    Abstract Introduction: The patellofemoral joint is a complex joint that plays a crucial role in knee joint function and stability. This study aims to describe the MRI characteristics of the patellofemoral joint in Vietnamese adults.
    Subjects and methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 280 patients at Hue UMP Hospital from May 2020 to May 2021. All patients underwent knee MRI using Siemens Magnetom Amira 1.5 Tesla. The evaluation parameters included the morphology of the patella and the femoral trochlea.
    Results: The study found that the morphological parameters of the patellar joint varied significantly between genders and age groups. The mean largest patellar transverse diameter was 4.26 ± 0.37 cm, the average length of the lateral joint facet was 2.5 ± 0.26 cm, and the medial joint facet was 2.0 ± 0.25 cm. The patellar height was 4.07 ± 0.35 cm. The indexes of patellar morphology were higher in men than in women, except for the lateral-medial facet ratio. The most common Wiberg classification was type B (63.9%), followed by type C (25.4%), and type A was the least common (10.7%). There was a statistically significant difference in the patellar measurements between different age groups. There was a weak negative linear correlation between the dimensions of the largest transverse diameter, the length of the articular surface, the patellar articular angle, and the age of the patient. Additionally, there was a moderate inverse linear relationship between patellar height and patient age.
    Conclusion: This study highlights the significant variations in patellar morphology based on gender and age. The findings emphasize the importance of careful assessment and consideration of these variations in the imaging evaluation of the patellofemoral joint.

    Abstract Purpose: The main objective of this study was to provide a description and classification of lumbosacral spine injuries based on the new AOSpine classification system.
    Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 75 patients with lumbosacral spine trauma who were admitted to Hue University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital in Hue, Vietnam, between April 2021 and July 2022. All patients underwent lumbosacral computed tomography, and each injured vertebra was classified according to the AOSpine classification system. The frequency and percentage of subtypes of lumbosacral spine trauma were determined.
    Results: The mean age of the patients was 50.6 ± 16.1 years, and the male-to-female ratio was 1.5:1. Falls and traffic accidents were found to be the main causes of injuries. Among the patients, 78.7% did not exhibit any neurological symptoms, while 1.3% experienced complete hemiplegia and 20% had incomplete hemiplegia. The most common fracture subtype was A3, accounting for 34.6% of cases.
    Conclusion: This study provides valuable insights into the demographics, associated injuries, and classification of traumatic lumbosacral spine injuries based on the new AOSpine classification system. The study found that falls and motor vehicle accidents were the main causes of these injuries, with a higher proportion of male patients. The majority of injuries were classified as type A fractures, while type C fractures were the least common. Sacral fractures were relatively infrequent and often associated with pelvic ring fractures. These findings contribute to our understanding of lumbosacral spine trauma and can aid in the development of more effective treatment protocols.

    Abstract Objective: To evaluate students' satisfaction and efficacy of online clinical briefing for radiologic technology students. The study aimed to evaluate the efficiency, the possibility of application, and students' feedback with the new form of clinical briefing during the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak.
    Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted on 120 full-time radiologic technology students after participating in online clinical briefing sessions at the Department of Radiology, Hue University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital. This training approach was implemented for students from April to July 2021. During the briefing, participants were asked to discuss on cases that were prepared by the previous on-duty nightshift students with the consultant of the senior staff. The discussion focused on the technical aspects, challenges, and clinical implementation of each technique. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the responses of students using the Likert scale (1. Complete disagree, 2. Disagree, 3. Satisfy, 4. Partial agree, 5. Complete agree).
    Results: Our findings show that 76.5% of students were very satisfied and/or satisfied with the online clinical briefing. In particular, the mean score for satisfaction with teaching resources and platforms, and assessment tools were 4.21; less fear in giving feedback than on-site briefings were 3.57; satisfaction with faculty accessibility and availability in giving feedback as well as answering questions for students was 4.29; satisfaction with student's performance and final grade was 3.55. 94.2% of students were willing to continue studying online during the COVID-19 breakout or similar circumstances.
    Conclusion: Online clinical briefing is an appropriate teaching approach during a prolonged COVID-19 breakout. However, it cannot completely replace traditional teaching methods in providing essential clinical skills for radiologic technology students due to the unique characteristics of medicine and medical imaging teaching which require a substantial amount of clinical practice.

    Abstract Osteochondroma is the most common bone tumor representing 20%-50% of all benign bone tumors and 10%-15% of all bone tumors. Osteochondroma has similar radiological appearance in both solitary and multiple forms; the latter is an autosomal dominant disorder termed hereditary multiple exostoses. Associated complications of osteochondroma include deformity, fracture, neurovascular compromise, bursa formation, and malignant transformation. Measurement of the cartilage cap thickness is an important index suggesting secondary malignancy of osteochondroma. The upper limit of cap thickness after skeletal maturation is 1.5 cm which can be reliably measured on ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging. Hereditary multiple exostoses are linked to the mutations of different exostoses genes located on chromosome 8, 11, and 19. We reported cases of two siblings presented with multiple osteochondromas managed by surgical excision. We evaluated their clinical and radiological presentation, genetic correlations and compared with the literature.
