Oesophageal injury mimicking a tubular congenital oesophageal duplication-a diagnostic dilemma: a case report.

Intramural oesophageal dissection (IED) is an uncommon condition in newborns marked by the separation of the mucosal and submucosal layers of the oesophageal wall, both transversely and longitudinally, which may or may not involve perforation. A neonate presented at 26 h of life with poor respiratory effort and lethargy. She was intubated and was put on mechanical ventilation.

Antenatally detected fetus in fetu case report.

Fetus in fetu (FIF) is an extremely rare pathology in which a malformed fetus is located in the body of its twin. It may occur as a result of an aberration of the twinning process. It is important to distinguish this condition from a teratoma.

Getting Vaccinated Helps: Prospective Study Reveals Lower CT Severity Scores amongst COVID Vaccine Recipients.

 Computerized tomography (CT) is an invaluable imaging investigation for evaluating COVID-19 disease. CT detects early changes of COVID-19 pneumonia and predicts the disease prognosis based on a semiquantitative 25-point CT severity score (CT-SS). India launched its vaccination drive in January 2021 with two different vaccines being approved by the government.

Radiographic findings in COVID-19: Comparison between AI and radiologist.

Context: As the burden of COVID-19 enhances, the need of a fast and reliable screening method is imperative. Chest radiographs plays a pivotal role in rapidly triaging the patients. Unfortunately, in low-resource settings, there is a scarcity of trained radiologists.

Spectrum of Orbital Cellulitis on Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

Introduction Orbital infection is an ophthalmological emergency as it can lead to blindness and intracranial spread. Imaging is needed to determine the extent of the infection, to localize an abscess, and for surgical planning. The role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is well established in the evaluation of orbital pathologies, including orbital cellulitis and abscess, mainly due to its ability to evaluate early intracranial involvement.

The REVAMP study: research exploring various aspects and mechanisms in preeclampsia: study protocol.

Background: Preeclampsia is a major cause of maternal, fetal and neonatal morbidity and mortality, particularly in developing countries. Considering the burden of preeclampsia and its associated complications, it is important to understand the underlying risk factors and mechanisms involved in its etiology. There is considerable interest in the potential for dietary long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFA) as a therapeutic intervention to prevent preeclampsia, as they are involved in angiogenesis, oxidative stress, and inflammatory pathways.

Ultrasound of the pediatric chest.

Cross-sectional imaging modalities like MRI and CT provide images of the chest which are easily understood by clinicians. However, these modalities may not always be available and are expensive. Lung ultrasonography (US) has therefore become an important tool in the hands of clinicians as an extension of the clinical exam, which has been underutilized by the radiologists.

The value of sonoelastography in the diagnosis of supraspinatus tendinopathy-a comparison study.

Objective:: This study assessed the association between tendon stiffness on sonoelastography and grades of tendinopathy on MRI in patients with supraspinatus tendinopathy.

Methods:: 25 consecutive adult patients with clinically suspected supraspinatus tendinopathy and no prior history of trauma referred for MRI of the shoulder were selected for this study. The supraspinatus tendinopathy was graded in consonance with MRI findings (Grade I, normal; Grade II, mild tendinopathy; Grade III, moderate tendinopathy; and Grade IV, marked tendinopathy).

Unusual presentation of hydatid cyst - ruptured intraventricular hydatid.

Echinococcosis in humans occurs as a result of infection by the larval stages of taenid cestodes of the genus . Most of the intracranial hydatids develop in brain parenchyma. Hydatid cyst within the cerebral ventricle is quite unusual.

Association of dental and skeletal fluorosis with calcium intake and serum vitamin D concentration in adolescents from a region endemic for fluorosis.

Context: Fluorosis is controlled by the duration of fluoride exposure and calcium and Vitamin D nutrition status.

Aim: To examine (a) prevalence of dental and skeletal fluorosis in adolescents from upper, middle, and lower socioeconomic strata (SES) and (b) association of fluorosis with calcium intake and Vitamin D status.

Settings And Design: A cross-sectional study conducted in 10-13.

Restricted diffusion in the corpus callosum: A neuroradiological marker in hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy.

Background: Restricted diffusion within the splenium of the corpus callosum has been described by other authors in various conditions, however, restricted diffusion in the entire corpus callosum or isolated involvement of the splenium, genu, or body has been infrequently reported on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy. We report a series of cases showing different patterns of involvement.

Methods And Materials: Perinatal imaging with MRI including diffusion-weighted imaging was performed in 40 neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, including 11 premature neonates.

Fetal MRI: A pictorial essay.

Ultrasonography (USG) is the primary method for antenatal fetal evaluation. However, fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has now become a valuable adjunct to USG in confirming/excluding suspected abnormalities and in the detection of additional abnormalities, thus changing the outcome of pregnancy and optimizing perinatal management. With the development of ultrafast sequences, fetal MRI has made remarkable progress in recent times.

MRI evaluation of pathologies affecting the corpus callosum: A pictorial essay.

The corpus callosum is a midline cerebral structure and has a unique embryological development pattern. In this article, we describe the pathophysiology and present imaging findings of various typical/atypical conditions affecting the corpus callosum. Since many of these pathologies have characteristic appearances on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and their therapeutic approaches are poles apart, ranging from medical to surgical, the neuroradiologist should be well aware of them.

Cystic variant of embryonal sarcoma of liver.

Embryonal sarcoma of the liver is an unusual tumor. The cystic form is rare and can mimic hydatid disease. We present a case that was mistakenly treated as a hydatid cyst for 3 months.
