Introduction The genicular nerves are key sensory nerves that innervate the knee joint. Chronic knee pain caused by osteoarthritis (OA) originates from the transmission of pain signals through them. OA is a chronic and progressive condition,
Reposted Article Originally Published by Canon Medical USA. Clinical Case Study Ultrasound was performed to investigate a palpable lump in the proximal thigh/groin crease with associated “shooting” anterior thigh pain. High resolution ultrasound was performed on a Canon Medical Aplio i700 Prism Edition with an i18LX5 matrix transducer. iBeam+ technology provides excellent resolution with extraordinarily
ENHANCED DETECTION OF MICROTRABECULAR FRACTURES USING 3T MRI WITH DEEP RESOLVE IMAGE ENHANCEMENT : OUR EXPERIENCE. 3T MRI has a high degree of accuracy for detecting soft tissue tendoligamentous and muscular injuries. However our preliminary experience at Panorama Radiology Specialists with Siemens Lumina 3T MRI augmented with Deep Resolve image enhancement – a breakthrough technology
‘CTCA has become a primary method for the diagnosis of Coronary Artery disease.’ (Journal of the American College of Cardiology, Aug. 2021) Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death worldwide. Early detection of significant Coronary Artery disease can enable early implementation of preventive or therapeutic measures. One of the primary methods for diagnosing Coronary
Fatty liver disease, also known as nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), affects over one billion individuals worldwide, with a prevalence of up to 30% in the general population and even higher in people with type 2 diabetes. It is the third most common cause of hepatocellular carcinoma in the United States. Assessing liver fat content
Lateral ankle injuries are extremely common, especially in high-torsion sports such as netball, basketball, rugby, AFL and soccer. Peroneal tendon pathologies are a common cause of lateralising ankle pain, but are also frequently missed or underdiagnosed on medical imaging studies. Peroneal tendon injuries are experienced by around 20% of the population during their lifetime, and
Osteoarthritis affects around 15% of the Australian population, and is a leading cause of debilitating pain in the ageing population. (MJA) Approximately 65,000 total knee replacement operations are performed in Australia each year (AOANJRR 2019), putting it amongst the most commonly performed elective surgeries. There are a variety of non surgical treatment options for knee
MRI Discography, also known as MRI Disc Spectroscopy, is an emerging non-invasive MRI technique which allows spectroscopic analysis of the biochemical composition of intervertebral discs using advanced MRI techniques and specialised software. Studies have demonstrated a high correlation between non invasive MRI Disc Spectroscopy and conventional Invasive Provocative Discography. MRI Disc Spectroscopy allows spectral analysis
EOS IN TOTAL HIP AND KNEE REPLACEMENT EOS scanning is a sophisticated low dose imaging technology that uses dual X-Ray tubes to scan the spine, lower limbs or the full body in a natural upright resting position to create detailed, high resolution 2D and 3D images that allow accurate measurement of a wide range of
Lower back pain is one of the most common clinical presentations in general practice and emergency departments around the world, and around 80% of us will experience issues with back pain requiring management in our lifetimes. Degenerative disc disease is so common with advancing age that from a radiological perspective it can almost be viewed
Shoulder pain requiring some form of management affects around a quarter of Australians in their lifetime, making it one of the most common and debilitating musculoskeletal complaints. The range of underlying pathology is vast, but from a primary care perspective, identifying or excluding some key treatable acute pathologies is an important first step in diagnosis
Over almost two decades working in private clinical radiology with a focus on musculoskeletal imaging, I’ve seen an astounding progressive evolution in imaging technology. Until recently, advances in image quality have largely been a reflection of the steady evolution of engineering technology such as the emergence of high magnetic field strength MRI and its widespread
