Pulmonary Histoplasmosis Mimicking Lung Cancer.

Due to the mass-like appearance of pulmonary histoplasmosis in the lung, radiological misdiagnosis may occur. Fungal infections should be considered in the differential diagnosis, especially in immune-compromised patients.

Prevalence of Bladder Cancers Incidentally Detected During Multiparametric MRI Scans of the Prostate Gland and the Clinical Significance of Scoring Them According to VI-RADS: A Pictorial Single-Centre Study.

Purpose: To determine the prevalence of incidentally detected bladder cancers (BCs) on multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) of the prostate and to highlight the clinical importance of scoring them according to the Vesical Imaging-Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS).

Materials And Methods: VI-RADS scores for incidental bladder lesions on mpMRI of the prostate were collected in 1693 patients with elevated prostate-specific antigen but no hematuria. The study included 19 patients with 28 incidental bladder lesions.

Isolated Intracranial Extramedullary Hematopoiesis in an Adult Patient.

Unlabelled: This article describes the case of a 56-year-old male patient who presented with a headache and swelling on the left side of his head. Medical examinations, including non-contrast computed tomography (CT) and contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), revealed the presence of an expansile soft tissue lesion in the frontoparietal bone structures, causing compression of the brain tissue. Further immunohistochemical analysis confirmed the diagnosis of extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) in the bone lesion, with predominant involvement of the myeloid series.

A needful, unique, and in-place evaluation of the injuries in earthquake victims with computed tomography, in catastrophic disasters! The 2023 Turkey-Syria earthquakes: part I.

Objective: This study was carried out to evaluate the injuries in pediatric earthquake victims due to the 2023 Turkey-Syria earthquakes with computed tomography and determine the anatomotopographic distribution of injuries.

Methods: The material of this retrospective study consisted of the computed tomography findings of 257 pediatric cases injured in the 2023 Turkey-Syria earthquakes, and those were divided into subgroups based on their age group, i.e.

Comparison of Doppler Ultrasound and Clinical Features of Patients With and Without Femoral Hernia in Lower Extremity Venous Insufficiency Patients.

In this study, we aim to evaluate Doppler ultrasound (US) and clinical features of patients with and without femoral hernia (FH) in lower extremity chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) patients.We retrospectively analyzed prospectively collected data of 1364 limbs with the CVI suspected. Femoral hernia was detected in 32 of the limbs, and the control group was formed with 32 limbs without FH.

Intrascrotal Extratesticular Schwannoma: A Rare Cause of Scrotal Mass.

Background: Schwannoma, also known as neurinoma, is the most common tumor of the peripheral nerves. Intrascrotal extratesticular schwannoma, which is not associated with schwannomatosis and neurofibromatosis-2, is a very rare entity, and few cases have been reported in the literature. In this paper, we have reported a case of extratesticular schwannoma, an extremely rare cause of scrotal mass, with ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings.

Prospective assessment of VI-RADS score in multiparametric MRI in bladder cancer: accuracy and the factors affecting the results.

PURPOSE We aimed to investigate the accuracy of Vesical Imaging - Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS) in the detection of muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) and to determine which factors affect the results of this scoring system. METHODS A prospective data analysis of 80 patients who were detected to have bladder tumor was performed between March 2019 and October 2020. VI-RADS scoring was used to determine the probability of muscle invasion.

Differentiation of affected and nonaffected ovaries in ovarian torsion with magnetic resonance imaging texture analysis.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of texture analysis on T2-weighted axial images in differentiating affected and nonaffected ovaries in ovarian torsion.

Methods: We included 22 torsioned ovaries and 19 healthy ovaries. All patients were surgically proven ovarian torsion cases.

Comparison of the diagnostic accuracy and validity of biparametric MRI and multiparametric MRI-based VI-RADS scoring in bladder cancer; is contrast material really necessary in detecting muscle invasion?

Purpose: (1) To evaluate the accuracy and validity of the biparametric MRI (bp-MRI), including T2-weigthed image (WI) and DWI sequences, and the availability of an alternative to the multiparametric MRI (mp-MRI), for the muscle-invasiveness assessment of bladder cancer (BC). (2) To evaluate the diagnostic performance and agreement of readers with different experiences in the abdominal imaging of using both protocols.

Methods: Preoperative bladder mp-MRI was performed on 128 patients with a initial diagnosis of BC.
