T2* Mapping Techniques
T2* mapping techniques has evolved significantly since their introduction in the early 2000s and a significant amount of evidence has been gathered to support their clinical routine use for iron…
Assessment of Aortic Stenosis by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Cardiac MR (CMR) imaging contributes uniquely to the comprehensive assessment and management of aortic stenosis (AS), beyond the information provided by transthoracic echocardiography. The severity of AS and subsequent ventricular…
Radiographic/MR Imaging Correlation of the Pediatric Knee Growth
Normal bone growth of the pediatric knee as well as normal variants of ossification result in different appearances that can be identified on imaging (radiography/MR imaging). Familiarity with these changes…
Radiographic/MR Imaging Correlation of Soft Tissues
MR imaging is nowadays regarded as the preferred imaging modality for evaluation of soft tissue lesions. As plain radiographs are often the first step in evaluation of musculoskeletal disorders, identification…
Imaging Features of Bone Tumors
Imaging bone tumors often causes uncertainty, especially outside dedicated sarcoma treatment centers. Conventional radiography remains the backbone of bone tumor diagnostics, but MR imaging has a role. Radiographs are crucial…
Pitfalls in Pediatric Trauma and Microtrauma
Fractures are common in children, although accurate diagnosis is confounded by mimics of fractures some of which are unique to the pediatric population. Such fracture mimics include developmental variations of…
Conventional Radiography of the Hip Revisited
This review proposes a structured approach to analyzing conventional radiographs of adult hips by focusing on alterations of radiological bone density, femoral head contours, and the joint space. Conventional radiography…
Anteroposterior Radiograph of the Ankle with Cross-Sectional Imaging Correlation
The focus of this article is to illustrate various pathologic entities and variants, heralding disease about the ankle, based on scrutiny of AP radiographs of the ankle, with correlative findings…
Joint Effusion and Bone Outlines of the Knee
Knee radiographs are widely used in clinical practice. Many features can be depicted when a systematic analysis of the different views is performed. This article focuses on different types of…
Radiographic/MR Imaging Correlation of Paravertebral Ossifications in Ligaments and Bony Vertebral Outgrowths
This article focuses on the variety of imaging features of paravertebral ossifications that are of practical interest in the diagnosis of diseases. The spinal anatomy is reviewed and correlated to…
