49-year-old female with large abdominal mass. Evaluate for vascular involvement. ABDOMEN:LUNG BASES: No significant abnormality notedLIVER, BILIARY TRACT: Multiple hypervascular liver lesions are identified; for reference right lobe lesion measures 1.4 x 1.7 cm (series 9, image 27). Comparison is difficult to prior exam given difference in technique and timing of contrast bolus, however, some of these were present on 2009 exam. Several of these lesions appear to follow blood pool attenuation and could represent hemangiomas. However, lack of characteristic appearance on single phase contrast study and multiplicity of lesions raises possibility of adenomas, FNH, or metastatic lesions.

1.Large mass in the midabdomen which is closely associated with adjacent small bowel loop, raising possibility of small bowel as origin of this mass, possibly GIST. However, etiology remains uncertain. Small branches of the SMA feed this mass; main celiac, main SMA, and IMA branches remain uninvolved. 2.Multiple hypervascular liver lesions are of unclear etiology. Several, but not all, of these lesions follow blood pool attenuation and could represent hemangiomas. However, with single contrast phase and multiplicity raises possibility of adenomas, FNH, or metastatic lesions. Further characterization with dedicated liver MRI using hepatobiliary agent (Eovist) is recommended.

Ataxia. Evaluate vasculature given previous posterior circulation stenosis. Unenhanced CT head: There is cerebellar atrophy which has increased since the prior exam. There is no intracranial mass, hemorrhage, hydrocephalus or edema. The midline is intact. Paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells and bony structures are unremarkable. Incidental note is made of stable bilateral staphyloma. Orbits are otherwise unremarkable.CTA neck: There is a 3 vessel aortic arch. At the right carotid bifurcation there is atherosclerotic plaque resulting in a 30% stenosis of the right internal carotid artery by NASCET criteria. There is an additional focal calcification related to a plaque within the proximal right internal carotid 1.9 cm from its origin. The left proximal common carotid is obscured by artifact related to contrast in the subclavian. There is mild irregularity related to plaque without significant stenosis at the left carotid bifurcation. The right vertebral artery is hypoplastic, measuring approximately 1.8 mm. The left artery demonstrates irregularity along its V1 segment without focal stenosis more distally.

Kidneys otherwise show no diagnostic abnormality. RETROPERITONEUM, LYMPH NODES: No significant abnormality noted.BOWEL, MESENTERY: Since prior CT examination is been interval insertion of a percutaneous gastrostomy tube. Balloon appears to be in proper position in the anterior aspect of the stomach pinned against the anterior abdominal wall. The gastropexy fixtures appear to lie in the anterior abdominal wall, but this most likely is artifactual with the stomach wall blending imperceptibly and stretched into the anterior rectus wall. No abnormal fluid collections are seen about the insertion site. No significant amount of free air is seen in the abdomen -- a single, punctate foci in the left subdiaphragmatic region (see series 3, image 14) is seen, and amount often seen remaining in the days following placement of a percutaneous gastrostomy tube. Contrast material administered through gastrostomy tube outlines a normal-appearing stomach and progresses rapidly through normal small bowel, and colon without other intrinsic abnormalities. No signs of obstruction.No free mesenteric fluid is seen.BONES, SOFT TISSUES: No significant abnormality notedOTHER: No significant abnormality notedPELVIS:UTERUS, ADNEXA: No significant abnormality notedBLADDER: No significant abnormality notedLYMPH NODES: No significant abnormality notedBOWEL, MESENTERY: Contrast material administered through gastrostomy tube outlines a normal-appearing stomach and progresses rapidly through normal small bowel, and colon without other intrinsic abnormalities.

57-year-old female with right-sided weakness and paresthesias, evaluate for CVA. There is no evidence of intracranial hemorrhage, mass, or cerebral edema. The ventricles and basal cisterns are normal in size and configuration. There is no midline shift or herniation. The imaged paranasal sinuses and mastoid air cells are clear. The skull and extracranial soft tissues are unremarkable.
No evidence of intracranial hemorrhage, mass, or cerebral edema. Please note that CT is not sensitive for the early detection of nonhemorrhagic acute ischemic stroke and if clinically warranted, an MRI may be considered.I personally reviewed the Images and/or procedure with the Resident/Fellow and agree with this report.

Male 70 years old; Reason: Pt is a 69 y/o male with kidney cancer, evaluate for recurrence History: kidney cancer CHEST:LUNGS AND PLEURA: Stable micronodules. Scarring versus atelectasis is stable in the right lung base.MEDIASTINUM AND HILA: Dilated esophagus again noted without wall thickening or distal obstructing lesion. Stable surgical clips at the GE junction.CHEST WALL: No significant abnormality notedABDOMEN: The absence of intravenous and oral contrast limits evaluation of the solid organs and of the bowels. Given these limitations, the following observations were made:LIVER, BILIARY TRACT: No significant abnormality notedSPLEEN: No significant abnormality notedPANCREAS: No significant abnormality notedADRENAL GLANDS: No significant abnormality notedKIDNEYS, URETERS: Left nephrectomy site reference nodularity has decreased in size measuring 1.2 x 2.4 cm is a 1.7 x 2.6 cm soft tissue focus with a central fat nidus. While this may represent resolving postoperative change, an inflammatory process, such as fat necrosis cannot be excluded.RETROPERITONEUM, LYMPH NODES: Interval resolution of left periaortic hypoattenuation focus.BOWEL, MESENTERY: No significant abnormality noted.BONES, SOFT TISSUES: No significant abnormality notedOTHER: No significant abnormality notedPELVIS:PROSTATE, SEMINAL VESICLES: Moderately large prostate, unchangedBLADDER: No significant abnormality notedLYMPH NODES: No significant abnormality notedBOWEL, MESENTERY: No significant abnormality notedBONES, SOFT TISSUES: No significant abnormality notedOTHER: No significant abnormality noted
Stable examination without overt recurrence or metastatic disease. Resolving postoperative change versus focal fat necrosis within the left nephrectomy site.
