MRI sign of venous varicosity aids in diagnosis of quadrilateral space syndrome: A comparative study
The diagnosis of quadrilateral space syndrome (QSS) is difficult due to its vague symptoms and lacking of simple imaging signs. This study aimed to assess the diagnostic value of venous varicosity as an indirect MRI marker for QSS.

Computed tomography description of abdominal complications due to fishbone ingestion
Purpose: Inadvertent ingestion of fishbone can lead to bowel perforation. Numerous cases reports have been published; therefore, we aimed to describe the localization and type of complication in a dedicated cohort.Material and Methods: From 2009 to 2023, we queried our local informatic department (Cayenne Hospital, French Guiana) to search electronic patient records (ICD-10 code T18: Foreign body in alimentary tract) and we reviewed each case to identify abdominal complication caused by fishbone…

Digital mammography -guided versus digital breast Tomosynthesis- guided biopsy: A comparative study of sampling suspicious breast calcifications
Microcalcifications, which are deposits of calcium in breast tissue, are found in approximately one-third of all malignant breast lesions detected during screening mammography [1]. They are commonly associated with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and invasive carcinomas, with 90% of non-palpable DCIS cases and 20% of minimal infiltrating carcinomas diagnosed based solely on calcifications [2]. Beyond early detection, the presence of calcifications is more often associated with poorer prognostic …

Spectral CT-derived extracellular volume fraction for pathological characterization and noninvasive T staging in colon cancer
To investigate the association between the extracellular volume fraction (ECV) quantified by spectral CT and multiparameter pathological features (Ki-67, mismatch repair status, WHO Grade, Perineural/Lymphovascular Invasion, pT/pN Stage) in colon cancer, and to develop a noninvasive preoperative prediction model for any indicator showing a significant association.
