PCD-CT devices are expected to provide advantages in dose reduction, tissue specificity, artifact-free imaging, and multi-contrast demonstration capacity. Noise reduction and increased spatial resolution are expected using PCD-CT, even under challenging scanning conditions. Some experimental or preliminary studies support this hypothesis. This pictorial review illustrates the features of PCD-CT systems, particularly in the interventional field. PCD-CT offers superior image quality and better lesion discrimination than conventional CT techniques for various conditions. PCD-CT shows significant improvements in many aspects of vascular imaging. It is still in its early stages, and several challenges have been identified. Also, PCD-CT devices have some important caveats. The average cost of these devices is 3 to 4 times higher than conventional CT units. This additional cost must be justified by improved clinical benefits or reduced clinical harms. Further investigations will be needed to resolve these issues.","PeriodicalId":94174,"journal":{"name":"Polish journal of radiology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11497591/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142515582","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}

Hence, we decided to develop a methodology for measuring the volume of the coronary sinus in multi-detector CT and to try to apply it in practice.Material and methods: Forty-nine patients (22 men) were included in this research, with a mean age of 70.08 ± 13.6 years. Scanning with retrospective ECG-gating was performed using a Toshiba Aquilion 64 (slice: 0.5 mm; helical pitch: 12.8; rotation time: 0.4 s). 80 ± 20 cm3 of non-ionic contrast was administered to each patient. The volume of coronary sinus and other data measurements were performed using Vitrea 2 workstations. The organ volume measurement function was used to measure volume objects in CT scans. To standardise the measurements, they were all performed to the place where the vein of Marshall reaches the coronary sinus. In cases of loss of vein of Marshall, the first lateral vein was used as the junction between the coronary sinus and the great cardiac vein.Results: The coronary sinus volume varied from 0.96 cm3 to 8.52 cm3. The average volume was 3.71 ± 1.64 cm3. There was a significant correlation between end diastolic volume and coronary sinus volume (r = 0.33, p = 0.02). In most cases the quality of visualisation was good - the average was calculated as 4.16 ± 0.87. The Thebesian valve was present in 22 cases (44.9%); however, no statistical relationship between the presence of the Thebesian valve and coronary sinus was observed.Conclusion: It is possible to visualise and calculate the volume of the coronary sinus in cardiac CT.","PeriodicalId":94174,"journal":{"name":"Polish journal of radiology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11497589/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142515583","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}

An endodontically treated tooth index (ETTI) was used to evaluate ET. Once apical periodontitis was recognised, the size, extent, and ratio of adjacent anatomical structures were assessed using the complex periapical index (COPI).Results: Analysis of the CBCT images showed that ET was performed in 9.9% of the teeth examined, of which 52.7% of the canals were treated correctly, while 28.1% of the root canals were found to be underfilled, 6.8% were overfilled, 9.3% of the root canals were not obturated at all, and in 3.1% of the teeth examined, the filling material was only visible in the pulp chamber. Apical periodontitis was observed in 6% of all teeth examined, while the percentage of teeth following ET was 38.5%.Conclusions: The quality of the ET provided to the Polish subpopulation is unsatisfactory. Lack of root canal filling homogeneity is a significant risk factor for ET failure. Improper ET and poor quality of crown restoration after ET have an impact on the increased risk of occurrence, size, degree of root coverage, and extent of inflammatory periapical lesions in relation to adjacent anatomical structures.","PeriodicalId":94174,"journal":{"name":"Polish journal of radiology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11384213/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142305133","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}

Beginning with intrauterine clusters evolving into mature glands, hormonal fluctuations throughout puberty and the menstrual cycle finely tune mammary tissue growth. Oestrogens stimulate the proliferation of epithelial cells, while progesterone orchestrates the formation of lactiferous glands. During pregnancy, oestrogen and progesterone induces hyperplasia of lobules and ducts, preparing the breast for lactation. Prolactin is vital for lactation and stimulates milk production during pregnancy and postpartum. As shown by ultrasonography, physiological changes during lactation reflect glandular tissue transformation for milk secretion. Clinical and physiological changes, including increased blood flow, contribute to mammary growth and firmness, complicating clinical examination. Ultrasonographic findings reveal variability in women's glandular and fat tissue distribution, suggesting that milk production is not solely determined by anatomical factors. Though not directly linked to milk production, blood flow dynamics hint at a threshold for optimal lactation. Understanding these complex hormonal and physiological mechanisms is crucial for comprehending mammary development, function, and clinical assessment.","PeriodicalId":94174,"journal":{"name":"Polish journal of radiology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11384216/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142305146","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}

Two radiologists, blinded to the histopathological results, with 10 years of experience in gynaecological imaging, independently analysed the MRI images and MRS curves, and a third one resolved any disagreement. Using the histopathological results as a standard test, the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve was utilised to calculate the optimal lipid peak (1.3 ppm) cutoff for predicting high-grade cervical cancer.

Dual-energy CT generated conventional CT (C-CT) and 40 keV VMI. Quantitative analysis compared contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) of tumour to myometrium between C-CT and VMI. Qualitative assessment by 5 radiologists compared C-CT, VMI, and MRI for myometrial invasion (MI), cervical invasion, and lymph node metastasis. Sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) were calculated and compared for each diagnostic parameter.Results: Virtual monoenergetic imaging showed significantly higher CNR than C-CT (p < 0.001) and a higher sensitivity for MI than C-CT (p = 0.027) and MRI (p = 0.011) but lower specificity than MRI (p = 0.018). C-CT had a higher sensitivity and AUC for cervical invasion than MRI (p = 0.018 and 0.004, respectively).Conclusions: The study found no significant superiority of MRI over CT across all diagnostic parameters. VMI demonstrated heightened sensitivity for MI, and C-CT showed greater sensitivity and AUC for cervical invasion than MRI.
