A 51-year old man presented with vertical and torsional diplopia after reduction of a blowout fracture at another hospital one year ago. He had no anormalies of head position and 14 prism diopters (PD) right hypertropia (RHT) in the primary position. In upgaze no vertical deviation was found, and hyperdeviation on downgaze was 35PD. Bielschowsky head tilt test showed a negative response. Distin...

background: this study set out to evaluate the utility of cerebrovascular virtual non-contrast (vnc) scans. materials and methods: conventional non-contrast (cnc) and dual-energy computed tomography angiography (de-cta) head scans were conducted on 100 subjects, of which 46 were normal, 15 had parenchymal hematomas of the brain, 13 had ischemic infarction, 22 had tumors, and 4 had calcified les...

abstract background cerebral neoplasm arises from brain, spinal cord and meningeal cells. not only malignant cerebral neoplasm also benign tumor could lead to death due to mass effect on vital structures. access to these tumors is difficult, and mri and ct scan could be helpful in determining anatomical location of tumors and distinction of malignant from benign. objective for better and earlie...

BACKGROUND The authors describe a new computerized tomography (CT) myelography technique with coronal and oblique coronal view to demonstrate the status of the cervical nerve rootlets involved in brachial plexus injury. They discuss the value of this technique for diagnosis of nerve root avulsion compared with CT myelography with axial view. METHODS CT myelography was performed with penetrati...

The efficacy of radiographic methods in detecting and classifying facial fractures was assessed. Thirty-one patients with maxillofacial trauma were studied with plain radiography, coronal and lateral pluridirectional tomography (PT), and axial and direct coronal computed tomography (CT). PT and CT were compared to assess how many fractures each method could demonstrate. In addition, plain films...

background focused assessment with sonography for trauma (fast) is a precise, non-invasive, and low cost method to assess free abdominal fluid in trauma patients. objective this study assessed the relationship between free intra-abdominal fluid and organ injury in blunt abdominal trauma and designed a scoring system based on fast. patients and methods a total of 200 patients with blunt abdomina...
