Objectives: To assess frequency of gallbladder polyposis and carcinoma in metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD).
Methods: We evaluated 34 patients with MLD (average age 16.7 years, age range 2-39 years) screened for gallbladder abnormalities by ultrasound.
Purpose: To evaluate the additional diagnostic value of fetal Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in fetuses with suspected brain abnormalities identified with advanced neurosonography (NS).
Methods: A systematic literature search was performed for studies reporting on a comparison between diagnosis with NS and MRI, in fetuses suspected for brain abnormalities. Abnormalities detected on NS were compared with those detected on MRI as well as with postnatal imaging findings to assess the added value of fetal MRI.
Background: The purpose of this review is to illustrate the imaging findings of childhood osteomyelitis. The diagnosis of childhood osteomyelitis can be challenging. Clinical presentation and laboratory results can differ and are relatively unreliable.

- The study tested a computer program to help doctors find blood clots in the lungs called pulmonary embolisms (PE) using CT scans.
- Six doctors with different levels of experience looked at 209 CT scans, first without the computer help and then with it, to see if it changed their ability to find PE.
- The computer program helped doctors find more cases of PE, but it took them a little longer to read the scans, increasing the time by about 22 seconds.
