Objective: This article reviews the spectrum of disease processes that may involve the aortic root with particular emphasis on the role of cardiovascular MRI and MDCT angiography in their assessment. Key MRI and MDCT imaging findings are discussed and illustrated.
Conclusion: Radiologists should be aware of the spectrum of disease processes that may involve the aortic root and their appearances at MRI and MDCT angiography.

Article Synopsis
- Refusal of autopsy can happen for reasons like religious beliefs and concerns about diseases, prompting interest in alternative methods like virtual forensic odontological autopsy.
- The study systematically reviewed literature from December 2021 to October 2022 to assess the use of oral and maxillofacial radiology as a non-invasive technique for virtual autopsy.
- Four main imaging techniques were identified for virtual autopsy in forensic odontology, including CT scanning (multidetector CT), cone beam CT, and magnetic resonance imaging, each with unique benefits.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of 5.0T MRI, 3.0T MRI, and MDCT in identifying insulinomas and understanding their relationship to the pancreatic duct.
- Results showed that 5.0T MRI had superior image quality, lesion contrast, and tumor detection rates compared to 3.0T MRI and MDCT.
- The findings suggest that 5.0T MRI is more effective in assessing insulinomas and predicting the risk of complications after surgery than the other imaging methods.

Hippokration General Hospital of Thessaloniki, Thessaloniki, Greece.
Lymphangioma, a benign mass of lymphatic origin, primarily affects the head, neck, and oral cavity, with the abdomen being an uncommon location. Clinical presentation is defined by site of origin and size. We present the case of a 10-month-old male infant with no previous medical history, admitted to our department with diffuse abdominal pain and distension.
