    Abstract The management of any injury in elite athletes poses unique challenges distinct from the general population because the goal is rapid recovery and return to play (RTP) while simultaneously managing residual symptoms and minimizing risk of reinjury. The time required for treatment, recovery, and return to peak performance can have consequences for both the athlete and his or her team: financial implications, psychological stressors, team dynamics, and future performance. RTP after an injury in the professional athlete requires a complex decision-making process with many stakeholders. Several factors influence this decision, not the least of which is the type and mechanism of injury. This article provides an overview of the RTP process including nonmedical factors that may influence this decision, common injuries seen in professional athletes, injury patterns particular to certain popular sports, and imaging guidelines for such injuries.

    Abstract Fibrotic lung changes are well-known complications of SARS, MERS, and ARDS from other causes and are anticipated in recovered COVID patients. However, there is limited data so far showing a temporal relationship between lung changes on imaging in the acute phase and follow-up imaging after recovery from the infection. We present 12 patients who demonstrate the development of interstitial lung changes and pulmonary fibrosis in the same distribution and pattern as the acute phase findings, up to 6 months after the acute infection, demonstrating a direct relationship between these changes and COVID-19 pneumonia.

    Abstract Since the mid-twentieth century, the radionuclide thyroid scan has been utilized in the management of benign thyroid disorders. In current medical practice, patients with hyperthyroidism are referred for thyroid scintigraphy, while patients with goiters and thyroid nodules are most often evaluated by ultrasound or computed tomography. Since thyroid scintigraphy reflects the functional state of the gland, it provides information that anatomical imaging lacks. Therefore, radionuclide imaging of the thyroid is the imaging modality of choice in the evaluation of the hyperthyroid patient. In addition, patients with so-called subclinical hyperthyroidism often present a diagnostic dilemma to the clinician since the causative factor must be determined for proper patient management. The aim of this manuscript is to illustrate the imaging characteristics of thyroid disorders commonly seen in clinical practice resulting in thyrotoxicosis or pending thyrotoxicosis, so that correlation with clinical presentation and pertinent laboratory data will lead to the correct diagnosis.

    Abstract Mitral annular disjunction (MAD) refers to atrial displacement of the hinge point of the mitral valve annulus from the ventricular myocardium. MAD leads to paradoxical expansion of the annulus in systole and may often be associated with mitral valve prolapse (MVP), leaflet degeneration, myocardial and papillary muscle fibrosis, and, potentially, malignant cardiac arrhythmias. Patients with MAD and MVP may present similarly, and MAD is potentially the missing link in explaining why some patients with MVP experience adverse outcomes. Patients with a 5 mm or longer MAD distance have an elevated risk of malignant cardiac arrhythmia compared with those with a shorter MAD distance. Evaluation for MAD is an important component of cardiac imaging, especially in patients with MVP and unexplained cardiac arrhythmias. Cardiac MRI is an important diagnostic tool that aids in recognizing and quantifying MAD, MVP, and fibrosis in the papillary muscle and myocardium, which may predict and help improve outcomes following electrophysiology procedures and mitral valve surgery. This article reviews the history, pathophysiology, controversy, prevalence, clinical implications, and imaging considerations of MAD, focusing on cardiac MRI.

    Abstract Objective: Transient osteoporosis of the hip (TOH) is an uncommon, typically self-limited diagnosis of uncertain etiology. We hypothesize that TOH represents an underlying subchondral fracture, and a discrete fracture line can often be detected on high-resolution MRI.
    Materials and methods: A retrospective PACS query identified patients meeting imaging criteria for TOH with intense bone marrow edema (BME) in the femoral head on MRI. Those with poor quality studies, other underlying pathologies, or antecedent trauma were excluded. Three musculoskeletal radiologists independently reviewed each case for presence of a definite subchondral fracture line on small field of view (FOV) MR images of the affected hip. Extent of BME, reciprocal acetabular BME, and joint effusion size were also recorded. Binomial logistic regression was performed to determine statistically significant predictors of subchondral fracture.
    Results: Fifty patients met inclusion criteria (29 females, 0 pregnant). Mean age was 62±12 years (range 35-84). Average duration of symptoms before MRI was 102±135 days. Ten patients had bone densitometry within 2 years of MRI, six demonstrating osteopenia or osteoporosis. Subchondral fractures were unanimously identified in 44/50 (88%). Interclass correlation coefficient with absolute agreement was 0.73, 95% CI (0.57-0.84), indicating near-excellent agreement. Most cases demonstrated a large joint effusion (23/50, 46%) and acetabular BME (31/50, 62%). Increasing size of joint effusion was a statistically significant predictor of subchondral fracture (p=0.05), with 6.9 higher odds. There was a strong correlation with osteopenia/osteoporosis and fracture (p<0.001).
    Conclusion: Discrete subchondral fractures were identified unanimously on small FOV imaging in the majority of TOH cases.

    Abstract Pleural fistula is an abnormal communication between the pleural cavity and an adjacent structure. The interplay of anatomic and physiologic factors including proximity to various intrathoracic structures, deep pleural recesses, and negative pleural pressures makes the pleura an easy victim of fistulization. Iatrogenic creation followed by necrotizing infections and malignancies are the most common causes. While the overall incidence and size of postsurgical pleural fistulas are decreasing with increased adoption of vascularized flaps for high-risk resections, the smaller fistulas that develop in the setting of post-radiation therapy changes, with necrotizing infections in immunosuppressed patients, and with use of newer antiangiogenic chemotherapies can be challenging to visualize directly. Imaging signs in clinical practice are often subtle and indirect. Multimodality imaging and biochemical pleural fluid analysis can offer important adjunctive information when a diagnosis is only suggested with the first imaging study. Certain pleural fistulas are inconsequential, some spontaneously close with or without diversion of flow or use of positive-pressure ventilation, while others carry a higher risk of complications or recurrence. Estimated fistula size, factors that impair healing, and the possibility of diversion are important considerations when deciding between endoscopic or surgical closure. The authors have tailored this article for a general imager or clinical practitioner and review 10 types of pleural fistulas, ranging from routine to rare, with regard to their etiology, pathophysiology, clinical cues, imaging features, nuances of pleural fluid analysis, and management options available today.
