PROCEDURE: CT-guided drainage of left anterior intraperitoneal collection. OPERATORS: Dr. ___, radiology trainee and Dr. ___, attending radiologist. Dr. ___ supervised the trainee during the key components of the procedure and reviewed and agrees with the trainee's findings. TECHNIQUE: The risks, benefits, and alternatives of the procedure were explained to the patient. After a detailed discussion, informed written consent was obtained. A pre-procedure timeout using three patient identifiers was performed per ___ protocol. The patient was placed in a supine position on the CT scan table. Limited preprocedure CT scan was performed to localize the collection. Based on the CT findings an appropriate skin entry site for the drain placement was chosen. The site was marked. Local anesthesia was administered with 1% Lidocaine solution. Using intermittent CT fluoroscopic guidance, an 18-G ___ needle was inserted into the collection. A sample of fluid was aspirated, confirming needle position within the collection. 0.038 ___ wire was placed through the needle and needle was removed. This was followed by placement of a ___ Exodus pigtail catheter into the collection. The stiffener and the wire were removed. The pigtail was deployed. The position of the pigtail was confirmed within the collection via CT fluoroscopy. Approximately 250 cc of purulent fluid was aspirated with a sample sent for microbiology evaluation. The catheter was secured by a StatLock. The catheter was attached to suction bulb. Sterile dressing was applied. Limited post drainage scan showed near complete resolution of the main collection. There was a residual smaller component superiorly, lateral to the splenic flexure of colon. This was accessed with an 18 gauge ___ needle and an additional 30 cc purulent fluid was aspirated. No drain was placed at this location. The procedure was tolerated well, and there were no immediate post-procedural complications. DOSE: Dose information not available at time of reporting. SEDATION: Moderate sedation was provided by administering divided doses of 2 mg Versed and 150 mcg fentanyl throughout the total intra-service time of 35 minutes during which patient's hemodynamic parameters were continuously monitored by an independent trained radiology nurse. FINDINGS: 1. On scout images of the abdomen and pelvis, a multilobulated Fluid collection was present in the left anterior abdomen, similar in size and configuration to this CT from yesterday. 2. Catheter positioned was satisfactory. Purulent fluid was aspirated. The major portion of the collection was essentially resolved post aspiration and the catheter was left in place. There was minimal residual fluid in the superior component of the collection post aspiration, which is most likely communicating with the more inferior components of the collection and with the catheter. ADDITIONAL FINDINGS ON PRE-PROCEDURE SCOUT IMAGES: The field of view covers from the lung bases to the mid pelvis. There is a pigtail drain in the left perisplenic region in stable position, with unchanged appearance of small residual collection here. No new collections are demonstrated. There are postsurgical changes in the abdomen and the anterior abdominal wall. Note is also made of a stable small left pleural effusion with associated basal atelectasis, as well as stable patchy bilateral airspace consolidation at the lung bases. Findings related to the left kidney described on the previous CT are not demonstrated on the present unenhanced scan. There is no significant free-fluid. IMPRESSION: Successful CT-guided placement of a ___ pigtail catheter into the left intra-abdominal collection, with aspiration of a total of 280 cc purulent fluid. Samples were sent for microbiology evaluation.

TECHNIQUE: Following acquisition of a noncontrast scan of the abdomen and pelvis, multidetector CT images of the abdomen and pelvis were obtained with intravenous contrast in delayed phase. Sagittal and coronal reformations are included. DOSE: Acquisition sequence: 1) Spiral Acquisition 3.4 s, 54.7 cm; CTDIvol = 3.3 mGy (Body) DLP = 177.7 mGy-cm. 2) Spiral Acquisition 4.1 s, 54.7 cm; CTDIvol = 13.1 mGy (Body) DLP = 715.4 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Body) = 893 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: Recent CT of the abdomen and pelvis from ___. FINDINGS: At each lung base, multifocal consolidations are unchanged consistent with multifocal pneumonia. A right posterior basilar pulmonary nodule measures up to 6 mm (03:22) without short-term change. An organized left-sided pleural effusion with loculation and partial rim measures up to 68 x 27 mm, previously up to 74 x 35 mm, mildly decreased. Calcified granulomas are again found in the left hilum. No focal liver lesions are identified. Hypoattenuating enlarged liver is consistent with steatosis. There is no biliary dilatation. Gallbladder appears normal. Pancreas appears normal. Spleen is normal in size. Splenic cyst appears unchanged. Adrenals are unremarkable. Right kidney appears normal. The left again shows a delayed attenuated nephrogram wall with mild wall thickening along the upper ureter but only minimal dilatation of the upper ureter. Small defect along the medial left upper pole appears unchanged.There is no hydro nephrosis. Distal left is not dilated and difficult to follow. The stomach is unremarkable. The proximal jejunum again shows mild wall thickening, which can probably be attributed to peritoneal inflammation. Small bowel small bowel anastomosis can be seen in the epigastric region. Large bowel appears normal. Patient is status post hysterectomy. Adnexa appear normal. Bladder is unremarkable. There is no lymphadenopathy. There is no free air or ascites. Systemic veins including pelvic veins are well opacified for review. There is no evidence for venous thrombosis. Separate origins for the splenic and common hepatic arteries is a normal variant. Arterial structures are otherwise unremarkable. A pigtail catheter terminates in a rim enhancing left subphrenic collection that has increased in size. It is irregular in shape but the main part measures up to 74 x 64 mm in axial dimension. Previously whole collection appeared is a thin crescent and measured only up to 16 mm in width. Subphrenic collection measures up to 44 mm in height, previously only 10 mm. In the left lower quadrant, a second percutaneous pigtail catheter terminates in a nearly collapsed collection. Previously, before drainage, that collection had measured over 10 cm in length. Residual rim enhancing collection at the site now measures only up to 49 x 11 mm in axial ___, nearly collapsed. There is air enhancement and stranding in the incision site in the midline which is nonspecific. There are no suspicious bone lesions. Vertebral body heights and interspaces appear preserved in height. IMPRESSION: 1. Increase in size of left subphrenic rim enhancing collection, despite presence of in situ pigtail catheter. Correlation with catheter output is recommended. Second more inferior pigtail catheter lies in a nearly collapsed collection immediately deep to the abdominal wall in the left lower quadrant. 2. No significant change in multifocal consolidations at each lung base most consistent with pneumonia. Slight decrease in persistent loculated, semi organized left pleural collection. Empyema is not excluded. 3. Persistent attenuated delayed nephrogram of the left kidney. Despite the lack of substantial hydroureteronephrosis, possibility of some degree of obstruction should be considered. It may be appropriate to consider urology consultation, if needed clinically, in addition to correlation with laboratory data. 4. Hepatic steatosis. 5. No short-term change in 6 mm nodule in the right lower lobe. If there are risk factors such as smoking, strong family history of pulmonary malignancy, or occupational exposure, follow-up CT could be considered in one year. 6. No evidence of deep vein thrombosis.

