Successful surgical management of esophageal leiomyoma presenting with gastroesophageal reflux disease symptoms: A case report.
Int J Surg Case Rep
December 2024
Gastroenterology Department, Al Ahli Hospital, Hebron 90200, Palestine.
Introduction: Esophageal leiomyoma is the most common benign submucosal mesenchymal tumor of the esophagus, typically asymptomatic but can cause symptoms such as dysphagia, chest pain, or regurgitation when large. Diagnosis is often incidental, confirmed by imaging techniques like computed tomography (CT) and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), with surgical enucleation being the standard treatment.
Presentation Of Case: A 28-year-old male presented with a one-year history of persistent epigastric discomfort and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptoms unresponsive to proton pump inhibitors.
Noninvasive Quantitative CT for Diffuse Liver Diseases: Steatosis, Iron Overload, and Fibrosis.
Radiographics
January 2025
From the Department of Radiology, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, 600 Highland Ave, E3/311 Clinical Science Center, Madison, WI 53792-3252; and the American College of Radiology (ACR) Institute for Radiologic Pathology, Silver Spring, Md.
Chronic diffuse liver disease continues to increase in prevalence and represents a global health concern. Noninvasive detection and quantification of hepatic steatosis, iron overload, and fibrosis are critical, especially given the many relative disadvantages and potential risks of invasive liver biopsy. Although MRI techniques have emerged as the preferred reference standard for quantification of liver fat, iron, and fibrosis, CT can play an important role in opportunistic detection of unsuspected disease and is performed at much higher volumes.

Surgery Department, Hanoi Medical University, Hanoi, Vietnam.
Background: The quadrant method is widely used to determine the femoral footprint center (FFC) on radiographs or computed tomography (CT) and can also describe the tibial footprint center (TFC). However, its application on three-dimensional (3D) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been limited. This study aims to describe the ACL footprint center position on 3D MRI of healthy knees using the quadrant method.

Department of Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering, University College London, London, UK.
Background: Motion of lung tumors during radiotherapy leads to decreased accuracy of the delivered dose distribution. This is especially true for proton radiotherapy due to the finite range of the proton beam. Methods for mitigating motion rely on knowing the position of the tumor during treatment.

: A prominent anterior tibial tuberosity (or tibial tubercle) can be seen in ongoing Osgood-Schlatter disease (OSD) in teenagers or as a sequela of OSD in adults. Current radiological methods do not provide a true anatomical assessment of the tibial tuberosity; therefore, we proposed and developed a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)-based method for measuring the anterior tibial tuberosity index, aiming to deal with the current lack of effective techniques for accurately assessing these particular morphologic features. : A retrospective study included 47 knees with tibial tuberosity measurements on both true sagittal MPR images of 3D proton density (PD)-weighted MRI sequences and lateral knee radiographs.
