Background: Müllerian anomalies significantly impact female reproductive health. This study aims to compare the diagnostic efficacy of three-dimensional ultrasound (3D-US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in detecting and classifying these anomalies.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of 150 patients with Müllerian anomalies was conducted at Saveetha Medical College and Hospital from March 2018 to March 2024.
Emphysematous osteomyelitis (EO) is a rare and severe bone infection characterized by the presence of gas within the bone and surrounding soft tissues, commonly caused by gas-forming bacteria. We present a case of an elderly patient with extensive EO due to infection. The patient exhibited systemic signs of infection and severe localized pain.

This study set out to assess the diagnostic utility of DWI and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values in the characterization of breast lesions. Materials and methods A retrospective analysis comprised 30 patients with breast lesions who had breast MRI with DWI.

Preoperative imaging using CT and MRI can provide critical insights into the surgical challenges that may be encountered. This study aims to evaluate the role of CT and MRI in preoperative assessment to predict the difficulty of cochlear implant surgery in terms of surgical time.

This article critically reviews the anatomy of the carotid space and highlights the spectrum of pathologies within this complex region, illustrated by three case studies. The cases were examined with ultrasonography (USG), computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
