Introduction  Cryoablation is the destruction of living tissue by the application of extreme freezing temperature. There has been an increase in the use of cryoablation in the management of musculoskeletal lesions, in particular fibromatosis. Aim  This study aimed to measure the average and relative increase in size of the cryoablation ice ball after the first (10 minutes) and second freeze cycles (20 minutes) to accurately predict the size of the ice ball between first and second freezes to help prevent any unwanted damage of the nearby skin and neurovascular structures...

Zika is a flavivirus that is transmitted primarily by the bite of an infected Aedes mosquito. It can also be transmitted by blood transfusion, sexual contact, and from an infected mother to the unborn baby. Zika virus infection is of particular concern in pregnancy as transplacental transmission of the virus has the potential to cause significant fetal morbidity. Ultrasonography plays a pivotal role in the fetal surveillance of a pregnant woman infected with Zika. There have been outbreaks of Zika virus infection in various parts of India, the most recent occurring in Kanpur in November 2021...

Introduction  A unilateral or bilateral pars interarticularis defect (spondylolysis) is a leading cause of axial back pain in adolescent athletes. Currently, a spectrum of imaging modalities is used for assessment of pars interarticularis defects. Objectives  The aim of this study is to compare the accuracy of chemical shift sequence (magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]) technique to conventional MRI sequences in the detection of pars defects. Patients and Methods  Conventional T1, T2, and short tau inversion recovery sagittal and axial, as well as "in-" and "out-" phase chemical shift sagittal MRI sequences of 70 consecutive patients referred for low back pain were reviewed...

Background  Pneumothorax is the most common complication of computed tomography (CT)-guided lung biopsy. The asymptomatic rate ranges from 17.5 to 72%. The symptomatic rate requiring chest tube insertion is 6 to 18%. Aims  This article studies the role of management of postbiopsy pneumothoraces by needle aspiration and pigtail catheter insertion. Methods  This was a prospective observational study conducted over 2 years. Postbiopsy and prior to withdrawing the coaxial cannula a CT data set was obtained to detect and quantify pneumothoraces as mild, moderate, and severe...

We used the data collection experience of the initial 3 years of Samrakshan to develop a live dashboard for individual practitioners to examine diagnostic and performance metrics in real-time and to assess trends. The dashboard was created in MS Excel (Microsoft 365 MSO version 2209) and the output provides useful information on actionable items like compliance with low-dose aspirin and estimates of preterm and term pre-eclampsia and fetal growth restriction, congenital anomalies, the proportion of preterm births, and perinatal mortality estimates...

Background  There are very few studies on the association between fetal epicardial fat thickness (EFT) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Aims  To evaluate the role of fetal epicardial fat thickness as a marker and use it in pregnancies to screen for GDM. Settings and Design  A cross-sectional analytical study was conducted in the Department of Radiodiagnosis and Imaging at Sri Guru Ram Das Institute of Medical Sciences and Research, Amritsar, after the due clearance from the institutional research and ethics committee...

Background  Glioma is a primary, malignant, highly aggressive brain tumor, with patients having an average life expectancy of 14 to 16 months after diagnosis. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of these patients can be used to extract and analyze quantifiable features with potential clinical significance. We hypothesize that there is a correlation between radiomic features extracted from MRI scans and survival. Along with clinical data, the radiomic features could be used in survival prediction of patients, providing beneficial information for clinicians to design personalized treatment plans...

Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) is a common, life-threatening opportunistic fungal infection seen in susceptible individuals especially those admitted in critical care units. Multiple guidelines have been promulgated for the diagnosis of IPA, some of which are all inclusive, while others cater to specific patient groups. Microbiology forms the crux of the majority of the diagnostic tests/criteria; however, results take a considerable amount of time. Radiology can play an important role by bridging the gap to reach at an early diagnosis...

Background  Radiology is among India's top five speciality choices pursued by meritorious medical graduates. With the advent of the subspecialization degree courses, fellowships, the requirement of senior residency as faculty eligibility criteria, and the lucrative option of private practice, the final-year postgraduates are given opportunities to choose from but with little guidance on what and how to choose. This study aims to analyze the views of the final-year radiology postgraduate residents in India regarding their understanding of how to proceed in their professional life with options available...

Achilles tendon xanthoma is a benign and rare disease with a high incidence in patients having familial hypercholesterolemia. Patients present with or without pain and thickened tendons. Gout is seen in patients with hyperuricemia. Coexistence of xanthoma and gout is extremely rare. We searched the PubMed literature with 'Xanthoma' and 'Gout' as keywords and could find only one case report. Imaging modalities such as radiography and ultrasonography, play a vital role in diagnosing this condition early, hence helping the patient to commence the use of potentially lifesaving lipid-lowering therapeutic agents...

Background  The inguinal region is an area of complex anatomy that could contain diverse uncommon contents in routine clinical practice. Although inguinal hernia repair is one of the commonest surgeries done routinely, thorough preoperative imaging has a significant impact on the outcome of the surgery, by revealing the presence of unusual contents in the inguinal region. Aim  The aim of this article is to review the differential diagnosis of the uncommon inguinal pathologies, which can simulate an inguinal hernia, to determine, and to simplify the treatment approach...

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver malignancy, and liver transplantation is usually curative. HCC recurrences are rare after curative treatment options, although they are prevalent depending on various risk factors. We present a 71-year-old female patient with an unusual pattern of disease progression following a curative liver transplant with a metastatic presentation in the absence of alpha-fetoprotein elevation after 3 years of disease-free clinical presentation. We present this case to emphasize the importance of intermittent cross-sectional imaging in addition to ultrasound screening in HCC surveillance...

The recommendations from the Society of Chest Imaging and Interventions expert group comprehensively cover all the aspects of management of hemoptysis, highlighting the role of diagnostic and interventional radiology. The diversity existing in etiopathology, imaging findings, and management of hemoptysis has been addressed. The management algorithm recommends the options for effective treatment while minimizing the chances of recurrence, based on the best evidence available and opinion from the experts.

Biliary fistula and bile leak are known complications following hepatobiliary surgery, trauma, and percutaneous biliary interventions. In the case of an isolated biliary system with a prolonged indwelling percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) catheter, a biliary-cutaneous fistula (BCF) may develop after catheter blockage or its accidental slippage. Due to the absence of internal drainage, secreted bile flows through the matured PTBD tract to form a fistula. If left untreated, chronic BCF will result in malabsorption, infection, and delayed wound healing...

Purpose  The effects of weight bearing on lumbar spinal canal dimensions are not well reported the low back pain (LBP) literature. Since axial loading induces changes in anatomical configuration of the lumbar spine, supine spine imaging may not uncover dimensional changes associated with physiological weight bearing that could be demonstrated in imaging in the upright position. Methods  This study compared anteroposterior spinal canal dimensions measured at the level of the intervertebral discs in the supine and upright lumbar spine magnetic resonance images in adults without a history or current back pain...
