Spontaneous renal bleeding into the perinephric space is a rare but potentially life-threatening condition. Measuring the angiomyogenic component in renal angiomyolipoma could help address current knowledge gaps and aid in the more efficient selection of patients for therapeutic interventions. (Jesper Swärd et al.)

🔹 CEUS Controversies Explored:
Pregnancy 🤰 | Pediatrics 🧒 | Abdominal Trauma 🚑 | Complex Renal Cysts 🩺 | Endovascular Aortic Repair Follow-up 🫀

💡 Key considerations for safety, efficacy, and best practice in these challenging scenarios. (Paul S. Sidhu et al.)

Abstract The use of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in clinical practice is theoretically limited to the licensed indications: focal liver lesions, breast, peripheral arterial system, and the heart. In reality, there has been a continuous expansion of the deployment of CEUS examinations to many....

This study assesses degeneration of paraspinal & pelvic muscles in lumbar disc herniation (LDH) using MRI q-Dixon.

📊 85 LDH vs 48 controls
➡ CSA: no group differences
➡ PDFF: significantly ↑ in MF, ES, PM & GM in LDH
💡 Suggests fat infiltration may contribute to LDH pathology. (Jianping Wang et al.)
