EXAMINATION: CT abdomen and pelvis with IV contrast INDICATION: ___ year old woman with pancreatic cancer, PCT biliary drain with nausea and vomiting TECHNIQUE: MDCT axial images were acquired through abdomen and pelvis following intravenous contrast administration with split bolus technique. DOSE: DLP: 878 mGy-cm (abdomen and pelvis. IV Contrast: 150 mL Omnipaque COMPARISON: MRCP ___. CT abdomen from ___. FINDINGS: CHEST: With the exception of mild dependent atelectasis, the visualized lung bases are clear. No pleural effusion. The heart size is normal, and there is small amount of pericardial fluid (2:4) similar to prior. ABDOMEN: The liver enhances homogeneously, and there are no suspicious focal lesions. Patient is status post cholecystectomy. A PTC drain is visualized and there is pneumobilia in the left lobe. The spleen and adrenal glands are normal. There is normal enhancement of the kidneys, and symmetrical excretion of contrast is noted. The known pancreatic head mass measures approximately in 3.2 x 1.6 cm (TV x AP), grossly unchanged compared to the prior MRCP dated ___. Two fluid collections are noted in close association with pancreas; The first is a heterogeneous predominately hypodense attenuation with peripheral areas of higher density and appearance of septations measuring 6.5 x 5.9 x 5.8 cm. It involves the body of the pancreas and peripancreatic soft tissues (2:27), and has the appearance of walled-off necrosis. A second homogeneous hypodense collection is seen adjacent the gastric fundus measures 7.9 x 6.5 x 5.5 cm (2:18), most compatible with a pseudocyst. This fluid collection causes mass effect with narrowing of the gastric lumen. Given recent episode of acute pancreatitis and relative short interval developed of these findings since the prior study, these findings are most suggestive of complications of pancreatitis, and less likely due to tumor progression. The small and large bowel are normal in caliber, and there is no focal wall thickening. Diverticulosis is noted without diverticulitis. The appendix is normal. No ascites. No pneumoperitoneum. Atherosclerotic calcifications are noted throughout the abdominal aorta and iliac branches. The aorta is normal in course and caliber. The celiac axis, SMA, renal arteries, and ___ appear patent. Compared to the prior CT on ___, the splenic artery appears attenuated where it courses posterior to the complex fluid collection in the body of the pancreas, most notable on series 2, image 28; however, it appears patent. Of note, varices adjacent to the greater curvature of the stomach are more apparent. There is a 2.2 x 0.9 cm heterogeneous partially low density structure posteromedial to the complex fluid collection (2:30), lateral to the SMA, which may be inflammatory in nature although metastatic involvement and subsequent necrotic node cannot be excluded. This is new since prior CT from ___. PELVIS: The bladder is mildly distended. The uterus is not visualized. No adnexal abnormalities are identified. No free fluid within the pelvis. MUSCULOSKELETAL: Degenerative changes are noted throughout the lower thoracic and lumbar spine. Degenerative changes including partial fusion seen at the SI joints. There are no lytic or sclerotic bony lesions that are concerning for malignancy. IMPRESSION: 1. No small bowel obstruction. No pneumoperitoneum. 2. A complex fluid collection involving the body of the pancreas is compatible with walled off necrosis. A second homogeneous fluid collection adjacent to with secondary mass effect on the stomach, is likely a pseudocyst. Given short interval development of these findings and recent episode of acute pancreatitis, these findings are most likely complications of acute pancreatitis and less likely due to tumor progression. 3. A 2.2 x 0.7 cm low-density soft tissue structure adjacent to the SMA, new since ___, is also most likely inflammatory, although followup will be necessary as metastatic involvement cannot be excluded. 4. Known pancreatic head mass grossly unchanged. 5. A portion of the splenic vein appears attenuated due to mass effect from adjacent changes of pancreatitis.

