A real-world comparison of the diagnostic performances of six different TI-RADS guidelines, including ACR-/Kwak-/K-/EU-/ATA-/C-TIRADS.

Purpose: To compare the diagnostic performance of six different currently available guidelines including the American College of Radiology Thyroid Imaging and Reporting Data System (ACR-TIRADS), Kwak-TIRADS, Korean TIRADS (K-TIRADS), European TIRADS (EU-TIRADS), American Thyroid Association (ATA) and Chinese TIRADS (C-TIRADS), in differentiating malignant from benign thyroid nodules (TN).

Materials And Methods: In this single-center study, between January-2007 and September-2023, ultrasound (US) images of TNs that were pathologically proven either by surgery or by fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB), were retrospectively evaluated and categorized according to six different currently available guidelines. Area under curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values (PPV and NPV, respectively) and miss rates for malignancy (MRM) were calculated for each guideline.

The Value of Ultrasonography in Detecting Gastric Haemorrhage.

Unlabelled: Gastric intramural haematoma is a very infrequent condition. It can occur due to clotted gastric haemorrhage as a result of peptic ulcer disease, or following trauma, oral anticoagulant therapy and bleeding disorders. It is usually suspected with the symptoms of gastrointestinal haemorrhage such as haematemesis, melena and haematochezia, and detected by endoscopy.

Imaging Findings in Papillary Breast Lesions: An Analysis of Ductal Findings on Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Ultrasound.

Purpose: This study aims to analyze the imaging features of dilated ducts or ductal extension/relation of masses detected by ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and to correlate the results obtained through these 2 different imaging methods. Furthermore, the ability of the ductal relation pattern in differentiating benign and malignant lesions was explored.

Methods And Materials: Magnetic resonance imaging and US findings of 56 patients who had a pathologic diagnosis of papillary lesion were examined.

Efficiency of Imaging Modalities in Male Breast Disease: Can Ultrasound Give Additional Information for Assessment of Gynecomastia Evolution?

Objective: The purpose of this study is to present mammography and ultrasound findings of male breast lesions and to investigate the ability of diagnostic modalities in estimating the evolution of gynecomastia.

Materials And Methods: Sixty-nine male patients who admitted to Taksim and Bakirkoy Education and Research Hospitals and underwent mammography (MG) and ultrasonography (US) imaging were retrospectively evaluated. Duration of symptoms and mammographic types of gynecomastia according to Appelbaum's classifications were evaluated, besides the sonographic findings in mammographic types of gynecomastia.

Subcutaneous Oleomas Following Sunflower Oil Injection: A Novel Case and Review of Literature.

Liquid foreign material injection has been used as an early medical intervention since the end of nineteenth century for the augmentation of body shape. Nowadays, these types of procedures have been abandoned by health professionals due to late onset of serious complications. However, it is still misused by some subcultures such as bodybuilders, passive homosexuals, transsexuals, and patients with mental illness.

Diagnosis of adenoid cystic carcinoma of the breast using fine-needle aspiration cytology: A case report and review of the literature.

Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) of the breast is a rare variant of breast malignancy and is associated with an excellent prognosis. ACC accounts for 0.1% of all breast carcinomas.

Effectiveness of additional diagnostic parameters in magnetic resonance mammography: a comparative study with the BI-RADS classification and scoring system.

Objective: This study aims to evaluate the strength of magnetic resonance (MR) lesion descriptors for malignancy and to determine the effectiveness of a scoring system that combines BI-RADS parameters with additional criteria.

Materials And Methods: Three hundred thirty-nine histopathologically proven lesions that had undergone MR imaging were analyzed retrospectively. Based on the Fischer scoring system, an optimal cutoff value was calculated for combined parameters.

Comparison of ductoscopy, galactography, and imaging modalities for the evaluation of intraductal lesions: a critical review.

Background: Today, in cases of nipple discharge of unclear origin, the abundance of diagnostic procedures - a, diagnostic dilemma' - becomes apparent, because unequivocal indications and a current, standardized examination sequence are presently not available. The diagnostic workup of patients with nipple discharge usually includes the clinical history, physical examination, mammography, ultrasonography, galactography, and nipple discharge cytology, but not ductoscopy.

Methods: In this review we analyze and discuss the possible role of ductoscopy in evaluating intraductal pathologies and its combined use with diagnostic imaging modalities.

Magnetic resonance imaging features of papillary breast lesions.

Purpose: This study was aimed to assess the role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the evaluation of the papillary lesions of the breast and their morphological relationship with the mammary ducts. The potential diagnostic contributory role of ductal oriented protocols to conventional dynamic magnetic resonance examination was also explored.

Materials And Methods: Retrospective data were collected from 46 patients who had been diagnosed with papillary breast lesions and undergone magnetic resonance examination.

Evaluation of nipple-areola complex with ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging.

Because both benign and malignant nipple periareolar region lesions may present with similar clinical findings such as nipple discharge and retraction, they require a diagnostically specific imaging workup. Despite multidisciplinary clinical approaches, malignancy cannot be excluded without diagnostic modalities.Because of the intricacy of the anatomical structures and their superficial position, the diagnostic techniques routinely used to evaluate the different sides of the breast may often be inadequate.
