CT-guided puncture for direct MR-arthrography of the shoulder: Description of possible techniques
Journal Title: Journal of Radiology and Imaging - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The following report describes the possible techniques of CT-guided puncture for direct magnetic resonance (MR) arthrography of the shoulder. CT-guided puncture can be regarded as an alternative technique to fluoroscopic- or ultrasound-guided puncture for MR-arthrography of the shoulder with high efficiency, low dose and extremely low complication rate.

Computed tomography of congenital heart disease in patients with heterotaxy syndrome
Background: Heterotaxy syndrome (HS) or situs ambiguous, is determined as a type of congenital disorders which is caused by failure to establish normal left–right (L–R) asymmetry during embryonic development. One of the...
MRI system scoring for differentiation of malignant versus benign stricture of the common bile duct
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the ability of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to differentiate between malignant and benign strictures of the common bile duct by using a scoring system. MRI scans of 34 patien...
