EXAMINATION: CTA CHEST INDICATION: ___ multiple fx s/p fall, now s/p ORIF, tachypneic, tachycardia// Rule out PE TECHNIQUE: Axial multidetector CT images were obtained through the thorax after the uneventful administration of intravenous contrast. Reformatted coronal, sagittal, thin slice axial images, and oblique maximal intensity projection images were submitted to PACS and reviewed. DOSE: Total DLP (Body) = 512 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: Second opinion CT torso from outside hospital dated ___. FINDINGS: Cardiac size is within normal limits. There is moderate calcified atherosclerosis of the coronary arteries. No evidence of pericardial effusion. The aorta and its major branch vessels are patent, with no evidence of stenosis, occlusion, dissection, or aneurysmal formation. There is no evidence of penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer or aortic arch atheroma present. The pulmonary arteries are well opacified to the subsegmental level, with no evidence of filling defect within the main, right, left, lobar, segmental or subsegmental pulmonary arteries. The main and right pulmonary arteries are normal in caliber, and there is no evidence of right heart strain. There is no supraclavicular, axillary, mediastinal, or hilar lymphadenopathy. The thyroid gland appears heterogenous without definite thyroid nodules. No pericardial effusion. Pleural effusions are noted bilaterally, moderate on the right and small on the left with associated compressive atelectasis in the lower lungs. A 4 mm subpleural pulmonary nodule is demonstrated in the right middle lobe, (series 301, image 169). A 5 mm subpleural pulmonary nodule is also demonstrated in the right middle lobe, (series 301, image 167). The airways are patent to the subsegmental level without evidence of bronchial wall thickening. Limited images of the upper abdomen demonstrates a liver which is diffusely hypoenhancing when compared to the spleen suggesting diffuse hepatic steatosis. Bones: Osseous structures are diffusely osteopenic. Posterior spinal fusion is seen extending inferiorly from T9. There is an oblique oriented fracture extending anterior inferior corner of T5 through the body of T6 and T7. There is new alignment abnormality with posterior translation of 8 mm of T5 relative to T6. This finding is concerning for an unstable distraction injury and neurosurgical consult is advised. A fracture involving the T12 vertebral body is again noted, which given the presence of associated fixation hardware is likely subacute. Midbody sternal fracture appears unchanged. Bilateral proximal clavicular shaft fractures are again noted. Bilateral chronic appearing rib deformities are unchanged. IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of pulmonary embolism or aortic abnormality. 2. Unstable fractures of the thoracic spine extending from T5 through T7 with associated posterior translation measuring 8 mm. Neurosurgical consult advised. 3. Moderate right and small left pleural effusions with compressive lower lobe atelectasis. 4. Bilateral proximal clavicular shaft fractures. 5. Acute sternal body fracture. 6. Multiple chronic bilateral rib deformities. 7. There are 2 subpleural pulmonary nodules in the right middle lobe measuring 4-5 mm respectively. Attention on followup advised. RECOMMENDATION(S): Neuro surgical or ortho spine consult is recommended for the unstable fracture at T6-T7 with increased posterior translation. For incidentally detected multiple solid pulmonary nodules smaller than 6mm, no CT follow-up is recommended in a low-risk patient, and an optional CT follow-up in 12 months is recommended in a high-risk patient.

