BackgroundUltrasonography is an emerging non-invasive bedside tool for muscle quantity/quality assessment; Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) is an alternative non-invasive bedside measure of body composition, recommended for evaluation of sarcopenia in clinical practice. We set out to assess impact of position and exercise upon measures toward...

To date, the majority of chest imaging studies in COVID-19 pneumonia have focused on CT. Evidence for the utility of chest radiographs (CXRs) in this population is less robust. Our objectives were to develop a systematic approach for reporting likelihood of COVID-19 pneumonia on CXRs, to measure the interobserver variability of this approach and to...

With the development of an artificial environment to support the extremely premature infant, advanced imaging techniques tested in this extrauterine system might be beneficial to evaluate the fetal brain. We evaluated the feasibility of (a) performing contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and (b) quantifying normal and decreased brain perfusion in fe...

BackgroundIntegration of imaging and clinical parameters could improve the stratification of COVID-19 patients on emergency department (ED) admission. We aimed to assess the extent of COVID-19 pulmonary abnormalities on chest x-ray (CXR) using a semiquantitative severity score, correlating it with clinical data and testing its interobserver agreeme...

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, outpatient diagnostic imaging (DI) facilities experienced decreased operations and even unprecedented closures. The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of COVID-19 on the practices of DI clinics, and investigate the reasons for the change in their operations during the initial period of the pandemic...

The aim of this study was to assess near-infrared transillumination with high dynamic range imaging (NIRT-HDRI) for occlusal caries detection in vitro and to compare it with visual inspection using the International Caries Detection and Assessment System II (ICDAS) and digital bitewing radiography (BWR). Sixty-one extracted permanent molars with so...

Odontogenic myxomas often have a distinctive radiographic presentation described as a "soap bubble", "tennis racket", or "honeycomb" pattern. Less frequently, examples of odontogenic myxomas with a "sunray" or "sunburst" pattern have been reported. Because malignant entities such as osteosarcomas more classically present with a sunray/sunburst appe...
