Ms. Doke is a 71 year old female with a personal history of right breast lumpectomy in 2011 for DCIS. She also had a benign biopsy in the right breast in 2011 for fibroadenomatoid changes with microcalcifications and a benign biopsy in the left breast in 2013 for fibroadenomatoid changes with microcalcifications. Family history of breast cancer in twin sister (diagnosed at the age of 64). Three standard views of both breasts 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. A rod-shaped clip is seen in the right medial breast and an S-shaped clip is seen in the left upper outer breast, both at sites of prior benign breast biopsies. A linear marker was placed on the scar overlying the right breast. There are stable postsurgical changes including architectural distortion and increased density present within the right lumpectomy site. Diffusely scattered calcifications have progressed in a benign type fashion in both breasts. There is no new mass, suspicious microcalcifications or areas of architectural distortion identified in either breast. Benign appearing lymph nodes are projected over both axillae.
Scattered benign calcifications in both breasts and stable postsurgical changes in the right breast. No mammographic evidence of malignancy. As long as the patient's physical examination remains normal, bilateral diagnostic mammogram is recommended annually. Results and recommendation were discussed with the patient.BIRADS: 2 - Benign finding.RECOMMENDATION: ND - Diagnostic Mammogram.

Male 51 years old; Reason: bone scan abnormalities with a history of RCC History: as above There is persistent increased radiotracer uptake in the posterior right and left sixth ribs, as well as the anterolateral seventh rib which correlate with the nonspecific sclerotic rib lesions seen on same day CT study, however appearance is unchanged compared to prior bone scan. There is also persistent radiotracer uptake in the right parietal bone of the skull also not significantly changed. Uptake in the mid to lower thoracic spine correlates with degenerative changes seen on same-day CT study and are stable compared to prior bone scan. Uptake in the lower lumbar vertebral bodies also correlates with degenerative changes on CT and are stable compared to prior bone scan.There has been interval right knee arthroplasty.
Right skull and bilateral ribs lesions are equivocal and may represent osseous metastatic disease or a benign process. However, the appearance is stable and there are no new suspicious osseous lesions. FDG-PET may be useful for further evaluation for potential osseous and soft tissue metastatic disease if clinically warranted.

Diffuse disc desiccation is noted, most prominent at the L4-5 and L5-S1 levels where there is persistent slight decrease in disc height. The conus is normal in signal and morphology and terminates at the superior aspect of L1. The visualized intra-abdominal and paraspinal contents are unremarkable.L1/2: No evidence of a disk bulge. No significant spinal canal or neuroforaminal stenosis. This is unchanged compared to previous exam.L2/3: No evidence of a disk bulge. No significant spinal canal or neuroforaminal stenosis.

The prominent bilateral ligamentum flavum thickening and facet hypertrophy cause bilateral lateral recess stenosis and moderate neuroforaminal stenosis, left more prominent than right.L5/S1:There is diffuse disk bulge and smaller posterior central disk protrusion without compromise of the central canal. Bilateral ligamentum flavum thickening and facet hypertrophy along with bulging disk cause narrowing of bilateral neural foramina.SI Joints: The sacroiliac region is unremarkable.

Female 26 years old; Reason: subclinical hyperthyroidism and thyroid nodules, evaluating for toxic nodules The thyroid images demonstrate mild uniform inappropriately elevated uptake in a gland of normal size and configuration. The 4-hour radioactive iodine uptake is 14.4% and the 24-hour uptake is 34.1% (normal range 10-30% at 24-hours). No hot or cold nodules are identified.

Postop Again seen is deformity of the right hip joint with absence of the femoral head and neck and disarticulation of the proximal femur with respect to the acetabulum. Multiple foci of heterotopic bone are again noted in the right hip region, a couple of which may have been resected when compared with the prior study. The margins of one of the foci of heterotopic ossification along the medial aspect of the proximal femur are slightly indistinct, and hence I cannot exclude the possibility of osteomyelitis of this fragment. There are skin staples along the lateral aspect of the hip with irregularity of the underlying soft tissues that presumable represents wound. Deformity of the obturator ring and acetabulum appears similar to prior study likely representing sequela of prior osteomyelitis.
Right hip disarticulation with heterotopic bone formation and postoperative changes as described above. The margins of one fragment of heterotopic bone along the medial aspect of proximal femur are slightly indistinct and hence I cannot exclude the possibility of osteomyelitis of this fragment.

Ms. Flennoy is a 78 year old female with a personal history of right breast mastectomy in 1981 for cancer. She has no current breast-related complaints. Three standard views of the left breast (with additional left CC and MLO views) 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. Scattered benign calcifications, including arterial calcifications, are seen. There is no new mass, suspicious microcalcifications or areas of architectural distortion identified in the left breast. Benign lymph nodes are projected over the left axilla.
No mammographic evidence of malignancy. As long as the patient's physical examination remains normal, left unilateral diagnostic mammogram is recommended annually. Results and recommendation were discussed with the patient.BIRADS: 2 - Benign finding.RECOMMENDATION: ND - Diagnostic Mammogram.

Low back pain status post MVA For this study I will designate 5 lumbar vertebrae with small hypoplastic ribs at L1. Severe degenerative disk disease affects L5/S1. There is slight loss of height of the L5 vertebral body, but I suspect that this is chronic in etiology as I see no angular deformities to suggest an acute fracture. The remaining intervertebral disk spaces and vertebral body heights are preserved. There is straightening of the lumbar spine, but otherwise alignment is within normal limits.
Degenerative disk disease.

Pain Again seen is a comminuted fracture of the distal radius involving the metaphysis and radial styloid. The radial styloid fracture remains visible. Sclerosis along the distal metaphyseal fracture suggests an attempt at healing. There is also a minimally displaced fracture of the ulnar styloid that appears similar to that seen on the prior study accounting for slight positional differences. A fracture of the proximal diaphysis of the fourth metacarpal likewise appears similar to that seen on the prior study accounting for slight positional differences. A previously suspected fracture of the base of the fifth metacarpal is not well seen on the current study. The bones appear demineralized. There is mild diffuse soft tissue swelling. Three views of the left hand reveal the aforementioned fractures. I see no additional fractures. The bones appear demineralized.

50 year old female unable to bear weight. There is mild soft tissue swelling along the lateral aspect of ankle, as well as a tibiotalar joint effusion. On the oblique view, there is slight cortical irregularity along the medial aspect of the distal fibular diaphysis which likely simply represent syndesmotic attachment and is of doubtful current clinical significance. While I see no displaced fracture, a hairline lucency is noted within the distal fibular diaphysis that could conceivably represent a nondisplaced fracture if this corresponds to the site of the patient's pain, but this is equivocal.
Equivocal hairline fracture of the distal fibular diaphysis as described above. This was discussed with Dr. Jones in the ED by phone at the time of dictation.I personally reviewed the Images and/or procedure with the Resident/Fellow and agree with this report.
