Newest firstBackground: Mechanical lithotripsy is used for difficult common bile duct (CBD) stones, but failure to fragment a grasped stone can complicate endoscopic management. Evidence regarding the association between preprocedural computed tomography (CT) attenuation and mechanical lithotripsy outcome is limited. This study explored the association between CT attenuation of CBD stones and mechanical basket lithotripsy fai…
Open article record in new tab ↗Introduction Common bile duct (CBD) measurements are important for the evaluation of biliary systemic disorders. However, in veterinary medicine, reference ranges for specific body weights (BW) and correlation between CBD diameter and BW have not been studied. This study aimed to establish normal reference ranges of CBD diameter for different BW groups and to analyse correlation between CBD diameter and BW in dogs…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background Primary pancreatic lymphoma (PPL) is a rare neoplasm. Being able to distinguish it from other pancreatic malignancies such as pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is important for appropriate management. Unlike PDAC, PPL is highly sensitive to chemotherapy and usually does not require surgery. Therefore, being able to identify PPL preoperatively will not only direct physicians towards the correct ave…
At the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) congress of this year 2018, held in Munich from August 25th to 29th, 4594 abstracts were presented. Of those, 423 (10.8%) belonged to an imaging category. Experts in echocardiography (VD), cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) (CBD), nuclear imaging (OG), and cardiac computed tomography (CT) (PMH) have selected the abstracts in their areas of expertise that were of mos…
Background/aim To retrospectively assess the accuracy of intravenous (IV) contrast-enhanced multidetector CT (MDCT) in choledocholithiasis detectability, in the presence and absence of positive intraduodenal contrast. Patients and methods Over a 3-year period, patients in whom endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) was performed within a week from a portovenous (PV)-enhanced abdominal CT were identi…
