Imaging was performed using the 1.5T Siemens Magnetom Aera machine's built-in spine DTI protocol. Sagittal FA values were acquired at four different cervical spine regions (medulla oblongata, above the injury site, at the injury site and below the injury site).Results: Eight of the 26 patients had complete neurological fallout. Of the participants, 30% had injuries at the C4/C5 level, whilst injuries involving segments below and above C4/C5 affected 15% and 55% of participants, respectively. Injury site FA values (median 0.30) were significantly lower (p < 0.001) than the above injury site FA (median 0.46, p = 0.26) and below injury site FA (median 0.42 and p = 0.019). A significant correlation was noted between the injury site FA values and the ASIA impairment scale motor scores (p = 0.001, r = 0.87).Conclusion: FA value showed excellent correlation with the ASIA impairment scale motor scores.","PeriodicalId":43442,"journal":{"name":"SA Journal of Radiology","volume":"25 1","pages":"2038"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8063771/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"38940453","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The majority of accidentally ingested foreign bodies pass through the alimentary tract without any complications and rarely require intervention. Accidentally ingested foreign bodies are usually fish bones, bones of other animals, and dentures. Oesophageal food impaction is the commonest cause of oesophageal foreign bodies in the Western hemisphere. Intentionally ingested foreign bodies may be organic or inorganic, and often require intervention; these patients have either underlying psychological or mental disease or are involved in illegal activities such as body packing, which involves trafficking narcotics. Imaging plays a crucial role in not only identifying the type, number and location of the foreign body but also in excluding any complications. In this comprehensive pictorial review, we provide an overview of the spectrum of foreign bodies ingested in adults, emphasising the role of various imaging modalities, their limitations and common foreign body mimickers on imaging.","PeriodicalId":43442,"journal":{"name":"SA Journal of Radiology","volume":"25 1","pages":"2022"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8063768/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"38940449","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Managing clinicians, therefore, require more confidence in their diagnosis and prognostic accuracy before appropriately counselling the parents regarding termination of pregnancy.Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) following the diagnosis of foetal anomalies at a foetomaternal unit of a tertiary South African institution.Methods: Eighty-eight pregnant women in their late second/third trimester who underwent both an ultrasound (US) at the foetomaternal unit and foetal MRI at the Radiology Department from 01 July 2013 to 30 September 2019 were included in this clinical study conducted at Steve Biko Academic Hospital.Results: Despite the high degree of concurrence (73.9%) between both modalities regarding the main diagnoses, MRI provided additional information in 45.5% of patients and changed the diagnosis in 25% of the patients. It further demonstrated superiority in providing diagnostic information in 97% of cases where the US alone was inadequate to counsel parents regarding the termination of pregnancy, and it completely changed the clinical management in 42% of cases.Conclusion: It is clearly evident from this study that foetal MRI is a necessity when termination of pregnancy is being considered following an US conducted by the foetomaternal unit. This allows for a complete foetal assessment and gives the managing clinician sufficient diagnostic confidence to prognosticate the future quality of life of the child.","PeriodicalId":43442,"journal":{"name":"SA Journal of Radiology","volume":"25 1","pages":"2010"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8008045/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"25576984","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
