Introduction: Atypical infratemporal fossa infections are rare and potentially fatal.   Case Report: A case of an aspergillosis localized in the infratemporal fossa and another case of tuberculosis of the infratemporal fossa originating from the maxillary sinus, is described. The first patient was immunocompromised and showed symptoms of facial numbness; whereas the other was an immunocompetent...

Background and Importance: A 60-year-old diabetic man with simultaneous diffuse idiopathic hyperostosis, massive ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament and cervical and higher part of thoracic ligamentum flavum is reported in this article. Such comorbidity rarely occurs. Case Presentation: The patient’s chief complaint was sensation abnormalities without gait disturbance or ...

hemangiomas of the sinonasal tract are rare, and because these lesions lack the typical signs or symptoms, they can be confused with other malignant conditions. we report a case of cavernous hemangioma of the maxillary sinus in a 68-year-old man that was completely resected by endoscopic sinus surgery. although computed tomography (ct) and magnetic resonance imaging (mri) showed several enhanci...

Current advances in targeted magnetic nanotheranostics are summarized in this review. Unique structural, optical, electronic and thermal properties of magnetic materials in nanometer scale are attractive in the field of biomedicine. Magnetic nanoparticles functionalized with therapeutic molecules, ligands for targeted delivery, fluorescent and other chemical agents can be used for cancer diagno...

Cancer is the leading cause of natural death in the pediatric populations of developed countries, yet cure rates are greater than 70% when a cancer is diagnosed in its early stages. Recent advances in magnetic resonance imaging methods have markedly improved diagnostic and therapeutic approaches, while avoiding the risks of ionizing radiation that are associated with most conventional radiologi...

primary non-hodgkin’s lymphoma of the cranial vault is extremely rare. this case report presents a 42-year-old man with a painless subcutaneous scalp mass which extended intracranially associated with recent mild headache. initial computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed two lesions emanating from the skull. biopsy revealed a diagnosis of diffuse large b cell lymphoma (dlbcl)...

symptomatic laryngeal chondrometaplasia is rare. to the best of our knowledge, there are only few case reports on laryngeal chondrometaplasia. the imaging appearance of this uncommon disease is even more rarely described. there are only two case reports describing its appearances in computed tomography (ct) and magnetic resonance imaging (mri). ultrasound (us) features have not been reported so...

In this article, the neuroradiological evaluation of traumatic brain injury is reviewed. Different imaging strategies in the assessment of traumatic brain injury are initially discussed, and this is followed by a review of the imaging characteristics of both primary and secondary brain injuries. Computed tomography remains the modality of choice for the initial assessment of acute head injury b...
