Introduction: Important developments in the diagnosis of scuba diving fatalities have been made thanks to forensic imaging tool improvements. Multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) permits reliable interpretation of the overall gaseous distribution in the cadaver. However, due to post-mortem delay, the radiological interpretation is often doubtful because the distinction between gas related to the dive and post-mortem decomposition artifactual gases becomes less obvious.

Duplication images in vascular sonography.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics and phenomena of duplication (or mirror) images in vascular sonography.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 5 cases of vascular sonography that produced duplication images performed between June 30, 2009, and January 10, 2010. The 5 vascular studies included the subclavian artery (2), subclavian vein (1), carotid artery (1), and abdominal aorta (1).

At arterial phase gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance (MR) angiography, artifactual stenosis of the subclavian artery is sometimes seen adjacent to the subclavian vein on the side of the contrast material injection. Experiments in phantoms and in 19 patients showed increased artifact with longer echo time and higher concentration of injected contrast material. An effective method to substantially decrease this susceptibility artifact was threefold dilution of gadopentetate dimeglumine and use of a short echo time (1 msec).
