CT and ultrasound in abscess detection at specific anatomic sites: A study of 198 patients
(Elsevier, 1987)
Records of 902 patients with possible abdominal abscess were reviewed and of these 198 had abscesses on at least one occasion imaged either with ultrasound (US) or computed tomography (CT). There were 235 episodes of either ...
CT evaluation of mediastinal masses
(Elsevier, 1987)
CT is an important modality for imaging mediastinal masses, and certain CT attenuation features (fat, calcium, or water attenuation, contrast enhancement) are well known to suggest specific diagnoses. In a series of 132 ...
CT evaluation of the equivocal pulmonary nodule
(Elsevier, 1987)
In the setting of a questionable pulmonary nodule demonstrated by conventional radiographs, the place of CT in the diagnostic algorithm is not well established. We reviewed our experience in 50 consecutive patients referred ...
Toxicity from treatment of neuroblastoma with 131 I-meta-iodobenzylguanidine
(Springer-Verlag, 1988-09)
Toxic effects from 131 I-meta-iodobenzylguanidine ( 131 I-MIBG) treatments of neuroblastoma in six patients were recorded. The toxicity was largely confined to the hematologic system where circulating leukocytes and platelets ...
CT of unusual mediastinal vascular abnormalities
(Elsevier, 1984)
The previously unreported CT findings of supracardiac anomalous pulmonary venous return and Takayasu arteritis are presented. CT demonstration of a left vertical vein and an enlarged superior vena cava strongly suggests a ...
ω- 123 I-Hexadecanoic acid metabolic probe of cardiomypathy
(Springer-Verlag, 1985-03)
The utility of ω- 123 I-hexadecanoic acid myocardial scintigraphy as a metabolic probe of cardiomyopathies was investigated. Sixteen patients with a variety of cardiomyopathies and myopathies that involve cardiac muscle ...
Computed tomography of malignant tumors of the osseous pelvis
(Elsevier, 1983)
The medical records, conventional radiographs, bone scans and pelvic CT scans obtained in 50 consecutive patients with malignant lesions involving the osseous pelvis were retrospestively reviewed. In 21 patients with primary ...
Scintigraphic detection of sinusitis
(Springer-Verlag, 1988-11)
Radionuclide scintigraphy is useful in the diagnosis of sinusitis. Three cases are described, using different radionuclide agents ( 99m Tc-MDP, 67 Ga-citrate and 111 Inleukocytes) in which sinusitis was discovered, though ...
Magnetic resonance imaging of systemic venous anomalies
(Elsevier, 1986)
Seven cases of anomalous development of the systemic great veins were found in the first 18 months of adult body imaging with a 0.15 T resistive magnetic resonance unit. Comparison was made with CT. In most cases, CT and ...
CT findings of hypervascular malignant peritoneal mesothelioma
(Elsevier, 1987)
A case of peritoneal mesothelioma is presented in which CT demonstrated abnormal regions of increased vascularity in the omentum corresponding to hypervascular omental lesions shown by angiography. This CT appearance has ...
