Although the color Doppler ultrasonography diagnosis of intestinal malrotation with midgut volvulus, based on the typical "whirlpool" appearance of the mesenteric vascular structures is well-defined in the peer-reviewed literature, the combination of both the angiographic illustration of these findings and the contemporary state-of-the-art imaging techniques is lacking. We report the digital su...

Korean J Radiol 9(5), October 2008 Although the color Doppler ultrasonography diagnosis of intestinal malrotation with midgut volvulus, based on the typical “whirlpool” appearance of the mesenteric vascular structures is well-defined in the peer-reviewed literature, the combination of both the angiographic illustration of these findings and the contemporary state-of-the-art imaging techniques i...

INTRODUCTION Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are able to demonstrate and to diagnose hepatic focal nodular hyperplasia when a typical pattern of a well-circumscribed lesion with a central scar is present.Our aim is to propose the split-bolus multidetector-row computed tomography technique as an alternative to the conventional triphasic technique in the detection and character...

Fenestration of the internal jugular vein is a rare malformation. Herein, the authors describe an extreme fenestration of the left internal jugular vein. This anomaly was found incidentally in a 47-year-old male patient undergoing multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) imaging and MDCT angiography evaluation for vertebral artery injury due to cervical trauma. MDCT angiography ...

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) play a critical role in diagnosing aortic disease such as aortic dissection and aneurysm. Additionally, the advent of contrast-enhanced MRA has allowed MRA to advance markedly and several new imaging techniques to emerge as well. While computed tomography (CT) angiography using multidetector-row CT is a significant innova...

Congenital abnormalities of coronary arteries are an uncommon cause of sudden cardiac death and are difficult to detect at coronary angiography. We describe two patients with acute coronary syndrome and non-occlusive coronary artery disease in which a 64-multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) coronary angiography showed the presence of a malignant coronary anomaly. Sixty-four-MDCT with the po...

Early diagnosis and surgical correction is highly important for survival. In the evaluation of TAPVC, imaging methods have been used. Recent advances Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly in which the pulmonary veins fail to connect with the left atrium and connect directly to the right atrium or to one of the systemic veins. Early diagnosis an...

Pseudoaneurysm of lumbar artery is a rare and late complication of penetrating trauma. We report the Doppler ultrasonography and multidetector computed tomography angiography findings and endovascular embolization treatment of a pseudoaneurysm of lumbar artery in a 14-year-old girl following a gunshot wound.
