An Australian first, this study examined normal reference ranges for 99mTc‐pertechnetate thyroid uptake. Through a retrospective and prospective analysis, this study found a new reference range of 0.4%–2.4%. The findings suggest that locally derived reference values may differ from historical data and highlight the importance of region‐specific ...

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

Optimized Coherence Masking Improves Ultrasound Imaging of Kidney Cysts
Objectives Renal cystic lesions are exceedingly common and typically benign, though accurate diagnostic techniques are required to recognize the subset of malignant lesions that require timely intervention. Ultrasound (US) is the preferred first line test for renal cyst evaluation because it is safe, widely accessible, and low cost. US imaging, however,

Nail Disorders in Systemic Conditions
ABSTRACT Nail findings in children can be indicative of an underlying systemic disease. Many of these findings are seen in multiple entities and are not specific to one disease. The importance of specifically examining for these nail changes cannot be overstated.

Angiosarcoma of the Scalp Presenting With Eyelid Edema: A Diagnostic Pitfall of Eyelid Biopsy
ABSTRACT Angiosarcoma of the scalp is a rare but aggressive vascular malignancy that may present with nonspecific clinical findings, potentially leading to delayed diagnosis. Eyelid edema is an uncommon initial manifestation and has been suggested to result from direct tumor infiltration or lymphatic obstruction.

Thyroid nodules are common in pregnant women. Most of them are benign. Toxic autonomous nodules may be seen infrequently, and the diagnosis is supported by elevated free thyroid hormone levels and undetectable levels of TSH. The most common and most important problem is the diagnosis of thyroid cancer. FNB is the most reliable diagnostic tool.
