary angiography (ICA) is the traditional method for the follow-up of graft patency in coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) patients. Nevertheless, the advent of multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) opened new perspectives for using a noninvasive, equally reliable method to study CABG patients. This review article will analyze the current feasibility of modern multi-slice MDCT, as well as its future perspectives.
