INDICATION: Known lung cancer, presenting with new AFib, shortness of breath, chest pain. Assess for pulmonary embolism. COMPARISON: Comparison is made to CT chest with contrast performed ___. TECHNIQUE: Intravenous contrast was administered and arterial phase imaging was acquired through the chest. Coronal, sagittal and oblique reformats provided. FINDINGS: Compared to next preceding study of ___, there is stable significant lymphadenopathy with representative measurements including a left peripectoral lymph node conglomerate measuring 3.2 x 1.7 cm (2:16). A right subpectoral lymph node measuring 13 mm (2:25) as well as stable severe mediastinal lymphadenopathy with representative measurements including a right upper paratracheal lymph node measuring 14 x 18 mm (2:19), as well as a right lower paratracheal lymph node measuring 14 x 18 mm (2:32). There has been interval near complete collapse of the right lung with abrupt ___ of the right upper lung bronchus and right bronchus intermedius. The extent of the right hilar mass is poorly evaluated due to adjacent collapsed lung but given its proximity to mass better evaluated on prior examination, suspect that the right bronchus intermedius if not both main bronchial occlusions are due to direct tumor ingrowth. In addition, there is also progressive occlusion of the right descending pulmonary artery as it crosses the newly occluded bronchus intermedius with worsening severe impingement of the posteroinferior aspect of the invaded artery (2:47). Despite the invasion of the pulmonary artery, there is no evidence of pulmonary embolus, bland or malignant. Apart from minimal calcified atherosclerotic disease, the aorta is unremarkable. The heart is normal in size and demonstrates a stable if not minimally increased moderate pericardial effusion. However, there is no collapse of the right atrium, nor coronary sinus, nor enlargement of the superior or inferior vena cava to suggest tamponade. There is no definite infiltration of the epicardial fat, though evaluation is somewhat limited by motion. On the left, there is a new small non-hemorrhagic layering pleural effusion with minimal associated atelectasis. However, the most significant interval change on the left is development of approximately 27 x 21 mm irregular peribronchiolar opacifications within the lingula at the site of previously millimetric nodules. Multiple other millimetric nodules are also slightly increased in size, particularly in the anterior aspect of the lingula (3:98). There is increased beaded septal thickening as well as beading of the pleural surfaces, concerning for lymphangitic spread of malignancy. Dense calcified pleural plaques, particularly in the left lung base are longstanding and thought to be related to asbestosis. Limited assessment of the upper abdomen demonstrates marked elevation of the right hemidiaphragm consistent with lobar collapse. In addition, incompletely assessed intra-abdominal retroperitoneal and mesenteric lymphadenopathy is evident, including a stable large right retrocrural lymph node measuring 11 mm. No suspicious lytic or blastic lesions present. IMPRESSION: 1. Interval progression of malignant disease with new complete right lung consolidation and occlusion of the central right upper lobe bronchus as well as bronchus intermedius, with at least the latter likely due to direct tumor invasion. Worsening severe attenuation and invasion of the right main pulmonary artery, but no large pulmonary embolus identified. 2. Increased size of left lingular peribronchiolar opacifications, previously millimetric nodules, concerning for metastatic disease. In addition, increased beading of the interlobular septa and pleural surfaces concerning for lymphangitic spread. 3. New small left layering non-complex pleural effusion. 4. Stable small to moderate pericardial effusion without evidence of cardiac tamponade.

