Pt reports that the shortness of breath began during adult day-care today, around 12PM. It began suddenly, which she states is usually the case for her asthma attacks. She was given O2 in the center and her SOB improved. The SOB worsened when she was off the O2 on her way home. Upon her arrival home, she appeared in distress to her daughter, tachypneic, and she had a supported fall. Her SOB did not improve with albuterol and so her daughter called an ambulance. She reports very mild CP associated with this attack today. She denies fevers, chills, palpitations, syncope, leg swelling, orthopnea, or PND. She began having episodic SOB and was diagnosed with asthma about ___ years ago. She has been having daily SOB asthma attacks which usually improve with albuterol. However, possibly due to incorrect use of her inhaler, she is usually out of her albuterol before she can get another one. On a few occasions, she had to use her daughter's inhaler to control her attacks. She is not recieving any other treatment for her asthma at the moment. Today's attack seemed the most severe in these ___ years. In the ED, initial vital signs were 98.4 67 147/67 24 100% 10L Non-Rebreather. She initially required a non-rebreather.

He describes URI sypmtoms starting 4 days ago which progressed to cough with dyspnea. He went to an urgent care center, where pt reports a CXR was negative for pneumonia. Nevertheless, he was started on azithromycin, possibly for bronchitis vs. URI (___). Despite this he required increasing frequency of albuterol nebulizers at home, and his father reports increasing cough with mucous production, requiring quad cough assistance. Last night, he developed respiratory distress and was brought by ambulance to an OSH. There, he was tachypneic and hypoxemic on NC but reportedly satting well on ventimask. He was found to have Na 101, K 2.8, Mg 1.0 and unilateral L whiteout noted on CXR. Other labs include TropI <0.015, lactate 1.4, WBC 5.9, Plt 170, Na+ 102 @ 05:10am, Ddimer 2.02 (elevated, RR 0.19-0.5 mg/L), Alb 2.6, AST 140, ALT 91, ALP 181, and CPK 643. He was given Zosyn and Azithromycin for pneumonia ___ a total volume of 350 cc's D5W), Duonebs, 3g Mg, and 40mEq K. He received a total of 450 cc's of normal saline at the OSH. UOP there was 4.1 L. Mental status was reportedly completely normal with no report of seizure, but he was started on 500 cc's of 3% saline at 20 cc's/hr through a PIV prior to transfer. On arrival to the ___ ED, he reported feeling fatigued and dyspneic without much change ___ his sypmtoms since his initial presentation. ___ the ED, intial VS were 97.5 71 118/86 22 96% 6L.

IMAGING ================================================ CXR (___): Extensive left lung opacification concerning for pneumonia. Right lower lung reticular opacities may reflect aspiration or pneumonia. Probable moderate left pleural effusion. Recommend followup to resolution. CXR (___): Generalized improvement ___ background lung density concurrent with mild decrease ___ heart size suggests improvement ___ the component of pulmonary edema, but considerable abnormality remains, particular bibasilar consolidation due to infection or hemorrhage. Left pleural effusion is probably moderate ___ size, unchanged. There is no pneumothorax. ET tube is ___ standard placement, transesophageal drainage tube passes into the stomach and out of view. Left PIC line ends ___ the mid SVC. CXR (___): ___ comparison with the study of ___, there is little overall change. Monitoring and support devices remain ___ place. Bibasilar at areas of opacification are again seen. On the left, poor definition of the hemidiaphragms suggests substantial volume loss ___ the left lower lobe. Again, however, ___ the appropriate clinical setting it would be difficult to definitely exclude superimposed pneumonia. The contrast material ___ the the esophagus is not definitely appreciated on this study. CT ABD/PELVIS (___): IMPRESSION: 1. Normal appearing liver. 2. Small, focal dissection ___ the abdominal aorta, extending from below the right renal artery to the right common iliac artery. No evidence of end organ ischemia. 3. Thickened bladder. While this may represent a neurogenic bladder, correlation with urinalysis is recommended to exclude acute on chronic cystitis. 4. Trace amount of ascites, non drainable. 5. Findings ___ the chest reported separately. CT CHEST W/CONTRAST (___): IMPRESSION: 1. Bilateral pulmonary opacities, some of which are consolidative, some of which are ground-glass, and some of which are ___, are ___ keeping with the history of a Staph pneumonia. The different opacities likely represent the infectious process at different levels of maturity. Of note, one opacity at the right apex has a small central cavitation. 2. Mediastinal and left hilar lymphadenopathy. This is likely reactive, though a repeat chest CT is recommended after treatment to ensure resolution of both the opacities and this lymphadenopathy. CTA TORSO (___): -Unchanged appearance of focal dissection extending from below the right renal artery to the right common iliac arterial ostium. -More confluent solid/ground-glass opacification of the right middle and lower lobes compared to prior study. Numerous solid/ground-glass pulmonary nodules are again demonstrated within the visualized lungs, consistent with history of pneumonia. New moderate left subpulmonic effusion. -Mediastinal adenopathy, likely reactive. -Marked bladder wall thickening, possibly representing cystitis. Mild prominence of retroperitoneal nodes, possibly reactive. - Other findings as detailed above. CTA CHEST (___): 1. No evidence of pulmonary embolism to the segmental level. Evaluation of the subsegmental pulmonary arteries is limited by respiratory motion. 2. Interval improvement ___ multifocal pneumonia with persistent left lower lobe consolidation. 3. Unchanged cavitary nodule ___ the right lung apex. 4. Stable mediastinal lymphadenopathy, likely reactive. 5. ET tube with secretions above the cuff. ECHO ___: The left atrium is normal ___ size.

Radiology Report INDICATION: Quadriplegia, Staph pneumonia and new transaminitis. Evaluate left-sided pleural effusion as well as liver given transaminitis. TECHNIQUE: MDCT axial images were acquired through the torso after the uneventful administration of 130 ml of Omnipaque. Coronal and sagittal reformations were provided and reviewed. Oral contrast was administered. Findings in the chest are reported separately. DOSE: DLP: 1304.50 mGy-cm COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: Findings in the chest, including the left lower lobe consolidation and pleural effusion, are reported separately. Abdomen: Study is limited by bowel motion artifact in the anterior abdomen. The liver enhances homogeneously without focal lesions. There is a small amount of fluid within the gallbladder fossa in the setting of trace abdominal ascites, otherwise, the gallbladder is normal. There is no intra or extrahepatic biliary ductal dilation. The spleen, pancreas and adrenal glands are unremarkable. The kidneys enhance symmetrically and excrete contrast without hydronephrosis. Bilateral renal hypodensities are too small to characterize but are presumably simple cysts. An enteric tube courses into the fundus of the stomach. Evaluation of the bowel is again limited by motion artifact. There is no bowel wall thickening or obstruction. There is no free air. There is no retroperitoneal or mesenteric lymphadenopathy. The portal vein, splenic vein and superior mesenteric vein are patent. An infrarenal IVC filter is noted. The aorta is normal caliber.

DOSE: Please see the abdominal CT report for the total DLP value. COMPARISON: Multiple chest radiographs, dating to ___. FINDINGS: The thyroid gland is enlarged. No discrete nodules identified. An irregularity in the skin along the anterior neck may be from a prior tracheostomy. There is no discrete fluid collection or stranding in the subcutaneous tissues. There is no axillary lymphadenopathy. There are numerous enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes measuring up to 15 mm. Additionally, there is one enlarged left hilar lymph node measuring 13 mm (2, 28). There is no right hilar lymphadenopathy. The heart is normal in size. There is no pericardial effusion. The thoracic aorta is normal in caliber without significant atherosclerotic calcifications. The main pulmonary arteries are enlarged for patient of this age, suggesting pulmonary hypertension. An endotracheal tube is in satisfactory position within the mid trachea. The mainstem bronchi are patent. Mucus plugging and bronchial wall thickening is noted throughout the segmental and subsegmental bronchi, likely related to the underlying infection. Motion significantly limits evaluation of the bases. Within the limitations, there is a dense low attenuation consolidation filling the majority of the left lower lobe with some associated volume loss. There are air bronchograms. This is most consistent with a pneumonia. Additionally, there are other opacities throughout all lobes of the long. For example, in the right upper lobe there is a rounded opacity with a small central cavitation (4, 43). Additionally there are ___ and ground-glass opacities with associated significant bronchial wall thickening. In the right middle and lower lobes, there are similar ___ opacities and macronodular opacities. In the left upper lobe there are innumerable nodular opacities which are coalescing into a larger opacity. All these opacities are in keeping with a history of staph pneumonia, and likely represent the infection at different stages of maturity. There is a small left pleural effusion. No right pleural effusion is identified. There is no pneumothorax. There are no concerning lytic or sclerotic osseous lesions. A few mild compression deformities and moderate degenerative changes in the upper thoracic spine are likely chronic. Incidentally noted is osseous bridging between a few anterior left ribs (8, 69 and 67) which may be posttraumatic Please see the abdominal CT report for complete subdiaphragmatic details. IMPRESSION: 1. Bilateral pulmonary opacities, some of which are consolidative, some of which are ground-glass, and some of which are ___, are in keeping with the history of a Staph pneumonia. The different opacities likely represent the infectious process at different levels of maturity. Of note, one opacity at the right apex has a small central cavitation. 2. Mediastinal and left hilar lymphadenopathy. This is likely reactive, though a repeat chest CT is recommended after treatment to ensure resolution of both the opacities and this lymphadenopathy.

Patchy marginal enhancement at this site, above, likely reflecting an organizing hematoma. 3. Numerous microbleeds in the usual target sites for hypertension; however, there are also atypical superficial foci, as well as evidence of superficial siderosis involving the posterior aspect of the right temporal lobe, raising the possibility of leptomeningeal involvement from underlying cerebral amyloid angiopathy. 4. No space-occupying lesion or pathologic enhancement elsewhere in the brain. 5. Relatively mild global atrophy, with no finding to suggest hydrocephalus. CT brain without contrast on ___: The intraparenchymal hemorrhage centered in the right basal ganglia is stable in size, measuring 2.1 x 1.3 cm (3:18). There is no new hemorrhage. There is no shift of normally midline structures. The ventricles and sulci are normal in size configuration. The basal cisterns are patent and the gray-white matter differentiation is preserved. Periventricular white matter hypodensities are consistent with chronic small vessel ischemic disease. The visualized paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells, and middle ear cavities are clear. IMPRESSION: Stable right basal ganglia intraparenchymal hemorrhage.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - requires assistance or aid (walker or cane). Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report HISTORY: History of intraparenchymal hemorrhage, weakness, evaluate for intraparenchymal bleed. COMPARISON: Reference CT from ___. TECHNIQUE: Contiguous axial MDCT images were obtained through the brain without the use of intravenous contrast material. Reformatted coronal and sagittal and thin section bone algorithm reconstructed images were obtained. Due to motion, multiple scans were attempted. FINDINGS: There continues to be a right thalamic hemorrhage with associated edema, relatively similar in size compared to the CT from ___ at 10:43 a.m. No new acute hemorrhage, mass effect or vascular territorial infarction is noted. There is preservation of normal gray-white matter differentiation. Periventricular and subcortical white matter hyperdensities are likely sequela of chronic small vessel ischemic disease. The ventricles and sulci are appropriate in size and configuration for age. vExtensive vascular calcifications are seen with ectatic arteries. No fractures are identified. The visualized paranasal sinuses and mastoid air cells are clear. The globes are intact. IMPRESSION: Stable right thalamic hemorrhage with associated edema, similar in size compared to CT from ___ at 10:43 a.m. Radiology Report MR EXAMINATION OF THE BRAIN WITHOUT AND WITH CONTRAST, ___ HISTORY: ___ female with right intraparenchymal hemorrhage, history of cavernous hemangioma; evaluate extent of IPH, hydrocephalus and compression of the third ventricle. TECHNIQUE: Routine ___ enhanced MR examination, comprising T1-weighted axial SE and sagittal MP-RAGE sequences, the latter with axial and coronal reformations. FINDINGS: The study is compared with the NECT dated ___. Again demonstrated is the parenchymal hemorrhage centered in the right thalamus, demonstrating predominant T1-iso and T2-hyperintensity with "substantial blooming" susceptibility artifact on the GRE sequence, representing deoxyhemoglobin related to acute hemorrhage. There is a zone of vasogenic edema with some mass effect on adjacent structures, but no subfalcine or more central herniation. While there is no other acute hemorrhage, there is a superficial "blooming" artifact involving the posterior right temporal cortex, superficially (___), which may represent superficial siderosis. There are also numerous smaller foci of susceptibility artifact scattered through both cerebral hemispheres, including three such foci in the contralateral thalamus, as well as in the brainstem and both cerebellar hemispheres, without associated vasogenic edema. These deeper microbleeds are strongly suggestive of a hypertensive etiology, particularly given the current thalamic hemorrhage, as well as the moderate sequela of chronic small vessel ischemic disease. However, the more superficial foci of susceptibility artifact, not explained by calcification on the CT, as well as the apparent focal superficial siderosis, are more strongly suggestive of underlying cerebral amyloid angiopathy. The remainder of the examination demonstrates relatively mild global atrophy, with no finding to suggest hydrocephalus. Allowing for the extensive susceptibility artifact, above, there is no focus of slow diffusion to suggest acute ischemia, and the principal intracranial vascular flow voids, including those of the dural venous sinuses, are preserved and these structures enhance normally. There is wispy marginal enhancement about the hematoma, particularly its right posterolateral aspect (14:14, 101:78). Otherwise, there is no pathologic parenchymal, leptomeningeal or dural focus of enhancement. IMPRESSION: 1. Organizing hematoma with vasogenic edema centered in the right thalamus, likely hypertensive in origin. Given the presence of blood products at the site, evaluation for another underlying substrate, such as cavernous angioma, is quite limited. 2. Patchy marginal enhancement at this site, above, likely reflecting an organizing hematoma. 3. Numerous microbleeds in the usual target sites for hypertension; however, there are also atypical superficial foci, as well as evidence of superficial siderosis involving the posterior aspect of the right temporal lobe, raising the possibility of leptomeningeal involvement from underlying cerebral amyloid angiopathy. 4. No space-occupying lesion or pathologic enhancement elsewhere in the brain. 5. Relatively mild global atrophy, with no finding to suggest hydrocephalus. 6. Likely dolichoectasia of the intracranial vessels. Radiology Report STUDY: Pre-MRI orbits ___. CLINICAL HISTORY: ___ woman with right thalamic ICH and ocular implant. FINDINGS: Two views of the patient looking up and down demonstrate no radiopaque densities projecting over the orbits. The paranasal sinuses are within normal limits. Based on these images, there are no contraindications to MRI imaging. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST INDICATION: ___ year old woman with IPH // hemorrhage size.

