Shoulder pain Severe degenerative changes throughout the left shoulder with bone-on-bone narrowing and deformity observed along the glenoid and correlating humeral head. Specifically there is superimposed density along the medial aspect of the humeral head representing a suspected bulky large osteophyte given that clear separation from the humeral head cannot be confirmed. Overall appearance may represent extensive post traumatic change from a prior remote injury and if prior imaging is available, this may increase sensitivity for subtle interval change.

Pain. Fracture classification. There is a comminuted fracture of the proximal humerus. This consists of a fracture through the surgical neck with mild impaction but little if any displacement/angulation. Although a fracture of the greater tuberosity was suspected on the basis of the radiographs, I see no discrete vertical plane disrupting the tuberosity. There is, however, a nondisplaced intra-articular fracture of the the anterior aspect of the humeral head coursing in the oblique coronal plane that appears to terminate medial to the lesser tuberosity. I see no additional fractures. Glenohumeral joint alignment is within normal limits. Moderate osteoarthritis affects the acromioclavicular joint. Heterogeneous hypodensity within the joint represents effusion/hemarthrosis. There appears to be mild fatty atrophy of the teres minor muscle. The soft tissues of the shoulder otherwise are unremarkable.

Ms. Manuel is a 45 year old female returning for a short term followup for bilateral masses. Of note, she was scheduled to return on 10/2013 for the short-term followup, but did not show up. She has had a right nipple milky discharge for the past 18 years. 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. Round circumscribed mass in the right retroareolar region is stable and compatible with the previously characterized fibroadenolipoma on ultrasound. There has been an interval decrease in size of a focal asymmetry in the left outer breast, compatible with an involuting cyst as previously seen on prior ultrasound. There is no new mass, suspicious microcalcifications or areas of architectural distortion identified in either breast. Bilateral benign intramammary lymph nodes are seen in the upper outer breasts.
|
Stable fibroadenolipoma in the right breast and involuting cyst 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.

Please note that FLAIR sequences are degraded by motion and therefore the evaluation for FLAIR signal abnormalities is unreliable. A small enhancing focus is seen within the left tegmentum at the pontine midbrain junction near the expected location of the medial longitudinal fasciculus (1001/19). There is suggestion of a vessel extending to the lesion. There is an enhancing focus in the left frontal periventricular white matter with a draining vein which is likely represents a developmental venous anomaly. There are additional tiny vessels within the left parietal lobe (1001/51) and cerebellum (1001/7) which also likely represent developmental venous anomalies. A focus of enhancement in the left lateral thalamus is of indeterminate etiology (1001/34).The ventricles and sulci are within normal limits. The basal cisterns remain patent. There is no midline shift or mass effect. There is no diffusion abnormality. No extra-axial fluid collection is identified. The midline structures and craniocervical junction are within normal limits.
|
A small enhancing focus within the expected location of the left medial longitudinal fasciculus may account for the patient's reported internuclear ophthalmoplegia. There is perhaps a small vessel associated with this focus. The differential for this small lesion would include vascular, inflammatory or demyelinating etiologies.There are several additional developmental venous anomalies within the left cerebrum and cerebellum as well as a nonspecific subtle focus in the left thalamus. It is unclear whether these lesions are related to the left tegmentum lesion described above.

Reason: S/p roux en y gastric bypass, evaluate j-j anastomosis through g tube History: abdominal pain s/p s/p roux en y gastric bypass Scout radiograph showed a nonobstructive bowel gas pattern with postoperative changes. Small amount of residual contrast material seen in right abdomen.Fluoroscopic evaluation showed contrast opacification of the biliopancreatic limb with subsequent transit into the more distal small bowel/common channel. Mild prominence of proximal jejunum seen, may be due in part to normal peristalsis, particularly given reported patency of jejunojejunal anastomosis per operative report. A small amount of contrast was seen in the colon by approximately 45 minutes, with a much larger amount since by 90 minutes, indicating biliopancreatic limb and jejunojejunal anastomotic patency. TOTAL FLUOROSCOPY TIME: 4:53 minutes