INDICATION: History of gastric cancer on chemotherapy, now with right-sided flank pain, evaluate for stone. COMPARISON: PET-CT ___ and CT abdomen and pelvis ___. TECHNIQUE: MDCT axial images were obtained from the dome of the liver to the pubic symphysis after the uneventful administration of 130 mL of Omnipaque. Coronal and sagittal reformations were provided and reviewed. ABDOMEN: The visualized lung bases are clear without nodules. There is no pleural effusion or pneumothorax. The imaged heart is unremarkable. The liver contour is normal. A subcentimeter hypodensity in the lateral portion of segment II is unchanged and is too small to characterize but likely represents a cyst. The stomach wall is slightly thickened particularly distally, and there has been loss of the normal rugal folds, consistent with known diagnosis of linitis plastica. The gallbladder is normal and there is no intrahepatic biliary duct dilatation. The spleen, pancreas and adrenal glands are unremarkable. There is no free air. There is small amount of ascites. There is a non-specific haziness to the omentum. No retroperitoneal or mesenteric lymphadenopathy is seen. There is mild atherosclerosis about the abdominal aorta. Incidental note is made of a duplicated right renal artery. There is mild hydronephrosis and hydroureter in the right kidney, not seen on the prior exams. The dilated right ureter can only be traced to its mid portion, and is not well seen distally. There is no evidence of nephrolithiasis or ureterolithiasis. Although there is slight hyperenhancement of the right ureteral wall within its mid segment, possibly due to inflammation, a stricture or more subtle underlying ureteral lesion cannot be fully excluded. A ureteral stent is seen within the left kidney with the proximal portion in the lower pole and the distal portion coiled in the bladder. No hydronephrosis or hydroureter is seen on the left. The kidneys enhance symmetrically. PELVIS: The bladder is full without calculi or masses. Again noted is an enlarged uterus, consistent with multiple small fibroids. A small amount of free fluid is again seen within the pelvis. There is prominence to the left ovarian veins and dilatation of the left gonadal vein, raising the possibility of pelvic congestion syndrome. The appendix is not visualized; however, there are no secondary signs of appendicitis. The rectum and sigmoid are normal. BONES: There are no suspicious osseous lesions. IMPRESSION: 1. New right sided mild hydronephroureter. Dilated ureter can only be traced to its midportion where slight enhancement of the ureteral walls may be due to inflammation. Findings may be due to a mid ureteral stricture or subtle ureteral lesion and further characterization may be performed with MR urography or direct visualization. Urologic consult is recommended. 2. Left ureteral stent appears to be in appropriate position. 3. Mildly thickened gastric wall compatible with known diagnosis of gastric cancer. Haziness of the omentum which is non-specific but attention on followup studies is recommended. 4. Trace amount of simple free pelvic fluid and ascites. 5. Left sided pelvic varices and dilated left gonadal vein can be seen with pelvic congestion syndrome and clinical correlation is recommended.

HISTORY: Bladder cancer, radical cystectomy with neobladder creation, now with fever, insufficient opened at bedside. TECHNIQUE: Multidetector CT imaging was performed from the hemidiaphragms through to the pubic symphysis during intravenous contrast administration. Sagittal and coronal reformatted images were also generated. CT OF THE ABDOMEN WITH CONTRAST, FINDINGS: Current study is compared to a prior contrast-enhanced study of ___, from an outside institution as well as the CT cystogram performed on ___ at this institution. Lung bases demonstrate some pleural parenchymal scarring or atelectasis bilaterally. The liver demonstrates two well-delineated hypodense areas, one in segment II, a second in segment V, both compatible with simple cysts and unchanged. Within segment V, there is also a well-delineated but irregular shaped vascular blush. This demonstrates a feeding portal branch as well as a draining hepatic vein. This either represents a flash hemangioma or a congenital AV malformation, which has now associated consequences such as parenchymal loss. The gallbladder appears unremarkable. There is no free fluid, no significant adenopathy. Some atherosclerotic disease of the aorta and its branches. The visualized loops of large and small bowel appear normal. The pancreas also appears unremarkable as do both adrenal glands. The kidneys, most notably on the left, demonstrate a striated nephrogram. There is some lack of corticomedullary delineation involving much of the superior pole of the left kidney. There is also a subtle area of lack of delineation involving the superior pole on the right. Multiple more areas on the left than the right. Findings are most consistent with bilateral pyelonephritis, left to a greater extent than the right. There is no hydronephrosis and no perirenal abnormalities. CT OF THE PELVIS WITH CONTRAST, FINDINGS: Again appreciated is atherosclerotic disease of the aorta and its branches. Recent percutaneous catheter decompressing this patient's neobladder has been removed with remaining ghost track. There are expected postoperative changes along the ghost track. There is fairly prominent right inguinal lymph node measuring 12 mm and minimum ___, just adjacent to the common femoral vein (series 3, image 72). This was present on the prior outside study but has increased somewhat in size and attention to this area on followup is warranted. There is no free fluid in the pelvis, there is no significant internal iliac adenopathy on either the left or right. The iliac nodal dissection clips are seen. The visualized large and small bowel appear normal. Bone windows demonstrate significant degenerative changes only. IMPRESSION: 1. Loss of corticomedullary delineation involving both kidneys, most marked on the left. Findings consistent with bilateral pyelonephritis, left greater than right. This overall appears uncomplicated without any associated abscess or perirenal abnormality. 2. Flash hemangioma versus arteriovenous malformation involving the liver as described, no sequela, this is likely congenital and unchanged compared to the prior outside study. 3. No confirmed on a prior No evidence of pelvic fluid to suggest leak from this patient's neobladder. 4. Mildly prominent right inguinal lymph node adjacent to the common femoral vein. Not meeting size criteria for pathologic enlargement but has increased in size compared to the prior exams and therefore attention to this area on followup is warranted. Open midline incision, appearing overall, unremarkable.

