Osteitis fibrosa cystica is the classic patognomonic form of skeletal disease in hyperparathyroidism that characterizes with decreased cortical bone thickness compared to increased cancellous bone. We present a case of 52-year old female patient with osteolysis of the left calf on radiographic images. The bone scan detected multiple focal pathological accumulations in the skull, left tibia, bot...

PURPOSE To demonstrate the utility of high resolution 20 MHz ophthalmic ultrasound in serial follow-up of optic nerve head melanocytoma patients. METHODS This study is a retrospective review of 30 patients with melanocytoma of the optic nerve head studied with echography. All patients were evaluated with standard ophthalmic A-scan and B-scan ultrasonography and 10 (33%) underwent high-resolut...

a:To repcst the association of macular dystrophy with matemslly inherited diabetes mellitus, deafness and " pigmentary due to a mutation of mitochondrial DNA (tRNA M&~&we examined 8 diabetic probands with this mutation to precise the characteris& of the tetinopathy associated with this mutation. R&D: These probands belonged to 6 different families; six of them had deafness. The 8 patients had a...

This paper presents methods and a clinical procedure for integrating B-mode ultrasound images tagged with position information with a planning computed tomography (CT) scan for radiotherapy. A workflow is described that allows the integration of these modalities into the clinic. A surface mapping approach provides a preregistration of the ultrasound image borders onto the patient's skin. Succes...

 Background: Bilateral neck exploration is the gold standard for parathyroid adenoma localization in primary hyperparathyroidism. But surgeons do not have adequate experience for accurate surgical exploration and new methods are developed for surgery like unilateral exploration and minimally invasive surgery, thus, preoperative localization could reduces time and stress in surgical performance....

Studies were made with standard time motion and B-scan echocardiography on 48 patients including 5 with idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis (hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy), undergoing diagnostic cardiac catheterization. The dimensions of the left ventricular outflow (O) and inflow (I) tracts were measured on the B-scan images. The outflow tract was significantly narrowed in idi...

We report a case of a fetus with an ultrasonography diagnosis of a neuroblastoma during a routine third trimester fetal scan, which presented as a hyperechogenic nodule located above the right kidney. No other abnormalities were found in the ultrasonography scan; however, the follow-up ultrasonography during the 36th week of gestation revealed that the lesion had doubled in size. At the same ti...

INTRODUCTION The hydatid cyst is an anthropozoonosis due to the development of the Echinococcus granulosus tapeworm larva in humans. Its intraparotid localization is extremely rare. CLINICAL CASE A 10-year-old-male patient was admitted for an isolated renitent swelling of the left parotid region having grown for several months. Cervical ultrasonography revealed a left parotid cystic mass, cha...

A rare case of seminal vesicle cyst associated with ipsilateral renal agenesis is reported. The role of ultrasonography and computed tomography in diagnosis and management is discussed. Congenital malformations of the seminal vesicle are most uncommon and most of them are cystic malformation. Approximately two thirds of them are associated with ipsilateral renal agenesis, since both the uretera...
