MR imaging of labial glands.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The labial salivary gland is a site of occurrence of tumors and cysts, and it serves as the biopsy site for the diagnosis of Sjögren syndrome. However, its imaging features have not been well understood. Here we attempted to depict the labial gland by high-resolution MR imaging. MATERIALS AND METHODS The labial glands from 89 patients without Sjögren syndrome, 14 patien...
متن کاملHigh-frequency ultrasound assessment of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy in vitro.
Ultrasound imaging is proving to be an important tool for medical diagnosis of dermatological disease. Backscatter spectral profiles using high-frequency ultrasound (HFUS, 10-100 MHz) are sensitive to subtle changes in eukaryotic cellular morphology and mechanical properties that are indicative of early apoptosis, the main type of cell death induced following photodynamic therapy (PDT). We perf...
متن کاملDo High Frequency Ultrasound Images Support Clinical Skin Assessment?
High frequency ultrasound imaging has been reported as a potential method of identifying the suspected tissue damage in patients "at risk" of pressure ulceration. The aim of this study was to explore whether ultrasound images supported the clinical skin assessment in an inpatient population through identification of subcutaneous tissue damage. Skin on the heels and/or sacral coccygeal area of f...
متن کاملSilicone granulomas following free silicone gluteal augmentation
Gallium-67 citrate has long been used for imaging of infection and inflammation. Although gallium-67 uptake due to silicone implants and silicone injections has been previously reported in the literature, very few cases are documented. We report a case of increased gallium-67 uptake in the buttocks in a patient who previously received silicone injections in the buttocks, to reemphasize silicone...
متن کاملEarly assessment of high-intensity focused ultrasound treatment of benign thyroid nodules by scintigraphic means
BACKGROUND High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) allows to inflict intracorporal thermal lesions without penetrating the skin or damaging the surrounding tissue. This analysis intends to assess the magnitude of HIFU-induced ablations within benign thyroid nodules using scintigraphic imaging with (99m)Tc. METHODS Ten cold, hot, or indifferent nodules were treated using multiple pulses of HI...
