Isolated Wormian Bone Detected during Second Trimester Scan by Means of 3D Sonography

I-61: Second Trimester Genetic Sonography

Concurrent Septal and Right Ventricular Aneurysms Detected on Second Trimester Ultrasound Scan: A Case Report.

Congenital aneurysms and diverticula of the heart are rare anomalies and their prenatal diagnosis is challenging. Fetuses with suspected cardiac aneurysms on ultrasound (US) screening should undergo targeted fetal echocardiography, postnatal imaging, and follow-ups. Herein, we describe the second trimester US scan and postnatal cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of a baby girl wi...

Role of second-trimester genetic sonography after Down syndrome screening.

OBJECTIVE To estimate the effectiveness of second-trimester genetic sonography in modifying Down syndrome screening test results. METHODS The First and Second Trimester Evaluation of Risk (FASTER) aneuploidy screening trial participants were studied from 13 centers where a 15- to 23-week genetic sonogram was performed in the same center. Midtrimester Down syndrome risks were estimated for fiv...

Lymphatic spread of pagetic osteogenic sarcoma detected by bone scan

Bone scans are widely utilized for detection of metastases from bone sarcomas. Technetium methylene diphosphonate scan ([(99m)Tc]MDP) is one of the most popular radiotracers used for that purpose. Lymphatic spread of bone sarcomas is unusual and often difficult to diagnose. Unfortunately, bone scans are not as sensitive in demonstrating lymphatic spread of sarcomas as they are at demonstrating ...

A wandering spleen detected by 99mTc-denatured RBC scan

A 23 day old infant patient underwent 99mTc-denatured RBC scanning for locating possible ectopic spleen in our department.  The scan showed no tracer activity in normal splenic bed in the left upper quadrant and an ectopic spleen was shown on the right side of abdomen inferior to the liver. 99mTc-denatured RBC scan is an easy and available method for splenic localization i...