Male, 9 years old, with increased ICP, assess for hydrocephalus or herniation. Hyperdense blood product is redemonstrated layering dependently within the occipital horns. The quantity of blood on the right is approximately unchanged, while on the left it is reduced. A small amount of blood product remains vaguely discernible within the interpeduncular and suprapancreatic cisterns, improved from prior. Hyperattenuation within the occipital sulci bilaterally may also correspond to the presence of subarachnoid blood product. While there is no correlation for this finding on prior CT, this does correlate with sulcal FLAIR hyperintensity seen on prior MRI. There may also be a thin layer of subdural blood product along the posterior interhemispheric falx and tentorium versus artifact.Patchy white matter hypoattenuation is seen in the frontal and parietal periventricular regions which correlates to FLAIR signal abnormality on prior MRI. No loss of gray-white distinction, edema or mass effect is seen. Ventricular size is stable to at most mildly enlarged, on the order of 1 to 2 mm.
|
Evolution of intracranial blood product is seen with reduction in blood in the left occipital horn as well as the interpeduncular and suprachiasmatic cisterns, and stable blood product in the right occipital horn. Findings compatible with subarachnoid blood product in the occipital sulci have also not significantly changed relative to the prior MRI. No evidence of significant or new mass effect is detected. Ventricular caliber is stable to at most mildly increased.

Initial staging of newly diagnosed mid-esophageal cancer. Past history of laryngeal cancer status post chemoradiation.RADIOPHARMACEUTICAL: 11.0 mCi F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG).BLOOD GLUCOSE (FASTING): 99 mg/dL. Today's CT portion grossly demonstrates right apical consolidation with bronchiectasis. Bilateral emphysematous changes are also present. Right jugular central line with tip in the SVC. Right ICD is noted. Tracheostomy tube is present. Gastrostomy tube is also seen. Dobbhoff tube has tip in the stomach. Extensive atherosclerotic calcifications are present with aneurysmal dilatation of the left iliac artery.Today's PET examination demonstrates a small hypermetabolic subcarinal mediastinal focus (SUV max = 3.9) which is in the region of the mid-esophagus and could represent the primary tumor versus an adjacent hypermetabolic lymph node.An additional hypermetabolic focus at the gastroesophageal junction (SUV max = 4.7) could also represent a primary esophageal cancer focus or inflammation.Multiple fairly symmetric small to medium-sized moderate to markedly hypermetabolic bilateral hilar and mediastinal lymph nodes are present (SUV max = 5.4). Given their locations and symmetry these may reflect inflammatory lymph nodes although metastatic tumor is also a possibility.In the right lung apex there is markedly hypermetabolic region of consolidated lung with bronchiectasis (SUV max = 9.8), as well as hypermetabolic lymph nodes in the adjacent right axilla. These pulmonary findings are suggestive of an infectious etiology based on CT and fairly rapid appearance from recent prior CT, also suggestive of interval infection for a lesion of this size. Tumor cannot be entirely excluded, however.No suspicious FDG lesion is seen within the abdomen, pelvis, or skeleton. Hypermetabolic soft tissue activity symmetrically in the periphery of both hips, consistent with inflammation. Expected inflammatory activity surrounds the tracheostomy and gastrostomy tubes.

Ms. Densmore is a 85 year old female presenting with a palpable left breast mass. Per patient's daughter, she had noticed left breast swelling/redness since Nov 2014. She was placed on a course of antibiotics which did improve the swelling, but the lump is still present. Three standard views of both breasts and two left spot compression views 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. A triangular marker is placed at site of palpable area of abnormality in the left upper outer breast. No discrete mass is present underneath the marker. However, there is diffuse skin thickening present bilaterally (left greater than right) with a dense trabeculation pattern, likely from underlying edema. Bilateral coarse ductal calcifications are seen in both breasts. LEFT BREAST ULTRASOUND
|
Asymmetric left breast skin thickening and edema with no mammographic/sonographic correlate for patient's area of concern. A surgical consultation is recommended at this time for further evaluation of these findings. Differential considerations include cellulitis/mastitis, unusual manifestation of CHF or potentially inflammatory breast cancer. BIRADS: 3 - Probably benign finding.RECOMMENDATION: B - Surgical Consultation.