TECHNIQUE: Axial diffusion, sagittal T1, axial T1, axial T2, and axial gradient echo sequences performed Following the uneventful intravenous administration of 6 cc Gadavist, gadolinium base contrast, axial T1 and sagittal T1 sequences were performed. COMPARISON: ___ head CT. FINDINGS: There is mild motion artifact requiring use of BLADE acquisition technique. On the axial T2 and axial FLAIR sequences, there is questionable diffuse mild thickening of the cortical gray matter with a mildly indistinct interface with the underlying subcortical white matter. On corresponding axial T1 and sagittal T1 sequences, the gray matter demonstrates normal thickness within normal interface within the subcortical white matter. Otherwise the parenchymal signal is unremarkable without infarct, hemorrhage, mass, or mass effect. The ventricles and cortical sulci are normal in caliber configuration. The extra-axial spaces are unremarkable. There is normal dural venous sinus enhancement. The vascular flow voids are preserved. The orbits, calvarium, and soft tissues are unremarkable. There is no abnormal fluid signal within paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells, or middle ears. IMPRESSION: 1. Mild motion artifact requiring use of BLADE acquisition technique. 2. Questionable diffuse mild thickening of the cortical gray matter and indistinct gray-white interface seen only on the T2 and FLAIR sequences and appearing normal on the correlate T1 sequences, therefore likely due to motion and BLADE acquisition technique. Given the clinical setting, however an early encephalitis is not entirely excluded. Consider follow-up imaging if clinically warranted. 3. No acute infarct, hemorrhage, or mass. RECOMMENDATION(S): Close follow-up with MRI of the brain with and without contrast as clinically warranted is advised.

HISTORY: ___ male with history of stroke, ___. Here with altered mental status. TECHNIQUE: Contiguous axial images obtained from skullbase to vertex without intravenous contrast. Coronal and sagittal reformats were reviewed. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: There is no acute intra-axial or extra-axial hemorrhage, mass, midline shift, or territorial infarct. The gray-white matter differentiation is preserved. There is prominence of the ventricles and sulci compatible with volume loss. There is near-complete opacification of the left mastoid air cells and middle ear. The right mastoids and included paranasal sinuses are essentially clear the besides minimal mucosal thickening in the right maxillary sinus and ethmoid air cells. There is minimal asymmetry in the nasopharynx with fullness on the left. IMPRESSION: 1. No acute intracranial process. 2. Given mild asymmetry in the nasopharynx with fullness on the left and secondary left mastoid and middle ear opacification, direct visualization should be performed to exclude underlying lesion.

HISTORY: Confusion and left lower extremity cellulitis, worsening atraumatic shoulder pain with limited range of motion and tenderness to palpation. RIGHT SHOULDER, THREE VIEWS. Assessment of fine bony detail is moderately limited by overlying soft tissues and underpenetration. Allowing for this, no fracture or dislocation is detected involving the left shoulder. The AC joint is within normal limits,except for possible tiny spurs. Similarly, the glenohumeral joint is within normal limits, except for minimal spurring. No periarticular calcification is identified. There is suggestion of vascular plethora in the lung, but this could relate to lower inspiratory volumes. IMPRESSION: X-ray examination of the right shoulder within normal limits, except for minimal spurring about the AC and glenohumeral joints. Please see comment.
