Background: Bismuth composites are new and non-lead shields that are capable of breast dose reduction while preserving image quality. In this study, different percentages of Bismuth were used in designing and constructing polymer composites as breast shields in chest CT.  Materials and Methods: Micro particles of Bismuth with a ratio of 1% to 15% in Silicone matrix with two thicknesses were use...

AIM To evaluate the diagnostic sensitivity and accuracy and the cost-effectiveness of this technique in the detection of gastroenteropancreatic carcinoid tumors and their metastases in comparison with conventional imaging methods. METHODS Somatostatin receptor scintigraphy (SRS) was performed in 24 patients with confirmed carcinoids and 7 under investigation. The results were compared with th...

Introduction: Cauda equina secondary to metastatic follicular thyroid cancer of the lumbosacral area is a rare entity.   Case Report: We report an unusual case of a 52-year-old male who presented with backache, lower limb weakness, and perianal numbness. A CT-scan of the lumbosacral area showed an enhancing mass at the L4, L5 and S1 vertebrae. Histopathology after excision revealed a metast...

  ABSTRACT   Background: While the benefits of Computed Tomography (CT) are well known in accurate diagnosis, those benefits are not risk free. CT is a device with higher patient dose in comparison with other conventional radiological procedures. Is the reduction of exposures by requiring optimization of CT procedures [a principle concern in radiological protection]? In this study, the radiatio...

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to assess the role of pre-operative chest computed tomography (CT) compared with abdominopelvic CT (AP-CT) and chest radiography (CXR) for detecting pulmonary metastasis in patients with primary colorectal cancer (CRC). METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the data of 619 patients with primary CRC who simultaneously received a preoperative chest CT (chest CT g...