HISTORY: ___ year old man with recent worsening of lower extremity strength, peripheral neuropathy. Infection with significant worsening ___ strength. COMPARISON: MRI thoracic and lumbar spine dated ___. TECHNIQUE: Multi sequence multi planar imaging of the thoracic and lumbar spine was performed both prior to and following the intravenous administration of 8 mL Gadavist as per standard department protocol. FINDINGS: Thoracic spine: Compared to the prior examination, the bone marrow signal is now abnormal with new heterogeneous hypointensity on the T1 sequence. T1 and T2 hyperintense lesions in the T8 and T9 vertebral bodies which partially suppress on the STIR sequence, likely reflecting hemangiomas, are unchanged from the prior examination. The vertebral body heights and alignments are normal. Intervertebral discs show loss of signal and height at several levels, with Schmorl's nodes in the inferior endplates of the T5 and T6 vertebral bodies. There is no epidural or paraspinal fluid collection, and no marrow edema or disc signal changes to suggest discitis/osteomyelitis. The spinal cord is normal in signal intensity and morphology. There is no evidence of spinal cord compression. There is a moderate right pleural effusion. The paraspinal soft tissues are normal. Lumbar spine: The bone marrow is heterogeneous and hypointense on T1 sequence, with an unchanged T1 and T2 hyperintense lesion in the L4 vertebral body likely representing a hemangioma. The vertebral heights and alignments are normal. There is mild loss of intervertebral disc height, with Schmorl's nodes in the L1, L2, and L3 superior end plates. The distal spinal cord and conus medullaris are normal in appearance, with the conus terminating at L1. The paraspinal soft tissues are unremarkable. There is no abnormal enhancement. From T12-L1 through L2-L3, there is no significant disc bulge or spinal canal or neural foraminal narrowing. At L3-L4, there is a diffuse disc bulge with a left foraminal component which has increased in size from the prior examination, as well as facet degenerative changes resulting in mild bilateral neural foraminal narrowing, left more than right. At L4-5, there is a diffuse bulge with left paracentral protrusion, similar to the prior examination, with facet degenerative changes narrowing the left subarticular zone with contact of the traversing L5 nerve root and in mild bilateral left greater than right neural foraminal narrowing without significant narrowing of the spinal canal. At L5-S1, there is a diffuse disc bulge with annular tear and left paracentral protrusion without significant narrowing of the spinal canal. There is minimal left neural foraminal narrowing. IMPRESSION: 1. New diffuse bone marrow signal abnormality with heterogeneous hypointensity on the T1 sequence. This may be seen in the setting of red marrow reconversion with chronic anemia or other marrow replacement processes such as multiple myeloma or diffuse metastasis. Correlation with laboratory values is recommended. 2. No evidence of epidural abscess or discitis/osteomyelitis. No evidence of spinal cord compression. 3. Mild lumbar spine degenerative changes as described above have mildly progressed from the prior examination. 4. Moderate right pleural effusion.

INDICATION: ___ year old woman with Hep C cirrhosis, being worked up for liver transplant. // Assess for ___, pre-transplant workup TECHNIQUE: T1- and T2-weighted multiplanar images of the abdomen were acquired in a 1.5 T magnet. Intravenous contrast: Gadavist 8 cc. COMPARISON: Ultrasound from ___. FINDINGS: This study is limited due to motion artifact. Liver: There is minimal bibasilar atelectasis. The liver is nodular in contour with increased reticular enhancement compatible with cirrhosis and fibrosis. The main portal vein is patent. There are no arterially enhancing lesions identified.The gallbladder is not visualized. Note is made of a recannalized paraumbilical vein and multiple paraesophageal and gastric varices. There is trace perihepatic and perisplenic ascites. Biliary: There is no intra or extrahepatic biliary dilation. Pancreas: The pancreas is of normal signal intensity without any focal lesions or ductal dilation. Spleen: The spleen is enlarged measuring 15.9 cm. Adrenal Glands: The adrenal glands are unremarkable. Kidneys: The kidneys enhance excrete contrast symmetrically without any focal lesions or hydronephrosis. Gastrointestinal Tract: The visualized small and large bowel loops are unremarkable. Lymph Nodes: Multiple periportal lymph nodes are enlarged including a 2.1 x 2.0 cm lymph node (series 12, image 46). Inferiorly adjacent to the IVC another lymph node measures 1.9 x 1.5 cm. Vasculature: The aorta is normal caliber without evidence of aneurysm. Its major branch are patent. IMPRESSION: 1. Limited exam due to motion. No arterially enhancing lesions are identified. 2.

EXAMINATION: CT CHEST W/CONTRAST INDICATION: ___ year old woman with SIADH and smoking history, concern for lung CA // ? mass/cancer TECHNIQUE: Multi detector helical scanning of the chest was coordinated with intravenous infusion of nonionic iodinated contrast agent and reconstructed as 5 and 1.25 mm thick axial, 2.5 mm thick coronal and parasagittal, and 8 mm MIP axial images. DOSAGE: TOTAL DLP 540mGy-cm COMPARISON: Chest radiograph ___. FINDINGS: Enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes are present. In the bilateral paratracheal, precarinal and subcarinal nodal stations, the latter extending into the azygos esophageal recess. Additional cluster of nodes is present in the pericardial region. A representative lymph node in the lower left paratracheal region measures 1.3 x 1.4 cm (76, 4). The esophagus is difficult to assess without oral contrast, but demonstrates a mass-like thickening just above the diaphragm, in a region surrounded by apparent esophageal varices. Heart size is normal, and there is no pericardial or pleural effusion. Assessment of the lungs is limited by submaximal inspiratory level, reducing sensitivity for small pulmonary nodules and subtle interstitial lung disease. Note is made of minimal apical emphysema. Dependent areas of atelectasis are present in both lung bases. No suspicious nodule or mass is evident is suggest a primary lung cancer. Exam was not tailored for the sub- diaphragmatic assessment, but note is made of cirrhotic liver, splenomegaly, small volume ascites, varices, upper abdominal lymph nodes and diffuse soft tissue stranding of the mesentery These findings will be more fully assessed along with more complete characterization of the liver by concurrently performed MRI of the abdomen from the same date. Skeletal structures of the thorax demonstrate no suspicious lytic or blastic lesions. IMPRESSION: 1. No CT evidence of suspicious lung nodule or mass to suggest a primary non-small cell lung cancer as a cause of paraneoplastic syndrome. 2. Diffuse mediastinal lymphadenopathy is a nonspecific finding that could be due to inflammatory, infectious or neoplastic etiology. If warranted clinically, correlated PET-CT imaging could be performed. 3. Masslike appearance of lower thoracic esophagus, difficult to assess in the absence of oral contrast. This may be secondary to extensive paraesophageal varices, but correlative barium swallow may be helpful to exclude an intrinsic esophageal abnormality if warranted clinically. 4. Cirrhotic liver and sequela of portal hypertension, which will be more fully assessed on concurrent MRI of the abdomen, performed the same date and dictated separately.

