Focal hepatic enhancement on computed tomography in a patient with non-small cell lung carcinoma.
Thoracic computed tomography (CT) was done to assess the response to treatment of a poorly differentiated carcinoma of the lung in a 32-year-old man. An image from this study through the level of the liver demonstrates a focal area of contrast enhancement within the medial segment of the left lobe (Fig 1), a finding that was not present on prior examination. The most likely cause for the enhanc...
متن کامل"Hot spot" on hepatic scintigraphy [Persian]
Filling defects are often observed on 99mTc sulfur colloid liver scans. Hot spots are much less frequently seen. Superior vena cava syndrome is the most frequent cause of this finding. In this report 3 patients with S.V.C and budd - Chiari syndrome with HOT SPOT on liver scan are presented. Mechanisms of scintigraphic patterns are reviewed.
متن کاملEstimating the Radiation-Induced Cancer Risks in Pediatric Computed Tomography
Introduction One of the central questions in radiological protection is the magnitude of the risks from low doses of radiation, related to the justification and optimization of the diagnostic medical exposures. Therefore, the aim of this study was to estimate the cancer incidence and mortality risks in children of different ages, sizes, and ethnicities undergoing computed tomography examination...
متن کاملHepatic Pseudolesion in SVC obstruction - 99mTechnetium Sulfur Colloid Scan Equivalent of Quadrate Lobe Hot Spot Sign on Computerized Tomography
An area of increased activity in segment IV of liver (quadrate lobe) on 99mTc-sulfur colloid (TSC) scans has been well documented in patients with superior vena cava obstruction. Similarly intense enhancement of the quadrate lobe in the arterial phase may be seen on computed tomography in patients of superior vena cava syndrome. We present this imaging finding in a case of malignant thymoma cau...
متن کاملComputed tomography in staging for lung cancer.
Computed tomography (CT) provides the most detailed imaging information, hence it is generally used as a routine imaging procedure in the tumour, node, metastasis (TNM)-staging of patients with lung cancer. However, despite the continuously ongoing process of improvement in CT scanning in which today's CT scanners combine fast acquisition, fast data reconstruction and high detail, the technique...
