International Journal of Radiology and Imaging
Published by Universitas Brawijaya
Core Subject : Health, Science,
International Journal of Radiology and Imaging (IJRI) is the official journal of Radiology Department, Faculty of Medicine Universitas Brawijaya Malang, Indonesia. This journal is a six-monthly periodic journal (publishes two times per year in June and December), containing various articles or manuscripts in the forms of research, systematic reviews, case reports, and short communications. This journal is a peer reviewed publication and accepts article for publication from across the world. IJRI accepts and publishes articles in the English language only. The primary goal of this journal is to publish clinical and basic research relevant to radiology science. IJRI covers the following topics are diagnostic radiology, radiation oncology, nuclear medicine, molecular radiology, radiation physics and radiation biology, cardiopulmonary imaging, gastrointestinal imaging, genitourinary imaging, musculoskeletal imaging, neuroradiology/head and neck imaging, pediatric imaging, vascular and interventional radiology, and women imaging. This journal provides immediate open access to its content on the principle that making research freely available to the public and supports a greater global exchange of knowledge.

Abstract

The most frequent injury to the knee is an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear. MRI is a highly accurate method for diagnosing ACL injuries. Research on injuries associated with ACL tears in Malang City is still relatively limited, which is why it is necessary to conduct research at Dr. Saiful Anwar Hospital. A descriptive observational study was conducted over a one-year period. Patients with ACL damage, as documented in the Radiology Information System at the time of the MRI examination, made up the study population. We examined information from ACL tear cases in the Radiology Department as well as injuries to the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), medial meniscus, lateral meniscus, medial collateral ligament (MCL), and lateral collateral ligament (LCL). We discovered that, of the 58 ACL tear patients, 83% were male and 17% were female. At 44.8%, the frequency was highest among those aged 21 to 30. Interestingly, 81% of participants had a partial ACL injury and 19% had a total ACL tear. The PCL (29%), the LCL (15.5%), the MCL (13.8%), the medial meniscus (56.2%), and the lateral meniscus (51.7%) are the most commonly associated injuries with ACL tears. Males in this group who are young and physically active are more likely to suffer from ACL tears. Due to the biomechanical connection between the ACL and menisci, meniscus injuries are the most common concomitant injuries observed in patients with ACL rupture.
Acute Appendicitis on Computed Tomography: Findings, Pitfalls, Complications, and Mimics

Abstract

Acute appendicitis is one of the most common causes of abdominal pain. It is largely a clinical diagnosis, while imaging may be employed to aid diagnosis. Unfortunately, establishing a diagnosis of acute appendicitis based on imaging is challenging. We present computed tomography findings, pitfalls, complications, and mimics of acute appendicitis.

Abstract

Nonsurgical radiotherapy is a new treatment option for patients with early-stage, operable breast cancer. However, there is no standard imaging method for follow-up after radiotherapy. A 61-year-old woman with early-stage operable right breast cancer was treated with radical radiotherapy using helical tomotherapy. After delivering 50 Gy in 25 fractions to the whole breast, adaptive boost radiotherapy was delivered to the residual tumor with a total dose of 30 Gy in 10 fractions. A 61-year-old woman with early-stage operable right breast cancer underwent radical radiotherapy with helical tomotherapy. After delivering 50 Gy in 25 fractions to the whole breast, adaptive boost radiotherapy was delivered to the residual tumor with a total dose of 30 Gy in 10 fractions. There were no serious adverse events during radiotherapy and 6 years of follow-up. After radiotherapy, non-contrast MRI with diffusion-weighted imaging was performed every 6 months. The tumor completely disappeared 24 months after radiotherapy,The tumor completely disappeared 24 months after radiotherapy, and recurrence was not evident during 6 years of follow-up. In conclusion, upfront adaptive radiotherapy with helical tomotherapy may be a viable option for patients with early breast cancer,, and non-contrast MRI with diffusion-weighted imaging may be a valuable imaging modality for follow-up.
