FINAL DIAGNOSE CASE-8

   FINAL DIAGNOSE CASE NO - 8 (FB and Insta)

       Report Format (Radiology case - 8)

Patient Information

  • Age/Sex: 50-year-old female
  • Clinical History: Chronic chest pain, cough, and shortness of breath and mild fever..

     HRCT Chest Report Summary

Findings:

Image -1 

  • Left upper lobe shows evidence of fibrotic changes with architectural distortion and traction bronchiectasis.
  • Image -2 

  • Multiple air-filled cystic lesions suggestive of post-infectious cystic bronchiectasis.
    Image -3


  • Subpleural thickening is noted in the posterior segments, especially on the left side.
  • No evidence of active cavitary lesion or pleural effusion.
  • Mild volume loss seen with mediastinal shift towords right side.

Impression:

  • Imaging features are consistent with post-tuberculous sequelae (fibrosis, bronchiectasis, and cyst formation).
  • No evidence of active pulmonary tuberculosis at present.
  • Recommend correlation with sputum AFB/CBNAAT and clinical evaluation.

Final Diagnosis -Insta and FB post

Image
                      Final Diagnosis : Achalasia with Megaesophagus (Advanced Stage). 🔍 Radiologic Evidence: 🩻 Chest X-ray (Image 3) : Shows a widened mediastinum with a long, tubular opacity . Evidence of air-fluid level and mottled density , suggestive of retained food/debris in a dilated esophagus. Esophagus appears greatly dilated , deviating slightly to the left — classic for chronic achalasia . 📸 CT Scan (Images 1 & 2 – Coronal and Sagittal) : Demonstrates a massively dilated esophagus filled with fluid, food debris, and gas . No discrete mass or stricture is visible, helping rule out malignancy (pseudoachalasia) . The esophagus extends well below the carina, almost to the gastroesophageal junction, with a characteristic tapered narrowing at the LES ("bird beak" sign may be inferred on barium). 🧠 Clinical Correlation: 10-year history of progressive dysphagia to both solids and liquids. Worsen...

FINAL DIAGNOSE CASE-9

Image
  FINAL DIAGNOSE CASE-9 (FB & INSTA) The X-ray image you provided shows a classic "coffee bean sign" in the left side of the abdomen, indicated by the red arrows. This radiological sign is highly suggestive of: Diagnosis: Sigmoid Volvulus Explanation: The coffee bean sign represents a massively dilated loop of sigmoid colon that has twisted on its mesentery, creating the shape of a coffee bean. The central cleft of the "bean" points towards the site of the torsion. The gas-filled, dilated colon displaces surrounding structures. Key Features on the X-ray: The dilated loop of bowel with a central longitudinal cleft. The apex of the loop typically points to the right upper quadrant (but in this case, it appears left-dominant). Absence of gas in the rectum. Possible "kidney-shaped" appearance of the loop. Next Steps: Confirm with CT abdomen (may show “whirl sign”). Endoscopy.         NOTE- THIS IMAGE GENERATED BY META AI..

FINAL DIAGNOSE CASE -.....

Image
  FINAL DIAGNOSE- CASE NO. (FB AND INSTA )                          (Myelitis Ossificans ) This lateral elbow X-ray shows a well-defined, rounded, calcified mass in the soft tissue anterior to the distal humerus and not attached to the bone. The characteristic zonal pattern of ossification —with a more radiolucent center and denser peripheral ossification—supports the diagnosis of:    Myositis Ossificans ✅ Key Radiological Features: Location : Soft tissue ( commonly post-traumatic ), not arising from bone. Zonal ossification : Peripheral mature bone with central lucency. Well-circumscribed lesion . No cortical destruction or periosteal reaction , helping to differentiate it from aggressive neoplasms like osteosarcoma. 🧠 Important Differentials: Osteosarcoma : Irregular margins, bone destruction, and central ossification (opposite of MO). Soft tissue sarcoma with calcification : Less organized...
