4-month-old male with omphalocele with bilious emesis; pulmonary hypoplasia, chronic lung disease, and ventilator associated changes. Rule out small bowel obstruction or volvulus. LUNGS AND PLEURA: Dependent opacities in the right upper lobe and left lower lobe are suggestive of atelectasis. Superimposed infection is difficult to entirely exclude.MEDIASTINUM AND HILA: Tracheostomy tube tip at the thoracic inlet. Cardiothoracic ratio is increased (>50%). No pericardial effusion. No mediastinal or hilar adenopathy.CHEST WALL: No suspicious focal osseous lesion is identified. Slight left curve of the thoracic spine. Thoracic length is abnormally increased and width abnormally decreased, as expected with giant omphalocele.UPPER ABDOMEN: Two enteric tubes terminate in the stomach. The giant omphalocele measures 7 x 12 x 15 cm (transverse x AP x CC). It contains the entire liver, gallbladder, spleen, small bowel, and majority of the colon with the exception of the rectosigmoid. A moderate to large amount of fluid is contained within the sac and approaches water density (approximately 10 Hounsfield units). Two dilated bowel loops are seen in the right aspect of the omphalocele superior to the liver, likely representing ascending colon. An oblong, hypoattenuating structure at the anterior surface of the liver measures water density and is of unclear significance. The pancreas is not well visualized. The kidneys enhance symmetrically without focal lesion. Bilateral inguinal hernias containing fluid, incompletely imaged. Irregularity of the soft tissue at the anterior aspect of the omphalocele is noted, with overlying surgical mesh.

48 years old female with a history of breast cancer, status post chemotherapy which was completed on 2/19/14. This study was performed to evaluate response to chemotherapy.RADIOPHARMACEUTICAL: 12.9 mCi F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG).BLOOD GLUCOSE (FASTING): 105 mg/dL. Today's CT portion grossly demonstrates new left pleural effusion. Left frontal cranial defect noted from prior craniotomy is again noted. The right chest port with its tip in the right atrium is stable in position. Again seen are borderline enlarged right axial lymph nodes. There are scattered sclerotic osseous lesions within the spine and pelvis, with the largest lesion at T12.Today's PET examination demonstrates several new foci of increased metabolic activity are seen in the left supraclavicular region, corresponding to the normal sized lymph nodes retrospectively seen on CT portion of the study and suspicious for nodal metastasis. There are two new foci of increased activity in the L2 vertebral body and the left sacral ala, which are consistent with osseous metastasis. The SUVmax in the left sacral ala lesion is 6.9. Two faint foci of increased activity are seen in the right iliac wing, which were previously not clearly seen on the old study and may be due to increased bone marrow activity.There is interval increase in size and metabolic activity of the multiple hypermetabolic lymph nodes in the right axilla. Stable decreased metabolic activity is seen in the postsurgical area in the right frontal lobe. There are new areas decreased metabolic activity in the left temporal lobe and left occipital upper lobe, corresponding to the abnormal MRI signal changes seen on recent brain MRI study.A large area of increased activity is seen in the left posterior chest wall/pleural effusion at the level of pleural effusion, which can be due to inflammatory change or pleural metastasis.A triangular area of increased activity is seen in the anterior mediastinal region, which is most likely due to thymic rebound hyperplasia. Soft tissue density in the right hip subcutaneous tissue is most likely due to injection granuloma.Physiological activity is seen in the liver, spleen, kidneys, intestines and bladder.
1.Interval progression of metastatic breast cancer with new osseous metastasis in the L2 vertebral body and the left sacral ala and nodal metastasis in the left supraclavicular region.2.Interval worsening of the nodal metastasis in the right axilla and right chest wall at subpectoral regions.3.Probable stable metastatic disease in the right iliac bone.4.New areas of decreased metabolic activity in the left frontal and occipital lobes, which can be due to brain metastasis.5.New left pleural effusion with questionable pleural/chest wall metastasis.