Dear Mr. ___, It was our pleasure caring for you during your hospital stay at ___. You were admitted due to cough and shortness of breath. We think that this was due to worsening of your heart failure, likely due to missed doses of your water pill (torsemide). We gave you an intravenous version of the water pill and your breathing improved. We also performed an ultrasound of your heart that showed slight worsening of its filling ability. Your discharge weight is 97.9kg. You should weigh yourself at the same time every morning. If your weight goes up by more than 3lbs in one day, please call your doctor. You should also take all of your pills as prescribed. Please follow up with your cardiologist, nephrologist, and primary care physician. We wish you the best. -Your ___ Care Team

DOSE: sequence: 1) Sequenced Acquisition 16.0 s, 16.0 cm; CTDIvol = 50.2 mGy (Head) DLP = 802.7 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Head) = 803 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: MRI head ___ FINDINGS: 5 mm calcified focus arising from the right parasagittal parietal inner table (series 3, image 47) corresponds to a focus gradient echo susceptibility artifact seen on prior MRI, likely representing a calcified meningioma. There is no intra or extra-axial mass effect, acute hemorrhage or large territory infarct. Ventricles and sulci are within expected limits for the patient's age. The imaged paranasal sinuses are clear. Mastoid air cells and middle ear cavities are well aerated. The bony calvarium is intact. IMPRESSION: No acute intracranial abnormality on noncontrast head CT. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: MR HEAD W AND W/O CONTRAST T9112 MR HEAD INDICATION: History of high-grade diffuse large B-cell lymphoma post chemotherapy presenting with new onset diplopia. Evaluate for infarct or leptomeningeal spread of disease, in particular the cavernous sinus. TECHNIQUE: Sagittal and axial T1 weighted imaging were performed. After administration of 5 mL of Gadavist intravenous contrast, axial imaging was performed with gradient echo, FLAIR, diffusion, and T1 technique. Sagittal MPRAGE imaging was performed and re-formatted in axial and coronal orientations. COMPARISON: MR head ___. Noncontrast head CT ___. FINDINGS: Previously noted focus of susceptibility artifact along the right parietal dura corresponds to a 5 mm dural calcification on recent CT examination (6:16), without evidence of contrast enhancement on MP RAGE images (10:139). There is no evidence for an enhancing mass or abnormal meningeal contrast enhancement. There is no evidence for edema, acute infarction, or new blood products. Ventricles and sulci are normal in size. A single punctate focus of left frontal subcortical white matter FLAIR hyperintensity is unchanged, nonspecific, though may reflect changes from chronic small vessel ischemic disease (7:20). The principal intracranial vascular flow voids are preserved. Dural venous sinuses appear patent on postcontrast MP RAGE images. This routine brain MRI is not optimized for detailed evaluation of the cavernous sinuses. The cavernous sinuses appear normal in size without evidence for a large mass. IMPRESSION: No evidence for intracranial metastatic disease. 5 mm right parietal dural calcification versus completely calcified meningioma is stable. RECOMMENDATION(S): If clinically warranted, a dedicated cavernous sinus protocol MRI with fat-suppressed postcontrast images could better assess the cavernous sinuses. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: MR ORBIT ___ ANDW/O CONTRAST T9123 MR ___ INDICATION: History of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma presenting with new diplopia and right eyelid ptosis. TECHNIQUE: Multiplanar, multi-sequence MRI of the orbits was performed before and after the uneventful administration of 5 mL Gadavist intravenous contrast agent. Images acquired at 3 mm slice thickness. Precontrast sequences included axial and coronal T1, coronal STIR. Postcontrast sequences included axial and coronal T1 with fat saturation. COMPARISON: MR head ___ and ___. FINDINGS: ORBITS: There is asymmetric thickening and enhancement of the left oculomotor nerve (series 7, image 9 and 10; cyst series 8, image 23), from the interpeduncular cistern to the cavernous sinus which may represent lymphomatous involvement. In addition, there is less prominent enhancement along the right oculomotor nerve as it enters the cavernous sinus (series 7, image 9). The remainder of the visualized cranial nerves are grossly unremarkable. The bony orbits and preseptal soft tissues are normal. The globes are intact and normal in appearance. The optic nerves and complex are normal, without edema or abnormal enhancement. The extraocular muscles are uniform in size and normal in signal. The lacrimal apparatus is normal. Retrobulbar soft tissues are normal. OTHER FINDINGS: The imaged portion of the brain is normal, without masses, abnormal enhancement, or edema, better assessed on the recent dedicated head MR. ___ cavernous sinuses are unremarkable. There is trace mucosal wall thickening in the floors of the bilateral maxillary sinuses. The remainder of the imaged paranasal sinuses and mastoid air cells are clear. IMPRESSION: 1. Thickening and enhancement of the left oculomotor nerve from the interpeduncular cistern to the cavernous sinus. Mild enhancement of the right oculomotor nerve near the cavernous sinus. Given the patient's clinical history, this may represent lipomatous involvement. 2. No cavernous sinus lesion identified. NOTIFICATION: The findings were discussed with ___, M.D. by ___, M.D. on the telephone on ___ at 6:51 ___, 20 minutes after discovery of the findings.

Dear Mr. ___, You were admitted to ___ ___ and underwent a laparoscopic appendectomy. You are recovering well and are now ready for discharge. Please follow the instructions below to continue your recovery: ACTIVITY: -Do not drive until you have stopped taking pain medicine and feel you could respond in an emergency. -You may climb stairs. -You may go outside, but avoid traveling long distances until you see your surgeon at your next visit. -Don't lift more than ___ lbs for 4 weeks. (This is about the weight of a briefcase or a bag of groceries.) This applies to lifting children, but they may sit on your lap. -You may start some light exercise when you feel comfortable. -You will need to stay out of bathtubs or swimming pools for a time while your incision is healing. Ask your doctor when you can resume tub baths or swimming. HOW YOU MAY FEEL: -You may feel weak or "washed out" for a couple of weeks. You might want to nap often. Simple tasks may exhaust you. -You may have a sore throat because of a tube that was in your throat during surgery. -You might have trouble concentrating or difficulty sleeping. You might feel somewhat depressed. -You could have a poor appetite for a while. Food may seem unappealing. -All of these feelings and reactions are normal and should go away in a short time. If they do not, tell your surgeon. YOUR INCISION: -Tomorrow you may shower and remove the gauzes over your incisions. Under these dressing you may have small plastic bandages called steri-strips. Do not remove steri-strips for 2 weeks. (These are the thin paper strips that might be on your incision.) But if they fall off before that that's okay). If your incisions are closed with dermabond (surgical glue), this will fall off on it's own in ___ days. -Your incisions may be slightly red. This is normal. -You may gently wash away dried material around your incision. -Avoid direct sun exposure to the incision area. -Do not use any ointments on the incision unless you were told otherwise. -You may see a small amount of clear or light red fluid staining your dressing or clothes. If the staining is severe, please call your surgeon. -You may shower. As noted above, ask your doctor when you may resume tub baths or swimming. YOUR BOWELS: -Constipation is a common side effect of narcotic pain medications. If needed, you may take a stool softener (such as Colace, one capsule) or gentle laxative (such as milk of magnesia, 1 tbs) twice a day. You can get both of these medicines without a prescription. -If you go 48 hours without a bowel movement, or have pain moving the bowels, call your surgeon. PAIN MANAGEMENT: -It is normal to feel some discomfort/pain following abdominal surgery. This pain is often described as "soreness". -Your pain should get better day by day. If you find the pain is getting worse instead of better, please contact your surgeon. -You will receive a prescription for pain medicine to take by mouth. It is important to take this medicine as directed. o Do not take it more frequently than prescribed. Do not take more medicine at one time than prescribed. -Your pain medicine will work better if you take it before your pain gets too severe. -Talk with your surgeon about how long you will need to take prescription pain medicine. Please don't take any other pain medicine, including non-prescription pain medicine, unless your surgeon has said its okay. -If you are experiencing no pain, it is okay to skip a dose of pain medicine. -Remember to use your "cough pillow" for splinting when you cough or when you are doing your deep breathing exercises. If you experience any of the following, please contact your surgeon: - sharp pain or any severe pain that lasts several hours - pain that is getting worse over time - pain accompanied by fever of more than 101 - a drastic change in nature or quality of your pain MEDICATIONS: Take all the medicines you were on before the operation just as you did before, unless you have been told differently.

MRCP ___ IMPRESSION: 1. Ischemic cholangitis with bile lakes in segments VII and VIII status post TACE. No MRI findings to suggest superinfection. 2. Peripheral enhancement surrounding a 1.3 cm treated lesion in segment VIII may reflect post treatment change, although a small developing abscess is not excluded. 3. Overall improvement in diffuse hepatic metastases particularly in the treated segments, however multiple persistent enhancing lesions in segments V and VI remain consistent with viable HCC metastases. MRCP ___: IMPRESSION: Progression of sequela of ischemic cholangiopathy with increasing size of previously seen the bile lakes. Despite presence of gas within the lakes, and heterogeneous parenchymal enhancement, there is no one particular collection which demonstrates definitive features of infection or different features from the collections elsewhere. Gas and enhancement can be accounted for by recent interventions, sphincterotomy, and vascular insults. Numerous treated and several viable foci of metastatic disease. Bilateral renal parenchymal edema and heterogeneous enhancement suggestive of pyelonephritis. Echo ___ The left atrium is mildly dilated. Left ventricular wall thickness, cavity size and regional/global systolic function are normal (LVEF >55%). Doppler parameters are most consistent with normal left ventricular diastolic function. Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The diameters of aorta at the sinus, ascending and arch levels are normal. The aortic valve leaflets (3) appear structurally normal with good leaflet excursion and no aortic stenosis. Trace aortic regurgitation is seen.

TECHNIQUE: OPERATORS: Dr. ___ resident) and Dr. ___ ___ radiology attending) performed the procedure. The attending, Dr. ___ was present and supervising throughout the procedure. Dr. ___ radiologist, personally supervised the trainee during the key components of the procedure and reviewed and agreed with the trainee's findings. ANESTHESIA: General anesthesia was administered by the anesthesiology department. Please refer to anesthesiology notes for details. MEDICATIONS: 1 g ceftriaxone CONTRAST: 65 ml of Optiray contrast. FLUOROSCOPY TIME AND DOSE: 16.4 min, 3000 cGy-cm2 PROCEDURE: 1. Transabdominal ultrasound. 2. Ultrasound guided right percutaneous transhepatic bile duct access. 3. Right cholangiogram PROCEDURE DETAILS: Following the discussion of the risks, benefits, and alternatives to the procedure, written informed consent was obtained from the patient. The patient was then brought to the angiography suite and placed supine on the exam table. A pre-procedure time-out was performed per ___ protocol. The right abdomen was prepped and draped in the usual sterile fashion. Multiple passes were made through the liver utilizing a 21 gauge cook needle under ultrasound and fluoroscopic guidance. Initial images demonstrate a irregular collection of contrast near segments 7 and 8 of the liver corresponding to the CT images. Ultrasound was utilized extensively which did not demonstrate any dilated bile ducts, only normal caliber ducts adjacent to portal vessels. Eventually, under fluoroscopic guidance, a Cook needle was advanced into the right posterior biliary system and a right-sided cholangiogram was performed which demonstrated normal caliber bile ducts and prompt flow to the CBD and into the small bowel. The right anterior bile duct was also opacified and was noted to be of normal caliber and coursing through the area of earlier identified collection. There was no clear communication with this collection and the traversing bile duct. Given that there was no dilation or obstruction of the biliary system and prompt flow of contrast through the common bile duct, as well is no communication with the collections surrounding the right anterior ducts, the decision was made not to place a percutaneous drain. The needles were removed. The patient tolerated the procedure well. There were no immediate complications. FINDINGS: 1. Normal caliber intra and extrahepatic bile ducts with prompt drainage through to the duodenum and no evidence of obstruction. 2. Opacified collection of likely necrotic tissue surrounding the right anterior ducts, but with no clear communication with the transversing ducts. IMPRESSION: Transhepatic cholangiogram performed with results as above. RECOMMENDATION: MRCP could be performed to evaluate the relation between the collections demonstrated on the previous CT and the biliary system. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: MRI abdomen with and without contrast. INDICATION: ___ year old woman with liver cancer s/p TACE now with cholangitis and CT with ?biliary abscesses but attempted drainage unsuccessful, need to characterize these further. PLEASE ALSO DO WITH CONTRAST TO CHARACTERIZE LIVER TUMOR // ?biliary abscesses but attempted drainage unsuccessful, need to characterize these further. PLEASE ALSO DO WITH CONTRAST TO CHARACTERIZE LIVER TUMOR TECHNIQUE: Multiplanar T1 and T2 weighted sequences were obtained in a 1.5 Tesla magnet including dynamic 3D imaging performed prior to, during, and after the uneventful administration 8cc of ___. COMPARISON: MRI abdomen of ___ FINDINGS: Minimal atelectasis is present at the lung bases. There are no pleural effusions. The liver demonstrates changes of prior left hepatectomy. Multiple serpiginous areas of fluid signal intensity are present throughout segments VII and VIII following the course of the intrahepatic bile ducts. This appearance is characteristic for ischemic cholangitis and corresponds to the segments treated by recent TACE. There is no peripheral enhancement or loculated gas to suggest superinfection. A 1.3 cm lesion at the periphery of segment VIII now demonstrates progressive peripheral enhancement (1602:49), possibly due to treatment change. Other previously arterial enhancing lesions in segments VIII and VII are no longer seen. Numerous lesions persist in segments V and VI ; essentially all of these display arterial phase hyperenhancement with subsequent washout consistent with HCC metastases. One lesion at the periphery of segment V is slightly enlarged, 1.3 cm currently from prior 0.9 cm (1601:84). Other lesions are smaller or less conspicuous: For example, a prior 0.9 cm lesion at the inferior margin of segment VI is not measurable on the current study. Two hyperenhancing foci in segment V, new from the prior exam, are most consistent with perfusion difference (1601:70). The spleen, pancreas, adrenal glands, and kidneys have a normal appearance. Visualized bowel and mesentery are unremarkable. There is no retroperitoneal or mesenteric lymphadenopathy. A small volume of free fluid is present in the pelvis. No concerning osseous lesion is identified. IMPRESSION: 1. Ischemic cholangitis with bile lakes in segments VII and VIII status post TACE. No MRI findings to suggest superinfection. 2. Peripheral enhancement surrounding a 1.3 cm treated lesion in segment VIII may reflect post treatment change, although a small developing abscess is not excluded. 3. Overall improvement in diffuse hepatic metastases particularly in the treated segments, however multiple persistent enhancing lesions in segments V and VI remain consistent with viable HCC metastases.

