Background: The correlation between AAA and carotid artery plaque is unknown and a common etiology and pathophysiology is suspected by some authors. The purpose of this work was to explore the association between the features of a) carotid artery plaque and b) abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) plaques using multi-detector-CT Angiography (MDCTA). Methods: Forty-eight (32 males; median age 72 years...
OBJECTIVES Left atrial appendage (LAA) dilatation and morphology may influence an individual's risk for intracardiac thrombi and ischemic stroke. LAA size and morphology can be evaluated using cardiac computed tomography (cCT). The present study evaluated the reproducibility of LAA volume and morphology assessments. METHODS A total of 149 patients (47 females; mean age 60.9±10.6 years) with s...
Morphological analysis of the scoliotic spine is based on two-dimensional X-rays: coronal and sagittal. The three-dimensional character of scoliosis has raised the necessity for analyzing scoliosis in three planes. We proposed a new user-friendly method of graphical presentation of the spine in the third plane–the Spine Axial Presentation (SAP). Eighty-five vertebrae of patients with scoliosis ...
BACKGROUND Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) is an important indicator in pediatric heart transplant patients, but commonly used noninvasive surrogates, such as ratio of early diastolic mitral inflow velocity to annular velocity (E/E'), have limitations in this population. This study aimed to evaluate the relation of left atrial (LA) peak systolic strain and distensibility with PCWP in ...
PURPOSE To determine if qualitatively defining the appearance of optic disc change was a valid characteristic of myopia in subjects with Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO) or primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). METHODS WE DEFINED TYPICAL TILT APPEARANCE AS THE SIMULTANEOUS PRESENCE OF THE FOLLOWING: an elliptical optic disc, a crescent, unequal sharpness of the cupping margin (horizontally), and nas...
BACKGROUND/AIMS Grading of Helicobacter pylori induced atrophic gastritis using the updated Sydney system is severely limited by high interobserver variability. The aim of this study was to set up a quantitative test of gastric corpus mucosal atrophy in tissue sections and test its reproducibility and correlation with the Sydney scores of atrophy. METHOD Mucosal atrophy was assessed in 124 ha...
Introduction: Understanding the anatomical and pathological relationships between posterior teeth or edentulous area with maxillary sinus is essential for diagnosis and treatment management.The present study aimed to assess the relationship between maxillary sinus floor and posterior teeth roots using panoramic radiography and Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT). Materials and Methods: In thi...
PURPOSE To assess the intra- and inter-operator variability of the manual planning of cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging and to evaluate the influence of these factors on the functional parameters of the left ventricle (LV). METHOD The study population consisted of 10 healthy volunteers. For each subject the manual planning of the short-axis cine acquisitions was carried out twice by o...
BACKGROUND Feature tracking software offers measurements of myocardial strain, velocities and displacement from cine cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) images. We used it to record deformation parameters in healthy adults and compared values to those obtained by tagging. METHODS We used TomTec 2D Cardiac Performance Analysis software to derive global, regional and segmental myocardial de...
Colorectal adenocarcinoma originating in intestinal glandular structures is the most common form of colon cancer. In clinical practice, the morphology of intestinal glands, including architectural appearance and glandular formation, is used by pathologists to inform prognosis and plan the treatment of individual patients. However, achieving good inter-observer as well as intra-observer reproduc...
