conclusion gm presents with a wide range of conventional radiological findings, hampering the diagnosis. in patients with inconclusive conventional findings, mri may assist in the differential diagnosis and assessment of the extent of disease. however, a definitive diagnosis and relevant treatment require histopathological confirmation. objectives the aim of this study was to review the radiolo...

leiomyomas are benign tumors of the soft tissue and may develop in any location where smooth muscle is present. leiomyoma in the inferior vena cava is a rarely seen pathology, and symplastic leiomyoma is also a rare histological variant of leiomyoma. in this case, we present a rare histological variant of symplastic leiomyoma in the inferior vena cava (ivc). this is the first radiologically rep...

Th e article by Bataille et al 1 in CHEST (December 2014) represents a signifi cant advancement in the fi eld, not least because it demonstrates that lung ultrasonography (LUS) has serious limitations in patients with acute respiratory failure and that thoracic ultrasonography (TUS), which includes echocardiography, is preferable. Nevertheless, even if we consider Descartes’ observation that pe...