EXAMINATION: MR THORACIC SPINE W/O CONTRAST ___ MR ___ SPINE INDICATION: ___ year old man with interval increase in posterior translation of T6 on T7// interval increase in posterior translation of T6 on T7 interval increase in posterior translation of T6 on T7 TECHNIQUE: Sagittal imaging was performed with T2, T1, and STIR technique, followed by axial T2 imaging. COMPARISON: CTA chest ___, cervical spine MRI ___, CT torso ___ FINDINGS: When compared to CT torso ___, there is interval development of an acute fracture through the ossified anterior longitudinal ligament at T5-T6 extending through the T6 vertebral body and bilateral pedicles. This results in interval severe retrolisthesis T5 on T6, bony retropulsion of the posterior superior T6 vertebral body and retrolisthesis of the T6 vertebral body, and severe spinal canal narrowing, remodeling the cord. There is no definite cord signal abnormality. Additionally, there is disruption of the anterior and posterior longitudinal ligaments at this level. At C7, there is marrow edema and a linear transverse line compatible with an acute fracture, unchanged from MR cervical spine ___. Extending from the level of T1-T4, there is a T2 hypointense, T1 mildly hyperintense collection compatible with extramedullary hematoma, unchanged in size (4:8). The collection contacts the spinal cord at the level of T3. Surgical hardware extends from T9 through L1 and limits evaluation. There are background severe thoracic spine degenerative changes. This includes loss of intervertebral disc height (most notably at T6-T7), disc desiccation, disc bulge (resulting in contact of the spinal cord at T1), vertebral body disc height loss (most notably at T6 and T7), marrow signal changes, and joint osteophytosis. Other: Bilateral pleural effusions. Bilateral renal cysts. IMPRESSION: 1. Severe spinal canal narrowing at T5-T6, with remodeling of the cord without definite cord signal abnormality. This is secondary to a Chance type fracture of the ossified T5-T6 anterior longitudinal ligament with extension through the T6 vertebral body and bilateral pedicles with bony retropulsion and retrolisthesis of the posterosuperior T6 vertebral body. 2.

EXAMINATION: STROKE PROTOCOL (BRAIN W/O). INDICATION: History: ___ with left sided weakness, hx NMO.// CVA?. TECHNIQUE: Sagittal T1, axial FLAIR, axial T2, axial magnetic susceptibility and axial diffusion-weighted images were obtained through the brain. No contrast was administered. COMPARISON: CTA of the head and neck dated ___, prior MRI of the head dated ___. FINDINGS: There is no evidence of intracranial hemorrhage, mass, mass effect or shifting of the normally midline structures. The ventricles and sulci are slightly prominent, likely age related and involutional in nature. Periventricular and subcortical scattered areas of high-signal intensity are seen on FLAIR and T2 weighted images, which are nonspecific and may reflect changes due to small vessel disease. No diffusion abnormalities are detected. Punctate focus of susceptibility is identified in the midline (image 16, series 11), consistent with dural calcification as demonstrated on the concurrent head CTA. The major vascular flow voids are present and demonstrate normal distribution. The orbits are unremarkable, the paranasal sinuses and the mastoid air cells are clear. IMPRESSION: 1. There is no evidence of acute intracranial process hemorrhage or diffusion abnormalities to indicate acute/subacute ischemic changes. 2. Scattered foci of high signal intensity identified on FLAIR and T2 weighted images, distributed in the subcortical white matter, which are nonspecific and may reflect changes due to small vessel disease.

