Syphilis With Multiple Pulmonary Nodules and Bone Lesions Detected on Computed Tomography and 18F Fluorodeoxyglucose-Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography
Syphilis can cause a wide range of systemic manifestations, such as papular rash, malaise, weight loss, muscle aches, generalized lymphadenopathy, and meningitis. However, pulmonary involvement in patients with secondary syphilis is thought to be relatively rare. Moreover, bone involvement in patients with secondary syphilis is also considered rare, and only a few cases of involvement of lung and bone in such patients have been reported. In this paper, we report a case of secondary syphilis with pulmonary involvement in the form of multiple nodules with low attenuation areas, lymphadenopathy and multiple bone lesions detec...

Magnetic Resonance Imaging Assessment of Right Ventricular Deformation in Patients With Transposition of the Great Arteries
Purpose: To detect changes of right ventricular (RV) myocardial deformation in patients with systemic RV (SRV) and transposition of the great arteries (TGA) as compared with individuals without structural heart disease. Materials and Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of cine steady-state free precession cardiac magnetic resonance imaging sequences acquired using a 1.5 T scanner in short-axis and long-axis views in 25 patients with SRV (16 with atrial switch repair for D-TGA and 9 with congenitally corrected TGA; age range 19 to 68, 13 males). The control group consisted of 25 individuals without st...

Atrial Impairment as a Marker in Discriminating Between Takotsubo and Acute Myocarditis Using Cardiac Magnetic Resonance
Conclusion: Compared with AM, patients with TS showed significantly decreased LA reservoir, conduit strain, and SR parameters. Therefore, LA strain assessment may have a role in discriminating between TS and AM. (Source: Journal of Thoracic Imaging)

Comparison of Triple-Rule-Out Prospectively ECG-triggered Systolic and Diastolic Acquisition Protocol in Patients With Acute Chest Pain
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare image quality and coronary interpretability of triple-rule-out systolic and diastolic protocols in patients with acute chest pain. Materials and Methods: From March 2016 to October 2017 the authors prospectively enrolled patients with undifferentiated acute chest pain, who were at low to intermediate cardiovascular risk. Those with heart rate>75 bpm underwent a systolic prospectively triggered acquisition (systolic triggering [ST]), and in those with ≤75 bpm, end-diastolic triggering (DT) was instead performed. Examinations were evaluated for coronary arter...

Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography–derived Fractional Flow Reserve: An Expert Consensus Document of Chinese Society of Radiology
Invasive fractional flow reserve (FFR) measured by a pressure wire is a reference standard for evaluating functional stenosis in coronary artery disease. Coronary computed tomography angiography–derived fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) uses advanced computational analysis methods to noninvasively obtain FFR results from a single conventional coronary computed tomography angiography data to evaluate the hemodynamic significance of coronary artery disease. More and more evidence has found good correlation between the results of noninvasive CT-FFR and invasive FFR. CT-FFR has proven its potential in optimizing patient manag...
