Skin metastases have non-specific clinical appearances, making it challenging to differentiate them from other benign conditions [1]. We present a case of a 52-year-old female with type II diabetes and a three-month history of refractory skin lesions who did not respond to anti-inflammatory treatment. The patient subsequently complained of a right breast lump, evaluation of which led to the diagnosis of bilateral synchronous invasive lobular carcinoma.

Tomosynthesis and ultrasound are used as additional imaging tools to compensate the lower sensitivity of 2D mammography when examining a dense breast. This study compares the diagnostic performance of 50° wide-angle digital breast tomosynthesis (wide-angle DBT) to hand-held breast ultrasound (HHUS) in the evaluation of probably benign and malignant breast lesions in dense breast. Patients and Methods: A retrospective review of 131 women with dense breasts (ACR C and D) was conducted during a 12-months period (October 2018 -October 2019). Out of the 131 women; 40 cases (30.5%) were reported to have 64 probably benign and malignant lesions (BI-RADS 3, 4 and 5) detected by combined wide-angle DBT and HHUS. Patients with negative results (BI-RADS 1) or typically benign lesions (BI-RADS 2) were excluded from this study. Median age for the included 40 cases=46.8 years (range =30-67). Women...

Background CKD is recognized as a major public health problem in which there is progressive loss in renal function over a period of months or years. FGF23 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FGF23 gene. FGF23 is a member of the FGF family which is responsible for phosphate metabolism. Patients and methods This study was conducted on 73 patients with CKD (with its five stages) and 15 age-matched and sex-matched healthy individuals as a control group. All patients were subjected to full history taking, clinical examination, and laboratory investigations. FGF23 was measured for all the study participants using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay technique. Results FGF23 expression increased gradually with increased degree of CKD than in controls. Conclusion There is increased expression of FGF23 in the serum of patients with CKD with its 5°.

Patients with known primary tumors require meticulous evaluation to assess metastasis for better staging; we attempted to detect bony metastasis without radiation exposure. Our study's goal was to use whole-body diffusion-weighted imaging with background body signal suppression (WB-DWBIS) to evaluate bony metastasis in confirmed patients who have primary tumors. Results Our study included 90 patients with known primary cancer, 10 patients were excluded as they had no bony metastasis, from 80 patients: 36 (45.0%) having one site of metastasis, 36 (45%) having two sites of metastasis, and 8 (10.0%) having three sites of metastasis. 56 (70.0%) of the metastasis sites were bony metastasis, and 76 were mixed both bony and non-bony, including 32(40.0%) lung, 16 (20.0%) liver, and 28 (35%) lymph nodes. Sensitivity of bone scanning in detecting metastasis was as follows: ...

Few studies had focused on post-COVID19 complications detection using multi-slice CT scans. Our trial aimed to assess the value of cardiac CT utility during the COVID-19 pandemic for the detection of cardiac complications and correlation with the severity scoring system for chest manifestations. Since the beginning of COVID-19 outbreak, cardiac computed tomography (CT) had a sudden increased value and use with a huge reduction in face-to-face patient care and elective diagnostic testing. This study started from May 2021 to April 2022 in a single cardiac CT centre. This prospective cohort trial was conducted on 40 patients proved to have COVID-19 infection by positive RT-PCR test for COVID-19 and/or CT chest manifestations. CT results were reviewed and compared to echocardiography and/or catheterization data. Results: In the CT severity score, the more severe score for COVID-19 infection was noted ...

It can detect lesions in order to establish dissemination in time and space, which would aid in the diagnosis. Two-dimensional FLAIR is a standard sequence in MS routine imaging because it suppresses cerebrospinal fluid signal, increasing contrast between lesions and CSF and improving white matter lesion detection. Newer 3D FLAIR sequences are expected to offer even more benefits, such as improved MS lesions detection and higher resolution due to thinner slice thickness. We aimed to compare the role of 3D Cube FLAIR imaging (versus standard 2D FLAIR) in the assessment of white matter lesions in MS patients, as well as to test the convenience of using maximum intensity projection (MIP) on 3D FLAIR images for faster and easier evaluation. Results This study included 160 MS patients. A 1.5 T routine brain MRI scan was performed, which included a 2D FLAIR sequence, followed by ...
