aortoenteric fistula is a rare but significant clinical entity associated with high morbidity and mortality if remain untreated. clinical presentation and imaging findings may be subtle and prompt diagnosis can be difficult. herein, we present a patient who initially presented with abdominal pain and computed tomography showed an aortic aneurysm compressing duodenum without any air bubbles. one...

ABSTRACTNeuroimaging allows noninvasive evaluation of the anatomy, physiology, and function of the brain. It is widely used for diagnosis, treatment planning, and treatment evaluation of neurological disorders as well as understanding functions of the brain in health and disease. Neuroimaging modalities include X-ray computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), single photon emis...

In this series we present a quiz about identification of salient and important anatomical landmarks present at a given level on the computed tomography (CT) image. The representative image is followed by further images showing examples of various commonly encountered pathologies that can be seen at this level in clinical practice. Readers are expected to identify highlighted structures in all t...

This series comprises of a quiz pertaining to the identification of salient and important anatomical structures and landmarks expected to be seen at a given level on the computed tomography (CT) image. The representativeimage is followed by a series of images showing examples of different commonly encountered pathological entities that can be seen at this level in a routine clinical practice. R...

background: this study assessed the optimal timing of computed tomography for detection of metastatic disease in locoregional lymph nodes in patients with rectal cancer who have undergone chemoradiotherapy. materials and methods: this observational retrospective study was performed in a single institution. all patients with locally advanced rectal cancer treated with chemoradiotherapy, followed...

the purpose of this study was to identify the anatomic structures of the abdominal region of cat throughcomputed tomography (ct) to be used by veterinary radiologists, clinicians and surgeons. the abdominalregion of four cats were scanned twice, with and without using contrast medium in a same position, usinghigh-resolution imaging protocol. slice intervals were 11 mm and were adjusted so that ...

conclusion according to our findings, ct-guided percutaneous drainage is a safe and effective procedure in the treatment of abdominal abscess and fluid collection. results the average age of the patients was 54 years (range 12 to 79), including 21 (51%) men and 20 (49%) women. the common signs and symptoms were pain (83%) and fever (80.5%). the most prevalent abdominal abscess etiology was prev...

introduction: computed tomography (ct) is an imaging technique with gives us an opportunity to review cross sections of the body in live animals. in veterinary medicine although ct is mostly used for diagnostic purposes in small animals, but in recent years ct also has been used as a non invasive modality in non clinical studies. jebeer gazelle (gazella bennettii) is one of the species of the g...

background: methanol is a colorless and poisonous liquid that is commonly used as an industrial and household solvent. methanol poisoning is a rare but extremely hazardous form of in toxication that affects the central nervous system and causes visual disorder, drowsiness, seizures and coma.  case presentation: a 29-years-old man with methanol intoxication presented with drowsiness and acidosis...

This mage-based series comprises of a quiz pertaining to the identification of salient and important anatomical structures and landmarks expected to be seen at a given level on the computed tomography (CT). The representative image is followed by a series of images showing the examples of different commonly encountered pathological entities that can be seen at this level in a routine clinical p...
