Left pulmonary artery agenesis

Journal of the Belgian Society of Radiology, 2010
Background: A 45-year-old woman without medical history presented to the first aid department with shortness of breath and some mild thoracic pain. At first the conventional radiography of the chest was interpreted as normal.

Mapping the Landscape of Over‐Scanning in CT Imaging: A Scoping Review

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Over‐scanning in CT is highly prevalent and contributes to unnecessary radiation exposure, with notable impact on radiosensitive organs. Standardised protocols and AI‐assisted planning show strong potential to optimise scan range and reduce excess dose.

Compliance With NICE Guidance for Cervical Spine Trauma Imaging: A Single Centre Retrospective Evaluation

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study found that only two‐thirds of patients were managed in accordance with national guidance for C‐spine trauma, with younger patients more likely to have X‐rays rather than CT. Inappropriate imaging carries radiation dose implications and delays in care with subsequent risks, particularly where immobilisation is utilised.

Diagnostic Accuracy of Chest x-Ray and Ultrasonography in Detection of Community Acquired Pneumonia; a Brief Report

Emergency, 2015
Introduction: Chest x-ray (CXR) is the simplest diagnostic tool of Community Acquired Pneumonia (CAP), but it has some limitation. Therefore, the aim of this study is comparing the diagnostic accuracy of CXR and chest ultrasonography (CUS) in detection ...

Patient Centring in CT: An International Survey of Clinical Practice and Future Directions

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
An international survey of 321 radiographers from 43 countries found vertical mis‐centring below the CT isocentre is the most frequent positioning error. Only 34% had access to automated centring systems and 17% used them consistently. Substantial knowledge gaps exist regarding radiation dose and CT number variability, highlighting the need for ...

Size‐specific dose estimates calculated using patient size measurements from scanned projection radiograph in high‐resolution chest computed tomography

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 85-92, March 2025.
This study established that patient's lateral width measurements made from scanned projection radiograph (SPR) is an overestimate compared to those measured from tomographic slices by about 10%. Size‐specific dose estimates (SSDE) calculated using lateral width measured from SPR correlates well with SSDE calculated using water equivalent diameter of ...

Imaging of thoracic hernias: types and complications

Insights into Imaging, 2018
Thoracic hernias are characterised by either protrusion of the thoracic contents outside their normal anatomical confines or extension of the abdominal contents within the thorax. Thoracic hernias can be either congenital or acquired in aetiology.
