No association between MRI changes in the lumbar spine and intensity of pain, quality of life, depressive and anxiety symptoms in patients with low back pain.

Introduction: The association between changes in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and clinical symptoms in patients with low back pain (LBP) is unclear.

Aim: To evaluate correlations between combined MRI findings of the lumbar spine (LS) and pain intensity, depressive and anxiety symptoms and quality of life in patients with LBP.

Material And Methods: 200 subjects (93 men and 107 women; mean age 51.

[Sexual quality of life in patients with low back pain and the radiological changes evaluated in magnetic resonance].

Objective: Introduction: Literature data concerning the association between the back pain syndrome and the quality of sexual life are rare, especially in the Polish literature. There are also no reports on the association between magnetic resonance (MRI) results and sexual satisfaction in patients with low back pain (L-S). The aim: To assess the association between the severity of degenerative-discopathic changes in the MRI of L-S spine and the quality of sexual life in patients with low back pain.

[Patient with spine pain and magnetic resonance imaging result].

Degenerative spine disease is a serious social problem. In most cases, it causes pain and neurological symptoms. Most patients are therefore referred for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

The Bony Bankart Lesion: How to Measure the Glenoid Bone Loss.

An osseous Bankart lesion is commonly seen in patients with an anterior shoulder dislocation. It is defined as a detachment of the anteroinferior labrum associated with a glenoid rim fracture. Radiological studies are crucial not only for detecting glenoid bone defects but also for measuring the amount of bone loss.

Internal snapping hip syndrome in dynamic ultrasonography.

Snapping hip syndrome is an audible or palpable snap in a hip joint during movement which may be accompanied by pain or locking. It is typically seen in young athletes performing activities requiring repeated extreme movements of the hip. It may also follow a physical trauma, intramuscular injections or surgeries.

Right Aortic Arch with Aplasia of the Left Brachiocephalic Trunk Presented as Systolic Blood Pressure Difference Between Upper Extremities.

Background: The right aortic arch with mirror-image of branching arteries without coexisting congenital heart disease is a very rare anomaly.

Case Report: We report a case of the right-sided aortic arch with aplasia of the left brachiocephalic trunk in a 64-year-old women, presenting difference in systolic blood pressure between upper extremities. The history of the patient and angio-CT findings were described and visualized with images.

Uterine artery embolisation and magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound treatment of uterine fibroids.

Uterine fibroids are the most common benign female tumours during reproductive age. The traditional treatment for this condition is typically hysterectomy. However, there are new technologies on the rise, such as Uterine Artery Embolisation and Magnetic Resonance-guided Focused Ultrasound which are directed towards a minimally invasive or even noninvasive treatment of uterine fibroids.
