Hysterosalpingography using Magnetic Resonance Imaging for infertility patients.

Objective: Some studies have shown that it is possible to evaluate tubal permeability through MRI. Our aim is to perform a prospective study and to perform a comprehensive review in the literature regarding HSG-MRI.

Methods: We carried out a PUBMED search using the following keywords: hysterosalpingogram, hysterosalpingography, magnetic resonance imaging and MRI.

Prostate Benign Diseases.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been increasingly used in the detection, localization, and staging of prostate cancer. Because of its excellent soft tissue contrast and multiplane imaging, it can be also very useful in the evaluation of benign prostate diseases. Prostatic benign disorders have a high prevalence, vastly represented by benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostatitis.

Impact of genetic mutations and nutritional status on the survival of patients with colorectal cancer.

Background: The prognosis of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients can be influenced by genetic mutations and nutritional status. The relationship between these variables is unclear. The objective of the study was to verify the variables involved in the nutritional status and genetic mutations, which correlate with survival of CRC patients.
