Objective: To review the spectrum of clinical and imaging features of glomus tumor involving the musculoskeletal system including the typically solitary forms as well as the rarer multifocal forms (glomuvenous malformation and glomangiomatosis).
Materials And Methods: A retrospective review of our institutional pathology database from 1996 to 2023 identified 176 patients with 218 confirmed glomus tumors. Primary imaging studies included MRI (125), radiographs (100), clinical/intraoperative photos (77), and ultrasound (36).
Objective: To determine the preferred ankle, knee, and elbow arthrography injection techniques for Society of Skeletal Radiology (SSR) members and whether more recently described techniques are gaining acceptance. We also sought to determine whether the concept of knowledge translation might explain differences between the preferred technique, year of fellowship graduation, and year the newer technique was described.
Materials And Methods: A 29-question survey was created in Qualtrics and submitted to current SSR members to determine if they perform knee, elbow, and ankle arthrography, and if so, the year of fellowship completion and preferred approaches.
This article reviews evidence for performing various imaging studies in patients with total hip prostheses. Routine follow-up is generally performed with radiography. Radiographs are also usually the initial imaging modality for patients with symptoms related to the prosthesis.

Appropriate clinical management should be directed by risk of malignancy. Herein, the ACR-sponsored Bone Reporting and Data System (Bone-RADS) Committee, consisting of academic leaders in the fields of musculoskeletal oncology imaging and orthopedic oncology, presents the novel Bone-RADS scoring system to aid in risk assignment and provide risk-aligned management suggestions.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFObjectives: To describe the technique, efficacy, and safety of CT-guided quadratus femoris injection with corticosteroid and local anesthetic for the treatment of ischiofemoral impingement in a series of cases at our institution.
Methods: Cases of CT-guided quadratus femoris injections from 2000 to 2021 were identified in the enterprise-wide electronic medical record of our institution. Patient charts and our institutional picture archiving and communication system (PACS) were searched for demographics, pain level on a 0-10 scale before and immediately following the procedure, procedure technique, and follow-up outcomes if available.
