Article Abstract

The results of a comprehensive radionuclide, ultrasound and thermographic study of 18 patients with toxic thyroid adenoma are presented. It has been shown that during thermographic examination temperature difference over the node and the symmetrical region is insignificant and does not exceed 1 degree C in most of the patients. It equally pertains to the comparison of temperatures over the node and the hottest and coldest points in the cervical region. Ultrasound examination makes it possible to determine the shape, size, exact location of the node and its internal structure but gives no opportunity to judge its functional activity. It has been shown that a node in toxic adenoma may have homogeneous as well as heterogeneous echo-structure , elevated or lowered echo-density; changes of degenerative-dystrophic nature are not infrequent.

Evidence-based medicine integrates clinical research, personal expertise, and patient values. The most robust forms of clinical evidence, such as randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and prospective studies, provide the strongest support for medical decision-making. RCTs are vital in radiology for evaluating new imaging technologies, contrast agents, and therapeutic procedures, despite challenges in translating preclinical findings to clinical practice.

Imaging in atypical van der knaap disease with subependymal nodular heterotopia: A case report.

Radiol Case Rep

February 2025

Junior Resident, Department of Radiodiagnosis, Kempegowda Institute of Medical Sciences Hospital and Research Centre, Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences, Bangalore, 560004, Karnataka, India.

Here, we discuss a rare and to our knowledge, the first case of an atypical Van der Knaap's disease in a 6-year-old boy who presented with motor difficulties, developmental delay, cognitive impairment, seizures. The objective of this report is to highlight its unusual findings on MRI including internal capsule, brainstem, cerebellum involvement; subependymal nodular heterotopia, subependymal cysts, cortical laminar necrosis along with typical findings of megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy and subcortical cysts. The study also underscores the clinical implications of this complex pathology, with emphasis on comprehensive neuroradiological evaluation for atypical presentations to guide better diagnostic and management outcomes.
