Article Synopsis
- The study assessed how the COVID-19 pandemic affected the head injury fast-track system and surgical outcomes by comparing patient data before and during the pandemic.
- A total of 128 patients were analyzed from the prepandemic period and 119 from the pandemic period, showing longer emergency room processing times during COVID but no significant changes in mortality or functional outcomes.
- Though there were delays in treatment during the pandemic, the overall health outcomes for head injury patients remained comparable to the prepandemic period.
Purpose: To assess the efficacy of radiomics features extracted from non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT) scans in differentiating multiple etiologies of spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).
Methods: CT images and clinical data from 141 ICH patients from 2010 to 2022 were collected. The cohort comprised primary (n = 57), tumorous (n = 46), and vascular malformation-related ICH (n = 38).
Purpose: It is currently unclear how useful repeat computed tomography angiography (CTA) is in spontaneous subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) patients after negative initial digital subtraction angiography (DSA). The purpose of this study is to assess the yield of repeat CTA for the detection of causative vascular lesions in patients with SAH in whom there has been a negative initial DSA.
Material And Methods: This observational retrospective study was carried out from January 2013 to July 2022 at a single institution.
Aims: This study aims to analyze the predictor in preoperative brain computed tomographic angiography (CTA) for final infarct and outcome in postendovascular thrombectomy patient.
Subjects And Methods: 52 patients were retrospectively reviewed. The Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score (ASPECTS) comparison between preoperative noncontrast computed tomography (NCCT) and 24-h NCCT as well as preoperative CTA source image (CTA-SI) and 24-h NCCT were performed.
Objective: To evaluate the value of ultrasonographic features of crystal deposition for diagnosing gout in patients presenting with acute arthritis.
Materials And Methods: Ultrasound scanning of the most inflamed joint was performed on 89 consecutively enrolled patients with acute arthritis. Two radiologists independently reviewed the ultrasound images, and a consensus was achieved with a third radiologist when the interpretations of four key ultrasound features of gout differed.
