Musculoskeletal ultrasound imaging standards in the UK: British Society of Skeletal Radiologists (BSSR) position statement
(British Institute of Radiology, 2021-05-01)There has been some concern expressed by UK regulator, the Professional Standards Authority regarding the risks arising from Independent sonographer practices. The Professional Standards Authority presented evidence ... -
MRI versus CT: a retrospective investigation of the feasibility and agreeability in post-operative evaluation of screw position after posterior lumbar interbody fusion.
(Springer, 2021-01-01)PURPOSE: Many patients receive magnetic resonance (MR) and computed tomography (CT) scans post-operatively to review screw placement. Traditionally, CT is diagnostic but as metal artefact reduction sequences are advancing ... -
New concept: "TARN friendly trauma reporting" (what radiologists say really does matter).
(Elsevier, 2021-06-03)AIM: To establish if detailed review of trauma reports with reference to coding manual improved accuracy of ISS and to establish if demonstrated changes in coding affected performance and tariff payment. MATERIALS AND ... -
Tiger woman sign' hypercalcaemia: a diagnostic challenge.
(Royal College of Physicians, 2021-01-01)Hypercalcaemia is a common electrolyte abnormality with 90% of cases due to either primary hyperparathyroidism or malignancy. Other causes of hypercalcaemia often require careful consideration. We describe an approach to ... -
Geometric semi-automatic analysis of radiographs of Colles' fractures
(Public Library of Science, 2020-09-14)Fractures of the wrist are common in Emergency Departments, where some patients are treated with a procedure called Manipulation under Anaesthesia. In some cases, this procedure is unsuccessful and patients need to revisit ... -
Massive pulmonary embolism in patients with extreme bleeding risk: a case series on the successful use of ultrasound-assisted, catheter directed thrombolysis in a district general hospital
(Springer, 2020-09-04)Massive pulmonary embolism (PE), characterised by profound arterial hypotension, is a life-threatening emergency with a 90-day mortality of over 50%. Systemic thrombolysis can significantly reduce the risk of death or ... -
Clinical features and genetic risk of demyelination following anti-TNF treatment
(Silverchair Information Systems, 2020-06-04)Background: Anti-TNF exposure has been linked to demyelination events. We sought to describe the clinical features of demyelination events following anti-TNF treatment and test whether affected patients were genetically ... -
Percutaneous consolidation of bone metastases: strategies and techniques
(Springer, 2019-02-06)Patients with cancer can present with bone metastases (BM), which are frequently complicated by different types of fractures necessitating prompt management to avoid serious impairment in terms of quality of life and ... -
Artificial intelligence in the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease from ioflupane-123 single-photon emission computed tomography dopamine transporter scans using transfer learning.
(Wolters Kluwer, 2018-10)The objective of this study was to identify the extent to which artificial intelligence could be used in the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease from ioflupane-123 (¹²³I) single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) ... -

Current role of interventional radiology in the management of visceral and bone metastases from thyroid cancer.
(AME Publishing Company, 2018-04)The metastatic disease from thyroid cancer represents a complex clinical scenario, which mandates a case-based multi-disciplinary approach in tertiary referral centers. Direct localised treatments such as minimally invasive ... -
Bilateral testicular torsion in a 36-week neonate.
(BMJ, 2018-02-07)A male neonate born after uncomplicated vaginal delivery at 36 weeks' gestation was noted to have large and firm testicles bilaterally on routine examination. A testicular ultrasound scan was subsequently organised that ... -
How to Perform a Routine Cryoablation Under MRI Guidance.
(Wolters Kluwer, 2018-02)In the last decade, the spectrum of interventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided procedures, including percutaneous ablation, has substantially grown, and among the available MRI-compatible ablative techniques, ... -
Artificial intelligence in fracture detection: transfer learning from deep convolutional neural networks.
(Elsevier, 2017-12-18)To identify the extent to which transfer learning from deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs), pre-trained on non-medical images, can be used for automated fracture detection on plain radiographs. -
