Computed Tomography in the Diagnosis of Lesions in and Around the Saddle Area
Computed tomography is the method of choice for initial evaluation of pa tints with potential suprasellar masses. In our experience during the last 2 years C.T. has proved reliable for detecting or rulling out the presence of a suprasellar mass. It shows the direction and degree of parasellar extension and the presence of any calcific or cystic component of the lesion. When C.T. was negat...
متن کاملHigh-resolution computed tomography for the diagnosis of community-acquired pneumonia.
We compared high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) with chest radiography (CR) to determine if there is any advantage to using HRCT in the diagnosis of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). Simultaneously obtained chest radiographs were compared with HRCT scans for 47 patients with clinical symptoms and signs suspicious for CAP, HRCT identified all 18 CAP cases (38.3%) apparent on radiographs...
متن کاملA comparative evaluation of cone-beam computed tomography and multi-slice computed tomography in the diagnosis of sheep mandibular bone defect: an in vitro study
Introduction: Diagnosis of lesions and bone defects is very important and there is a lack of substantial studies on the most appropriate method for bone defect measurement. Hence, the aim of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in the diagnosis of mandibular bone defects present in sheep. Material & Methods: T...
متن کاملComputed tomography in the diagnosis of retinoblastoma.
The role of orbital computed tomography (CT) in the management of retinoblastoma is reviewed. All 21 patients with retinoblastoma studied with high-resolution computed tomography had intraocular calcification demonstrable in at least one eye. 83% of tumours showed evidence of calcification on CT scan. The degree of calcification appeared to depend on tumour size; only small tumours were devoid ...
