& #8220;Radiographic demonstration of association of ubernaculum Dentis(Gubernaculum tract) in odontogenic cysts and tumors & #8221;-A CBCT finding
Nagaraju Kamarthi, Dhruvesh Gupta, Suhasini Palakshappa GoturIndian Journal of Radiology and Imaging 2020 30(3):340-343 Spectrum of lesions that occur in the jaws have a cyst-like radiographic appearance. These lesions may be odontogenic or non-odontogenic and are often difficult to differentiate them on the basis of their clinical, radiographic features alone. Among odontogenic lesions without mineralization, ameloblastomas, odontogenic keratocysts, and dentigerous cysts can all appear as well-defined, unilocular, well-corticated, lucent lesions that can mimic with non-odontogenic cysts and tumors like nasopalatine duct ...

Dynamic manoeuvres on MRI in oral cancers & #8211; A pictorial essay
Diva ShahIndian Journal of Radiology and Imaging 2020 30(3):334-339 Magnetic resonance imaging has been shown to be a useful tool in the evaluation of oral malignancies because of direct visualization of lesions due to high soft tissue contrast and multiplanar capability. However, small oral cavity tumours pose an imaging challenge due to apposed mucosal surfaces of oral cavity, metallic denture artefacts and submucosal fibrosis. The purpose of this pictorial essay is to show the benefits of pre and post contrast MRI sequences using various dynamic manoeuvres that serve as key sequences in the evaluation of various small ...

Zuska & #39;s breast disease: Breast imaging findings and histopathologic overview
Luis F Serrano, MarÍa M Rojas-Rojas, Fedel A MachadoIndian Journal of Radiology and Imaging 2020 30(3):327-333 Zuska's disease describes the clinical condition of recurrent central or periareolar nonpuerperal abscesses associated with lactiferous fistulas. Pathogenesis involves the occlusion of an abnormal duct through an epithelial desquamation process that causes ductal dilatation, stasis of secretions, and periductal inflammation. Patients with Zuska's disease may develop chronic draining sinuses near the areola from lactiferous ducts fistula; therefore, the underlying abnormal duct sy...

PET-CT upstaging of unilateral operable breast cancer and its correlation with molecular subtypes
Conclusions: FDG PET-CT is a substantial modality to provide information on regional, non regional lymph nodes and distant metastases in early operable breast cancer.It helps in evaluating the whole body metastatic burden in a single sitting, therefore, reducing the need for multiple investigations.SUVmax association of the index lesion with molecular subtype in the FDG PET scanning can serve as a prognostication factor in operable early breast cancer patients.

Prospective revalidation of IOTA & #8220;two-step & #8221;, & #8220;alternative two-step & #8221; and & #8220;three-step & #8221; strategies for characterization of adnexal masses & #8211; An Indian study focussing the radiology context
Conclusion: All IOTA strategies showed good diagnostic performance for characterization of adnexal masses and the “three-step” strategy performed best. We believe this is the first ever prospective re-validation and comparative evaluation of all three IOTA strategies by Indian Radiologists. Since ultrasound is the primary modality for evaluation of adnexal masses, based on the good results of our study, a recommendation for henceforth standard application, of the three-step IOTA strategy in routine Radiology practice appears justified. Although, IOTA strategies been proposed and validated mainly...

Comparative analysis and assessment of diagnostic accuracy of 256 slice CT and endoscopic ultrasound in evaluation of pancreatic masses
Surabhi Gupta, Sunil K PuriIndian Journal of Radiology and Imaging 2020 30(3):294-303 Context: Pancreatic masses are routinely encountered on imaging and often present as a diagnostic dilemma. These masses range from benign inflammatory masses, requiring no intervention to malignant masses, which carry grave prognosis and hence require aggressive management. Aims: Compare the diagnostic accuracy of 256 multislice CT and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) in characterization and assessment of resectability of pancreatic masses and compare the multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) and EUS findings with histopathological findi...

Pial arteriovenous fistula: A clinical and neuro-interventional experience of outcomes in a rare entity
Conclusions: PAVF are rare intracranial vascular malformations which can effectively be managed endovascularly with liquid embolic, coils alone, or in combination. Complete occlusion of the fistula can be achieved in most cases in a single sitting with a reasonable morbidity related to the procedure, compared with the natural history of this disease.

Imaging spectrum of pulmonary infections in renal transplant patients
Zohra Ahmad, Soumita Bagchi, Priyanka Naranje, SK Agarwal, Chandan J DasIndian Journal of Radiology and Imaging 2020 30(3):273-279 In the post renal transplant setting, pulmonary infections comprise an important set of complications. Microbiological diagnosis although specific is often delayed and insensitive. Radiography is the most common and first imaging test for which patient is referred, however it is relatively insensitive. HRCT is a very useful imaging tool in the scenario where radiography is negative or inconclusive and high clinical suspicion for infection is present. HRCT features vary among the various pathog...

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumours of the thorax: Radiologic and clinicopathological correlation
Conclusions: Thoracic IMT presents with some distinct clinical and CT findings in adults and children. The CT findings and management options have implications for prognosis. If resectable, lobectomy is a better option than wedge resection or bronchoscopic excision for preventing local recurrence and metastasis. IMT can undergo malignant transformation.

Evaluation of spinopelvic parameters in lumbar prolapsed intervertebral disc
Conclusion: Standing lateral view radiograph from dorso-lumbar junction to the mid-thigh is as good as standing whole spine radiograph for measurement of spinopelvic parameters. Degenerative spondylolisthesis at L4L5 has a statistically significant correlation with an increase in SS. (Source: Indian Journal of Radiology and Imaging)
