Öğe Application of first-pass contrast bolus tracking sequence for the assessment of morphology and flow dynamics in cardiac MRI(AVES, 2013) Paksoy, Yahya; Ozbek, Orhan; Gumus, Serter; Koc, Osman; Nayman, Alaaddin; Kerimoglu, UlkuPURPOSE There are two well-known indications for first-pass perfusion in the literature. First is the evaluation of Myocardial ischemia, and the other is the evaluation of tumor vascularity. Our aim was to assess the value of a first-pass Contrast bolus tracking sequence (FPCBTS) for cases unrelated to these pathologies. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 35 patients (age range, 1 day to 66 years; mean age, 10.4 +/- 19.2 years; median age, 4.5 months) with suspected congenital (n=31) and acquired (n=4) heart and great vessel disease Were included in the study. All the patients underwent cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and FPCBTS, and 20 patients underwent contrast enhanced magnetic resonance angiography (CE-MRA). We used cardiac MRI and CE-MRA for anatomic evaluation and FPCBTS for dynamic flow evaluation. RESULTS Truncus arteriosus, double outlet right ventricle, tetralogy of Fallot; corrected transposition of great arteries, atrial and ventricular septal defect, aortic rupture, cardiac hydatid cyst, tricuspid atresia, anomalous pulmonary venous return; and interrupted aorta were detected using the technique described here. Septal defects in six patients arid atrial aneurysm in two patients were excluded. The shunt gap and flow direction of the septal defects, a ruptured Wall in a dissected aorta, a hydatid cyst, and the atrial relationship in two cases with paracardiac masses Were diagnosed easily using this dynamic evaluation technique. CONCLUSION FPCBTS Can be performed in addition to cardiac MRI and CE-MRA to reveal flow dynamics and morphology.Öğe Effects of body mass index, mesenteric and abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue on the spinopelvic parameters(SPRINGER WIEN, 2015) Uysal, Emine; Paksoy, Yahya; Koplay, Mustafa; Nayman, Alaaddin; Gumus, SerterThe purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of body mass index (BMI), thickness of the abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue (ASAT), thickness of the mesenteric adipose tissue (MAT), weight and height on spinopelvic parameters. A total of 400 patients presented to the radiology department for whole abdominal computed tomography were included in the study. Patients' weight and height were measured to calculate BMI. Thickness of ASAT and MAT, lumbosacral angle (LSA), sacral slope (SS), pelvic tilt (PT), and pelvic incidence (PI) were measured from the images obtained. We analyzed the effects of BMI, ASAT, and MAT on spinopelvic parameters. In addition, patients included in the study were screened for isthmic spondylolisthesis and transitional vertebrae. Statistical analysis was carried out using SPSS 15.0 package software. p < 0.05 Values were considered statistically significant. BMI and thickness of ASAT and MAT increased with aging both in male and female individuals. There was a positive correlation between PI and weight, thickness of ASAT and thickness of MAT, while a negative correlation was found between PI and height (p < 0.01). SS angle was positively correlated with weight (p < 0.01). A weak positive correlation was found between PT angle and thickness of MAT and height (p < 0.05). The rate of transitional vertebrae and isthmic spondylolisthesis was 2 and 4.6 %, consecutively. PI and SS values were significantly higher in the subjects having spondylolisthesis than normal population (p < 0.01). It should be kept in mind that obesity might increase the risk for development of spondylolisthesis by causing increase in PI angle.Öğe Endovascular Management of Massive Gastrointestinal Bleeding Associated with Polyarteritis Nodosa(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2009) Koc, Osman; Ozbek, Orhan; Gumus, Serter; Demir, Ali[Abstract not Available]Öğe The morphometric analysis of the V2 and V3 segments of the vertebral artery: Normal values on MDCT(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2009) Kiresi, Demet; Gumus, Serter; Cengiz, Sahika Liva; Cicekdbasi, AynurA potential hazard in midline posterior fossa craniectomy may be the injury of vertebral artery. That's why vertebral artery evaluation prior to surgery may prevent dangerous complications. Advancements in multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) have provided detailed demonstration of the vertebral artery at the craniocervical junction and its relationships with atlas and axis. We aimed to define the normal anatomic relationship of the V2 and V3 part of the vertebral artery on MDCT. In total, 33 patients underwent MDCT angiography scan with suspected cranial aneurysm. V2 and V3 segments of vertebral artery were evaluated. Eight measurements (B, C, D, E, G, H, X, and Y line) were taken from MDCT images. For B and C, a line initially passing through the body of axis and spinous process and determining the midline was formed. Then, the vertical distance of vertebral artery from the level of transverse foramen of axis and loop to this midline was measured. For D and G, the vertical distance of vertebral artery to the midline from the upper and lower margin levels of transverse foramen of atlas was measured after a line establishing the midline passing through the anterior and posterior tubercles of atlas was drawn first. For E, transverse diameter of vertebral artery was measured at the loop level of V2 segment. For H, the vertical distance at the point where vertebral artery entered dura in the line passing from the midline of foramen magnum at anterior-posterior plane was measured. For X and Y, two different points of horizontal part of the vertebral artery were determined. One of these two points was the lateral one which was the origin of the horizontal part in the transverse foramen, the other was the intersection point on atlas. Average distances for both sides from transverse foramen of the axis, the loop of axoatlantal part and the lower border of the atlas of the vertebral artery to the midline were 20.97 mm on the right, 22.29 mm on the left; 27.19 mm on the right, 28.34 mm on the left; and 25.75 mm on the right and 27.21 mm on the left, respectively. Average distances for both sides from the upper border of the atlas, and at its penetration through dura were 27.40 mm on the right, 28.94 mm on the left; and 10.90 mm on the right and 10.93 mm on the left, respectively. Distances between spinous process and intersection of vertebral artery with horizontal part were 35.79 mm on the right and 36.63 mm on the left laterally, and 22.27 mm on the right and 22.62 mm on the left medially. MDCT angiography is a powerful test to demonstrate the vasculature of the head and neck. Bony structures and adjacent vessel morphology can be evaluated by this technique. The evaluation of craniocervical region prior to surgery with MDCT may be helpful to avoid intraoperative vascular injuries. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