T1 and T2 weighted sequences are acquired both pre and post administration of 8 mL of gadavist. COMPARISON: Multiple prior abdominal CTs and MRIs most recently dating ___ FINDINGS: Hepatic morphology is consistent with provided history of a prior left hepatectomy. There has been a significant interval change since the most recent examination 3 days previously. The previously-seen bile lakes, denoted by serpiginous areas of fluid intensity along the course of the intrahepatic bile ducts are re-demonstrated. There appear to be at least three discretely separate fluid collections seen centrally originating adjacent to the resection margin. As these extend superiorly into segments VII and VIII, the middle fluid collection expands and bifurcates (5:14). This component has significantly increased in size from a 1.5 x 2.4 cm nonenhancing component to a 7.7 x 3.9 cm region of nonenhancement (903:30). The new areas of fluid signal correlate with the previously seen areas of parenchymal heterogeneity of signal and enhancement, presumably representing progressive liquefaction of ischemic parenchyma. While parts of this segment VIII abnormality demonstrate T2 hyperintensity of fluid (4:11), more peripheral areas are edematous and nonenhancing, but less T2 hyperintense (4:13). Each of these fluid pockets is variably T2 hyperintense and T1 hypointense and nonenhancing. There are punctate foci of susceptibility artifact within the bile lakes, consistent with gas. Despite this finding, there is no identified region of restricted diffusion and most have no surrounding rim of hyperenhancement to suggest suprainfection. This gas is likely on the basis of prior sphincterotomy given gas within the central bile duct, as well as prior attempted drainage. Bile lakes adjacent to the resection margin which were previously present and are unchanged in size do demonstrate a thin rim of hyperenhancement (904:54), particularly on delayed sequences. This likely represents maturation and organization rather than evidence of suprainfection. The extrahepatic bile duct appears in tact. The central intrahepatic biliary tree adjacent to the resection margin are notable for thickened, hyperenhancing walls (901:64). This is slightly more apparent on the prior examination. This may simply represent ischemic but intact bile duct walls. Cholangitis is not excluded. The portal venous system remains patent. However, the posterior branches are somewhat attenuated, likely due to mass effect from the enlarging bile lakes. This results in heterogeneous parenchymal enhancement, seen particularly on the arterial phase. The hepatic arteries are variable in their degree of enhancement as they course through the bile lakes. There are numerous foci of subtle T2 hypointensity, central nonenhancement and a rim of hyperenhancement throughout the liver. These appear to represent treated, nonviable metastases, correlating with previously artery hyperenhancing lesions. Several persistently arterially hyperenhancing and nodules are noted within segments V and VI. Some of these appear to have slightly increased in size by 1-2 mm (901:110). The spleen is relatively normal in size with maximum diameter of 13 cm. There is no evidence of chronic portal hypertension. Pancreas and adrenal glands are unremarkable. There is bilateral diffuse renal abnormality. The parenchyma is edematous on T2 weighted sequences, heterogeneous on DWI and enhances in a striated pattern (903:114). The appearance is highly suggestive of pyelonephritis, likely hematologically distributed. No ascites is currently appreciated. There is some subcutaneous edema noted, as well as a trace right pleural effusion. IMPRESSION: Progression of sequela of ischemic cholangiopathy with increasing size of previously seen the bile lakes. Despite presence of gas within the lakes, and heterogeneous parenchymal enhancement, there is no one particular collection which demonstrates definitive features of infection or different features from the collections elsewhere. Gas and enhancement can be accounted for by recent interventions, sphincterotomy, and vascular insults. Numerous treated and several viable foci of metastatic disease. Bilateral renal parenchymal edema and heterogeneous enhancement suggestive of pyelonephritis. NOTIFICATION: Findings were communicated via phone by Dr ___ to Dr ___ at approximately 9:30 am on ___.

Dr. ___ radiologist, personally supervised the trainee during the key components of the procedure and reviewed and agreed with the trainee's findings. ANESTHESIA: Moderate sedation was provided by administrating divided doses of 250mcg of fentanyl and 5 mg of midazolam throughout the total intra-service time of 53 minutes during which the patient's hemodynamic parameters were continuously monitored by an independent trained radiology nurse. 1% lidocaine was injected in the skin and subcutaneous tissues overlying the access site. MEDICATIONS: Fentanyl, midazolam. CONTRAST: 20 ml of Optiray contrast. FLUOROSCOPY TIME AND DOSE: 8.5 minutes, 513 cGy-cm2 PROCEDURE: 1. Transabdominal ultrasound. 2. Ultrasound-guided access into the mive echogenicity hepatic collection. 3. Placement of 8 ___ drainage catheter into the hepatic collection. The procedure, risks, benefits and alternatives were discussed with the patient and written informed consent was obtained. The abdomen was cleaned and draped in standard sterile fashion. A pre-procedure time-out was performed as per ___ protocol. Limited transabdominal ultrasound of the right upper quadrant was performed, Re demonstrating multiple heterogeneous and hyperechoic areas in the right lobe of the liver, towards the liver dome. Under ultrasound guidance, an entrance site was selected from a right intercostal approach. 1% lidocaine was instilled for local anesthesia. Under direct ultrasound guidance, a 21 gauge Cook needle was advanced into the dominant appearing hepatic collection. Upon return of small amount of brownish fluid, a Nitinol wire was advanced into the collection. A small skin incision was made. The needle was exchanged for an Accustick sheath, which was advanced over the wire and into the collection. The inner stiffener and dilator were removed. A ___ wire was advanced through the Accustick sheath and passed several times back and forth through the collection in attempts to disrupt any loculations or septations. A small injection with dilute contrast was then performed to opacify the hepatic collection. ___ wire was advanced through the Accustick sheath and coiled within the collection. The Accustick sheath was then removed and an 8 ___ APDL drainage catheter was advanced over the wire and into appropriate position. Positioning was confirmed with injection of dilute contrast. Approximately 12 cc of brownish opaque fluid was obtained and sent to microbiology. The pigtail was formed and locked with securing suture and the catheter was attached to a JP bulb for drainage. The catheter was secured to the skin with 0-silk suture and a Stat Lock device. Sterile dressings were applied. The patient tolerated the procedure well without any immediate post-procedure complications. FINDINGS: 1. Limited grayscale ultrasound imaging of the liver re- demonstrates multiple heterogeneous and hypoechoic areas within the right lobe of the liver, consistent with areas identified on the prior MRI. 2. Sinogram of the accessed collection demonstrates filling of the cavity. No obvious connection to the biliary tree is identified, however aggressive distension of the cavity was not performed given known infected nature of the fluid. 3. 8 ___ APDL drainage catheter placed. 4. 12 cc brownish fluid removed and sent for microbiology evaluation. IMPRESSION: Successful placement of 8 ___ drainage catheter into hepatic collection/cavity. RECOMMENDATION: Monitor output. When the patient is more clinically stable a contrast study through the catheter may be performed to assess for a communication with the biliary tree. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: Fistulagram INDICATION: History of fibrolamellar HCC status post TACE complicated by fluid collection status post percutaneous drain placement. Question of possible communication with the biliary tree. TECHNIQUE: Existing right abdominal percutaneous drainage catheter was gently injected with 50 cc Optiray contrast under continuous fluoroscopy DOSE: Fluoroscopy time: 60 seconds COMPARISON: Abscess drainage procedure ___. Abdominal ultrasound ___. Abdominal MR ___. FINDINGS: After gentle injection of Optiray contrast, opacification of the collection cavity is noted which appears to communicate with the common bile duct with prompt flow of the contrast material through the existing CBD stent into the duodenum. No opacification of the intrahepatic biliary tree. IMPRESSION: Fistulization of the known fluid collection with the common bile duct. CBD stent appears patent with prompt outflow of injected contrast into the duodenum. No back filling of the intrahepatic biliary tree. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT ABD WANDW/O C INDICATION: ___ year old woman with s/p tace, liver CA, here with infected bile lakes/liver abscess now with diaphoresis, leukocytosis, elevated alk phos // please do MULTIPHASIC CT OF THE LIVER (per ___ request) eval for abscess/collections/bile lakes. TECHNIQUE: Helical CT acquisition was performed during multiple phases after the administration of nonionic IV contrast. Oral contrast was also administered. Multiplanar reformats were obtained. DOSE: 705 mGy*cm. COMPARISON: Multiple priors including fistulogram ___, MRI ___ FINDINGS: Small right pleural effusion with passive atelectasis. Air bronchograms are present within the atelectatic right lower lobe, pneumonia is difficult to exclude. Post insertion of percutaneous pigtail catheter into the largest heterogenous hepatic dome biliary collection. Injected contrast, likely remaining from the prior fistulogram, is present within the collections and communicating bile lakes. Plastic biliary stent is present within the CBD. Multiple other hypodense collections are present, not containing injected contrast, largest 5 x 1.8 cm, prior 5.1 x 2.5 cm. Moderate intrahepatic ductal dilatation is otherwise present. Postoperative changes reflect fibrolamellar HCC resection. There is suspected thrombosis of the peripheral anterior portal venous branches, without well-defined portal veins supplying the superior liver and associated transient perfusion difference. This is slightly more pronounced than prior study, possibly due to technique. Previously demonstrated foci of metastatic disease are less well appreciated, the largest measuring 1.5 x 1 cm (4, 50) within the subcapsular aspect of segment VI. Unremarkable pancreas without main ductal dilatation. Splenomegaly. Normal adrenals. No nephrolithiasis or hydronephrosis. No concerning renal mass. Slightly mottled postcontrast appearance of the renal cortex is noted bilaterally. Ingested material within stomach. Stool and contrast within colon. No small bowel dilation. Normal caliber abdominal aorta. Patent celiac trunk and SMA. Single bilateral renal arteries. 1.2 cm left periaortic lymph node is noted, in addition to 1.2 cm right pericardial lymph node, slightly larger than prior. Probable partially visualized anterior subcutaneous fat injection granuloma. No suspicious osseous lesions. IMPRESSION: 1. The largest bile lake at the hepatic dome contains indwelling pigtail catheter and contrast from recent percutaneous contrast injection. Other smaller bile lakes are present, largest 5 x 1.8 cm within segment VII, slightly decreased in size from prior MRI, possibly due to drainage and or communication with biliary system. Otherwise moderate intrahepatic ductal dilatation appears grossly simple. 2. Previously demonstrated foci of metastatic disease are less conspicuous, likely due to different imaging modality, as the prior examination was performed with MRI. The largest measures 1.5 x 1 cm (4, 50) within the subcapsular aspect of segment VI. 3. Plastic CBD stent appropriately positioned. 4. Heterogenous renal cortical enhancement is again noted, possibly secondary to renal edema or pyelonephritis. 5. Increased conspicuity of enlarged retroperitoneal and pericardial lymph nodes as noted above. Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ year old woman with fibrolamellar Ca s/p TACE.

You were admitted with an infection in the liver and the bloodstream. We treated you with IV antibiotics. You will go home with a picc line to continue those antibiotics. You will need to follow up with the infectious disease clinic to determine the final duration of antibiotic therapy but it will likely be for a total of ___ weeks (including the time you were in the hospital). Start date was ___ (the date of the drain placement) and plan to at least go until ___. While you are on this antibiotic you will need weekly bloodwork (WEEKLY: CBC with differential, BUN, Cr, CPK, LFTs) your doctors ___ help ___ with that. IT IS VERY VERY IMPORTANT YOU KEEP A LOG OF THE DRAIN OUTPUT EVERY DAY. The interventional radiologists will NEED this information to decide when to re-image the area and/or pull the drain out. It is very important you take the senna/colase/dulcolax every day because otherwise the pain meds will cause you to develop severe constipation which will cause abdominal pain and all kinds of other problems that you don't need!! Make sure you call Dr. ___ have an appointment to see her within a week of your discharge. I am sending you home with a prescription for ritalin which you can use for fatigue if you need to. We are also sending you with MS contin which you are currently taking 45mg TID (three times a day) but you can probably go back down to 30mg TID so do this as soon as you feel you are ready. If you find you are very sleepy from pain meds or you are not needing to use the dilaudid that is the time to go down on the MS contin to 30mg three times a day (TID) We are starting a new medicine called ursodiol. THis medication thins the bile and it will hopefully help things drain better. RECORD THE DRAIN OUTPUT EVERY DAY!!! Can't say this enough!! =) Your daptomycin antibiotic should be daily. We have services being set up at home for this for you. You also must take the fluconazole pill in the morning every day to treat the fungal infection. The daptomycin and the fluconazole are treatments for the infection and you will probably need to do them for another 2 weeks though infectious disease will help you decide about this.

Since discharge, he continued to have these symptoms which waxed and waned. He saw his PCP ___ and, at that time, also describes intermittent room spinning sensation and left eyelid drooping (lasting ___ in the AM, subtle L ptosis observed on PCP ___ so an MRI brain +/- and MRA ordered. He did not have any weakness, diplopia, dysarthria, or swallowing difficulties. His MRI showed small vessel ischemic changes and L ICA stenosis. Carotid ultrasound then revealed severe (70-79%) stenosis of the left internal carotid artery. He was then referred to vascular surgery. On the day of presentation, the vascular surgery office called to schedule an appt. During their conversation, pt stated that he felt weak in his left hand and had been dropping things and therefore pt was referred to the ED. At the time of my assessment, pt reports that he has been weak in his left hand for several days, starting after his MRI. He first noticed this when he had difficulty holding onto his fork and dropped his fork while eating. He also had difficulty squeezing his denture cream. He feels these symptoms were sudden in onset and have remained stable since onset. He also has noticed on the day of presentation that his left lower face was drooping but he does not know exactly when this started. Of note, before his MRI, he reports noticing intermittent paresthesias in his left hand which continue. He walks with a cane (over last ___ years) and does not report a change in his gait or recent falls. He also continues to have an intermittent room spinning sensation accompanied by nausea.

Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CTA HEAD AND CTA NECK Q16 CT NECK INDICATION: ___ man with left-sided weakness with known carotid stenosis. Evaluate for infarct, hemorrhage or vascular stenosis. TECHNIQUE: Contiguous MDCT axial images were obtained through the brain without contrast material. Subsequently, helically acquired rapid axial imaging was performed from the aortic arch through the brain during the infusion of 70 mL of Omnipaque intravenous contrast material. Three-dimensional angiographic volume rendered, curved reformatted and segmented images were generated on a dedicated workstation. This report is based on interpretation of all of these images. DOSE: Acquisition sequence: 1) Sequenced Acquisition 6.4 s, 16.0 cm; CTDIvol = 56.1 mGy (Head) DLP = 897.1 mGy-cm. 2) Stationary Acquisition 6.0 s, 0.5 cm; CTDIvol = 130.7 mGy (Head) DLP = 65.3 mGy-cm. 3) Spiral Acquisition 5.2 s, 41.2 cm; CTDIvol = 31.9 mGy (Head) DLP = 1,314.6 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Head) = 2,277 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: ___, outside hospital noncontrast head CT. ___, contrast head MRI and MRA. FINDINGS: CT HEAD WITHOUT CONTRAST: There is no evidence of infarction, hemorrhage, edema, or mass. The ventricles and sulci are normal in size and configuration. Subtle areas of periventricular and subcortical white matter hypodensity are in a configuration most suggestive of chronic small vessel ischemic disease. There is mild to moderate bilateral frontal sinus mucosal thickening, near complete opacification of the bilateral ethmoid air cells and right sphenoid sinus, mild background polypoid mucosal wall thickening of the bilateral maxillary sinuses and left sphenoid sinus, as well as aerosolized fluid in the right maxillary sinus. Periapical lucency is seen surrounding what appears to be a remnant fragment of the left maxillary lateral incisor with erosion of the anterior cortex (___). The mastoid air cells, and middle ear cavities are clear. The visualized portion of the orbits are unremarkable. CTA HEAD: There is variant partial fetal type origin of the left posterior cerebral artery. The left A1 segment of the ACA is hypoplastic with apparent common origin of the bilateral A2 segments are from the right A1, a normal variant. There is trace atherosclerotic calcification at the right ICA terminus without significant narrowing. The vessels of the circle of ___ and their principal intracranial branches otherwise appear patent without significant stenosis, occlusion, or aneurysm formation. The dural venous sinuses are patent. CTA NECK: There is moderate calcified and noncalcified atherosclerotic plaque of the visualized aortic arch. Minimal left vertebral artery origin nonocclusive narrowing is noted (see 650:16). There is mild atherosclerotic calcification at the origin of the left subclavian artery without significant narrowing. There is a 3 vessel aortic arch. There is severe left and mild-to-moderate right calcified and noncalcified atherosclerotic plaque at the carotid bifurcations. This produces 75% stenosis of the left internal carotid artery and 10% stenosis the right internal carotid artery by NASCET criteria. The carotid and vertebral arteries and their major branches are otherwise patent with no evidence of additional stenosis, occlusion, or dissection. OTHER: The visualized portion of the lungs are clear. There is an 8 mm hypodense left lobe thyroid nodule. There is no lymphadenopathy by CT size criteria. There is mild multilevel cervical spondylosis. IMPRESSION: 1. No acute intracranial abnormality. 2. Patent intracranial arterial vasculature without significant stenosis, occlusion, or aneurysm. 3. 75% left and 10% right internal carotid artery stenosis by NASCET criteria. 4. Minimal nonocclusive narrowing of left vertebral artery origin. Otherwise patent cervical arterial vasculature without additional areas of significant stenosis, occlusion, or evidence of dissection. 5. Severe paranasal sinus disease, as described, with areas of aerosolized fluid suggestive of active inflammation. 6. Periapical lucency surrounding what appears to be a residual fragment of the left maxillary lateral incisor, compatible with periodontal disease. Formal dental evaluation is advised. 7. 8 mm hypodense left thyroid lobe nodule. The ___ College of Radiology guidelines suggest that in the absence of risk factors for thyroid cancer, no further evaluation is recommended. RECOMMENDATION(S): 1.

