Purpose: The study aimed to examine the usefulness of a novel density measurement drill for evaluating cancellous bone density by examining the correlation between computed tomography (CT)-based Misch bone density classification and drilling torque value.
Methods: Bovine ribs were used as the drilling sites for implant placement. Multidetector CT (MDCT) was performed after contrast materials were attached to the drilling sites.

Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is an extranodal low-grade non-Hodgkin lymphoma that extremely rarely localises to the mediastinum. A 34-year-old female with chronic arthralgia, sicca and rash was found to have a well-demarcated mediastinal cystic mass with equivocal nodular enhancement within the cystic wall on chest CT during a workup for Sjögren's syndrome. Subsequent Ga-Pentixafor-PET/CT revealed focal uptake increase within the cystic capsule.

In this case report, we present a 39-year-old patient with a large space-occupying tumour of the right hemichest and anterior mediastinum. Due to the large size of the tumour and involvement of the right lung, a right pneumonectomy, right hemidiaphragm and partial pericardial resection were completed.

Retroperitoneal lymphangioma is exceptionally rare. We present a case of a 41-year-old asymptomatic patient with a large abdominal cystic mass detected on contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) scan, initially suspected to be pseudomyxoma peritonei. Laparoscopic exploration revealed a 30 x 30 cm multilocular cystic tumour originating from the retroperitoneum.

Background: Bronchoscopic lung volume reduction (BLVR) can be an effective treatment for highly selected patients with severe emphysema but only half of carefully selected patients derive clinical benefit. Two commercially available platforms exist to help determine candidacy for BLVR via quantitative analysis of computed tomography (CT) scans.
Objectives: To determine if the two commercially available quantitative platforms identified the same patient population that may benefit from BLVR.
