Abstract

Objective: To evaluate cerebrovascular accidents using computed tomography. Materials and Methods: A descriptive study was carried out at the Department of Radio-diagnosis of Dr Vasantrao Pawar Medical College and research centre from August 2014 to November 2016, to evaluate cerebrovascular accidents using computed tomography. One hundred patients who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were thoroughly evaluated. Results: 64% patients had cerebral infarction while 24% patients had intracerebral haemorrhage. 6% patients had SAH while 2% patients each had CVT and tumour respectively. 2% patients showed normal findings. 24% patients had a history of Diabetes mellitus whereas 30% patients had history of pre-existing hypertension. 20% patients had heart disease. 26% patients had a history of smoking whereas 28% patients consumed alcohol regularly. Out of 100 cases of clinically suspected CVA subjected to CT study, 2 cases turned out to be normal accounting for 2% of the study group. These cases were taken as negative cases.

Abstract

Background: Pancreatic neoplasms have highly variable clinical presentation and severity. Computerized Tomography (CT) is the modality of choice for investigating pancreatic neoplasms. Objectives: The objective of our study was to study the CT findings of pancreatic neoplasms in a tertiary care centre. Materials and Methods: CT scan of 20 patients with pancreatic neoplasms were studied after scanning on Siemens Somatom Perspective (128 slice). Results: Majority of the patients i.e., 45% had imaging features of epithelial tumours (Adenocarcinoma). Cystic neoplasms and endocrine tumours were the next most common seen in 30% and 15% of patients respectively. Conclusion: From this study we can infer that pancreatic neoplasms show characteristic findings on CT study & it enables us to assess, grade and stage pancreatic neoplasms with a fair degree of reliability non-invasively. It also helps in designing a management plan for better patient care.

Abstract

Introduction: Laryngeal cancer is one of the most common head and neck malignancies, accounting for about 20% of all cases. The association of laryngeal cancer and tobacco smoking is well-established. Aims and Objectives: To study the findings of laryngeal cancer on computed tomography. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted on 35 patients who came for CT in the Department of Radio Diagnosis at a Tertiary Health Care Centre in a period of 2 years. Results and Conclusion: Carcinoma of larynx is less common below the age of 50 years. Maximum numbers of diagnosed patients are in the age group of 60-69 years. Carcinoma of larynx is more common in males. Tobacco smoking has significant risk. Smoking and alcohol act synergistically in predisposing to cancer of larynx. Hoarseness of voice is the most common presenting complaint. Glottic cancers are more common.

Abstract

Introduction: Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is a non-invasive and important imaging modality useful for study of pancreas and biliary system using advanced rapid imaging and invention of new sequences for pancreatic and biliary ductal system. Aims and Objectives: To study role of Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) finding in various pancreatico-biliary pathologies. Results: Total 60 cases were studied with various pancreatico-biliary conditions. Variety of study showed that 37(62%) out of 60 cases were encountered with biliary pathologies followed by pancreatic lesion in 17(29%) cases and pancreatic-biliary lesions were present in 6 (9%) cases. Among the lesions, most common cases were of obstructive etiology in 24(40%) followed by inflammatory condition in 21(36%), congenital lesions in 7(11%), neoplastic lesions seen in 6(10%) and strictures in the 2 (3%) cases. Conclusion: According to our study, MRCP is an advanced and noninvasive diagnostic imaging of choice for the pancreatico-biliary lesions.
