摘要:

SUMMARYComputed Cranial Tomography (CT) was performed in 17 patients with 18 acoustic neurilemmomas. Fourteen of 15 (93%) tumours with diameters above 1.5 cm were detected. Smaller lesions are below the threshold of detection by this method with current technology. Intravenous contrast enhancement and meticulous technique are essential for diagnosis.An indirect sign of large cerebellopontine angle masses, distortion of the quadrigeminal plate‐ambient cistern junction is described. The place of CT in the sequential pre‐operative evaluation and post‐operative management of patients with suspected cerebellopontine angle lesions is consi

摘要:

SUMMARYA patient with unexplained haemoptysis for one year was eventually shown to have a hilar bronchial carcinoma. The radioisotope scan showed a marked loss of regional perfusion in the affected lung when the radiograph was still almost normal. The value of the scan in the early diagnosis of bronchial hilar neoplasia is discussed.

摘要:

SUMMARYThe angiographic findings are presented in four patients with ruptured diaphragms. With rupture of the left hemidiaphragm the findings vary with the structures herniating. Gastric, mesenteric or splenic artery branches extending into the lower chest indicate herniation of the stomach, bowel or spleen. A herniating spleen is frequently ruptured. On the right, the liver is generally the only organ to herniate. An indentation in the lateral liver margin in the venous phase, if present, indicates the level of the diaphragm.
