The Lisfranc Joint: Multimodality Imaging to Avoid Missteps in the Diagnosis of Acute Injuries
Named after Jacques Lisfranc de St. Martin (1790–1847), a French surgeon in Napoleon's army who described amputations through the tarsometatarsal joint, the Lisfranc joint is the junction between the midfoot and the forefoot and represents a complex articulation composed of nine bones: the five metatarsal bases, the three cuneiforms, and the cuboid. The stability of the Lisfranc joint depends largely on its bony architecture and ligamentous integrity, with additional support provided by the peroneus longus, anterior tibialis, and posterior tibialis tendons; the long plantar ligament; the plantar fascia; and the intrinsic...

Unexpected Findings on Cholescintigraphy Beyond Cholecystitis
The hepatobiliary iminodiacetic acid (HIDA) scan is a nuclear medicine study used in the evaluation of hepatocellular function and the patency of the biliary tree. The primary indications for a HIDA scan include evaluation for cholecystitis, obstruction of the biliary tract, and biliary leak. The radiopharmaceutical used is disofenin or mebrofenin labeled with technetium-99m (Tc-99m), administered intravenously. (Source: Contemporary Diagnostic Radiology)

Patterns of Bone Marrow Edema on MRI: Clues to Underlying Pathology
Bone marrow edema is seen commonly in clinical practice. There are patterns of bone marrow edema on MRI that can help radiologists arrive at the correct diagnosis or provide a short list of differential diagnoses. In this article, we discuss and provide examples of common patterns of bone marrow edema on MRI. (Source: Contemporary Diagnostic Radiology)

Papillary Lesions of the Breast: What the Radiologist Should Know
Papillary lesions of the breast encompass a wide spectrum of benign and malignant lesions that arise from the ductal epithelium. These lesions comprise less than 10% of benign breast lesions, less than 2% of breast cancers, and less than 5% of all breast biopsies.1 It may be challenging to diagnose a papillary lesion as benign or malignant prospectively, given the considerable overlap in imaging features. Although imaging features may be similar, each pathologic entity has a unique biologic behavior. This CME activity reviews the common imaging features of papillary lesions of the breast, with emphasis on which imaging fea...
