Idiopathic megacolon and megarectum are rare clinical conditions characterized by irreversible dilation of the colon and rectum without an identifiable organic cause. The underlying pathophysiology remains poorly understood, though hypotheses suggest abnormalities in the enteric nervous system or smooth muscle dysfunction. These conditions present significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, especially in cases refractory to conservative treatment.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the impact of an iterative metal artifact reduction (iMAR) algorithm combined with virtual monoenergetic images (VMIs) for artifact reduction in photon-counting detector computed tomography (PCDCT) during interventions.
Materials And Methods: Using an abdominal phantom, we conducted evaluations on the efficacy of iMAR and VMIs for mitigating image artifacts during interventions on a PCDCT. Four different puncture devices were employed under 2 scan modes (QuantumSn at 100 kV, Quantumplus at 140 kV) to simulate various clinical scenarios.

Introduction And Clinical Importance: Placenta previa (PP) is characterized by abnormal placental placement in the lower uterine segment, obstructing the cervical opening. Placenta previa totalis (PPT) occurs when the placenta completely covers the internal cervical os. This condition can lead to placenta accreta spectrum (PAS), where the placenta adheres abnormally to the uterine wall, complicating separation.
