A case of multiple myeloma of bone with retroperitoneal extension is reported and results of ultrasound and computed tomography imaging in this affection discussed. The tumoral mass can be evaluated with precision due to the reliability of CT scan imaging in the diagnosis of bony lesions and a positive diagnosis made and follow up reviews of changes in extra-osseous myelomatous masses conducted by combined ultrasound and CT scan imaging.

Evaluation of Perceptual and Anthropometrical Facial Changes According to Increase in Vertical Dimension of Occlusion.
J Oral Rehabil
January 2025
Department of Prosthodontics and Research Institute of Oral Science, College of Dentistry, Gangneung-Wonju National University, Gangneung, Republic of Korea.
Background: For restorative demands, increased vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO) is sometimes necessary, as facial changes can be perceptible.
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the perception of facial change due to increased VDO and associated soft tissue changes using 3D-scanned facial images.
Methods: Forty participants with healthy dentition and no loss of VDO were recruited.
Optic nerve sheath diameter/eyeball transverse diameter ratio by ultrasound in prediction of increased intracranial pressure in children with viral encephalitis.

Department of Pediatrics, The Affiliated Yangming Hospital of Ningbo University, Yuyao People's Hospital, Yuyao Branch of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Ningbo, China.
Introduction: Increased intracranial pressure (ICP) is common with viral encephalitis in children which is associated with complications and prognosis. The optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) is a new indicator for the assessment of intracranial pressure using ultrasound, CT scan and MRI imaging. Given the influence of physical development on ONSD size in children, we expect more accurate assessment of intracranial pressure with ONSD/ETD (eyeball transverse diameter) ratio by ultrasound.

Ann Neurosci
October 2024
Department of Radiology, Aga Khan University Hospital, Stadium Road, Karachi, Pakistan.
Background: Hyperdense middle cerebral artery sign (HMCAS) on a non-enhanced multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) scan is considered an important radiological marker in detecting acute arterial thrombotic occlusion, and it is one of the earliest signs of ischemic cerebrovascular accident (CVA). This finding has been observed within 90 min of symptom onset. Modern approaches to patients with cerebral infarction emphasize early diagnosis and management.

January 2025
Department of Neurology and Institute of Neurology of First Affiliated Hospital, Institute of Neuroscience, Fujian Key Laboratory of Molecular Neurology, Fujian Medical University, Fuzhou, China.
Introduction: Hemorrhagic transformation (HT) is a severe complication in patients with acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion (AIS-LVO) after endovascular treatment (EVT). We hypothesize that asymmetry of the internal cerebral veins (ICVs) on baseline CT angiogram (CTA) may serve as an adjunctive predictor of HT.
Methods: We conducted a study on consecutive AIS-LVO patients from November 2020 to April 2022.
Evaluating the correlation between pretreatment F-FDG PET/CT metabolic parameters and tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte levels in nonluminal breast cancer and impact on survival.

January 2025
Department of Nuclear Medicine, Prof. Dr. Cemil Taşcıoğlu City Hospital, University of Health Sciences, Istanbul, Türkiye.
Background And Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the correlation between Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocyte (TIL) levels and Fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) metabolic parameters, including spleen and bone marrow FDG uptake and tumor heterogeneity in non-luminal breast cancers (NLBC), and to elucidate their association with survival outcomes.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data from 100 females with stage 2-4 NLBC who underwent pretreatment F-FDG Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT). TIL was scored based on Hematoxylin-Eosin-stained specimens and F-FDG PET metabolic parameters, including maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax), mean standardized uptake value (SUVmean), metabolic tumor volume (MTV), total lesion glycolysis (TLG), liver, spleen, and bone marrow FDG uptake were calculated.
