Magnetic resonance imaging findings in adnexial torsion.

Ovarian torsion: pictorial essay focused on magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography findings*

The present article is aimed at describing the key findings of ovarian torsion at computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Two investigators have consensually selected and analyzed magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography images acquired in the period from January 2010 to December 2011 of patients with proven acute abdominal pain resulting from ovarian torsion, highlighting...

Castleman Disease Mimicking Ovarian Tumour_Layout 1

Castleman disease is a lymphoid disease characterized by herpes virus infection associated hyperplasia of lymphatic tissue. Castleman disease is generally localized in the mediastinum (70%) and the regions that it may be seen outside of the thorax are neck, axilla, pelvis and retroperitoneum. Castleman disease may present unicentrically or multicentrically. Fifty-six year old postmenopausal wom...

Cranial Nerve Lymphomatosis Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings in a Case of Mantle Cell Lymphoma

O-19: A Comparison of Pelvic Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Trans-Vaginal and Trans-Rectal Sonography with Laparoscopic Findings in The Diagnosis of Deep Infiltrating Endometriosis

Background The performance of TVS, TRS and MRI for the diagnosis of DIE have been separately reported in earlier studies. However, the three methods have not been concurrently compared in terms of their overall performance and classified results as per different anatomical locations of DIE lesions in a large study population. This study was an attempt to compare pelvic magnetic resonance imagin...

Susceptibility-weighted Imaging of Ovarian Torsion: A Case Report.

We report findings of magnetic resonance imaging including susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) of the subacute torsion of an ovarian fibrothecoma in a patient with renal dysfunction. Although venous thrombosis within the vascular pedicle mimicked a malignant tumor, showing high signal intensity on T2-weighted images and diffusion-weighted imaging, we diagnosed ovarian torsion on SWI without t...
