Traumatic diaphragmatic rupture remains a diagnostic challenge for both radiologists and surgeons. In recent years, multidetector CT has markedly improved the diagnosis of diaphragmatic injury in polytrauma patients. Herein, we describe two cases of subacute presentation of traumatic diaphragmatic rupture from a penetrating rib fracture and subsequent intrathoracic herniation of omental fat, re...

A new calibration method, applicable to multidetector telescopes, is presented. This method is based on the comparison between experimental data and the ones obtained from Monte-Carlo simulation. The method just needs a accurate knowledgment of the detector spectrum. To test the method, data obtained in GANIL accelerator, are used. Obtained results are presented and the method accuracy is concl...

We present ROMA, a parallel code to produce joint optimal temperature and polarisation maps out of multidetector CMB observations. ROMA is a fast, accurate and robust implementation of the iterative generalised least squares approach to map-making. We benchmark ROMA on realistic simulated data from the last, polarisation sensitive, flight of BOOMERanG.

Prompt diagnosis of acute mesenteric ischemia is a dilemma which is unfortunately generally made at the irreversible phase of intestinal damage. Besides conventional diagnostic imaging modalities contrast enhanced multidetector computed tomography angiography enables fast and detailed evaluation of the mesenteric circulation and abdominal viscera which provides accurate and rapid diagnosis in t...

Highlights . Non-invasive method for the assessment of mobility and deformation wire element bioprosthesis in cardiac cycle based on developed mathematical algorithm is presented. Numerical analysis behavior “TiAra” shown first time. The can be used other medical devices as well. Aim To develop a non-invasive aortic heart valve processing visual data. Methods Multidetector computed tomography d...

We present the computed tomography (CT) imaging findings of a 44-year-old male with incidentally discovered right adrenal hemangioma displaying imaging pattern of nonadenomatous pattern, associated with multiple hepatic hemangiomata using 64-slice multidetector scanner with reviewing published CT imaging findings with short review of the literature.

A quadricuspid aortic valve is rare and often incidentally found by echocardiography, surgically, or on post mortem examination. Aortic regurgitation is common and if severe enough can lead to symptoms of dyspnea. We report a case of a quadricuspid aortic valve, which was found by cardiac multidetector computed tomography during a pre-operative assessment for severe aortic regurgitation.

The electron microscope has been a multipurpose tool for many of the basic sciences, but its practical application in industry is only now being considered. This review article examines the basic techniques employed in electron microscopy and the basic functioning of the instrument with respect to recent multidetector analyses. Past, present, and future uses of the instrument in the brewing ind...

In this report, we describe a patient with a subvalvular membrane on the left ventricular outflow tract. Discrete subvalvular membrane is a cause of left ventricular outflow tract narrowing. Multidetector computerised tomography can demonstrate the anatomical three-dimensional view of this region and guide for surgery.

Introduction Development of whole-body multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) methods have the potential to allow investigations into relations between feline osteoarthritis (OA) and obesity. In one MDCT examination all joints in an animal and the total body fat content can be evaluated. However, studies investigating the correlation between presence of joint lesions detected by MDCT and macr...