51 year old with a hypoechoic right breast mass presents for ultrasound guided biopsy. Right ultrasound re-identified the target lesion for biopsy. The lesion to be targeted is a hypoechoic mass measuring 7 x 3 mm at the 9 o’clock position without increased vascularity, 4 cm from the nipple. The lesion was readily visible.PROCEDURE: The procedure and its risks, including bleeding, infection, and failure to diagnose, and expected benefits of ultrasound-guided core biopsy with percutaneous placement of a marking clip and post-procedure unilateral mammogram were discussed with the patient. Questions were answered. Consent was obtained both verbally and in writing. The time-out form was completed to confirm patient identity and side/type of procedure.The right breast was cleansed with chlorhexidine over the target area. Transducer was sterilely sheathed. Local anesthesia was obtained using 2% lidocaine superficially, with 1% lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine at depth. A 3 mm incision was made in the skin with a #11 scalpel blade. Using aseptic technique, continuous ultrasound guidance and a inferior to superior approach, three 14-gauge core needle (Achieve) specimens were obtained of the lesion. Targeting was judged very good. All specimens sank to the bottom of the prefilled container of 10% formalin. Specimen quality was judged very good.Specimens were sent to Pathology with an accompanying history sheet. Using continuous ultrasound-guidance a Bard ribbon clip was placed into the lesion in the usual manner. Pressure was held over the biopsy site until all bleeding subsided. The skin incision was closed with a Steri-Strip. Post-procedure digital right CC and ML views revealed the percutaneously placed clip to be in the expected location at anterior 9 o'clock position. No evidence of hematoma or other complication.A pressure dressing was positioned over the biopsy site and an ice pack positioned over the pressure dressing. Post-procedure instructions were reviewed with the patient both verbally and in writing. She tolerated the procedure well with no evident complications and left the Breast Imaging Department in stable condition.The procedure was performed by Dr. Abe.

History of dental abscess after tooth 3 extraction and questionable destructive process of right maxilla. Pain in the right V2 distribution. Please note that streak artifact from dental amalgam limits evaluation. There is a defect in the right maxillary alveolar ridge in the expected location of the #3 tooth, likely secondary to recent extraction. Adjacent to this lesion, there is osseous erosion extending anteriorly exposing the roots of the #4-6 teeth with full thickness bone loss adjacent to the #5 tooth (70/80340). Multiple maxillary molars are missing. There is asymmetric soft tissue thickening along the right maxillary alveolar ridge without definitive soft tissue abscess. There is periodontal lucency at tooth # 9. The paranasal sinuses are relatively hypoplastic. There is minimal mucosal thickening of the maxillary sinuses. There are scattered mildly enlarged cervical lymph nodes, which are not pathologically by CT size criteria. The ostiomeatal complexes and sphenoethmoidal recesses are clear. The orbits are unremarkable. The imaged intracranial structures are unremarkable.
An osteolytic process involving the right maxillary alveolar ridge likely represents osteomyelitis, although a neoplastic process is a differential consideration. Adjacent soft tissue thickening is present, which is likely inflammatory, although there is no definitive evidence of abscess. I personally reviewed the Images and/or procedure with the Resident/Fellow and agree with this report.

Five day old male for assessment of left kidney function The posterior abdominal radionuclide angiogram demonstrates delayed, decreased perfusion of the left kidney and prompt, normal perfusion of the right kidney. Sequential renal images show the left kidney to be enlarged with a large photopenic area in the mid and lower portion of the kidney consistent with hydronephrosis. The right kidney appears to be of normal size and morphology. There is delayed excretion of the radiopharmaceutical by the left kidney with excretion noted at 8 minutes. There is also delayed washout of radiopharmaceutical from the left kidney. There is normal excretion of the radiopharmaceutical by the right kidney with excretion noted at 6 minutes. There is also delayed washout of radiopharmaceutical from the left kidney.The estimated contribution of the right kidney to total renal function is 59% and that of the left kidney is 41%. There are no apparent abnormalities of the ureters or bladder.Despite the administration of the diuretic, there was a lack of washout of collecting system radiotracer into the bladder. The T1/2 washout from the dilated left collecting system was 35 minutes. The T1/2 washout from the right kidney was also slightly prolonged at 23 minutes.
Abnormal left renal perfusion, function and morphology may represent obstruction. Follow-up renal scan is suggested to assess for interval change in renal function.

Ms. Hargrave is a 60 year old female with a personal history of benign right surgical excisional biopsy in 2010. Per patient, she has not had a mammogram since the biopsy in 2010. She was recalled from screening mammogram for an abnormal finding in the right breast. An ML view and two spot compression views of the right breast were performed digitally and reviewed with the aid of R2 CAD 9.3. The breast parenchyma is composed of scattered fibroglandular density, unchanged in pattern and distribution. Linear marker is placed overlying a scar in the right superior breast, presumably at the site of prior surgical excisional biopsy. Immediately underneath this marker is an area of architectural distortion. No discrete mass or suspicious microcalcifications are identified in the right breast.RIGHT ULTRASOUND
Area of distortion on mammography along with vague shadowing on US are seen directly underneath the visible scar from prior benign excisional surgery. These findings are presumably all post-surgical in etiology. However, given the lack of other years mammograms since surgery to compare with, a short-term follow-up examination is recommended to confirm stability of these findings. All results and recommendations were relayed to the patient.BIRADS: 3 - Probably benign finding.RECOMMENDATION: 3B - Followup at Short Interval (1-11 Months).

