Objective(s): In clinical practice, approximately 10-25% of post-surgical differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) patients with high serum thyroglobulin (Tg) and negative 131I whole-body scan (WBS) have poor prognosis due to recurrent or metastatic lesions after radioactive iodine treatment. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the value of 18F-FDG PET/CT scan in DTC patients with high seru...

A 25-year-old female presented with sudden-onset dyspnoea. A chest X-ray showed total atelectasis on the left haemithorax (Fig. 1). A chest computed tomography (CT) revealed a cystic mass in the posterior mediastinum that compressed the left main bronchus (Fig. 2). Pathological examination confirmed a broncho-genic cyst in the posterior mediastinum. Figure 1: Chest X-ray showing total atelectas...

COVID-19 is a virus that infects the respiratory system and causes pneumonia, kidney failure, other health issues. The purpose of early diagnosis fastest time to keep healthy cells for patients. A check-up has been performed patients whose ages were between (85–25) years by CT scan laboratory-analysis (PCR) X-ray PET/CT scan. considered more clear method because production radiographic image qu...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to determine the detection rate of lung metastasis or a synchronous lung primary tumor in patients with newly diagnosed head and neck mucosal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and to determine factors that are associated with positive findings. METHODS This was a prospective cohort study of 102 patients with head and neck mucosal SCC diagnosed in a tertiar...

Introduction: Nowadays applying computer in image processing is being improved revolutionary for solving medical images deficiencies. Image features that are analysis in image processing show image information. The aim of the present study was to find correlation between CT- scan and MRI images' features. Materials and Methods: After data acquisition, applying...

Chest X-ray ( fig. 1 a, arrows) and a contrast-enhanced CT scan ( fig. 1 b) demonstrated a well-defined, homogeneous, pleural soft-tissue mass close to the right diaphragm. It was slightly enhanced, similar to that of a normal liver without any anatomic connection with subpleural, normal liver. A diagnostic CT-guided transthoracic A 65-year-old female who had never smoked presented with an abno...

Three cases of cortical blindness complicating eclampsia are described, with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and X-ray computed tomography (CT). The correspondence of MRI lesions (hyperintense on T2 weighted, and hypointense on T1 weighted sections) and low attenuation lesions on CT scan indicated ischaemia rather than haemorrhage as the pathological mechanism.