FINDINGS: There is a large right paramediastinal mass abutting the hilum as seen on prior. There is also a pleural-based mass projecting over the right mid to lower lung also seen on prior. New from prior is hazy left mid lung and retrocardiac opacity. Left chest wall pacing device is again noted. IMPRESSION: Known right hilar and right pleural based mass as on prior. Hazy left mid lung and retrocardiac opacity could represent a layering effusion or potentially atelectasis/ consolidation. Consider PA and lateral to further assess. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CTA CHEST WANDW/O CANDRECONS, NON-CORONARY INDICATION: ___ with chest pain, shortness of breath // eval for pneumothorax, pneumonia, PE, increasing lung mass TECHNIQUE: Axial multidetector CT images were obtained through the thorax after the uneventful administration of 100 cc of Omnipaque intravenous contrast. Reformatted coronal, sagittal, thin slice axial images, and oblique maximal intensity projection images were submitted to PACS and reviewed. DOSE: Total DLP (Body) = 397 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: Chest CT from ___. FINDINGS: Aorta and great vessels are unremarkable without dissection or aneurysm. The pulmonary arteries are well opacified to the subsegmental level without filling defect to suggest pulmonary embolism. There is however is significant attenuation of the right-sided pulmonary arterial tree particularly to the right upper lobe. Right middle lobe pulmonary arterial segmental branch is also significantly attenuated by the mass with decreased opacification distally (3:90, 91). Heart size is normal. Coronary artery and aortic root calcifications are noted. Atherosclerotic calcifications are also noted throughout the aorta and great vessels. There is a small pericardial effusion. Large mass centered at the right hilum and paramediastinal region is again noted. It measures approximately 7.5 cm AP x 5.7 cm TRV, previously 7.0 x 4.7 cm when measured in similar ___. Narrowing of the pulmonary arterial branches is as detailed above. There is also narrowing of the right superior pulmonary vein. Peribronchial wall thickening distal to the mass particularly involving the right upper lobe is unchanged. Pleural based/chest wall mass between the anterior right fourth and fifth ribs is again seen measuring 4.4 x 3.5 cm, not significantly changed. The left lung is clear without consolidation, effusion or pneumothorax. Small pulmonary nodule (03:44) in the superior segment of the left lower lobe is unchanged. Patient is status post left upper lobectomy. Finding of increased opacity in the left hemi thorax on same-day chest x-ray was likely technical. Right upper lobe wedge resection changes are also noted. Limited images of the upper abdomen are notable for a partially visualized right adrenal nodule which is unchanged from prior. No suspicious osseous lesions identified. There is no acute fracture. Chronic left lateral rib fractures are noted. IMPRESSION: 1. No pulmonary embolism or acute aortic abnormality. 2. Large right paramediastinal/hilar mass minimally enlarged since exam from ___ with mass effect on adjacent structures as detailed above. Right pleural based/chest wall mass grossly unchanged.

You were admitted after vomiting blood. You were found to have a GI bleed with anemia. In the ICU, you underwent EGD showing bleeding ulcers. These were successfully clipped. After 6 blood transfusions your bleeding stopped. It is very important that you take the twice daily Protonix to prevent bleeding. You were also found to have mild arthritis in your hand, most likely felt to be "Pseudogout." You completed a short course of Prednisone. Please see the medication sheet on discharge. Please note that your Lisinopril dose was decreased to 10mg daily. Please minimize the use of any opiate medications you receive from your physicians as this can cause an increased risk of falls. Oxycodone will only be prescribed by your PCP.

Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report CHEST RADIOGRAPH PERFORMED ON ___ COMPARISON: Prior exam from ___. CLINICAL HISTORY: Worsening falls, question pneumonia. FINDINGS: AP upright and lateral views of the chest were provided. The lungs appear clear without focal consolidation, effusion, or pneumothorax. The cardiomediastinal silhouette is stable and normal. Atherosclerotic calcifications are seen along the thoracic aorta. Chronic deformity at the left humeral head is not significantly changed. An old injury of the left distal clavicle is also stable. No acute bony injuries are seen. IMPRESSION: No acute intrathoracic process. Radiology Report INDICATION: Three falls with head strike within the last week. Evaluate for bleed. COMPARISON: CT head, ___. TECHNIQUE: Axial MDCT images were obtained through the brain without IV contrast. Multiplanar coronal, sagittal, and thin section bone algorithm reconstructed images were generated. FINDINGS: There is an acute left cerebral subdural hemorrhage, layering along the left tentorium and to a lesser extent extending along the superior falx (2:11, 10, 17) with a small infratentorial component maximally measuring 8mm (2:9). No other focus of hemorrhage is detected. There is no evidence of herniation, edema, mass effect or large territorial infarction. The ventricles and sulci are prominent, compatible with age-related atrophy. Periventricular and subcortical white matter hypodensities are nonspecific, but can be seen in the setting of chronic microvascular ischemic disease. The basal cisterns are patent and there is preservation of gray-white differentiation. No fracture is detected. There is a left supraorbital hematoma (3:6). The partially visualized paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells and middle ear cavities are clear. The globes are grossly intact. IMPRESSION: 1. Acute left subdural hematoma as detailed above. No signs of herniation. 2. Large left supraorbital hematoma. Radiology Report INDICATION: Three falls with head strike within the last week. Evaluate for bleed. COMPARISON: Recent CT C-spine ___ and ___ TECHNIQUE: Contiguous helical MDCT images were obtained from the skull base through the T2 level without IV contrast. Multiplanar axial, coronal, sagittal and thin section bone algorithm reconstructed images were generated. TOTAL BODY DLP: 680.05 mGy-cm. FINDINGS: There is no evidence of acute traumatic fracture or dislocation. Overall, there is no appreciable change from the study 10 days prior. The atlantodental interval is preserved. The dens are normally positioned between the lateral masses of C1. Increased sclerosis at the inferior enplate of T1 (602b:24) is unchanged since ___ but new since ___ and may represent compression. Overall alignment is preserved. There are moderate degenerative changes with anterior and posterior osteophytes. Disc osteophyte complexes cause mild central canal narrowing at C4-C5 and C5-C6. Uncovertebral and facet joint arthropathy cause mild neural foraminal narrowing at several vertebral levels. There is no prevertebral or paravertebral soft tissue abnormality. The thyroid shows an 8 mm hypodense nodule. The included lung apices are clear. IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of acute traumatic injury. 2. No significant change from the study 10 days prior with degenerative changes as above. 2.

IMPRESSION: NG tube tip is within the stomach. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CHEST (PORTABLE AP) INDICATION: s/p NGT placement// NGT in good position? IMPRESSION: In comparison with the study of ___, the nasogastric tube has been advanced so that the tip extends at least to the midportion of the stomach. Streaks of atelectasis are seen in the mid and lower zones, but no evidence of acute pneumonia or vascular congestion. Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ year old woman with displaced NGT// Evaluate for proper dobhoff placement TECHNIQUE: AP portable chest radiograph COMPARISON: ___ from earlier in the day FINDINGS: The enteric tube has been removed. The tip of the right PICC line projects over the cavoatrial junction. Atelectasis noted in the left midlung and left lung base. No pneumothorax or large pleural effusion. The size of the cardiac silhouette is enlarged but unchanged. IMPRESSION: Interval removal of the enteric tube. Otherwise no significant interval change. Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ year old woman with dobhoff displaced// Please evaluate for dobhoff placement TECHNIQUE: AP portable chest radiographs COMPARISON: ___ from earlier in the day FINDINGS: Sequential images demonstrate advancement of a Dobhoff into the stomach. The tip of the right PICC line projects over the cavoatrial junction. Atelectasis is noted within the left midlung zone and left lung base. There is no pleural effusion or pneumothorax identified. The size of the cardiac silhouette is unchanged. IMPRESSION: Sequential images demonstrate advancement of a Dobhoff into the stomach. Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ year old woman with c difficile now with abdominal pain. Evaluate for obstruction, perforation. TECHNIQUE: Portable supine abdominal radiograph was obtained. COMPARISON: Abdominal ultrasound ___. FINDINGS: Limited abdominal radiograph due to portable technique and body habitus. Nonspecific bowel gas pattern. Arteriovascular calcifications. No acute osseus abnormality. Osteopenia. IMPRESSION: Limited study. Nonspecific bowel gas pattern. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: DX PELVIS AND HIP UNILATERAL INDICATION: ___ year old woman with R hip pain.// Fracture? COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: Assessment of fine bony detail is limited by background osteopenia and overlying soft tissues, with underpenetration. Allowing for this, no lucent or sclerotic fracture line or displaced fracture fragment is detected in the right proximal femur or about the right hip. There is intracortical tunneling in the proximal femur consistent with osteoporosis. There is mild degenerative change of the right hip joint, with mild joint space narrowing and marginal spurring. Assessment of the left hip is quite limited on this single AP view,, but shows similar mild degenerative change. The pelvic girdle remains grossly congruent, with degenerative changes of both SI joints. Extensive vascular calcifications noted. IMPRESSION: No obvious fracture detected involving the right hip. However, given the degree of osteoporosis, if there is high clinical suspicion for nondisplaced fracture, then MRI or CT could help for further assessment Mild right and left hip degenerative changes and degenerative changes of both SI joints. Dense vascular calcification. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST Q111 CT HEAD INDICATION: ___ year old woman s/p bilateral subdural hematomas now change in level of consciousness.

Dear Ms ___, It was a pleasure caring for you at ___. WHY WAS I IN THE HOSPITAL? - You were admitted because you were confused, feeling fatigued and you also had difficulties remembering words. Your blood pressures were also very high. WHAT HAPPENED TO ME IN THE HOSPITAL? - We took some imaging of your head which did not show any active bleeding or acute stroke. However, there were some changes in your brain's small blood vessels which we suspect are due to your high blood pressure. This could explain why you have been confused lately. - We also did some lab tests to check for infection but we did not find any infection. - One of your vitamins called B12 was low so we gave you 2 injections to help bring your levels up. Sometimes when B12 is low, it can make people feel confused. - We also did another test to check your brain activity. This test showed that you were not having a seizure. - Your blood pressure was also very high so we increased your medications. WHAT SHOULD I DO AFTER I LEAVE THE HOSPITAL? - Continue to take all your medicines and keep your appointments as scheduled below. - Follow-up with your primary care doctor after discharge from acute rehab. - Follow-up with the cognitive neurology team as scheduled below. We wish you the best! Sincerely, Your ___ Team

IMPRESSION: In comparison with the study of ___, there continued low lung volumes. There is increasing opacification at both bases, most likely reflecting atelectatic change. In the appropriate clinical setting, superimposed pneumonia would have to be considered. The Port-A-Cath extends to the level of the cavoatrial junction. There is prominent dilatation of gas-filled loops of bowel within the visualized portion of the abdomen. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: BILAT LOWER EXT VEINS INDICATION: ___ year old woman with met cancer tachycardic, // dvt? TECHNIQUE: Grey scale, color, and spectral Doppler evaluation was performed on the bilateral lower extremity veins. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: Left: There is normal compressibility, flow and augmentation of the left common femoral, and popliteal veins. Compression of the superficial femoral vein was difficult to achieve due to surrounding soft tissue edema, however walls wall flow was demonstrated in the superficial femoral vein. Normal color flow and compressibility are demonstrated in the posterior tibial and peroneal veins. Right: There is normal flow, compressibility and augmentation of the right common femoral, superficial femoral popliteal veins. Normal color flow and compressibility are demonstrated in the posterior tibial veins. The peroneal veins are not well visualized. There is normal respiratory variation in the common femoral veins bilaterally. No evidence of medial popliteal fossa (___) cyst. IMPRESSION: No evidence of deep venous thrombosis in the bilateral lower extremity veins. The right peroneal veins were not visualized. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CTA CHEST WANDW/O CANDRECONS, NON-CORONARY INDICATION: Metastatic leiomyosarcoma with tachycardia. Rule out pulmonary embolus. TECHNIQUE: Multidetector CT through the chest performed with 100 ml of IV contrast. Coronal and sagittal reformations were provided and reviewed. Oblique maximum intensity projection images were created and reviewed as well. DOSE: 254.80 mGy-cm COMPARISON: Chest CT ___. FINDINGS: Contrast opacifies the segmental and subsegmental vessels of the pulmonary arterial tree, without filling defects to indicate a pulmonary embolus. The aorta and main pulmonary artery are normal caliber. The heart is normal size and there is no pericardial effusion. A right-sided MediPort courses into the right atrium. The trachea is normal caliber. The airways are patent through the subsegmental level. There is a new small left pleural effusion from ___. Bibasilar atelectasis is worse from that time as well. Atelectasis in the superior segment of the right lower lobe is unchanged. There are multiple metastases seen throughout both lungs which are unchanged from ___. Hypoenhancement of these masses is likely related to the timing of contrast. There is no evidence for active infection. A 6 mm hypodensity in the left thyroid lobe is unchanged. There is no supraclavicular, axillary or central lymphadenopathy. The esophagus is unremarkable. Limited views of the spleen are unremarkable. Hypoattenuation of the liver is compatible with fatty infiltration. Again, a dilated loop of small bowel is seen in the left upper quadrant. The gastrostomy tube appears to be well-positioned. There are no lytic or blastic osseous lesions. A healing left tenth rib fractures again noted (5:121). IMPRESSION: 1. No pulmonary embolus. 2. New, small left pleural effusion with an increase in bibasilar atelectasis from 8 days prior. 3. Partially image dilated loops of small bowel, similar to prior. 4. Unchanged, intrathoracic metastatic disease. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: Supine and upright abdominal plain film INDICATION: ___ with malignant SBO is setting of uterine leiomyosarcoma s/p open small bowel bypass w/ ileocolic anastomosis // Eval SBO COMPARISON: Comparison to prior study dated ___ FINDINGS: Air is seen in mildly dilated loops of small bowel with multiple air fluid levels on the upright study and a relative paucity of gas within the colon. These findings could represent postoperative ileus although partial small bowel obstruction should be considered. Clips in the right upper quadrant are consistent with prior cholecystectomy. No free air is seen. Lung bases are incompletely visualized. A gastrostomy tube projects over the expected location of the stomach. IMPRESSION: Multiple loops of dilated bowel with air-fluid levels. Findings favor partial small bowel obstruction rather than postoperative ileus given the paucity of gas within the colon. Clinical correlation is advised and followup imaging should be based on the clinical assessment.

