PPT-Chest imaging Lecture one

Dr Marwa Majid aladhab Mbchb fibms Case 45yearsold female presents with l eft scapular pain and cough As part of the GPs initial work up for the patient presentation a chest xray was obtained. Traditionally clinical imaging exploits the contrast due to differences in spin density spinlattice relaxation T and spinspin relaxation T between normal tissues and pathology However other contrast mechanisms such as susceptibility magnetization A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z 57513 2003 HighScope Educational Research Foundation 21 Language and Literacy Language and Literacy Language and Literacy Circle one Item Q R S T U V W X Circle one Level 12345 Date Observer Circ Basic to Intermediate Interpretation.

Adrenal lesions can either be primary, of adrenal origin, or secondary to other pathologies. Primary adrenal lesions can further be either of cortical or medullary origin. Functioning adrenal lesions can also give clues to the histologic diagnosis and direct workup. Over the years, various imaging techniques have been developed that have increased diagnostic accuracy and helped in better characterization of adrenal lesions non-invasively. In the first part of the two part series, we review adrenal imaging techniques and adrenal cortical tumors such as adenomas, adrenocortical tumors, adrenal hyperplasia and oncocytomas.
