AbstractAnatomy is the key to accurate imaging interpretation. It is essential for radiologists to thoroughly understand the normal anatomy and spatial relationships of the stomach and duodenum to accurately localize the site of abnormality. In this article, we describe in detail the gross and applied radiological anatomy of the stomach and duodenum, and the current role of various radiological investigations (including barium studies, endoscopic ultrasonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging) in the evaluation of the diseases involving the stomach and duodenum.

Abstract Background Pancreatic cystic lesions are increasingly identified in persons undergoing abdominal imaging. Serous cystic neoplasms (SCNs) have a very low risk of malignant transformation. Resection of SCNs is not recommended in the absence of related symptoms. The accuracy of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to identify SCNs is not known and may impact clinical care. Aims To evaluate the accuracy of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the diagnosis of SCN. To see how this can impact the decision to resect suspected SCNs. Methods Retrospective cohort study of patients from the University Health Network with suspected SCNs from 2017–2020 who underwent either a CT or MRI of the abdomen. Reports noting pancreatic cystic lesions were identified and reviewed. Only cases with suspected SCNs were included. Clinical (age, sex, symptoms, treatment) and radiographic (type of imaging, reported cyst characteristics) data was collected. Pathology was reviewed for all cases where the cysts was biopsied or resected during follow-up. The gold standard for the diagnosis for SCN was pathology of resected specimen or EUS-guided biopsy cytopathology showing no evidence of a mucinous lesion, CEA level below 10ug per L and amylase level below 50 U/L. Results 163 patients were included in the study. 99 (61%) were female and 98 (60%) underwent CT scan. EUS-guided biopsy was performed in 24 (15%) of patients and 8 (5%) had surgical resection. Multidisciplinary review was performed in 6 of the 8 cases that went to surgery. Of the resected specimens, 5 (63%) were SCN, 1 was a mucinous cystic lesion, 1 was a neuroendocrine tumor and 1 was a carcinoma. Two patients underwent EUS evaluation prior to surgical resection. In one case SCN was resected when EUS reported an undetermined cyst type. Reasons for surgical resection were: the diagnosis of serous cyst was not definitive (n=5), symptoms (n=2), and high-risk mucinous cystic neoplasm identified on EUS (n=1). Of 30 patients with pathology available, 15 (50%) were confirmed to have a SCN. CT and MRI had a sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of 93%, 25%, 52% and 80%, respectively. Conclusions Surgical resection for SCN lesions is driven by diagnostic uncertainty after cross-sectional imaging. Multidisciplinary review and EUS evaluation may improve diagnostic accuracy and should be considered prior to surgical resection of possible SCN lesions. Funding Agencies None

Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are enabling more precise diagnosis and treatment planning in patients with diseases of the larynx. The aim of this article is to describe the role of these methods in assessment of the laringeal diseases and key local anatomic characteristics important for spread of the disease. CT and MRI have a valuable contribution to the staging of the tumors due to the possibility to show the relationship to the ventricular complex, involvement of the subumucosal spaces, defining craniocaudal and anterposterior extension, laringeal cartilage invasion, as well as regional lymph node metastases.

Objective. To establish the diagnostic role of ASL-perfusion of the liver in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in assessing the risk of portal hypertension in patients with viral hepatitis. Materials and methods. 109 patients with viral hepatitis were examined, including 69 (63.3 %) men and 40 (36.7 %) women, the average age of patients was 49.0 ± 2.3 years. All subjects (n = 109) underwent abdominal ultrasound with doppler vascular examination and clinical elastography, ASL-perfusion of the liver with MRI with an assessment of the volume of hepatic blood flow (HBF, ml/100 g/min).Results. The highest diagnostic and prognostic significance of ASL-perfusion for the liver is a targeted study of changes in the right lobe: for the right lobe, AUROC = 0.886 (95 % CI: 0.799–0.889); for the left, AUROC = 0.635 (95 % CI 0.627–0.641). The diagnostic and prognostic significance of ASLperfusion was evaluated in comparison with ultrasound with doppler vascular examination: AUROC = 0.991 (95 % CI: 0.880–0.993); AUROC = 0.801 (95 % CI: 0.776–0.804), respectively. The quantitative and qualitative characteristics of ASL – liver perfusion were evaluated.Conclusion. When performing ASL-perfusion of the liver, MRI should evaluate quantitative and qualitative criteria. Criteria for the prognosis of portal hypertension according to ASL- perfusion in MRI in patients with viral hepatitis: HBF 131–160 ml/100 g /min, red card – very high risk, HBF = 161–185 ml/100 g/min, red card – high, HBF = 40–130 ml/100 g/min, mixed card – medium; HBF = 131–160 ml/100 g/min, blue card-low risk (r = 0.883).
