Infections of the nervous system and its belonging structures have often been reported as life-threatening conditions. Purpose: the results of dynamic follow-up and proving of changes in secondary meningoencephalitis from suppurative left maxillary sinusitis are presented using the imaging methods - CT and MRI. Methods: diagnostic imaging (CT, MRI), of acute disease in a 13-year-old child with progressive development and proving of secondary bacterial meningoencephalitis. Result: the control CT after two days showed dynamics in the imaging CT finding with the appearance of changes in the type of brain oedema and development of pansinusitis. The MRI data described corresponded to changes as at meningoencephalitis in progress.Conclusion: The extension of the diagnostic algorithm with MRI, with the administration of intravenous contrast medium, clearly demonstrated changes characteristic of meningoencephalitis.

Kidney cysts are quite common in adults. Though small simple renal cysts in an adult over 30-40 years of age are not too unusual, however, if the same cysts are seen in a child, and especially if there are additional findings, then several diagnostic possibilities may come to mind. The role of ultrasound, together with the help of intravenous contrast agents and Doppler mode, are very critical in describing the morphologic features and follow-up of the complex or multiple and bilateral renal cysts. These sonographic signs are occasionally specific for diagnosis, but in many cases sonographic clues should be evaluated together with the other genetic and clinical data to reach diagnosis.The first part of this pictorial essay included the introduction into the subject and the classification of non-genetic cystic renal diseases. The key features for the non-genetic cystic renal diseases are illustrated. In the second part, eye-catching features of genetic cystic renal diseases are demonstrated.

SummaryInvasive testing is now seldom required in patients with suspected venous thromboembolism (VTE). However, a corollary of noninvasive imaging is increased complexity as results are often yielded as probabilities rather than definitive answers and additional testing is frequently required following initial imaging. This creates a milieu in which misunderstandings and protocol violations are common, potentially leading to diagnostic errors. A highly accurate noninvasive imaging technique which allows immediate treatment decisions to be made is needed. Magnetic resonance direct thrombus imaging (MRDTI) is a novel technique which detects methaemoglobin in clot, allowing visualisation of thrombus without using intravenous contrast. It has two major advantages over conventional modalities which identify it as having the potential to fill this role. Firstly, direct visualisation of thrombus overcomes many of the pitfalls of conventional techniques, which have either identified thrombus as a filling defect or in terms of surrogates. Secondly, simultaneous imaging of the legs and chest allows a comprehensive assessment of thrombus load, minimising the importance of overlooked subsegmental pulmonary embolism (PE) and potentially facilitating more titrated treatment.Early data suggest MRDTI is highly accurate for the detection of both deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and PE, and ongoing outcome studies are evaluating the safety of withholding treatment in suspected DVT and PE on the basis of negative MRDTI alone. If favorable, a multi-centre outcome study evaluating cost-effectiveness as well as safety would be justified. Subject to further evaluation, this technique has the potential greatly to simplify and standardise the investigation of suspected VTE.