FINDINGS: Lung volumes are low. In the left lower lobe is an opacity obscuring the heart apex and left hemidiaphragm with air bronchograms, likely reflecting left lower lobe pneumonia. Prominence of the bilateral central pulmonary vasculature suggest mild interstitial pulmonary edema. There is likely also a small left pleural effusion. No evidence of pneumothorax. IMPRESSION: 1. Dense opacity in the left lower lung field suggests left lower lobe pneumonia/atelectasis. 2. Mild bilateral pulmonary vascular congestion. 3. Left pleural effusion. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: RENAL U.S. INDICATION: History: ___ with history of HTN, bipolar disorder, here with abdominal pain and likely UTI septic from this on this presentation// please evaluate for hydro ___ nephric stranding TECHNIQUE: Grey scale and color Doppler ultrasound images of the kidneys were obtained. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: Right kidney: 9.6 cm. Re-demonstrated in the mid to lower pole of the right kidney is an anechoic 2.7 x 2.5 x 2.9 cm simple cyst. Left kidney: 15.4 cm. Multiple stones are re-demonstrated within the left kidney, measuring up to 1.3 cm in the left lower pole. There is moderate left-sided hydronephrosis and proximal hydroureter. A 6 mm nonobstructing calculus is noted within the dilated left renal pelvis. There are additional shadowing echogenic foci in the dilated left renal mid and lower pole calices that are nonobstructing. The urinary bladder is distended with urine however neither ureteral jets are identified. IMPRESSION: 1. Moderate left hydronephrosis and proximal hydroureter. A 6 mm nonobstructing calculus is seen within the dilated left renal pelvis. Additional nonobstructing left renal lower pole calculi also noted. Exact etiology for obstruction not seen on the scan and it is likely that there is a distal ureteric obstructing calculus which could be further evaluated by a noncontrast CT of the abdomen. 2. 2.8 cm simple cyst within the lower pole of the right kidney. No right-sided hydronephrosis or calculi noted. Radiology Report INDICATION: NO_PO contrast; History: ___ with DMII, HTN, and new pyelonephritis with obstructing stones NO_PO contrast// please evaluate for other obstructing stones TECHNIQUE: Multidetector CT images of the abdomen and pelvis were acquired without intravenous contrast. Non-contrast scan has several limitations in detecting vascular and parenchymal organ abnormalities, including tumor detection. Oral contrast was not administered. Coronal and sagittal reformations were performed and reviewed on PACS. DOSE: Acquisition sequence: 1) Spiral Acquisition 3.9 s, 51.7 cm; CTDIvol = 14.7 mGy (Body) DLP = 757.3 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Body) = 757 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: Same day ___ renal ultrasound, ___ CTU. FINDINGS: Optimal evaluation of organ pathology and vasculature is limited without the benefit of intravenous contrast. LOWER CHEST: Atelectasis of the dependent left lung base. Small left pleural effusion. ABDOMEN: HEPATOBILIARY: The liver demonstrates homogeneous attenuation throughout. There is no evidence of focal lesions within the limitations of an unenhanced scan. There is no evidence of intrahepatic or extrahepatic biliary dilatation. The gallbladder is distended with no radiopaque calculi within it. PANCREAS: Extensive pancreatic calcifications and stably dilated main pancreatic duct measuring 13 mm are consistent with chronic pancreatitis. SPLEEN: The spleen shows normal size and attenuation throughout, without evidence of focal lesions. ADRENALS: 1.8 x 1.1 cm right adrenal nodule (02:29) is unchanged dating back to ___. URINARY: Right kidney: There is a simple 0.3 cm right renal cyst. No hydronephrosis seen on the right side. Faint cortical calcification within the right kidney associated with a scar (601:24) is as before. No renal calculi seen on the right side.

Dr. ___ personally supervised the trainee during any key components of the procedure where applicable and reviewed and agrees with the findings as reported below. ANESTHESIA: Anesthesia was provided by the general anesthesia team. MEDICATIONS: CONTRAST: 3 ml of Optiray contrast FLUOROSCOPY TIME AND DOSE: 6.3 minutes, 42 mGy PROCEDURE: 1. Left ultrasound guided renal collecting system access. 2. Left nephrostogram. 3. 8 ___ nephrostomy tube placement. PROCEDURE DETAILS: Following the discussion of the risks, benefits and alternatives to the procedure, written informed consent was obtained from the health care proxy. The patient was then brought to the angiography suite and placed prone on the exam table. A pre-procedure time-out was performed per ___ protocol. The left flank was prepped and draped in the usual sterile fashion. After the injection of 5 cc of 1% lidocaine in the subcutaneous soft tissues, the left renal collecting system was accessed through a posterior lower pole calyx under ultrasound guidance using a 21 gauge Cook needle. Ultrasound images of the access were stored on PACS. Prompt return of urine confirmed appropriate positioning. Injection of a small amount of contrast outlined a dilated renal collecting system. Under fluoroscopic guidance, a Nitinol wire was advanced into the renal collecting system. After a skin ___, the needle was exchanged for an Accustick sheath. One the tip of the sheath was in the collecting system; the sheath was advanced over the wire, inner dilator and metallic stiffener. The wire and inner dilator were then removed and diluted contrast was injected into the collecting system to confirm position. A ___ wire was advanced through the sheath and coiled in the collecting system. The sheath was then removed and a 8 ___ nephrostomy tube was advanced into the renal collecting system. The wire was then removed and the pigtail was formed in the collecting system. Contrast injection confirmed appropriate positioning. The catheter was then flushed, 0 silk stay sutures applied and the catheter was secured with a Stat Lock device and sterile dressings. The catheter was attached to a bag. FINDINGS: Initial contrast injection demonstrated moderate hydronephrosis of the inferior moiety collecting system.

You were admitted to ___ with an irregular heart rhythm called atrial fibrillation. Your heart was going very fast and we had to give you medications to slow it down. Your heart broke out of this rhythm by itself, but it began to beat too slowly and you became very symptomatic. This resolved. You were started on a new medication called amiodarone to keep your heart in a regular rhythm. This interacts with warfarin so you will have to take a lower dose of warfarin while you are on this medication. You will continue on a very low dose of metoprolol to prevent your heart from going too fast if you go into atrial fibillation. You will go home on a monitor for your heart rhythm. You will follow up with Dr. ___ in 1 month to see how your heart rhythm is doing. Please take your medicaitons as listed below. Please follow up with your doctors as listed below. It was a pleasure taking care of you and we wish you a speedy recovery!

Dear Mr. ___, You were admitted to the hospital for fever. You were treated with antibiotics, and your fevers resolved. While the cultures are still pending, there currently is no evidence of infection in your blood, your urine, or your lungs. Some of your liver enzymes (bilirubin and alkaline phosphatase) were elevated, so we did an ultrasound which showed gallstones, but no infection. We also did an MRCP to see whether there was a blockage in your liver causing the elevated enzymes, which showed no signs of intervenable bile duct obstruction. We consulted our liver specialists, who thought that the increased enzymes were likely due to your cancer and invasive procedures would be unlikely to solve the problem. No changes to your home medications were made. It was a pleasure taking care of you during your hospitalization. We wish you all the best going forward.

Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ year old woman with massive variceal bleed, hematemesis // TIPS to be placed COMPARISON: None available TECHNIQUE: OPERATORS: Dr. ___, Interventional Radiology Fellow and Dr. ___, attending radiologist performed the procedure. Dr. ___ ___ personally supervised the trainee during the key components of the procedure and has reviewed and agrees with the trainee's findings. ANESTHESIA: General anesthesia was administered by the anesthesia department. MEDICATIONS: Please see anesthesia notes. Clindamycin 600 mg CONTRAST: 85 ml of Optiray contrast. FLUOROSCOPY TIME AND DOSE: 28.5 min, 904 mGy PROCEDURE: 1. Paracentesis in the right upper quadrant with placement of a 5 ___ flush catheter. 2. Right internal jugular venous access using ultrasound. 3. Pre-procedure right atrial, right hepatic balloon-occluded and portal vein pressure measurements. 4. CO2 portal venogram in AP and lateral projections. 5. Contrast enhanced portal venogram. 6. Placement of a 10 mm x 8 cm x 2 cm Viatorr covered stent. 7. Post-stenting balloon angioplasty of the TIPS shunt with a 10 mm balloon. 8. Post-stenting portal venogram. PROCEDURE DETAILS: Following the discussion of the risks, benefits and alternatives to the procedure, written informed consent was obtained from the healthcare proxy. The patient was then brought to the angiography suite and placed supine on the exam table. A pre-procedure time-out was performed per ___ protocol. The neck and abdomen was prepped and draped in the usual sterile fashion. Under ultrasound guidance a 19 gauge needle was inserted into the right upper quadrant peritoneum until there was flow of ascites fluid through the needle. A ___ wire was advanced through the needle and coiled in the right upper quadrant. Under fluoroscopic guidance, a 5 ___ straight flush catheter was advanced over the ___ wire and left in the perihepatic space. The catheter was then attached to tubing and 3.5 L of straw-colored ascites was drained. Under continuous ultrasound guidance, the patent right internal jugular vein was compressible and accessed using a micropuncture needle. Images of ultrasound access were stored on PACS. Subsequently a Nitinol wire was passed into the right atrium using fluoroscopic guidance. A small incision was made at the needle entry site. The needle was exchanged for a micropuncture sheath. The Nitinol wire was removed and a ___ wire was advanced distally into the IVC. The micropuncture sheath was then removed and a 9 ___ sheath was advanced over the wire into the inferior vena cava. Using a MPA and a angled glide, access was obtained in the right hepatic vein. Appropriate position was confirmed with contrast injection and fluoroscopy in AP and lateral views. Then a occlusion balloon was advanced over the wire into the distal right hepatic vein. The wire was then removed and portal pressure measurements were obtained after balloon occlusion. The pressure measurements were obtained through the sheath to obtain free hepatic vein pressures. A CO2 portal venogram was performed in the AP and lateral projections. Following procedural planning, the Amplatz wire and occlusion balloon were removed and the TIPS metal cannula was advanced through the sheath. Once the sheath was placed in an appropriate position, the cannula device was inserted over the Amplatz wire and the wire was exchanged for ___ needle. The angled sheath was turned anteriorly. The needle was then advanced through liver parenchyma and the needle was withdrawn over its sheath. The TIPS sheath was withdrawn while gentle suction was applied. Upon blood return, a Glidewire was introduced into the catheter to attempt to pass into the portal vein. The angled Glidewire was unable to be passed into the main portal vein and therefore was exchanged for a headliner micro wire. The headliner microwire was passed into the main portal vein. A micro catheter (renegade ___) was advanced over the headliner into the main portal vein. The headliner wire was exchanged for V18 micro wire. The micro catheter was then removed and a 4 ___ C2 glide catheter was advanced over the V18 into the splenic vein. The micro wire was exchanged for an Amplatz wire and extended into the splenic vein. Attempts to pass a straight flush catheter was unsuccessful through the liver parenchymal tract. Therefore a 6 mm mustang balloon was advanced over the Amplatz wire and pre dilation of the liver tract was performed. Subsequently the straight flush catheter was advanced over the wire and a contrast enhanced portal venogram was performed. Next direct portal pressure measurements and right atrial pressure measurements were obtained. An Amplatz wire was advanced through the straight flush catheter into the splenic vein. The catheter was removed and a 10 mm x 8 cm x 2 cm Viatorr covered stent was advanced into appropriate position and deployed. Following stent deployment, the stent was dilated using a 10 mm balloon. The straight flush catheter was advanced over the wire and the wire was removed. Repeat portal and right atrial pressure measurements were performed. The sheath was then removed from the right internal jugular vein site and pressure held for 10 minutes to achieve hemostasis. Steri-strips and sterile dressings were applied. The patient tolerated the procedure well. There were no immediate post-procedure complications. The patient was transferred to the PACU in stable condition. FINDINGS: 1. Pre-TIPS right atrial pressure of 40 and balloon-occluded portal pressure measurement of 19 resulting in portosystemic gradient of 21 mmHg. 2. CO2 portal venogram showing normal portal venous anatomy with a favorable trajectory from the right hepatic vein to the right portal vein. 3. Contrast enhanced portal venogram showing hepatofugal flow towards the splenic vein. Enlarged coronary vein with retrograde flow into the gastroesophageal varices. 4. Post-TIPS portal venogram showing restoration of hepatopetal flow with brisk flow through the TIPS shunt into the right atrium. No filling of the esophageal varices is identified. 5. Post-TIPS right atrial pressure of 30 and portal pressure of 19 resulting in portosystemic gradient of 11 mmHg. 6. 3.5 L of straw-colored ascites removed through a peritoneal drain. Sample sent for culture. IMPRESSION: 1. Successful right internal jugular access with transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt placement with decrease in porto-systemic pressure gradient from 21 to 11 mm Hg. 2. 3.5 liters of ascites drained.

