The article cites a case of a 5-month-old girl who was diagnosed with subacute necrotizing encephalomyelopathy or Leigh disease. She was presented with failure to thrive, developmental regression, visual inattention, and nystagmus. The patient had transient episodes of stiffening of the arms and legs, and arching of the back. Magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance spectroscopy were performed.

The article presents a case study of a 63 year old woman in the U.S. who was taken to the emergency department because of acute-onset epigastrc pain. She was physically examined and it shows that she has unbeatable blood pressure, peritonitis and has increased serum lactate level. The article discusses internal hernia. It also states that transomental hernia is a rare case and that the presence of small-bowel loops associated with stretched vascular pedicle indicates a sign of internal hernia.

The article presents a medical case of a 63-year-old woman with acute-onset epigastric pain who was presented to the emergency department. It mentions that physical examinations show an unstable blood pressure and peritonitis. It is stated that the patient had no history of previous or chronic illness, but past surgical history was noted with a hysterectomy.

The article discusses the medical examination of an infant patient with failure to thrive, developmental regression, visual inattention, and nystagmus. According to the study, the infant had transient episodes of stiffening of her arms and legs and arching of her back, wherein none of these symptoms were noted until she was three months of age. It has showed that the infant had been born at term by spontaneous vaginal delivery following an uncomplicated pregnancy.

Discusses the case of a 15-year-old girl presented with Ortner's syndrome, a left recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy associated with cardiovascular disease. History of the patient's medical condition; Clinical investigations and diagnosis; Management of the patient's case.

Describes the case of a 15-year-old girl presented with idiopathic pulmonary hypertension. History of the patient's medical condition; Medical examinations undergone; Diagnosis and treatment options for the condition.

The use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) during pregnancy is associated with concerns among patients and health professionals with regards to fetal safety. In this work, the Canadian Association of Radiologists (CAR) Working Group on MRI in Pregnancy presents recommendations for the use of MRI in pregnancy, derived from literature review as well as expert panel opinions and discussions. The working group, which consists of academic subspecialty radiologists and obstetrician-gynaecologists, aimed to provide updated, evidence-based recommendations addressing safety domains related to energy deposition, acoustic noise, and gadolinium-based contrast agent use based on magnetic field strength (1.5T and 3T) and trimester scanned, in addition to the effects of sedative use and occupational exposure.

The article reports on research which was conducted to investigate whether diffraction enhanced X-ray imaging would be effective in imaging the distal radius and would be a useful approach for visualizing the architecture of the trabecular bone. Researchers imaged human bone and tissue specimens. They found that diffraction enhanced X-ray imaging was an effective approach which improved visualization of bone architecture.