EXAMINATION: CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST INDICATION: A ___ man with a fall,, thrombocytopenia, evaluate for intracranial hemorrhage or maxillofacial fractures. TECHNIQUE: Contiguous axial images of the brain were obtained without contrast. Coronal and sagittal as well as thin bone-algorithm reconstructed images were obtained. DOSE: Total DLP (Head) = 1,003 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: There is no evidence of acute infarction, hemorrhage, edema, mass, or mass effect. The basal cisterns are patent, and there is no shift of normally midline structures. Hypodensities involving the right external capsule and the anterior limb of the left internal capsule may represent sequelae of prior/old lacunar infarcts. Mild prominence of the ventricles and sulci is compatible with age related involutional change. Periventricular white matter hypodensity is compatible with the sequelae of chronic small vessel ischemia. Multiple facial fractures are seen. In particular, there is a comminuted fracture of the nasal bone anteriorly, (series 3, image 4), as well as a more posterior displaced/angulated fracture of the nasal septum (series 3, image 1). Although not clearly seen on this exam, there may be of fractures through the inferomedial wall of the right orbit (series 3, image 9) simple this is better evaluated on same-day CT facial bones. Hyperdense fluid and small foci of air fills the right maxillary sinus, compatible with acute blood products. A smaller amount of layering hyperdense material is seen in the left maxillary sinus as well as filling the paranasal sinuses and partially opacifying the frontal sinuses and ethmoid air cells. There is partial left mastoid air cell opacification, but no fracture is seen. The right mastoid air cells are clear. There is no evidence of calvarial fracture. Bilateral carotid siphon calcifications are noted. The globes appear intact. IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of intracranial hemorrhage or acute infarction. 2. Multiple facial bone fractures, at least including the nasal bone, the nasal septum, and likely the inferomedial wall of the right bony orbit/lamina papyracea.

Ultrasound images of the access were stored on PACS. Prompt return of urine confirmed appropriate positioning. Injection of a small amount of contrast outlined a dilated renal collecting system. Under fluoroscopic guidance, a Nitinol wire was advanced into the renal collecting system. After a skin ___, the needle was exchanged for an Accustick sheath. Once the tip of the sheath was in the collecting system; the sheath was advanced over the wire, inner dilator and metallic stiffener. The wire and inner dilator were then removed and diluted contrast was injected into the collecting system to confirm position. A ___ wire was advanced through the sheath and coiled in the collecting system. The sheath was then removed and a 8 ___ nephrostomy tube was advanced into the renal collecting system. The wire was then removed and the pigtail was formed in the collecting system. Contrast injection confirmed appropriate positioning. The catheter was then flushed, 0 silk stay sutures applied and the catheter was secured with a Stat Lock device and sterile dressings. The catheter was attached to a bag. FINDINGS: Appropriately placed 8 ___ left-sided percutaneous nephrostomy. IMPRESSION: Successful placement of 8 ___ nephrostomy on the right. RECOMMENDATION(S): Percutaneous nephrostomy catheter most remain attached to bag drainage.

EXAMINATION: CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST INDICATION: History: ___ with fall// eval for bleed TECHNIQUE: Contiguous axial images from skullbase to vertex were obtained without intravenous contrast. Coronal and sagittal reformations and bone algorithms reconstructions were also performed. DOSE: Acquisition sequence: 1) Sequenced Acquisition 18.0 s, 19.5 cm; CTDIvol = 46.4 mGy (Head) DLP = 903.1 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Head) = 903 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: There is no evidence of acute large territorial infarction, intracranial hemorrhage, edema, or mass. There is prominence of the ventricles and sulci suggestive of age-related cerebral volume loss. Periventricular and subcortical white matter hypodensities are nonspecific, though likely sequelae of chronic small vessel ischemic disease. Atherosclerotic vascular calcifications are noted of bilateral vertebral and cavernous portions of internal carotid arteries. There is evidence of a right occipital craniotomy. Otherwise, no acute osseous abnormalities seen. The partially imaged paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells, and middle ear cavities are clear. The orbits demonstrate no acute abnormalities. IMPRESSION: No acute intracranial process. No evidence of acute intracranial hemorrhage or fracture.