Dear Ms. ___, It was a pleasure taking care of you during your hospitalization at the ___. You were admitted with a bleed from your esophagus. This bleed was caused by something called varices, which are caused by the high blood vessel pressures that develop when you have liver cirrhosis. You underwent a procedure called transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt, called a TIPS, and this helps lower the pressure within those blood vessels. We cannot stress to you how important it is that you never consume alcohol again. This will lead to worsening of liver disease, increase in the pressures discussed above, and inevitably, death. It is also important that you consume a low sodium diet. Please do not add salt to your food and read the labels of the foods you buy. You should be wary of eating out in restaurants, and always inform them you require low sodium. Please continue to have high protein shakes at least 3 times a day, this includes ensure or carnation breakfast shakes. You also had ear pain while you were hospitalized, likely caused by an ear infection. If this pain does not improve in 2 days, or gets worse, please contact your PCP ___. Your nutritional status is extremely important. Please drink AT LEAST 3 Ensures or 3 carnation instant breakfast supplements daily, with a goal of 6. These should be taken in addition to your regular meals. You should re-evaluate your need for a feeding tube to help with your nutrition at your next liver appointment. If you develop confusion, fevers, chills, worsening fluid in your abdomen or legs, vomiting of blood or black stools, please seek medical attention. We wish you the ___ of luck in your health. Sincerely, Your ___ Care Team

Found small piece of bone upon exploration. ? from patella or from other source. // Eval for open joint fracture TECHNIQUE: Axial CT images of the right knee were obtained without intravenous contrast. Coronal and sagittal reformats were generated. DOSE: Acquisition sequence: 1) Spiral Acquisition 11.5 s, 24.5 cm; CTDIvol = 20.2 mGy (Body) DLP = 494.4 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Body) = 494 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: None available FINDINGS: There is a comminuted nondisplaced impaction fracture of the lateral femoral condyle anterolaterally. Intra-articular extension is appreciated. There is a comminuted minimally displaced intra-articular fracture of the lateral tibial plateau posteriorly without significant depression. The fracture line extends into the lateral tibial spine. No patellar fracture is identified. There is a small lipohemarthrosis with locules of air within the joint. Laceration is seen just superior to the patella within the subcutaneous tissues. Soft tissue swelling is noted anteriorly. IMPRESSION: 1. Comminuted nondisplaced impaction fracture of the lateral femoral condyle. 2. Comminuted intra-articular nondepressed fracture of the lateral tibial plateau posteriorly. Should there be concern for ligamentous injury, MRI can be performed. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT T-SPINE W/O CONTRAST Q321 CT SPINE INDICATION: ___ year old man with neck pain s/p MCC w/ numbness // eval for vert fracture eval for vert fracture TECHNIQUE: Non-contrast helical multidetector CT was performed. Soft tissue and bone algorithm images were generated. Coronal and sagittal reformations were then constructed. DOSE: Acquisition sequence: 1) Spiral Acquisition 12.3 s, 48.1 cm; CTDIvol = 32.7 mGy (Body) DLP = 1,572.6 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Body) = 1,573 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: CT abdomen and pelvis: ___. FINDINGS: Alignment is normal. No fractures are identified. There is no evidence of critical spinal canal or neural foraminal stenosis. There is no prevertebral soft tissue swelling. There is no evidence of infection or neoplasm. Mild, multilevel degenerative changes are noted throughout the thoracic spine, including anterior posterior osteophytosis. The imaged portion of the lungs and retroperitoneum is unremarkable. IMPRESSION: No evidence of thoracic spine fracture or traumatic malalignment. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: MRI CERVICAL, THORACIC, AND LUMBAR INDICATION: ___ year old man with numbness in ___ like distribution of upper chest and shoulders status post motorcycle accident// eval for spinal cord injury, hematoma, central cord syndrome TECHNIQUE: Sagittal T2, sagittal STIR, and sagittal T1 weighted sequences of the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine were obtained. The examination was prematurely terminated at the patient's request due to claustrophobia. COMPARISON: CT thoracic spine ___ CT abdomen and pelvis ___ CT cervical spine ___ FINDINGS: CERVICAL: The alignment of the cervical spine is normal. The bone marrow is normal without evidence of edema or fractures. The height of the vertebral bodies are maintained. The spinal cord is normal in signal and caliber. No fluid collections or masses are identified. There is minimal edema anterior to the C3, C4, and C5 vertebral bodies. There is no spinal canal stenosis. THORACIC: The alignment of the thoracic spine is normal. There is linear T1 hypointense and T2/STIR hyperintense signal along the superior endplate of the T6 vertebral body. There is no marrow edema in the posterior elements. A T1/T2 hyperintense and heterogeneously STIR hyperintense lesion in the T11 vertebral body, measuring 1.4 cm, likely represents an intraosseous hemangioma. The vertebral bodies are maintained in height. Schmorl's nodes are scattered throughout the thoracic spine. The spinal cord is normal in signal and caliber. No fluid collections or masses are identified. LUMBAR: The alignment of the lumbar spine is normal. There is T1 hypointense and T2/STIR hyperintense signal along the right posterior and superior endplate of the L5 vertebral body and minimal T1 hypointense and T2/STIR hyperintense signal along the right inferior endplate of the L4 vertebral body. The height of the vertebral bodies are maintained. The conus medullaris terminates at T12-L1. The spinal cord is normal in signal. No fluid collections or masses are identified. At T12-L1 through L3-L4, there is no spinal canal or neural foraminal stenosis. At L4-L5, disc bulge and facet joint hypertrophy cause mild-to-moderate left neural foraminal stenosis. At L5-S1, bulge causes mild bilateral neural foraminal stenosis, right greater than left. IMPRESSION: 1. Incomplete examination due to lack patient cooperation. 2. Acute, nondisplaced fracture through the superior endplate of the T6 vertebral body. 3. Minimal prevertebral edema anterior to the C3, C4, and C5 vertebral bodies, suggestive of anterior longitudinal ligamentous sprain. 4. Edema of the L4-L5 endplates likely represent degenerative changes rather than traumatic injury. 5. No epidural fluid collections. 6. Normal signal and caliber of the spinal cord. 7. Mild degenerative changes of the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine without evidence of spinal canal or neural foraminal stenosis.

You have undergone surgery to have your gallbladder removed. Stones from your gallbladder were blocking the main duct from your pancreas and causing pancreatitis, a potentially dangerous condition. ACTIVITY: Do not drive until you have stopped taking pain medicine and feel you could respond in an emergency. You may climb stairs. You may go outside, but avoid traveling long distances until you see your surgeon at your next visit. Don't lift more than ___ lbs for 6 weeks. (This is about the weight of a briefcase or a bag of groceries.) This applies to lifting children, but they may sit on your lap.) You may start some light exercise when you feel comfortable. You will need to stay out of bathtubs or swimming pools for a time while your incision is healing. Ask your doctor when you can resume tub baths or swimming. Heavy exercise may be started after 6 weeks, but use common sense and go slowly at first. You may resume sexual activity unless your doctor has told you otherwise. HOW YOU MAY FEEL: You may feel weak or "washed out" for 6 weeks. You might want to nap often. Simple tasks may exhaust you. You may have a sore throat because of a tube that was in your throat during surgery. You might have trouble concentrating or difficulty sleeping. You might feel somewhat depressed. You could have a poor appetite for a while. Food may seem unappealing. All of these feelings and reactions are normal and should go away in a short time. If they do not, tell your surgeon. YOUR INCISION: Your incision may be slightly red around the stitches. This is normal. You may gently wash away dried material around your incision. Do not remove steri-strips for 2 weeks. (These are the thin paper strips that might be on your incision.) But if they fall off before that that's okay). It is normal to feel a firm ridge along the incision. This will go away. Avoid direct sun exposure to the incision area. Do not use any ointments on the incision unless you were told otherwise. You may see a small amount of clear or light red fluid staining your dressing or clothes. If the staining is severe, please call your surgeon. You may shower. As noted above, ask your doctor when you may resume tub baths or swimming. Ove the next ___ months, your incision will fade and become less prominent. YOUR BOWELS: Constipation is a common side effect of narcotic pain medication. If needed, you may take a stool softener (such as Colace, one capsule) or gentle laxative (such as milk of magnesia, 1 tbs) twice a day. You can get both of these medicines without a prescription. PAIN MANAGEMENT: It is normal to feel some discomfort/pain following abdominal surgery. This pain is often described as "soreness". Your pain should get better day by day. If you find the pain is getting worse instead of better, please contact your surgeon. You will receive a prescription from your surgeon for pain medicine to take by mouth. It is important to take this medicine as directied. Do not take it more frequently than prescribed. Do not take more medicine at one time than prescribed. Your pain medicine will work better if you take it before your pain gets too severe. Talk with your surgeon about how long you will need to take prescription pain medicine. Please don't take any other pain medicine, including non-prescription pain medicine, unless your surgeon has said its okay. If you are experiencing no pain, it is okay to skip a dose of pain medicine. Remember to use your "cough pillow" for splinting when you cough or when you are doing your deep breathing exercises. If you experience any of the folloiwng, please contact your surgeon: - sharp pain or any severe pain that lasts several hours - pain that is getting worse over time - pain accompanied by fever of more than 101 - a drastic change in nature or quality of your pain MEDICATIONS: Take all the medicines you were on before the operation just as you did before, unless you have been told differently. If you have any questions about what medicine to take or not to take, please call your surgeon. DANGER SIGNS: Please call your surgeon if you develop: - worsening abdominal pain - sharp or severe pain that lasts several hours - temperature of 101 degrees or higher - severe diarrhea - vomiting - redness around the incision that is spreading - increased swelling around the incision - excessive bruising around the incision - cloudy fluid coming from the wound - bright red blood or foul smelling discharge coming from the wound - an increase in drainage from the wound

Radiology Report EXAMINATION: LUMBAR PUNCTURE (W/ FLUORO) N8 RF SPINE INDICATION: ___ year old man with Graves, HTN, mild cognitive impairment p/w c/f HSV encephalitis. Family requesting single attempt and bedside would be very difficult.// Would very much appreciate LP TECHNIQUE: After informed consent was obtained from the patient explaining the risks, benefits, and alternatives to the procedure, the patient was laid in prone position on the fluoroscopic table. A pre-procedure time-out was performed confirming the patient's identity, relevant history, procedure to be performed and labs. Puncture was performed at L4-5. Approximately 5 cc of 1% lidocaine was administered for local anesthesia. Under fluoroscopic guidance, a 20 gauge, 3.5 inch spinal needle was inserted into the thecal sac. There was good return of clear CSF. 14 mls of CSF were collected in 4 tubes and sent for requested analysis. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: 14 mls of CSF were collected in 4 tubes. The patient tolerated the procedure well. Upon completion of the procedure a small 2 x 3 cm hematoma at the site of the puncture was identified. Appropriate hemostasis was achieved with manual compression for 5 minutes. The site of the hematoma was supple and without evidence of hematoma reaccumulation. The extent of the hematoma was marked and a compression dressing was applied. IMPRESSION: 1. Successful lumbar puncture at L4-5 without complication. 2.

Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CHEST (PORTABLE AP) INDICATION: ___ year old man p/w facial rash and AMS.// Please eval for PNA COMPARISON: None FINDINGS: AP portable semi upright view of the chest. Patient's chin obscures the superior mediastinum and portions of the lung apices. Lung volumes are low. Allowing for limitations, the lungs appear clear. The heart appears mildly enlarged. No large effusion or definite pneumothorax. No signs of congestion or edema. Bony structures are intact IMPRESSION: No signs of pneumonia on this limited exam. Cardiomegaly. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: MR HEAD W AND W/O CONTRAST T___ MR HEAD INDICATION: ___ year old man with Graves, HTN, mild cog impairment p/w facial rash (? VZV), headaches, and encephalopathy.// Please evaluate for evidence of encephalitis. TECHNIQUE: Sagittal and axial T1 weighted imaging were performed. After administration of intravenous contrast, axial imaging was performed with gradient echo, FLAIR, diffusion, and T1 technique. Sagittal MPRAGE imaging was performed and re-formatted in axial and coronal orientations. COMPARISON: CT head from ___ and ___. CTA of the head and neck from ___. FINDINGS: There is no evidence of hemorrhage, edema, masses, mass effect, midline shift or infarction. There is a tiny punctate focus of susceptibility artifact in the left inferior cerebellar hemisphere (series 6, image 2) which may be artifactual or represent a tiny microhemorrhage. There are extensive confluent periventricular T2/FLAIR hyperintensities in the cerebral hemispheres bilaterally and in the pons, nonspecific but suggestive of extensive chronic small vessel ischemic changes. There is a tiny old lacunar infarct in the left anterior corona radiata. There is abnormal enhancement of the left trigeminal nerve within Meckel's cave (series 1001, image 74), which may be reflective of clinical history herpes zoster. Correlation with affected side is recommended. There is also minimal dural thickening enhancement within the internal auditory canals, nonspecific, and could be reflective of recent lumbar puncture and intracranial hypotension. There is no other abnormal enhancement after contrast administration. There is diffuse generalized parenchymal volume loss, most likely age related. Prominence of the ventricular system and extra-axial CSF spaces is unchanged and consistent with the previously mentioned parenchymal volume loss. Major vascular flow voids appear preserved. Major dural venous sinuses are patent. There is mild mucosal thickening in the left frontal sinus and along the ethmoid air cells with a small mucosal retention cyst in the left maxillary sinus. The mastoid air cells appear clear. Note is made of bilateral lens replacement surgery. The orbits appear otherwise unremarkable. IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of acute infarction, hemorrhage or intracranial mass. There is mild enhancement of the left trigeminal nerve within Meckel's cave, potentially reflective of herpes zoster. There is also suggestion of mild nonspecific dural thickening along the internal auditory canals, potentially representative of lumbar puncture sequela, although infectious process not entirely excluded. No other abnormal intracranial enhancement. 2. Extensive white matter changes in the cerebral hemispheres bilaterally and in the pons, likely sequela of chronic small vessel ischemic changes. Small punctate infarct in the left anterior corona radiata. 3. Additional findings described above. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CTA HEAD AND CTA NECK Q16 CT NECK INDICATION: ___ year old man with likely herpes encephalitis, new seizure activity// pls eval for new intracranial pathology, stroke TECHNIQUE: Contiguous MDCT axial images were obtained through the brain without contrast material. Subsequently, helically acquired rapid axial imaging was performed from the aortic arch through the brain during the infusion of intravenous contrast material. Three-dimensional angiographic volume rendered, curved reformatted and segmented images were generated on a dedicated workstation. This report is based on interpretation of all of these images. DOSE: Acquisition sequence: 1) Stationary Acquisition 5.0 s, 18.8 cm; CTDIvol = 50.0 mGy (Head) DLP = 940.0 mGy-cm. 2) Sequenced Acquisition 0.5 s, 0.2 cm; CTDIvol = 14.6 mGy (Head) DLP = 2.9 mGy-cm. 3) Sequenced Acquisition 0.5 s, 0.2 cm; CTDIvol = 14.6 mGy (Head) DLP = 2.9 mGy-cm. 4) Stationary Acquisition 14.6 s, 0.2 cm; CTDIvol = 233.0 mGy (Head) DLP = 46.6 mGy-cm. 5) Spiral Acquisition 6.5 s, 42.4 cm; CTDIvol = 32.7 mGy (Head) DLP = 1,364.4 mGy-cm. 6) Stationary Acquisition 5.0 s, 18.8 cm; CTDIvol = 45.5 mGy (Head) DLP = 855.5 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Head) = 3,212 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: CT head from ___ FINDINGS: CT HEAD WITHOUT CONTRAST: Initial noncontrast CT Head was limited by motion, and additional repeat CT was obtained after the CTA portion of the exam, which is slightly limited by presence of residual IV contrast in the vasculature. Allowing for these limitations, there is no evidence of obvious infarction,hemorrhage,edema,ormass. There are atherosclerotic changes along both carotid siphons and the bilateral intradural vertebral arteries. There are confluent periventricular hypodensities, nonspecific but unchanged and suggestive of chronic small vessel ischemic changes. There is generalized parenchymal volume loss. Prominence of the ventricular system and extra-axial CSF spaces is consistent with the previously mentioned parenchymal volume loss. There is mild mucosal thickening along the ethmoid air cells with a mucous retention cyst in the left maxillary sinus. The remainder of the paranasal sinuses is clear. The visualized portion of the mastoid air cells,and middle ear cavities are clear. Note is made of bilateral lens replacement surgery. The visualized portion of the orbits are unremarkable. CTA HEAD: There are severe atherosclerotic changes along both carotid siphons partly resulting in focal moderate stenosis especially along the paraclinoid right ICA. There are vessel wall irregularities along the anterior circulation vasculature, consistent with atherosclerotic disease. There appears to be severe vessel stenosis at the origin of the left anterior temporal artery (series 8, image 279). Short-segment atherosclerotic changes along both intradural vertebral arteries result in mild left and moderate right luminal narrowing. The vertebrobasilar junction is unremarkable. Mild vessel irregularities along the basilar artery most likely reflect atherosclerotic change but there is no high-grade stenosis. There are additional mild vessel wall irregularities along both PCAs but no high-grade stenosis or vessel occlusion. There is otherwise no evidence of vessel occlusion or aneurysm formation. The dural venous sinuses are patent. CTA NECK: There is a 3 vessel aortic arch with moderate atherosclerotic changes extending in to the origin of the great vessels and resulting in mild narrowing of the right subclavian, left common carotid and left subclavian arteries. There are atherosclerotic plaques at the origin of both vertebral arteries resulting in at least mild stenosis. There is some remodeling of the cervical portion of both vertebral arteries due to hypertrophic degenerative changes of the cervical spine. There are mixed atheromatous and atherosclerotic changes at the left carotid bifurcation resulting in less than 20% luminal narrowing by NASCET criteria and mild stenosis at the origin of the left external carotid artery. There are severe atherosclerotic changes at the right carotid bifurcation resulting in short segment 60-70% stenosis of the proximal right ICA and mild stenosis at the origin of the right external carotid artery. OTHER: There is gravity dependent atelectasis. No suspicious pulmonary nodules. The visualized portion of the thyroid gland is within normal limits. There is no lymphadenopathy by CT size criteria. Thin note is made of scalp edema. There is diffuse cutaneous thickening overlying the left face, potentially representing clinical suspicion herpes zoster. IMPRESSION: 1. The initial CT head is limited by motion and a repeat CT head is limited by the presence of IV contrast. Allowing for this limitation, there is no obvious acute infarction, hemorrhage or intracranial mass. 2. Diffuse periventricular hypodensities are nonspecific but unchanged and suggestive of chronic small vessel ischemic changes. 3. Focal 60-70% stenosis of the proximal right ICA and less than 20% focal stenosis at the origin of the left ICA. Mild stenosis at the origin of both external carotid arteries. 4. Severe stenosis at the origin of the left anterior temporal artery. Otherwise diffuse mild vessel irregularities throughout the intracranial vasculature without high-grade stenosis, occlusion or aneurysm formation. 5. Diffuse atherosclerotic changes of the cervical vasculature resulting in mild stenosis at the origin of the great vessels and bilateral vertebral arteries. No evidence of dissection. 6. Additional findings as described above. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CHEST (PORTABLE AP) INDICATION: ___ year old man with encephalopathy with worsening mental status and increasing WBC.

