Abstract

Radiographic examination of the knee joint in Osteoarthritis (OA) cases was generally performed using anteroposterior (AP), lateral and oblique projections. However, at the Regional General Hospital (RSUD) of Ajibarang, in the case of OA the knee joint only used AP and lateral projections. The purpose of this study was to determine the radiographic examination procedure and ensure the criteria for the image generated from the AP projection and lateral examination of the knee joint in OA cases. This research was a qualitative descriptive with a case study approach. Collecting data on 1 knee joint patient with OA in Ajibarang Hospital using observation, documentation and interviews with radiographers and radiologist. Data analysis used open coding in the form of quotations. The results showed that the AP and lateral projections were performed with the central ray perpendicular to the cassette and showed the distal femur, tibia, proximal fibula and patella, the femoropatellar joint and the knee joint were exposed and the true lateral was shown by superposition of the femoral condyles. Finally, examination of the knee joint of OA cases at Ajibarang Hospital with AP and lateral projections can still display the anatomy of interest and determine the diagnosis of OA cases.

Abstract

Background: Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI) is a technique that visualizes the movement of water molecules from areas of higher to lower concentration. In DWI sequences, the b-value parameter affects the signal intensity in the images. The objective of this study is to describe the differences in anatomical image information between b-value variations of 1500s/mm2, 2000s/mm2, and 2500s/mm2 in MRI prostate case cancer and to determine the most optimal b-value. Method: This study used a pre-exeachimental approach with a 1.5T Philips MRI machine at a private hospital in South Jakarta from March to April 2023. The sample consisted of 12 Prostate MRI images with DWI sequences and different b-values. Visual grading assessment was eachformed by three radiology specialists, and the data were analyzed using the Friedman test in SPSS. Results: The results showed a significant difference in anatomical image information based on the b-value variations used, with a p-value of 0.05 (0.02). The highest mean rank was obtained from the Friedman test for the b-value of 2000s/mm2. Conclusion: The significant difference in anatomical image information occurred due to differences in signal intensity and noise levels. Prostate cancer tissues appeared more hyperintense with lower noise in images with higher b-values, and vice versa. Additionally, the b-value of 2000s/mm2 resulted in the most optimal signal intensity and noise level. In conclusion, the use of b-value variations in axial DWI images of prostate cancer Prostate MRI to differences in anatomical image information, with the most optimal image information observed at a b-value of 2000s/mm2.

Abstract

Background: Diffusion Weighted Image (DWI) sequence that utilizes the movement of molecules due to random thermal motion. The aim of this research is to determine the difference in image information between DWI sequence and DWI BLADE on axial brain MRI images for optimization and to find the most optimal sequence between DWI and DWI BLADE on axial brain MRI images. Method: This study used a quantitative experimental research that aims to determine image information and optimize brain MRI examinations between DWI sequence and DWI BLADE using the MRI Siemens Magnetom Amira 1.5 T at Dr. Oen Kandang Sapi Hospital Solo in May-June 2023. The sample consisted of 11 MRI assessments through visual grading analysis to provide interpretations related to image clarity information, thus obtaining the optimal use of DWI and DWI Blade sequences. Results: Based on the research and discussion results, it can be concluded that there is a difference in anatomical image information between DWI sequence with BLADE and without BLADE on axial brain MRI examinations, with a significance value of 0.00 (p<0.05), indicating a difference in anatomical image information in the cortex cerebri, thalamus, cerebellum, basal ganglia, and a significance value of 1.000 (p<0.05) for artifact information, indicating no difference in artifact image information between DWI sequences with BLADE and without BLADE. Conclusion: DWI BLADE sequence provides better anatomical image information compared to DWI sequence without BLADE in axial brain MRI examinations.
