INTRODUCTION Therapeutic strategies for intramural hematoma (IMH) involving the ascending aorta remain controversial. REPORT The patient was a 72 year old woman with a history of chest pain. Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) showed an IMH involving the ascending aorta. Because virtual angioscopy revealed a punctate intimal tear in the ascending aorta, acute aortic dissection with an in...

We present a case of urinary tuberculosis investigated initially by ultrasound and multidetector computed tomography (MDCT). The MDCT-derived volumetric data were used to generate virtual cystoscopy (VC) images, which revealed a bladder ulcer. The presence of this ulcer was confirmed by conventional cystoscopy-guided biopsy and there was good agreement regarding various features of the ulcer, s...

Purpose: To compare multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) angiography &colour flow imaging (USG)in evaluation of patients with peripheral arterialdiseases. Also evaluate the role MDCT in providing information regarding collateral circulation in peripheral arterial diseases and aiding treatment planning in peripheral arterial diseases. Material and methods: CT angiography performed with “Bril...

Aim: This article aims to investigate the degree and frequency of atherosclerosis using “Coronary Artery Disease Reporting Data System” (CAD-RADS) classification in patients who underwent coronary Multidetector Computed Tomography (MDCT) Angiography with a preliminary diagnosis artery disease were found have aneurysm (CAA) also discuss predisposing factors, prevalence, diagnostic criteria compl...

Objective: To determine the diagnostic accuracy of multidetector computed tomography in detection esophageal varices patients with hrpatic cirrhosis. Study Design: Cross Sectional study. Setting: Department Diagnostic Radiology, Kot Khawaja Saeed Teaching Hospital, Lahore. Period: January, 2021 to July, 2021. Material & Methods: Two hundred seventy five diagnosed liver cirrhosis were includ...

AIM To compare the accuracy of digital radiography (DR), multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) in detecting vertical root fractures (VRF) in the absence and presence of gutta-percha root filling. METHODOLOGY The root canals of 100 extracted human single-rooted teeth were prepared and randomly divided into four groups: two experimental groups with ar...

OBJECTIVE to evaluate the impact of the new technology of multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) in improving the accuracy and early diagnosis of BSBI. METHODS patients with blunt small bowel injuries (BSBI) grade> I were identified retrospectively and their CT scans reviewed by an experienced radiologist. Clinical and tomographic findings were analyzed and patients grouped as "pre-MDCT" an...

Background: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the vascular and ureteric anomalies associated with ectopic kidneys multidetector computed tomography (MDCT). Methods: 40 patients pre-diagnosed kidney undergoing MDCT urography (Contrast study) KUB (Plain were included in cross-sectional observational study. location number bilateral assessed. origin renal arteries veins noted. Their relatio...

Multidetector Computed Tomography (MDCT) technology plays an important role in the evaluation of injured patients. At our institution pelvic X-ray (PXR) is obtained routinely on trauma patients. Many also receive MDCT of the abdomen and pelvis for other indications. We hypothesized that there would be a substantial cost savings in adopting a policy of deferring PXR in a hemodynamically normal p...

PURPOSE The SYNTAX Score (SS) has an important role in grading the complexity of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients undergoing revascularization. Noninvasive determination of SS prior to invasive coronary angiography (ICA) might optimize patient management. We aimed to evaluate the agreement between ICA and multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) while testing the diagnostic effectivene...