IMPRESSION: No signs of pneumonia. RUQ Ultrasound ___ IMPRESSION: Normal appearance of the transplanted liver with normal hepatic vasculature. ERCP ___ Findings: Esophagus: Limited exam of the esophagus was normal Stomach: Limited exam of the stomach was normal Duodenum: Limited exam of the duodenum was normal Major Papilla: The 3 previously placed plastic biliary stents (2 straight, 1 double pigtail) were found in good position at the major papilla. The plastic stents were removed using a snare. Evidence of a previous sphincterotomy was noted at the major papilla. Cannulation: Cannulation of the biliary duct was successful and deep with a balloon using a free-hand technique. Contrast medium was injected resulting in complete opacification. Fluoroscopic Interpretation of the Biliary Tree: Scout film revealed ___ previous biliary stents in place. The bile duct was deeply cannulated with the balloon. Contrast was injected and there was brisk flow through the ducts. Contrast extended to the entire biliary tree. The previous seen smooth stricture of benign appearance at the biliary anastamosis was significantly improved. A very slight narrowing remained but there was excellent flow of contrast and minimal resistance to passage of the 12mm balloon. No filling defects were identified. The left and right hepatic ducts and IHD were normal. The biliary tree was swept with a 9-12mm balloon starting at the bifurcation. Two stones and a small amount of sludge was removed. Based on the drastic improvement in the anastamotic narrowing, no stent was replaced. Excellent bile and contrast drainage was seen endoscopically and fluoroscopically. Radiologic interpretation: I supervised the acquisition and interpretation of the fluoroscopic images. The quality of the fluoroscopic images was good. The total fluoroscopy time was 3.2mins.

COMPARISON: ___ intraoperative ultrasound FINDINGS: Transabdominal and transvaginal ultrasound exam were performed, the latter for better visualization of the endometrium and ovaries. The uterus measures 12.8 x 6.6 x 7.8 cm. A heterogeneous iso- to hypoechoic lesion measuring approximately 2.5 x 4.0 cm is seen within the endometrial canal with multiple anechoic spaces towards the fundus which demonstrate vascular flow in a somewhat serpiginous configuration. Doppler sonography of the area demonstrated elevated arterial systolic velocities up to 69 centimeters/second. Both ovaries are normal. There is no free fluid. IMPRESSION: Findings are concerning for vascularized retained products of conception versus an arterial venous malformation. If an intraoperative procedure is planned, recommend interventional radiology involvement for evaluation for possible embolization. Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ woman status post D&E on ___, now presents with acute onset lower abdominal cramping pain. The patient has diffuse tenderness over the fundus and adnexa on exam. The patient is afebrile, with an elevated white count of 22. COMPARISON: Pelvic ultrasound ___. TECHNIQUE: Multiplanar T1- and T2-weighted MR images of the pelvis were performed prior to and after uneventful intravenous administration of 8 mL of Gadovist. FINDINGS: The uterus is anteverted and mildly enlarged, measuring 14.0 x 7.0 x 8.8 cm. The endometrial cavity is distended by small amount of blood products, as well as enhancing soft tissue along the right lateral uterine body and fundus (2602:35), measuring approximately 3.5 x 1.9 cm, consistent with vascularized retained products of conception. No enlarged flow voids are seen within the myometrium to suggest an arteriovenous malformation. The adnexa are unremarkable, except for a 3-cm left ovarian follicular cyst. No pelvic lymphadenopathy or free fluid is seen. No pelvic abscess is seen. The imaged portion of liver, spleen, adrenal glands, kidneys and pancreas are unremarkable, except to note mild periportal edema as well as trace perihepatic/retroperitoneal edema, likely related to third spacing from fluid overload. No pathologic retroperitoneal or mesenteric lymphadenopathy is seen. The abdominal aorta is normal in caliber. The stomach, small and large bowel loops, including the appendix are normal. No marrow signal abnormality is evident. IMPRESSION: 1. Enhancing soft tissue along the right lateral uterine body and fundus, associatd with some blood products, consistent with retained products of conception. Lack of flow voids, makes AVM unlikely. 2. 3-cm left ovarian follicular cyst. 3. No evidence for acute appendicitis. 4. Periportal/retroperioneal edema likely relate to third spacing. Radiology Report HISTORY: ___ woman with likely retained products of conception status post D & E on ___. COMPARISON: ___ TECHNIQUE: Grayscale and color Doppler ultrasound images were performed. FINDINGS: Ultrasound guidance for D&C was performed. Blood and other debris is seen within the cavity at the end of the procedure. IMPRESSION: Ultrasound guidance for D&C.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Can walk independently, but uses walker. Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report INDICATION: The patient with left knee pain. TECHNIQUE: Single frontal radiograph of the chest was obtained. COMPARISON: Chest CT from ___, frontal and lateral radiographs from ___. FINDINGS: The lungs are clear, the cardiomediastinal silhouette and hila are normal. There is atherosclerotic calcification of the aorta. No pneumonia, no pleural effusion and no pneumothorax. IMPRESSION: No acute cardiothoracic process. Radiology Report INDICATION: Patient after trip and fall, left knee pain. TECHNIQUE: Single frontal view of the pelvis was obtained. COMPARISON: There are no comparison studies available. FINDINGS: There are mild degenerative changes at the femoroacetabular joints. Moderate degenerative changes are seen in the lower lumbar spine with a possible transitional vertebral body. Calcified uterine fibroids are seen. IMPRESSION: No fracture. Radiology Report INDICATION: Patient after trip and fall, left knee pain. TECHNIQUE: Three views of the left knee joint were obtained. COMPARISON: Left knee joint from ___. FINDINGS: The patient is status post total left knee arthroplasty. There is no evidence of hardware loosening, bony or hardware fracture. No knee joint effusion. IMPRESSION: No acute process. Radiology Report HEAD CT HISTORY: Status post fall. Question head injury. COMPARISONS: None. TECHNIQUE: Non-contrast head CT. FINDINGS: There is no mass effect, hydrocephalus or shift of the normally midline structures. The ventricles, cisterns and sulci are unremarkable without effacement. Patchy calcifications are noted in each basal ganglia. A small focus of hypodensity in the anterior limb of the left internal capsule as well as more vague hypodensity along the more anterior part of the internal capsule suggests chronic small vessel ischemic disease, which is also apparent in periventricular regions of white matter posterior to the lateral ventricles in the parietal regions. Surrounding soft tissue structures are unremarkable. There is no evidence for fracture. Minimal polypoid thickening is noted along the floor of the left maxillary sinus. IMPRESSION: No evidence of injury. Radiology Report CT OF THE CERVICAL SPINE HISTORY: Status post fall with head and neck pain. COMPARISONS: None. TECHNIQUE: Multidetector CT images of the cervical spine were obtained without intravenous contrast. Sagittal and coronal reformations were also performed. FINDNIGS: The entire thyroid appears heterogeneous including a dominant 18 mm diameter nodule in the right lobe which is hypodense. Calcifications are prominent along each carotid bulb. There are moderate degenerative changes throughout the cervical spine which can probably explain slight spondylolisthesis of C3 on C4 and C4 on C5. Specifically facet joint degenerative changes are prominent bilaterally from C2-C3 through C7-T1. At C7-T1 there is again mild spondylolisthesis. Particularly from C4-C5 through T1-T2 there are small marginal osteophytes and mild to moderately narrowed interspaces. Also from C3-C4, throughout the remaining part of the cervical spine and associated with facet and uncovertebral joint spurring, there is mild to moderate neural foraminal narrowing that appears most prominent at C4-C5. There is no evidence for fracture, dislocation or bone destruction. IMPRESSION: 1. Moderate degenerative changes including spondylolisthesis at two sites which is mild and can very likely be attributed to background degenerative changes, although ligamentous injuries are difficult to entirely exclude by imaging. Clinical correlation is advised. 2. Heterogeneous thyroid including a dominant right lobe nodule. When clinically appropriate, evaluation with ultrasound is suggested. 3. Vascular calcifications.

It was a pleasure taking care of you during your recent hospitalization. You were admitted because you had dizziness and a fall. We found no evidence of broken bones on imaging. We evaluated your heart with an EKG and overnight monitoring and there was no evidence of abnormal rhythms. There was no evidence indicating you had a heart attack or stroke (CT also showed no bleeding in your head). We felt that the dizziness was because you had not been eating or drinking much that day in the setting of recent changes to your blood pressure medications. You had some changes in your heart rate and blood pressure that indicated you were dehydrated as well. You will follow up with your PCP to discuss this further. . We made the following CHANGES to your medications during this hospitalization: - STARTED tylenol. please take this for pain from fall injuries. - STARTED oxycodone. please take this if the tylenol is not enough to control pain, but it can make you sleepy so do not drive while taking this medication.

Discharge Diagnosis: primary diagnosis: mechanical fall, hyperglycemia Discharge Condition: Mental Status: Confused - sometimes. Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - requires assistance or aid (walker or cane). Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report CHEST RADIOGRAPH HISTORY: Status post fall. Question fracture. COMPARISONS: Scout view from chest CT performed on ___. TECHNIQUE: Chest, AP supine. FINDINGS: The heart is normal in size. The aortic arch is calcified. The mediastinal and hilar contours appear unchanged. The lungs appear clear. There is no pleural effusion or pneumothorax. Mild relative elevation of the left hemidiaphragm compared to the right appears new. Prior fractures involve the posterior seventh and eighth ribs with callus appear incompletely united. IMPRESSION: No evidence of acute disease. New mild elevation of the left hemidiaphragm. Radiology Report RIGHT HAND RADIOGRAPHS HISTORY: Status post fall. Question fracture. COMPARISONS: None. TECHNIQUE: Left hand, three views. FINDINGS: Mild degenerative changes are noted at the first carpometacarpal joint. There are mild-to-moderate degenerative changes involving the first metacarpophalangeal and interphalangeal joints. The second through fifth proximal interphalangeal joints show mild degenerative changes and moderate degenerative change including prominent osteophytes are noted at the second through fifth distal interphalangeal joints. Degenerative changes are most prominent at the fifth. The second, fourth and fifth metacarpophalangeal joints are mildly narrowed. The third appears more severely narrowed with subluxation and subchondral sclerosis, both likely chronic. There are chronic-appearing erosive changes along the second and third metatarsal heads with corticated margins, with suggestion of remodeling of each head; this appearance may be consistent with remote prior trauma or possibly inflammation. The possibility of prior inflammatory arthropathy could be considered in the appropriate clinical setting, however. Vascular calcifications and demineralization are noted. IMPRESSION: Degenerative changes and findings which may reflect prior inflammation or trauma involving the second and third metacarpophalangeal joints. Correlation with localizing findings is recommended, but there is no definite evidence for fracture. Radiology Report RADIOGRAPHS OF THE LEFT KNEE HISTORY: Status post fall. Question fracture. COMPARISONS: ___. TECHNIQUE: Left knee, three views. FINDINGS: The patient is status post left total knee replacement. The femoral and tibial prostheses appear well-seated without evidence for hardware loosening. There is again a small osteophyte along the superior margin of the patella. There is no evidence for fracture, dislocation or bone destruction. Vascular calcifications are present. There has been no significant change. IMPRESSION: No evidence of acute process. Status post left total knee replacement. Radiology Report INDICATION: Fall, evaluate for fracture or intracranial injury. COMPARISONS: CT of the head ___. TECHNIQUE: Continuous axial images were obtained through the brain without the administration of IV contrast. Coronal, sagittal, and thin slice bone reconstructed images were provided and reviewed. FINDINGS: There is no acute hemorrhage, edema, or shift of the normally midline structures. No large territorial vascular infarction is seen. Prominence of the ventricles and sulci likely relates to age-related volume loss. White matter hypodensities, though nonspecific, are compatible with sequela of chronic small vessel disease. Gray-white matter differentiation is preserved. The basal cisterns remain patent. The visualized paranasal sinuses and mastoid air cells are well aerated. As previously mentioned, a bony projection seen in the left sphenoid sinus may represent an osteoma. There is no fracture. The lenses and globes are normal. IMPRESSION: No evidence of acute intracranial process. Radiology Report INDICATION: Fall, evaluate for fracture. COMPARISONS: CT of the cervical spine ___. TECHNIQUE: MDCT axial images were obtained through the cervical spine without the administration of IV contrast. Coronal, sagittal and thin section bone reformations were provided and reviewed. FINDINGS: There is no fracture. No prevertebral soft tissue swelling or malalignment is noted. Again seen are severe degenerative changes of the cervical spine marked by anterior osteophytosis and loss of disc height. This appears most severe at C4-5 through C6-7. At this level, there is mild canal stenosis, otherwise, the spinal canal is grossly patent. The visualized lung apices are unremarkable. The thyroid is normal. Vascular calcifications are seen at the carotid bifurcations. IMPRESSION: No evidence for acute fracture in the setting of unchanged severe degenerative changes of the cervical spine.

