    Abstract The shift from film to PACS in reading rooms, coupled with escalating case volumes, exposes radiologists to the issues of the modern computer workstation including computer work posture and work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSD). Common WMSDs affecting the neck and upper extremities include cervical myofascial pain, shoulder tendonitis, lateral epicondylitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, and cubital tunnel syndrome. This review examines each pathology along with its pathogenesis, clinical features, physical exam findings, and potential risk factors. Furthermore, a comprehensive 11-part physical therapy regimen that is both prophylactic and therapeutic is illustrated and described in detail. One of the objectives of this review is to advocate for the inclusion of a physical therapy regimen in the working routine of diagnostic radiologists to prevent WMSDs. A brief daily commitment to this regimen can help radiologists remain healthy and productive in order to deliver optimal patient care throughout their careers.

    Abstract Purpose: To create an algorithm able to accurately detect IVC filters on radiographs without human assistance, capable of being used to screen radiographs to identify patients needing IVC filter retrieval.
    Methods: A primary dataset of 5225 images, 30% of which included IVC filters, was assembled and annotated. 85% of the data was used to train a Cascade R-CNN (Region Based Convolutional Neural Network) object detection network incorporating a pre-trained ResNet-50 backbone. The remaining 15% of the data, independently annotated by three radiologists, was used as a test set to assess performance. The algorithm was also assessed on an independently constructed 1424-image dataset, drawn from a different institution than the primary dataset.
    Results: On the primary test set, the algorithm achieved a sensitivity of 96.2% (95% CI 92.7-98.1%) and a specificity of 98.9% (95% CI 97.4-99.5%). Results were similar on the external test set: sensitivity 97.9% (95% CI 96.2-98.9%), specificity 99.6 (95% CI 98.9-99.9%).
    Conclusion: Fully automated detection of IVC filters on radiographs with high sensitivity and excellent specificity required for an automated screening system can be achieved using object detection neural networks. Further work will develop a system for identifying patients for IVC filter retrieval based on this algorithm.

    Abstract Background: Jejunal lymphatic malformations are congenital lesions that are seldom diagnosed in adults and rarely seen on imaging.
    Case presentation: A 61-year-old Caucasian woman was initially diagnosed and treated for mucinous ovarian carcinoma. After an exploratory laparotomy with left salpingo-oophorectomy, a computed tomography scan of the abdomen and pelvis demonstrated suspicious fluid-containing lesions involving a segment of jejunum and adjacent mesentery. Resection of the lesion during subsequent debulking surgery revealed that the lesion seen on imaging was a jejunal lymphatic malformation and not a cancerous implant.
    Conclusions: Abdominal lymphatic malformations are difficult to diagnose solely on imaging but should remain on the differential in adult cancer patients with persistent cystic abdominal lesions despite chemotherapy and must be differentiated from metastatic implants.

    Abstract Neuroglial choristomas are rare malformations of heterotopic neural tissue that have been previously reported predominantly in the head and neck. Competing theories of embryogenesis propose their origin as encephaloceles that have undergone resorption of their cranial connection or displaced neuroectodermal cells which have undergone ectopic proliferation. Most cases occur in midline or para-midline structures. There have been no prior published cases of a neuroglial choristoma in the extremities. We present a case of a 13-month-old otherwise healthy child who presented to our institution with a slowly growing foot mass who was found to have a neuroglial choristoma. This case suggests an early embryological migration defect as the etiology and offers a unique differential consideration for a benign extremity mass.

    Abstract Purpose: We sought to evaluate discrepancy rates between outside interpretations, radiology trainee preliminary reports, and subspecialist attending final interpretations for pediatric second opinion consultations on plain film and computed tomography imaging and to evaluate the impact of a process improvement for second opinion consultations.
    Methods: Of a total of 572 requests for second opinion consultations during 1-year preintervention period, we utilized RADPEER to score concurrence of 158 requests which occurred overnight and included outside radiologist interpretations and resident preliminary reports. In consultation with clinician committees, we developed new guidelines for requesting second opinion consultations. We evaluated the impact on the number of consultations for the 1-year period following implementation of this process improvement.
    Results: There was concurrence between the outside interpretation and pediatric subspecialist second opinion in 146 of 158 cases (92%). There was concurrence between the radiology resident and pediatric subspecialist second opinion in 145 of 158 cases (92%). During the 1-year period following our process improvement implementation, the total number of second opinion consultations decreased to 185 (from 572, a decrease of 68%) and the number of overnight requests for resident preliminary reports decreased to 11 (from 158, a decrease of 93%).
    Conclusions: There was a high degree of concurrence between interpretations provided by outside radiologists, overnight radiology residents, and attending pediatric radiologists at our institution. Analyzing institutional-specific discrepancy rates is a valuable first step in partnering with clinicians to develop appropriate guidelines for second opinion consultations.

    Abstract Hepatosplenomegaly is commonly diagnosed by radiologists based on single dimension measurements and heuristic cut-offs. Volumetric measurements may be more accurate for diagnosing organ enlargement. Artificial intelligence techniques may be able to automatically calculate liver and spleen volume and facilitate more accurate diagnosis. After IRB approval, 2 convolutional neural networks (CNN) were developed to automatically segment the liver and spleen on a training dataset comprised of 500 single-phase, contrast-enhanced CT abdomen and pelvis examinations. A separate dataset of ten thousand sequential examinations at a single institution was segmented with these CNNs. Performance was evaluated on a 1% subset and compared with manual segmentations using Sorensen-Dice coefficients and Pearson correlation coefficients. Radiologist reports were reviewed for diagnosis of hepatomegaly and splenomegaly and compared with calculated volumes. Abnormal enlargement was defined as greater than 2 standard deviations above the mean. Median Dice coefficients for liver and spleen segmentation were 0.988 and 0.981, respectively. Pearson correlation coefficients of CNN-derived estimates of organ volume against the gold-standard manual annotation were 0.999 for the liver and spleen (P < 0.001). Average liver volume was 1556.8 ± 498.7 cc and average spleen volume was 194.6 ± 123.0 cc. There were significant differences in average liver and spleen volumes between male and female patients. Thus, the volume thresholds for ground-truth determination of hepatomegaly and splenomegaly were determined separately for each sex. Radiologist classification of hepatomegaly was 65% sensitive, 91% specific, with a positive predictive value (PPV) of 23% and an negative predictive value (NPV) of 98%. Radiologist classification of splenomegaly was 68% sensitive, 97% specific, with a positive predictive value (PPV) of 50% and a negative predictive value (NPV) of 99%. Convolutional neural networks can accurately segment the liver and spleen and may be helpful to improve radiologist accuracy in the diagnosis of hepatomegaly and splenomegaly.
