Will preoperative combined MRI and high-resolution ultrasonography redefine brachial plexus imaging? A comparative study of preoperative MRI versus combined MRI and high-resolution ultrasonography in assessing usable C5, C6 root-stumps for intra-plexal nerve grafting
To compare the intraoperative findings with the preoperative imaging in detecting usable root stumps using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) alone versus MRI combined with high-resolution ultrasonography (HRUS) in adults undergoing post-traumatic brachial plexus (BP) surgery. Further, when root stumps were present, the reliability of their measurements using both imaging methods was compared to their intraoperative length. (Source: Clinical Radiology)

The thymus: what's normal and what's not? Problem-solving with MRI
Anterior mediastinal masses can be difficult to characterise on computed tomography (CT) due to the wide spectrum of normal appearances of thymic tissue as well as the challenge of differentiating between benign and malignant pathologies. Additionally, attenuation of cystic mediastinal lesions can be misinterpreted on CT due to varying attenuation values. Anecdotally, non-vascular magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the thorax is underutilised across radiology departments in the UK, but has been shown to improve diagnostic certainty and reduce unnecessary surgical intervention.

Ultrasound of pancreatic transplant complications: a primer for radiologists
Pancreatic transplantation is an established treatment for patients with type 1 diabetes patients and select type 2 diabetes patients, with excellent survival rates as graft health is evaluated through regular imaging and early detection of complications.Amongst the various imaging modalities that may aid in diagnosis of pancreatic transplant complications, ultrasound is a widely available, quick, portable, and cost-effective technique, often used as the sole modality to assess for pancreatic transplant complications.
