Imaging Findings of Ovarian Vein Thrombosis.

Ovarian vein thrombosis (OVT) is an uncommon condition that occurs mainly in the peripartum period. Hyper-coagulable conditions have been reported to cause OVT outside the peripartum period. The clinical presentation is usually nonspecific pain, but it can be asymptomatic in patients with underlying malignancy.

The Role of Ultrasound Features in Predicting the Breast Cancer Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy.

Background Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) has become the standard of care for locally advanced breast cancer. This study investigates whether baseline ultrasound features can predict complete pathological response (pCR) after NACT. Methods This retrospective study was approved by the Institutional Review Board of King Abdulaziz University Hospital, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, with a waiver of informed consent.

Patients' Radiation Shielding in Interventional Radiology Settings: A Systematic Review.

As a result of the increasing risk of developing radiation-related complications, many approaches aimed at reducing this risk and enhancing the outcomes of the patient, doctor or device operator have been developed. In this systematic review, we aim to discuss previous investigations that studied patient shielding or protection within the context of selected interventional radiology procedures. We included original studies that used K and P for the assessment of the outcomes of two procedures: transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt creation (TIPS) and hepatic arterial chemoembolization (HAE).

Solitary Pineal Gland Tuberculoma Mimicking Germinoma: A Case Report.

We are reporting a case of 16-year-old boy presented with severe headache and blurred vision. MRI showed a pineal region mass that was initially thought to be a germinoma. Endoscopic biopsy revealed tuberculoma which is an exceedingly rare and unusual location for CNS tuberculoma.

Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumor of the Porta Hepatis: A Case Report.

A 43-year-old man presented with painless jaundice. Imaging revealed a porta hepatis mass compressing the common bile duct. Endoscopic biopsy was negative for malignancy.

Diagnostic Accuracy of MRI in Evaluating Response After Neoadjuvant Systemic Therapy in Operable Breast Cancer.

Background Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is an important step in the treatment of various types of breast cancer by downsizing the tumor to make it operable. Determining disease extent after NAC is essential for accurate surgical planning. MRI has been the gold standard for detecting tumors that are usually difficult to detect on ultrasound or mammography.

Multimodality Imaging of Genitourinary Tuberculosis.

Tuberculosis (TB) prevalence has increased over the past few decades, especially in the developing world. The genitourinary tract is the most common extra-pulmonary location of TB. Symptoms of genitourinary TB are often vague.