There is internal soft plaque bilaterally with mild to moderate stenosis of the right common and external iliac artery (3a:112) and mild stenosis of the left external iliac artery (3a:128). Atherosclerotic mural calcifications are seen throughout the aorta and its major branches. Hepatic arterial anatomy is conventional. Assessment of the venous vasculature is limited by the timing of contrast. CTA LOWER EXTREMITIES: On the right, there is an unchanged ectasia of the common femoral artery measuring 1.8 x 1.7 cm (3a:150) at the graft anastamosis. There is complete occlusion of the right superficial femoral artery which contains a stent graft extending to the level of the popliteal artery. There is reconstitution of the popliteal artery through collaterals from the deep femoral artery, with diminished caliber. A three-vessel runoff is demonstrated proximally, but there is severe attenution of the anterior tibial, posterior tibial, and peroneal arteries until the distal third of the lower leg where the peroneal artery and posterior tibial artery are no longer opacified. The dorsalis pedis is diminutive. There has been prior amputation of the right forefoot. On the left are two grafts extending from the common femoral artery, both of which are occluded, one within the superficial femoral artery terminating in the distal medial thigh, and a femoral-to-anterior tibial artery bypass. The bypass graft demonstrates two insertions into the anterior tibial artery (3a:334, 390), with both limbs completely occluded. There is mild stenosis at the graft insertion site of the left common femoral artery. There is reconstitution of the popliteal artery, which is diminutive, via collaterals from the deep femoral artery. A three-vessel runoff is demonstrated with moderate attention of the anterior tibial, peroneal and posterior tibial arteries until the mid lower leg, where the anterior tibial artery is partially obscured by the lower portion of the femoral-AT bypass. The posterior tibial artery is opacified throughout its course mild irregular attenuation along the distal portion. The peroneal artery is opacified to the level of the ankle joint. The dorsalis pedis artery is patent. ABDOMEN: Evaluation is limited by the arterial phase of image acquisition. The liver is steatotic with no concerning focal lesion. The gallbladder and biliary tree are normal. In the pancreas, there is an unchanged 7 mm hypodense lesion that may represent an IPMN (03:31). The spleen is normal in size, without focal lesion. The adrenal glands are normal. In the kidneys, there is unchanged right upper pole renal cyst and another 2 left renal hypo enhancing lesions that may also represent cysts (3a:24, 3a:34, 3a:68). There may be a small duodenum diverticulum involving the second stage of the duodenum ( 3a:51). There is colonic diverticulosis. The small bowel and large bowel are normal in caliber, without wall thickening or mass. There is no intra- or retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy. There is no ascites, fluid collection, or pneumoperitoneum. PELVIS: The urinary bladder is without wall thickening or mass. The rectum is unremarkable.

EXAMINATION: CTA AORTA/BIFEM/ILIAC RUNOFF INDICATION: ___ year old man with pulseless limb// assess arterial flow to bilateral lower etremities TECHNIQUE: Non-contrast and post-contrast CTA images were acquired through the chest, abdomen and pelvis, with lower extremity runoff. Oral contrast was not administered. MIP and 3D reconstructions were performed on independent workstation and reviewed on PACS. DOSE: Total DLP (Body) = 2,195 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: CT abdomen and pelvis with runoff ___ FINDINGS: CTA CHEST ABDOMEN PELVIS: Reflux of contrast within veins of the right chest wall reflect IJ occlusion around the Port-A-Cath. A tiny filling defect is noted adjacent to the tip of the Port-A-Cath in the ___, series 301, image 39. Thoracic aorta is normal in course and caliber with mild atherosclerotic calcification. Coronary artery calcification is moderate. Main pulmonary artery and central branches appear patent. The celiac artery origin is patent with conventional anatomy. The SMA artery origin is patent. Both renal arteries are widely patent at their origin. The ___ appears slightly narrowed at its origin. There is been prior aortoiliac stent graft with chronically occluded left common iliac limb. The stent extends from the aortic bifurcation along the course of the external iliac artery. The stent excludes the internal iliac arteries which appear chronically occluded at their origins from the right and left common iliac artery. There is evidence of collateral flow within the right and left internal iliac arteries, with contrast seen just beyond their origin from the common iliacs. LEFT LOWER EXTREMITY CTA