MR Imaging Biomarkers for Clinical Impairment and Disease Progression in Patients with Shoulder Adhesive Capsulitis: A Prospective Study.

Background: MRI diagnostic criteria of shoulder adhesive capsulitis (AC) are nowadays widely used, but there is little information available on the association between MRI findings and clinical impairment.

Purpose: To determine the correlation of MRI findings with the Constant-Murley Score (CMS), pain duration and symptoms at the one-year follow-up in AC patients.

Materials And Methods: This monocentric prospective study included 132 patients with a clinical diagnosis of shoulder AC who underwent shoulder MRI.

Alternative PACS interface devices are well-accepted and may reduce radiologist's musculoskeletal discomfort as compared to keyboard-mouse-recording device.

Objective: To evaluate the use of two alternative picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) interface devices (a graphics tablet and a handheld controller) in clinical practice and on task-oriented exercises.

Material And Methods: Eleven senior radiologists were prospectively evaluated. The participants used the two tested interface devices for 10 working periods each and answered a questionnaire to evaluate the ergonomics of this experience.

Asymmetric and Diffuse Uptake of Left Femur in a 3-Year-Old Child Bone Scan: An Unusual Aspect in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.

Acute leukemia is a severe disease frequently encountered in childhood, often diagnosed in later stages because of nonspecific symptoms. It is known to produce uptake in bone scan, and previously described patterns have shown symmetrical abnormalities. However, we report the unusual aspect of the bone scan in a 3-year-old child who was referred to explore an isolated pain of his lower left limb, with hyperthermia and markers of inflammation.