Assessment for associated intracranial involvement is limited due to the lack of intravenous contrast. There are prominent arachnoid granulations in the occipital bone. There are numerous prominent cervical lymph nodes, particularly in the left supraclavicular region. For example a left supraclavicular lymph node measures 15 x 24 mm. There are also enlarged axillary and mediastinal lymph nodes. Otherwise, there is no definite evidence of mass lesions or abscess, although assessment is limited due to the lack of intravenous contrast. The thyroid and major salivary glands are unremarkable. The major cervical vessels are patent. The airways are patent. The imaged orbits are unremarkable. There is a subcentimeter nodule in the left lung apex.
1. A lytic lesion in the right mandibular condyles, without evidence of pathologic fracture is compatible with sarcoidosis, although other etiologies are not excluded. 2. Additional lytic lesions in the skull base are also compatible with sarcoidosis, although other etiologies are not excluded.3. Multiple enlarged cervical, mediastinal, and axillary lymph nodes may represent sarcoidosis, although other etiologies are not excluded.4. A subcentimeter nodule in the left lung apex may be related to sarcoidosis as well, although this is nonspecific. A dedicated chest CT may be useful for further evaluation.Discussed with Susan Glick at 4:10 PM on 1/7/15.

58-year-old with left breast calcifications for which magnification views were requested. An ML view and two spot magnification views of the left breast were performed digitally and reviewed with the aid of R2 CAD 9.3. The breast parenchyma is heterogeneously dense, which may obscure small masses, unchanged in pattern and distribution. The calcifications of interest in the left upper outer breast are not suspicious in morphology or distribution. Additionally, they are very minimally, if at all, changed compared to prior studies allowing for differences in technique. No dominant mass, suspicious microcalcifications or areas of architectural distortion in the left breast.
No mammographic evidence of malignancy. As long as the patient's physical examination remains normal, bilateral screening mammogram is recommended annually. Results and recommendation were discussed with the patient.BIRADS: 2 - Benign finding.RECOMMENDATION: NS - Screening Mammogram.

Male 64 years old Reason: aortic arch and carotid pseudoaneurysm on MRA, p/w strokes History: aortic arch and carotid pseudoaneurysm on MRA, p/w strokes ANGIOGRAM: Small broad-based focal outpouching at the level of the aortic arch projecting inferolaterally (image 46, series 9) consistent with an ulcerated mural plaque. There is no evidence of submural hematoma or dissection. There are severe atherosclerotic calcifications and mural thrombus affecting ]the thoracic aorta and there are severe coronary arterial calcifications. The great vessels of the chest are normal in caliber. Please see neck CT angiogram findings from the same day for full evaluation of the cervical vasculature. Incompletely imaged lack of contrast opacification in the infrarenal abdominal aorta could reflect aortic occlusion or possibly related to timing of the contrast bolus. There is stenosis of the origins of the bilateral renal arteries.LUNGS AND PLEURA: Spiculated partially solid partially groundglass nodule in the right upper lobe (image 24, series 8) contains calcium and is likely benign in etiology. 4-mm spiculated right middle lobe nodule is nonspecific, but follow-up is recommended (image 52, series 3). There is moderate centrilobular and paraseptal emphysema.MEDIASTINUM AND HILA: Hypoattenuating nodules in the right lobe of the thyroid.CHEST WALL: No significant abnormality noted.UPPER ABDOMEN: Absence of enteric contrast material limits sensitivity for abdominal pathology. Hypertrophy of the caudate lobe and widening of the fissures suggests chronic liver disease. Arterially enhancing lesion in hepatic segment IVa/IVb and hepatic segment VIII are incompletely characterized on this examination. Hypoattenuating lesions scattered throughout the hepatic parenchyma are too small to characterize, but presumably benign in etiology. There is nonspecific prominence of the pancreatic duct measuring up to 5 cm, without evidence of obstructing mass.
