    Abstract Purpose: In this study, the effect of the most superior point of patella-entrance of femoral trochlea distance ratio (SP-ET index) on chondromalacia patella (CP) was investigated with 2 reviewers.
    Material and methods: A total of 348 knees of 308 patients were analysed retrospectively with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Patients with or without CP constituted the study and the control groups in this cross-sectional investigation. Two reviewers interpreted the dataset regarding the SP-ET index. This ratio was calculated as the distance between the most superior point of patella and the entrance of femoral trochlea (β) divided by the patellar articular surface length (α). The relationship between the SP-ET index and CP was presented using independent samples T-tests, and the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was calculated to reveal the interobserver differences.
    Results: There was excellent agreement between the reviewers regarding α, β, and SP-ET values (ICC was 0.971, 0.964, and 0.943, respectively). Higher SP-ET values were obtained for patients with CP, in comparison with patients without any chondral lesion (
    Conclusions: SP-ET index showed high interobserver agreement and indicated a significant difference between patients with and without CP. Both reviewers' results indicated positive and significant correlation between the measured SP-ET values and different grades of CP for females, males, and the total study population.

    Abstract Purpose: Awareness of normative values of extra orbital structures would provide useful information to interpret the radiological images better and use them for diagnostic purposes. This study aimed to reveal the average values of major extraocular structures measured on magnetic resonance images.
    Methods: In this retrospective cross-sectional study, magnetic resonance (MR) images of 256 orbits of 128 patients were re-interpreted regarding the measurements of major orbital structures. Extraocular muscles, superior ophthalmic vein, and optic nerve-sheath complex were measured on orbital MR images of these patients. The data distributions were presented by box-plot analyses for each parameter, and the measurement results were analyzed regarding gender and age groups.
    Results: Lateral rectus muscle thickness (LR), inferior rectus muscle thickness (IR), globe position (GP), and interzygomatic line (IZL) values were higher in the male group than in the female group (p values were < 0.001, 0.003, 0.020, and < 0.001 respectively). LR, the thickness of the superior group muscles (SUP GR), IR, superior oblique muscle thickness (SOBL), and the thickness of optic nerve-sheath complex (ON) values indicated a significant relationship between age groups. There was a significant, positive, and low-level correlation between age and LR, SUP GR, and IR values (p values were < 0.001, 0.001, and < 0.001, respectively).
    Conclusion: This study provides quantitative data on normative values of orbital structures with gender and age group comparisons. Clinicians or surgeons can easily use the measured values to gather diagnostic information from the orbital region.

    Abstract Background: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the cervical spine is one of the routine MRI scans of the cervical region in investigating spinal disc pathologies, spinal stenosis, and the detection of spinal lesions, which are the major parameters to be evaluated in this examination.
    Purpose: The authors of this study are focused on a different aspect of cervical MRI, revealing the incidences and reporting rates of extraspinal incidental findings.
    Methods: A total of 1000 patients (324 males, 676 females, mean age 47 ± 14) who had undergone an MRI of the cervical spine were enrolled in this study. The magnetic resonance (MR) images of these patients were re-interpreted with respect to the incidental extraspinal imaging findings. The incidence and reporting rate of each incidental finding encountered during the evaluation were presented in percentages.
    Results: 726 patients in this study had at least one incidental lesion. The results of this study revealed that the most common incidental lesions encountered during the reinterpretation of cervical MRI were nasopharyngeal mucosal thickening (
    Conclusion: There are many data to be reported and evaluated by MR imaging of the cervical spine, not only the main parameters of MRI scanning in the routine daily practice of radiologists. All our colleagues should be aware and careful of these incidental findings, which may be the initial medical data of the patients' diagnoses, or to avoid undesirable medicolegal problems.

    Abstract The temporopolar artery (TPA) originates directly from the sphenoidal segment of the middle cerebral artery (MCA). Its originating from the M1 segment of the MCA as a branch of the anterior temporal artery is not uncommon. However, internal carotid artery origination is a very rare variation of the TPA. Here, we report a very rare case of the variant origin of the TPA and the presence of saccular aneurysm at this origin.

    Abstract Background: This article examines primary hepatic angiosarcoma (PHA) and fat-poor angiomyolipoma (AML), two uncommon vascular cancers. Clinical decisions in these situations are frequently aided by pathology reports and imaging techniques. Uncommon malignant tumors of the vascular endothelium include PHA. Another diagnosis that should not be overlooked when employing contrast-enhanced MR and contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) imaging techniques is fat-poor AML, one of the uncommon vascular tumors of the liver. In both conditions, biopsy is the primary means of diagnosis.
    Case summary: In our article, besides the diagnosis of PHA, fat-poor AML, one of the other rare vascular tumors of the liver, is mentioned. In the case, a 50-year-old female patient with VHL Syndrome was admitted to our hospital with nonspecific lesions such as right upper quadrant pain, weight loss, and nausea. Abdominal ultrasonography (US) revealed a hypoechoic heterogeneous lesion with occasional faint contours. In computed tomography, it was observed as a hyperdense nodular lesion in segment 4. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed that the lesion did not contain fat. In connection with the known history of VHL Syndrome, we first evaluated the possibility of AML. Thereupon, a histopathological sample was taken and the diagnosis was made as fat-poor AML with 5% fat content.
    Conclusion: In conclusion, PHA in our case report and fat-poor AML in our clinic are two uncommon liver vascular malignancies with comparable incidences. Important imaging techniques like contrast-enhanced US (CEUS), CECT, and CEMRI give us substantial advantages in both cases. However, a biopsy is used to provide the final diagnosis.

    Abstract Idiopathic granulomatous mastitis (IGM) is a chronic inflammatory breast disease treated with local and systemic corticosteroids. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of reducing corticosteroids doses in IGM cases based on shear wave elastography (SWE) tissue stiffness measurements. This prospective study included IGM patients who received systemic or local corticosteroids between January 2020 and September 2022. A 20% or more reduction in tissue elasticity values (kPa) was considered a positive response to treatment in the study group, and the corticosteroids dose was reduced. The control group was dosed routinely. All patients were followed for 2 years to compare treatment efficacy, duration, total corticosteroids dose, recurrence, and side effects. There were 12 patients (9 local/3 systemic corticosteroids) in the study group and 24 patients (17 local/7 systemic corticosteroids) in the control group. Ten (83.4%) out of 12 patients in the study group were successfully treated by reducing corticosteroid doses with follow-up, and 2 (16.6%) out of 12 patients were reverted to the initial treatment protocol due to an increase in elasticity values during the follow-up. Nevertheless, successful treatment results were obtained in these two patients without reducing the corticosteroid dose. When compared to the control group, the median corticosteroid dose in the study group was significantly lower in patients using both local (

    Abstract Earthquakes are among the most destructive and unpredictable natural disasters. Various diseases and ailments, such as bone fractures, organ and soft-tissue injuries, cardiovascular diseases, lung diseases, and infectious diseases, can develop in the aftermath of severe earthquakes. Digital radiography, ultrasound, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging are significant imaging modalities utilized for the quick and reliable assessment of earthquake-related ailments to facilitate the planning of suitable therapy. This article examines the usual radiological imaging characteristics observed in individuals from quake-damaged regions and summarizes the strengths and functionality of imaging modalities. In such circumstances, where quick decision-making processes are life-saving and essential, we hope this review will be a practical reference for readers.