RUNOFF: There is occlusion of the left superficial femoral artery as well as the stents and bypass graft is in the left leg. The profundus femora is is occluded at its origin though there is collateral flow which appears to be supplied by branches from the ilio lumbar and left internal iliac arteries. There is flow within the upper calf at the level of the trifurcation supplied by collateral branches from the profundus circulation. However, flow in the left anterior tibial artery appears markedly attenuated at the level of the lower leg/ankle region. On the delayed series, flow within the left anterior tibial artery remains attenuated. RIGHT LOWER EXTREMITY CTA RUNOFF: At the distal aspect of the right external iliac artery which is stented, the lumen is markedly narrowed though this is similar to prior. Just distal to this point, there is focal aneurysmal dilation of the right common femoral artery, similar to the prior exam, measuring up to 19 x 18 mm, series 301, image 231. The right common femoral artery gives rise to a patent profundus femoris, however the fem-pop bypass stent is occluded. There is minimal flow within the native right superficial femoral artery to the level of the popliteal artery which is primarily supplied by branches of the profundus femora is. There is a patent 3 vessel runoff into the right calf though flow appears attenuated likely reflecting inflow stenosis. Again noted is amputation of the right forefoot. CHEST: Paramediastinal fibrosis likely reflect prior radiation treatment. Prominence of anterior mediastinal lymph nodes for instance on series 301, image 39, with these nodes measuring up to 12 mm in short axis dimension. A pretracheal lymph node measures up to 11 mm in short axis on series 301, image 42. A superior mediastinal lymph node measures 9 mm in short axis on series 301, image 31. The heart appears within normal limits of size. No pleural or pericardial effusion. Multiple bilateral pulmonary nodules measure up to 8 mm (301:49) in the right lower lobe. Mild fat stranding in the left axilla is noted, with several mildly prominent lymph nodes which are likely reactive. Port-A-Cath over the right chest wall with right IJ access terminates in the mid SVC. A small thrombus is seen within the SVC likely adherent to the catheter, series 301 images 38 through 40. ABDOMEN: The liver appears grossly unremarkable. The spleen, gallbladder, and adrenals are unremarkable. Renal hypodensities most likely represent simple cysts, the largest of which is seen arising from the upper pole right kidney measuring 4.3 x 4.0 cm. No adenopathy, free air or free fluid. The stomach and duodenum appear normal. Cystic lesions within the proximal body of the pancreas appear similar to the prior exam and can be further evaluated by MRCP if not already performed. The stomach is decompressed. The duodenum appears normal. PELVIS: Loops of small bowel demonstrate no signs of ileus or obstruction. Diverticulosis of the colon is noted without diverticulitis. The appendix is not visualized though there are no secondary signs of appendicitis. Urinary bladder is well distended appearing normal. No pelvic free fluid. No adenopathy along the pelvic sidewall or inguinal region. BONES: There is no evidence of worrisome osseous lesions or acute fracture. Evidence of prior right forefoot amputation. SOFT TISSUES: Multiple subcutaneous nodules overlying the anterior abdominal wall measuring up to 2.1 cm are new since ___, may be injection related. IMPRESSION: 1. Abnormal CTA runoff with chronic occlusion of the stented left external iliac artery and severe narrowing of the stented right external iliac artery distally. Occluded stent and bypass graft in the lower extremities. Flow preserved through the lower extremities due to collateral flow on the right from the patent profundus femoris and on the left through left external iliac artery collaterals supplying the profundus femoris, which in turn supplies the popliteal artery and calf branches. Significant attenuation of the left anterior tibial artery. 2. Pancreatic cystic lesions measuring up to 1.0 cm branch IPMNs. MRCP advised in the absence of prior work-up. 3. Multiple bilateral pulmonary nodules measuring up to 8 mm. See ___ guidelines below. Prominent mediastinal lymph nodes can also be further assessed at the time of follow-up chest CT. 4. Chronic occlusion of the right internal jugular vein surrounding the porta catheter. Tiny thrombus in the SVC, likely adherent to the Port-A-Cath tip. RECOMMENDATION(S): MRCP. For incidentally detected multiple solid pulmonary nodules measuring 6 to 8mm, a CT follow-up in 3 to 6 months is recommended in a low-risk patient, with an optional CT follow-up in 18 to 24 months. In a high-risk patient, both a CT follow-up in 3 to 6 months and in 18 to 24 months is recommended.