History of rheumatoid arthritis, evaluate for lung disease. LUNGS AND PLEURA: Scattered benign appearing calcified micronodules. Basilar atelectasis/scarring. No focal airspace opacities, pleural effusions, or evidence of fibrosis. No evidence of bronchiectasis, although there is mild basilar bronchial wall thickening.MEDIASTINUM AND HILA: Mild pericardial fluid/thickening and moderate cardiomegaly. Severe coronary calcifications. CHEST WALL: The bones appear demineralized. UPPER ABDOMEN: Absence of IV and enteric contrast material limits sensitivity for abdominal pathology. Hepatic and splenic granulomata. Hypoattenuating lesion in the right hepatic lobe with a peripheral small calcification is incompletely characterized, and correlation with dedicated hepatic imaging may be considered as warranted clinically.

Male 66 years old; Reason: prostate cancer History: evaluate the right ribs as pt had a fall, r/o mets. Patient, history of multiple recent falls. Patient also noted falling today in the parking lot of the hospital, landing on his right knee, denies head trauma, dizziness or pain. Exam was unremarkable, with mild skin abrasion of the right knee and left hand, able to bear weight, ambulating well, no imbalance. There is increased osteoblastic activity involving the anterior aspect of the adjacent 3rd-6th ribs which are focal and vertically oriented. This is a highly typical appearance for benign rib fractures.In the left posterior aspect of the 10th rib, there is increased activity along the axis of the rib with features more suspicious for metastatic disease, and corresponds with a nonspecific sclerotic focus seen on comparison CT. More medially at the costovertebral junction at this same level, there is an additional focus of activity which corresponds with the degenerative osteophyte on comparison CT. There is mild increased activity along L4/L5, and L5/S1 disk space which correlates with the ninth facet arthropathy seen on CT study.
|
1. Benign fractures of the right anterior 3rd-6th ribs.2. A single additional focus in the left posterior 10th rib with somewhat more suspicious features on both bone scan and comparison CT could represent a single focus diastasis. However, given history of recent fracture and multiple recent falls, an atypical appearance of an additional benign rib fracture is also a possibility. Findings were discussed with Dr. Chadi Nabhan by telephone on 1/16/2015 at 3:10 PM.

History of mantle cell lymphoma status post chemotherapy, last in 1998. Recent CT showed a mildly enlarged lymph nodes, stable. Undergoing heart transplantation evaluation. Restaging exam to define disease activity and possible biopsy planning.RADIOPHARMACEUTICAL: 14.3 mCi F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG).BLOOD GLUCOSE (FASTING): 102 mg/dL. Today's CT portion grossly demonstrates left ICD and left ventricular assist device, grossly intact. Right chest Port-A-Cath with tip in the SVC/RA junction. Multichamber cardiomegaly is noted.Today's PET examination demonstrates multiple symmetric mildly hypermetabolic bilateral axillary lymph nodes. These have increased slightly in size, number, and metabolic activity from previous but are still mild (SUV max = 1.9 previously, = 3.0 currently).Multiple small fairly symmetric mildly hypermetabolic mediastinal and bilateral hilar lymph nodes are similar in uptake although slightly increased in size and number number compared with previous (SUV max = 4.0).Multiple small symmetric mildly hypermetabolic bilateral inguinal lymph nodes are also similar in uptake with slight increase in size and number from previous (SUV max = 2.7).There has been interval resolution of previous diffuse hypermetabolic abnormal splenic activity. There has also been resolution of previous right upper lobe hypermetabolic pulmonary focus.
|
1.No significantly FDG avid tumor currently. There are symmetric mildly hypermetabolic lymph nodes in the axilla, mediastinal, and inguinal locations which, while slightly more pronounced than previous, are still mild and considered more likely a manifestation of systemic inflammation. Tumor activity cannot be entirely excluded, however. No dominant focus for biopsy is detected as questioned.2.Interval resolution of previous diffuse splenic activity.
