Incidental focal intracranial computed tomographic findings.

Determining the Cost of Incidental Findings for Patients Undergoing Preoperative Planning for Abdominally Based Perforator Free Flap Breast Reconstruction with Computed Tomographic Angiography.

BACKGROUND Computed tomographic angiography is increasingly used during surgical planning for abdominally based microvascular breast reconstruction. Cost-analysis studies have demonstrated a benefit to the use of computed tomographic angiography, although the secondary costs of incidental findings have not been previously reported. This study investigates the cost of computed tomographic angiog...

Emergency cranial computed tomography in the management of acute febrile encephalopathy in children.

OBJECTIVE Evaluation of the influence of emergency cranial computed tomography on the management of acute febrile encephalopathy in children. METHODS A retrospective study in children with acute febrile encephalopathy who underwent emergency cranial computed tomography within 12 hours of admission to the paediatric intensive care unit. All scans were evaluated by two independent radiologists....

Incidental dentomaxillofacial findings on cone beam computed tomography images of Iranian population

BACKGROUND AND AIM: The present study aimed to assess the nature and prevalence of incidental findings in cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of oral and maxillofacial patients. METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, 773 CBCT samples were retrieved from archives of a private oral and maxillofacial radiology center. Any findings that were not related to the reason of CBCT request was re...

Computed tomographic findings in cerebral arterial ectasia.

The computed tomographic findings in 15 patients with angiographically documented cerebral arterial ectasia are reported. In addition to demonstrating the majority of pathologic arterial segments, computed tomography also documents the presence and extent of associated intracranial abnormalities. In this study these included cerebral atrophy (10 patients), infarction (three patients), and subar...
