Standardized medical terminology for cardiac computed tomography: a report of the Society of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography.
Since the emergence of cardiac computed tomography (CT) at the turn of the 21st century, there has been an exponential growth in research and clinical development of the technique, with contributions from investigators and clinicians from varied backgrounds: physics and engineering, informatics, cardiology, and radiology. However, terminology for the field is not unified. As a consequence, ther...
متن کاملIs Visible Infarction on Computed Tomography Associated With an Adverse Prognosis in Acute Ischemic Stroke?
Background and Purpose—It is unclear whether visible infarction on a CT scan at any time after the stroke is an adverse prognostic factor once other factors such as stroke severity are taken into consideration. We examined whether visible infarction was associated with a poor outcome after stroke using univariate and multivariate analyses, including easily identifiable clinical baseline variabl...

متن کاملBiliary obstruction secondary to an extramedullary plasmacytoma of the pancreas: confusion with pancreatitis on computed tomography.
A 29-year-old woman with a history of a maxillary plasmacytoma treated with radiation therapy presented with painless jaundice. A computed tomography (CT) scan revealed biliary dilatation and diffuse pancreatic enlargement suggestive of pancreatitis. Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography demonstrated encasement of the distal common bile duct by an extrinsic mass. At exploratory laparotomy, ...
متن کاملComparison of multislice computed tomography to gated single-photon emission computed tomography for imaging of healed myocardial infarcts.
The aim of the study was to evaluate the performance of multislice computed tomography (MSCT) for the detection and semiquantitative analysis of healed myocardial infarct in comparison to single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). Recently, MSCT was shown to allow detection of myocardial infarct by the presence of hypoenhanced areas. However, direct comparisons to other imaging modalit...