The thoracic and abdominal aorta are otherwise normal in caliber and without evidence of aneurysm or dissection.The celiac axis, SMA, bilateral renal arteries, and ___ are grossly patent. Atherosclerotic calcified and noncalcified mural calcifications are seen throughout the aorta and its major branches. The hepatic arterial anatomy is conventional. No active arterial extravasation within the chest, abdomen, or pelvis. CHEST: The thyroid is normal.No axillary, supraclavicular, mediastinal, or hilar lymph node enlargement. The heart and mediastinum are normal. Trace pericardial effusion.Right mainstem bronchus intubation. The airways are patent to the subsegmental levels. Ill-defined solid and ground-glass opacity within the right lower lobe is consistent with pneumonia. (4a: 38). No active arterial extravasation. A 0.8 x 0.5 cm (4a: 44) solid appearing nodule is seen within the left lower lobe. Nodularity in the RML on series 4a:41 likely represents scarring though given the change in density on CTA which follows blood pool, the possibility of a tiny aneurysm or AVM is considered. There are no adjacent bronchi which appear to communicate with this nodular lesion. Bibasilar atelectasis is noted. No pleural effusion or pneumothorax. ABDOMEN: Multiple arterially enhancing lesions are noted throughout the liver largest measuring 2.4 x 2.1 cm (4a: 52) within segment 8 which is hypodense on portal venous phase. Additional hepatic lesions demonstrate discontinuous peripheral filling most consistent with hemangiomas. The portal vein, SMA, and splenic vein are patent. No intra or extrahepatic biliary dilatation. The gallbladder, pancreas, and bilateral adrenal glands are normal.A 2.3 x 2.1 cm (4b: 250) hypodense lesion with discontinuous peripheral enhancement is most consistent with a splenic hemangioma. The kidneys enhance symmetrically. A 1.5 x 1.2 cm (4 b: 258) hypodensity within the interpolar region of the left kidney is intermediate in density. Additional subcentimeter hypodensities are seen within the left kidney, too small to characterize. The stomach is grossly unremarkable in appearance.The small and large bowel are normal in caliber and without evidence of wall thickening. The appendix is not visualized however no evidence acute appendicitis. Colonic diverticulosis is present without evidence of diverticulitis. No retroperitoneal or mesenteric lymph node enlargement by CT size criteria.No free abdominal fluid, abdominal wall hernia, or pneumoperitoneum.

The abdominal aorta is normal in caliber. Aortic and bi-iliac artery calcifications are noted. PELVIS CT: The bladder is collapsed around a Foley catheter. There is no free fluid in the pelvis. No pathologically enlarged pelvic lymph nodes are seen. BONE WINDOW: No suspicious lytic or blastic lesions are identified. Multilevel degenerative changes of the thoracolumbar spine are noted. IMPRESSION: 1. Circumferential gallbladder wall thickening and mild pericholecystic fat stranding, concerning for acute cholecystitis. HIDA correlation is advised. 2. Peripancreatic fat stranding, suggestive of acute pancreatitis. Correlation with serum lipase is recommended. 3. Biliary stents, one of which extends from the lower common duct into the duodenum and the other of which extends from the ampulla to the duodenojejunal junction. 4. Nonobstructing 14 mm left lower pole renal calculus, not significantly changed compared to CT from ___. 5. 2.5 cm right adrenal lesion, unchanged in size compared to CT from ___, likely an adenoma. 6. Hepatic steatosis. Pertinent findings were discussed with Dr. ___ by Dr. ___ at 2:40 p.m. via telephone on the day of the study. Impression point #1 was discussed in full with Dr. ___ by Dr. ___ at 5:37 p.m. via telephone on the day of the study.

CHEST RADIOGRAPH INDICATION: Post-ERCP, pancreatitis, evaluation for pulmonary edema or pleural effusions. COMPARISON: ___. FINDINGS: As compared to the previous radiograph, the pre-existing mild pulmonary edema has not increased in severity, nor extent. Although minimal pleural effusions are masqued by a large left ventricle on the left and ascending hemidiaphragm on the right, there is no indication for larger pleural effusions. No newly appeared parenchymal opacities. Unchanged course of the pacemaker leads.

HISTORY: ___ female patient with severe pancreatitis, cholecystitis and renal failure. Study requested to rule out obstruction. COMPARISON: Prior abdominal/pelvic CT from ___. FINDINGS: The right kidney measures 11.2 cm. The left kidney measures 12.6 cm. A small hypoechoic lesion measuring 1.7 x 1.4 x 1.3 cm is seen along the upper pole of right kidney, too small to characterize. There is a 13 mm non obstructive stone in the lower pole of the left kidney. There is no hydronephrosis or obstruction. Renal echogenicity and corticomedullary architecture is within normal limits. The bladder is collapsed due to the presence of a Foley catheter. IMPRESSION: 13 mm non-obstructive left kidney stone with no evidence of hydronephrosis.
