Objective: To evaluate diagnostic capability of brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in detection of inherited neurometabolic disorders.
Methods: This retrospective observational study was performed in Radiology Department at our Hospital in Dhahran, from January 2013 to January 2020. We evaluated brain MRIs of children (under 5) who were referred to pediatric neurology for clinical suspicion of neuro-developmental delay and metabolic disease.
Article Synopsis
- * A 17-year-old male exhibited symptoms including body aches and swelling on the right side of his head, along with rapid periorbital puffiness, which scans showed to be multiple subgaleal haematomas and edema.
- * Both conditions are uncommon in sickle cell disease but can be managed conservatively rather than through surgery, as demonstrated in the case of this patient.
Objective: To evaluate the use of duplex carotid artery screening in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG).
Methods: This descriptive, observational study was conducted in Radiology Department at King Fahad Military Medical Complex, Dhahran, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia from April 2015-2018. All Saudi patients (n=178) who underwent duplex carotid sonography prior to CABG were retrospectively reviewed for essential morphologic and hemodynamic information to estimate severity of extra-cranial internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis.
