Determining the normal effective diameter of thoracic aorta in pediatric population of India
Conclusions: We have established normative effective diameters of the thoracic aorta at multiple levels in Indian children of different age groups. Measurements outside of the normal ranges are indicators of ectasia, aneurysm, hypoplasia, or stenosis. (Source: Indian Journal of Radiology and Imaging)

Correlation of asthma severity, IgE level, and spirometry results with HRCT findings in allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis
Conclusions: Asthma severity, specific IgE level, and MEF values showed a good correlation with HRCT findings. The restrictive pattern is common on spirometry in patients of ABPA. In addition to central bronchiectasis, peripheral bronchial and small airway involvement was an important finding in ABPA. Expiratory HRCT may reveal air trapping in patients having no abnormality on inspiratory CT. (Source: Indian Journal of Radiology and Imaging)

Analysis of factors influencing accuracy of ultrasound-based fetal weight estimation
Conclusion: All the studied clinical factors were found to have a limited impact on the overall accuracy of fetal weight estimation. However, the formula selection was found to have a significant impact on the accuracy, with the native population-based formulas being significantly more accurate.

Imaging in congenital inner ear malformations & #8212;An algorithmic approach
Abhinav C Bhagat, Jyoti Kumar, Anju Garg, Anjali Prakash, Ravi Meher, Shivali AryaIndian Journal of Radiology and Imaging 2020 30(2):139-148 Malformations of the inner ear are an important cause of congenital deaf-mutism. Arrest in embryologic development of inner ear during various stages gives rise to the variety of malformations encountered. Current treatment options include hearing aids, cochlear implants, and auditory brainstem implants (ABI). With the advent of cochlear implant surgery and ABI, decent functional outcomes can be obtained provided such cases are diagnosed correctly and timely. To that end, high-resolu...

MR evaluation of tongue carcinoma in the assessment of depth of invasion with histopathological correlation: A single center experience
Conclusion: MRI is the imaging modality of choice for evaluation of tongue carcinoma as MRI helps in accurate staging of the tumor using TNM classification which is crucial for optimizing treatment options. The current study shows a high correlation between MRI and histopathological findings regarding thickness of tumor and depth of invasion. MRI and histopathology assessments of tumor spread were equivalent to within 0.5 mm DOI. Estimation of invasion depth using MRI as a preoperative study in oral tongue carcinoma is essential in planning surgical treatment strategies such as the extent of elective neck dissection. Invas...

Cranial nerve schwannoma & #8211; A pictorial essay
Sivaramalingam Geethapriya, Jayaraj Govindaraj, Bagyam Raghavan, Banupriya Ramakrishnan, Rasheed Arafath, Sathyashree Vishwanathan, Murali KrishnaIndian Journal of Radiology and Imaging 2020 30(2):116-125 Schwannomas are peripheral nerve sheath tumours arising from cranial, spinal or peripheral nerves. Most of the schwannomas are benign with the rare possibility of malignant transformation. Cranial nerve schwannomas can be seen along the course of any cranial nerve in the intracranial region or head and neck location. Although a majority are solitary sporadic lesions, multiple schwannomas can be seen in syndromes like neu...

Accuracy of radiologists, nonradiologists, and laypeople for identifying children with cerebral cortical atrophy from & #8220;Mercator map & #8221; curved reconstructions of MRIs of the brain
Conclusion: The high specificity and sensitivity of radiologists validated the technique for distinguishing abnormal scans, regarding cortical pathology. High specificity of laypeople for identifying abnormal brains using Mercator maps indicates that this is a viable communication tool for demonstrating cortical MRI abnormalities of HII in children to laypersons.
