Vascular lesions of the head and neck include vascular neoplasms, vascular malformations, and hypervascular lesions, derived from nonvascular soft-tissue elements. We retrospectively evaluated magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography images of vascular lesions located in the head and neck. Twelve patients (seven males, five females) aged 1–68 years (mean age, 35.25 years) were included in this study. Most of the vascular lesions in our study were histologically diagnosed. The lesions were as follows: a hemangioma located in the parotid space (n=1); a hemangioendothelioma located in the parotid space (n=1); a hemangiopericytoma located in the larynx (n=1); a juvenile angiofibroma located in the nasopharynx (n=1); a glomus tumor located in the carotid bifurcation (n=1); venous malformations located in the parapharyngeal space, the pterygoid area, the orbital space, and the larynx (n=4); lymphatic malformations located in the parotid space and the supraclavicular area (n=2); and an arteriovenous malformation located in the infratemporal fossa (n=1). We present rare vascular lesions of the head and neck, which have typical radiological findings.
PURPOSE: We aimed to investigate prostate cancer detection rate of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided biopsy and to elucidate possible relations to the number of prior negative transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS)-guided biopsies.
PURPOSE: We aimed to investigate the potential benefits of three-dimensional rotational angiography (3DRA) compared to two-dimensional (2D) roadmapping to visualize the uterine artery (UA) origins during uterine artery embolization (UAE) procedures.
PURPOSE: We aimed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of selective arterial embolization for refractory knee hemarthrosis
PURPOSE: We aimed to detect possible differences in microwave ablation (MWA) volumes after different fluid preinjections using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
In the last decade, advances in the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer have achieved a significant increase in the general and disease-free survival of affected women but have also increased the complexity of therapeutic decisions. The decision-making process requires agreement between the physicians involved in the management of these patients. Radiologists must understand what other physicians expect and inform them about the usefulness of imaging modalities. This review attempts to provide an update on these subjects.
OBJECTIVE. We performed balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration in three consecutive patients with small gastric varices without indwelling balloon catheter occlusion. Foam of 3% sodium tetradecyl sulfate mixed with iodized oil and room air was injected retrograde through the gastrorenal shunt, followed by a thick absorbable gelatin sponge (Gelfoam, Pfizer) plug under only 10-minute balloon occlusion.
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of our study was to analyze the effect of lesion location and morphologic appearance on CT on the positive predictive value (PPV) for malignancy of all extrapulmonary lesions that were 18F-FDG avid on PET/CT and that were biopsied under imaging guidance.
OBJECTIVE. Percutaneous transluminal renal sympathetic denervation is a new treatment of refractory systemic hypertension. The purpose of this study was to assess the clinical utility of MDCT to evaluate the anatomic configuration of the renal arteries in the context of renal sympathetic denervation.
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to determine the frequency of carcinoma identified with secondary presurgical imaging-guided percutaneous biopsy for patients with high-risk pathologic findings at primary percutaneous biopsy.
OBJECTIVE. Ultrasound and ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration play a critical role in the evaluation of thyroid nodules. The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology (TBSRTC) was developed to facilitate communication among cytopathologists, radiologists, and referring physicians. The reporting scheme has rapidly become one of the most important contributions to thyroid nodule management. In this article, we review the significance of the TBSRTC categories and their implications in stratifying risk in the management of thyroid nodules.
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sonography-guided percutaneous core needle liver biopsy in infants and children.
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this article is to retrospectively evaluate the technical and clinical outcomes of large-bore nitinol stents for treating malignant superior vena cava syndrome. In addition, we analyzed factors potentially influencing the outcome.
OBJECTIVE. The objective of our study was to investigate the diagnostic performance of C-arm CT and its value to predict response of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) to trans-catheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) compared with gadoxetic acid–enhanced MRI.
OBJECTIVE. The number of citations an article receives after its publication reflects its impact in the scientific community. The aim of this study was to identify and characterize the 100 top-cited articles published in radiology journals.
