Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry: guidelines under revision

Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry: guidelines under revision

The main focus of this paper lies on the evaluation of the quality of the published guidelines on dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) for adults using the AGREE II tool. DXA is the most common technique to measure bone mineral density (BMD).

Clinical, pathological and radiological features of central airway pathology

Clinical, pathological and radiological features of central airway pathology

This review describes the main features of central airway pathology and compares the imaging findings, especially the ones of multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) and virtual bronchoscopy, with those in pathology and direct bronchoscopy, in order to propose a schematic and practical approach to establish diagnoses.

Left ventricular thickening and the role of MRI

Left ventricular thickening and the role of MRI

MRI is an essential part of the comprehensive evaluation of left ventricular (LV) thickening. This article reviews not only the aetiologies and pathophysiology of LV thickening, but also illustrates the importance of MRI in its evaluation.

Identifying non-malignant oesophageal diseases

Identifying non-malignant oesophageal diseases

It is important to recognise non-malignant oesophageal diseases; however, they can easily go unnoticed or be misdiagnosed radiologically. With this paper, the authors aim to cover the important clinical features and imaging findings of non-malignant pathology of the oesophagus.

Forget me not: the hippocampus

Forget me not: the hippocampus

This pictorial essay describes the anatomy and pathology of the hippocampus, which—although it is a small but complex structure in the brain—plays an important role in spatial and episodic memory. The article explains the best imaging strategy for the evaluation of the hippocampus and describes the imaging appearance of the most common anatomic variants and pathologic conditions that can affect the hippocampus.
