Establishing an acquisition and processing protocol for resting state networks with a 1.5 T scanner: A case series in a middle-income country.

Objective: The aim of this study was to characterize the capability of detection of the resting state networks (RSNs) with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in healthy subjects using a 1.5T scanner in a middle-income country.

Materials And Methods: Ten subjects underwent a complete blood-oxygen-level dependent imaging (BOLD) acquisition on a 1.

Primary pleural liposarcoma, pleomorphic variant.

Primary pleural liposarcoma (PPL) is a rare tumor derived from primitive mesenchymal tissue. We report a case of a 49-year-old female patient complaining of thoracic pain and dyspnea for 3 months. The chest X-ray showed a left basal opacity of lobulated contours and the thoracic computer tomography (CT) scan revealed a left pleural collection/mass, of 18 HU density and passive pulmonary atelectasis.
