Spinal Morphometry As A Novel Predictor For Recurrent Lumbar Disc Herniation Requiring Revision Surgery: Results of A Case Control Study.

Introduction: There is conflicting data on the risk factors for recurrent lumbar disc herniation (rLDH). Most of the predictors for rLDH identified so far are acquired risk factors or radiological factors at the level of the herniation. Whole lumbar spine (WLS) morphometry has not been evaluated as a possible predictor of rLDH.

An Institutional Review of Tuberculosis Spine Mimics on MR Imaging: Cases of Mistaken Identity.

Although MRI has a spectrum of findings which help in the diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) spine, a broad spectrum of spine pathologies resemble Pott's spine on MRI and are often missed due to inadequate clinical details. As a result, patients are often subject to unnecessary biopsy. A blinded radiologist may misdiagnose such mimic cases as TB.

Myriad of MR imaging phenotypes of primary central nervous system lymphoma in a cohort of immunocompetent Indian patient population.

PCNSL (primary central nervous system lymphoma) is a chemosensitive and radiosensitive tumor, and early diagnosis has a significant impact on management. Unlike many other brain tumors, radical surgical excision of PCNSLs is not indicated because these lesions are highly infiltrative and even partial resection leads to a bad prognosis. The goal of this study is to highlight the unusual radiological presentation of PCNSLs and increase the awareness, familiarity, and global database of our observations that pose a challenge on management.
