Looking for appropriateness in follow-up CT of oncologic patients: Results from a cross-sectional study.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to assess the inappropriateness rate of oncological follow-up CT examinations.

Methods: Out of 7.000 oncology patients referred for follow-up CT examinations between March and October 2022, a random sample of 10 % was included.

Diagnostic and Therapeutic Radiology of the GI Tract, Liver, and Pancreas in Patients with COVID.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pulmonary involvement has been extensively reported in the literature. Current data highlight how COVID-19 is a systemic disease, affecting many other organs, including the gastrointestinal, hepatobiliary, and pancreatic organs. Recently, these organs have been investigated using imaging modalities of ultrasound and particularly computed tomography.

Type 2 diabetes albuminuric and non-albuminuric phenotypes have different morphological and functional ultrasound features of diabetic kidney disease.

Aims: Whether different diabetic kidney disease (DKD) phenotypes recognise differences in morphological and vascular properties of the kidney is still unexplored. We evaluated the potential role of kidney ultrasonography in differentiating DKD phenotypes in subjects with type 2 diabetes.

Materials And Methods: This is a cross-sectional, single-centre study.

Chemotherapy-Induced Liver Injury in Patients with Colorectal Liver Metastases: Findings from MR Imaging.

Chemotherapy-induced liver injury has been found to be quite common in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Being aware of chemotherapy-induced hepatotoxicity is important for avoiding errors in detecting liver metastases and for defining the most appropriate clinical management strategy. MRI imaging has proven to be a useful troubleshooting tool that helps overcome false negatives in tumor response imaging after chemotherapy due to liver parenchyma changes.
