Evaluation of subjective anterior disc space widening on trauma cervical spine CT as a potential sign of ligamentous injury
ConclusionSubjective CT-ADW is a poor predictor of ALL injury as assessed by MRI and should not be relied upon in isolation to diagnose ligamentous injury of the cervical spine in the setting of trauma. (Source: Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology)

Ten ‐year incidence and treatment outcomes of closed degloving injuries (Morel‐Lavallee lesions) in a level 1 trauma centre
ConclusionThe diagnosis of MLL should be considered for soft-tissue swelling in the context of shearing trauma. A variety of management options have been employed, with good overall outcomes. (Source: Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology)

What is the accuracy of transvaginal ultrasound for endometriosis mapping prior to surgery when performed by a sonographer within an outpatient women's imaging centre?
ConclusionSonographers well experienced in obstetric and gynaecological imaging, working in an outpatient women's imaging setting can accurately map DE; however, the performance of soft markers for detection of SE was poor. (Source: Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology)

Impact of iodinated contrast media conserving interventions and lessons for the future
ConclusionInterventions in CT alone, focused on improving patient triage to CECT while avoiding deferment of any outpatient oncology studies, have achieved an approximately two-thirds reduction in ICM consumption. (Source: Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology)

Ewing sarcoma: A pictorial review of typical and atypical locations with reference to the updated 2020 WHO classification system
SummaryEwing sarcoma (ES) is a small round cell sarcoma which usually occurs in the paediatric and young adult age groups. This pictorial review briefly discusses and presents the typical skeletal and extraskeletal locations which ES is encountered, including the metadiaphysis of long bones, pelvis, chest wall and paravertebral regions. Five cases of ES in atypical locations are then presented along with an observation of demographic differences between skeletal and extraskeletal ES. These cases include ES arising from the metatarsal, scapula, breast, intracranial soft tissue and the paranasal sinuses. Presenting symptoms,...

A retrospective multi ‐centre study of splenic volumes measured by CT following splenic artery angioembolisation for high‐grade blunt splenic injuries in adults
ConclusionThis study demonstrated a statistically significant change in splenic volume post angioembolisation in trauma, which was associated with AAST grading but not location of embolisation. The low rate of altered red cell morphology appears transient. (Source: Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology)

A tale of two twists: mesentero ‐axial and organo‐axial sigmoid volvulus
ConclusionThis study has demonstrated that organo-axial sigmoid volvulus may be as common as mesentero-axial volvulus. Distinguishing organo-axial from mesentero-axial volvulus can be achieved on CT, but not on abdominal X-ray. The number of transition points (two for mesentero-axial and one for organo-axial) may be used as a diagnostic feature for differentiating the two forms of volvulus.

Assessment of screen ‐recalled abnormalities for digital breast tomosynthesis versus digital mammography screening in the BreastScreen Maroondah trial
ConclusionAssessment of screen-recalled lesions showed that, compared with DM, DBT found more benign and more malignant lesions, and generally required more procedures except for less additional mammography workup. These findings show that a transition to DBT screening changes the assessment workload. (Source: Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology)

Using national data to model the New Zealand radiation oncology workforce
ConclusionWorkforce models based on robust data collections are an important tool for workforce planning. The RO demand model presented here combines detailed information on treatment and work activities to provide credible estimates that can be used to inform actions on training, recruitment and retention.
