background and objectives: nodular lesions of liver are usually neoplastic (primary or metastatic), although inflammatory lesions can occur. the objectives of this paper were to study the cytomorphological changes in various nodular lesions of liver and to correlate the cytomorphological findings with biochemical parameters especially serum alpha-fetoprotein. materials & methods:  a cross-...

a 49 year old man with previous history of colectomy for colon cancer was referred to our department for further evaluation of suspicious hepatic lesions noticed during an abdominal ct scan. 99mtc-rbc scan revealed multiple hot spots in the region of the liver, correlating to the ct and liver-spleen scan. further follow-ups of the patient revealed no remarkable change in the size or number of t...

background and objectives: multiple sclerosis is an inflammatory disease of the central nervous system. this is due to migration of peripherally activated lymphocytes to central nervous system leading to inflammatory lesions. however, liver has an anti-inflammatory microenvironment. myelin expression in the liver of transgenic mice suppresses inflammatory lesions within central nervous system. ...

we report a case of a 75-year old man that came at hematologist’s attention for lymphoma evaluation due to axillary lymph node enlargement and fever. thorax, abdomen and pelvis contrast-enhanced computed tomography (cect) showed lymph nodes, spleen and liver lesions. axillary lymph node biopsy was performed and the diagnosis of marginal zone lymphoma (mzl) at stage iv was postulated, then the p...

99mTc-octreotide scintigraphy, performed during the following up a 58-year old man with neuroendocrine tumor demonstrated massive hepatomegaly demonstrating multiple areas of increased and decreased uptake. Due to severe hepatomegaly concurrence of any other abdominal soft tissue lesions could not be excluded. A 99mTc-sulfur colloid scan was done and thoroughly compared wi...