Ms. ___, It was a pleasure caring for you during this hospitalization. You were admitted to the hospital with multiple symptoms including abdominal pain and symptoms of an upper respiratory illness. CT scans of your abdomen were negative for any acute process and you underwent flexible sigmoidoscopy which showed minimal inflammation only, which is felt not to be the cause of your symptoms. You were evaluated by OBGYN, who felt your symptoms were related to your right ovarian cyst. They have recommended that you have a repeat ultrasound of this in six months. Your upper respiratory symptoms were felt to be related to viral infection. Testing for flu was negative, Unfortunately testing for other viruses that could cause your symptoms had to be canceled because not enough specimen was collected. However, you improved with supportive care alone, without antibiotics, again confirming that this was likely due to a viral process. Later in your hospital stay you developed abrupt left leg weakness and as a result were sent for an MRI of your lumbar spine, which was largely normal. Your exam, labs and imaging were reassuring. Please follow up with your primary care provider regarding these symptoms.

Small bowel shows mildly prominent fluid content distally, and similar to the recent prior study, there is mildly prominent fluid content along the whole colon, but without wall thickening or associated inflammatory changes. Prostate is again enlarged with central hypertrophy. Distal ureters, seminal vesicles and bladder appear normal. There is no ascites. There is no discrete lymphadenopathy, only stable soft tissue thickening in the splenic hilum which is unchanged since at least ___. There is similar narrowing of the mid splenic vein and probably multifocal narrowings among splenic venous branches at the hilum that are sequela of prior lymphoma at the site and thrombosis that has resolved. Owing to this circumstance, there are numerous collateral vessels draining the spleen including extensive gastric fundal varices, without short-term change. There also small paraesophageal varices and a large gastro omental collateral from the splenic hilar venous branches in the hilum to the superior mesenteric vein. Bony structures are unchanged, including bilateral iliac lesions. Slight superior compression deformity of T12 is unchanged. IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of splenic venous thrombosis. Unchanged sequela of prior splenic venous thrombosis and lymphoma in the splenic hilum, however, with narrowed venous structures and associated collateral flow including gastric varices. 2. Unchanged splenic infarct. Stable moderate splenomegaly. 3. Mildly prominent fluid content along the distal small bowel and colon, similar to recent prior findings, nonspecific.

Dear Mr. ___, You were admitted to ___ because you had an irregular heart rhythm with a fast rate. You were started on Amiodarone to help control the heart rhythm. You will be taking 400 mg twice a day (2 tablets twice a day, with last dose on ___. You will then take Amiodarone 400 mg once a day (2 tablets daily for seven days starting on ___ last dose on ___. You will then be on Amiodarone 200 mg daily there after to help control your irregular rhythm. You will need to follow up with your heart doctor to decide whether to continue this medication. You were also given ___ of Hearts monitor (to monitor your heart rhythm). Please follow the instructions provided and follow up the results with your heart doctor. Your metoprolol XL at discharge was 150mg daily. We also made several changes to your medications. We discharged you with Imdur 60mg. We stopped your amlodipine (for blood pressure) because your blood pressures were better controlled. We also stopped your enalapril (heart medication) because your blood pressure was maintained while you were in the hospital. We also decreased your warfarin dose (blood thinner) because your blood number were in good control. Please discuss these medication changes with your heart doctor at your next appointment on ___. You will need to continue your other heart medications, which have not changed. In particular, you should continue to take aspirin and clopidogrel (also known as Plavix). These two medications keep the stents in the vessels of the heart open and help reduce your risk of having a future heart attack. If you stop these medications or miss ___ dose, you risk causing a blood clot forming in your heart stents, and you may die from a heart attack. Please do not stop taking either medication without taking to your heart doctor, even if another doctor tells you to stop the medications. It was a pleasure to take care of you. We wish you the best with your health! Your ___ Cardiac Care Team

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report EXAMINATION: Chest radiograph, portable AP semi-upright. INDICATION: Shortness of breath. COMPARISON: CT is available from ___. FINDINGS: Central venous catheter terminates in the right atrium. Patient is status post mitral valve replacement. Lung volumes are very low. Cardiac, mediastinal and hilar contours appear stable. There is no definite pleural effusion. No visible pneumothorax. Patchy nonspecific left basilar opacity, although most frequently this would be due to atelectasis as there is some chronic scarring at the site. Right basilar opacity is patchy and may be due to newly developed pneumonia or aspiration since the recent prior CT of the abdomen, which depicted the lung bases. Mild vascular congestion. IMPRESSION: Opacities at the right lung base which may be due to aspiration, pneumonia, possibly asymmetric edema; less typical for atelectasis. Suspected mild coinciding vascular congestion. RECOMMENDATION(S): Short-term follow-up repeat radiographs may be helpful. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT ABD AND PELVIS WITH CONTRAST ___ INDICATION: NO_PO contrast; History: ___ with abdominal pain. NO_PO contrast // cholecystitis? cholangitis? TECHNIQUE: Abdominal pain. DOSE: Acquisition sequence: 1) Stationary Acquisition 4.0 s, 0.5 cm; CTDIvol = 19.3 mGy (Body) DLP = 9.6 mGy-cm. 2) Spiral Acquisition 5.9 s, 46.6 cm; CTDIvol = 13.2 mGy (Body) DLP = 613.4 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Body) = 623 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: ___. FINDINGS: Patient is status post mitral valve replacement. Heart is mildly enlarged. Opacities at each lung base suggest atelectasis, but right middle lobe opacity with air bronchograms raises suspicion for pneumonia. Morphological changes of the liver suggest fibrosis/cirrhosis including enlargement of the left lateral segments and caudate with respect to the right lobe which is moderately striking. No focal liver lesions are identified on this monophasic portal venous examination. There is no biliary dilatation. Gallbladder shows small layering stones, but is otherwise unremarkable. The pancreas appears normal. Patient is status post splenectomy. Adrenals are unremarkable. Very small simple appearing cyst along the upper pole of the right kidney. Mild scarring along the left upper pole. These findings are unchanged. In each case there is again prominent extrarenal pelvis, which is usually a normal variant. However, in this case the right ureter is also mildly dilated. This may be secondary to bladder distension. The stomach and small bowel appear normal. The extent of stool along the whole colon is moderately prominent. Hyperdense pill fragments are found within the colon. Appendix is identified and appears normal. Bladder is moderately distended. Again observed are moderate-sized left gonadal varices. Uterus and adnexa are otherwise unremarkable. Vascular calcification is mild. Major vascular structures appear widely patent. There is no lymphadenopathy, free air, or free fluid. Diastasis rectus. Bones appear demineralized. There are no suspicious bone lesions. Sclerotic focus in the left acetabulum is again consistent with a bone island. Moderate degenerative changes affect lower lumbar facets. Compression deformities of the T12 and L1 vertebral bodies are stable including kyphoplasty/vertebroplasty changes in T12. IMPRESSION: 1. Finding suggest right middle lobe pneumonia. 2. Mildly distended gallbladder with stones but without specific evidence for acute cholecystitis. Ultrasound may be helpful to evaluate further, however, if that remains a potential concern based on clinical grounds. Owing to its deep location, however, it would be difficult to assess for ___ sign regardless, however. 3. Findings concerning for chronic liver disease. 4. Moderate bladder distension, which might explain mild new right hydroureter.

Dear Ms. ___, You were hospitalized due to symptoms of language difficulty and headache resulting from an ACUTE HEMORRHAGIC STROKE (ACUTE CEREBRAL HEMORRHAGE), a condition in which a blood vessel providing oxygen and nutrients to the brain ruptures preventing adequate blood flow to portions of the brain. The brain is the part of your body that controls and directs all the other parts of your body, so damage to the brain from being deprived of its blood supply can result in a variety of symptoms. The hemorrhage may have been caused by REVERSIBLE CEREBRAL VASOCONSTRICTION SYNDROME, which is a result of constriction of the blood vessels supplying your brain. To determine if this is the cause, you were started on a new medication (verapamil). You should continue verapamil for 3 months and we will complete a new scan in 3 months. Stroke can have many different causes, so we assessed you for medical conditions that might raise your risk of having stroke. In order to prevent future strokes, we plan to modify those risk factors. Your risk factors are: - High blood pressure - Heart disease with cardiac stents that require blood thinners. You should continue your aspirin and plavix. We discussed your warfarin medication with your cardiologist and we decided you should stop this medication and undergo telemetry monitoring to determine if you have an irregular heart rhythym at rehab. If you do, then you and your cardiologist can discuss re-starting the medication, but we do not recommend that you use aspirin, plavix and warfarin together. You will need strict management of your blood pressure. Please purchase a blood pressure cuff at your nearest pharmacy and start measuring your blood pressure daily. Your systolic blood pressure (the top number) goal is <140. Keep a log of your blood pressures and bring them to every appointment. We also recommend a heart healthy diet (low fat, low salt), daily exercise, and stress reduction techniques. Please follow up with your primary care physician in the next ___ weeks. We would also like you to follow up in our clinic in ___ months. We are changing your medications as follows: START Amlodipine 10 mg daily START Verapamil 240 mg daily. Continue for 3 months. START Carvedilol 3.125 CHANGE to Atorvastatin 20 mg daily CHANGE to Torsemide 5 mg from 10 mg STOP Hydrochlorothiazide 25 STOP Metoprolol Succinate 25 STOP Warfarin 1 mg Sincerely, Your ___ Neurology Team

FINDINGS: The imaged thyroid gland is homogeneous in attenuation without focal nodularity. Scattered axillary nodes are not pathologically enlarged and normal in morphology. A right PICC terminates within the right atrium. Several mediastinal nodes are present. A right upper paratracheal node measures 8 mm the level of the thoracic inlet (05:16). A right lower paratracheal station node measures 7 mm (05:22). An aortopulmonary window node measures 8 mm in diameter (05:22). The ascending aorta is non aneurysmal. The main pulmonary artery is dilated measuring up to 44 mm (05:25) suggestive of although not diagnostic for pulmonary hypertension. Study is not designed for detection of pulmonary emboli beyond the lobar level. Heterogeneity within a right lower lobe pulmonary artery branch could very well reflect mixing artifact. There is no pericardial effusion. Multi-chamber heart enlargement is moderate. Diffuse coronary artery calcifications are moderately severe. Moderate calcifications involve the aortic arch, origins of head and neck vessels, and descending thoracic aorta. An enteric tube descends the thorax within the esophagus, its tip incompletely imaged. Small pleural effusions are nonhemorrhagic and layering, left greater than right. Secretions are present within the trachea. Consolidation within the left lower lobe and to a smaller degree the right lower lobe medially are associated with air bronchograms, may be atelectatic in etiology. A heavy volume of bronchocentric, ground-glass opacities is confined to the right upper lobe, confluent above fissural thickening of the minor fissure, as best appreciated on the sagittal reformations image 61. There are no worrisome osseous lesions in the chest cage. Moderately severe, compression fracture of the T10 vertebral body with depression of the anterior and superior endplate is age indeterminate. For complete subdiaphragmatic findings, please refer to CT abdomen and pelvis performed concurrently, clip number ___. IMPRESSION: 1.

The ventricles and sulci are normal in size and configuration. There is no shift of normally midline structures. No acute fracture is detected. The middle ear cavities, mastoid air cells, and included views of the paranasal sinuses are clear. The right mastoid air cells are incidentally noted to be underdeveloped (2:7). IMPRESSION: No acute intracranial process. MRI C/L/T spine w/ and w/o contrast 1. No evidence of cord signal abnormality. 2. Multiple levels of cord impingement in the cervical spine caused by disc-osteophyte complexes, worst at c5/c6 and c6/7 where there is also left neural forminal narrowing. 3. Large annular tear with broadbase protrusion which significantly indents the ventral theca at the L4/5 level and the traversing the left L5 nerve root. It may also be contacting the right L5 nerve root, but not impinging this. 4. In the lower T and L spine, no paraspinal or epidural enhancing soft tissue mass. No pathologic or leptomengingeal cord focus of enhancement. Patient could not complete post contrast C-spine imaging. 5. No evidence of marrow replacement by cancer or epidural sot tissue mass however diffusely abnormal bone marrow signal, likely red marrow reconversion or osteopenia. Medications on Admission: none Discharge Medications: 1. ___ stockings 2. Outpatient Physical Therapy Evaluate and treat for left lower extremity weakness for cervical and lumbar spondylosis with radiculopathy Discharge Disposition: Home Discharge Diagnosis: cervical spondylosis with neuropathy Discharge Condition: Mental Status: Clear and coherent. Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Level of Consciousness: Lethargic but arousable. Neuro exam with ___ strength in L IP, hamstring, TA; ___ in all other muscle groups in LEs and UEs. Sensation is intact to light touch throughout, improved since admission. Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report HISTORY: ___ woman with history of abnormal mammogram (but no history of malignancy, per OMR), left lower extremity weakness and sensory, and back pain. Query disc herniation versus malignant infiltration. COMPARISONS: None. TECHNIQUE: MRI of the entire spine, with and without contrast. N.B. The patient could not tolerate the entire exam and only post-gadolinium imaging of the lower thoracic and lumbar spine could be obtained. FINDINGS: There is diffuse heterogeneous T1- and T2-hypointensity of the all the veterbral bodies; while there is no evidence of marrow replacement by malignancy, the diffuse bone marrow signal abnormality could be related to red marrow reconversion (in response to anemia or systemic treatment) or osteopenia. There is no spinal cord signal abnormality through the conus medullaris, which is normal in morphology and terminates at the L2 level. The imaged retroperitoneal and paraspinal soft tissues are unremarkable in overall appearance. In the lower T and L-spine, where post-gadolinium images were obtained, there is no enhancing paraspinal or epidural soft tissue mass. There is no pathologic leptomeningeal or intramedullary focus of enhancement. CERVICAL SPINE: There are multiple levels of degenerative changes noted in the cervical spine. At C3/C4, there is central disc protrusion causing minimal compression of the thecal sac but no foraminal narrowing. At C4/C5, there is flattening of the thecal sac caused by broad-based disc-osteophyte complex. There is also bilateral mild to moderate neural foraminal narrowing at this level. At C5/C6, there is disc protrusion which extends into the the proximal left neural foramen and indents the spinal cord as well as narrows the left neural foramen, impinging upon the exiting C6 nerve root (5:18). At C6/C7, there is similar narrowing of the left intraforaminal zone and again narrowing of the neural foramina, impinging upon the exiting C7 nerve root. THORACIC SPINE: No significant degenerative changes are noted in the thoracic spine. LUMBAR SPINE: Again, there are multilevel, multifactoral degenerative changes in the lumbar spine, worst at L4/L5. In the L3 vertebral body, a somewhat rounded, well defined 1.4 x 1.1 cm T1- and T2-hyperintense lesion does not parallel the endplate and its signal is suppressed on "water" IDEAL images indicating a likely hemangioma. A similar, although slightly larger 1.5 x 1.4 cm lesion in the L4 vertebra also likely represents a hemangioma. Subtle ___ I and ___ changes are seen at the anterior aspect of the L4 vertebral endplate. At L4/L5, there is disc desiccation with a large transverse annular tear with broad-based protrusion which significantly indents the ventral theca and impinges upon the traversing left L5 nerve root (11:19). This also contacts the traversing right L4 nerve root; however, the degree of impingement is not nearly as severe on this side. At this level, there is also ligamentum flavum thickening, facet arthrosis and a significant narrowed subarticular recess At L5/S,1 there is again disc desiccation and a a small transversely-oriented annular tear with an accompanying protrusion which barely abuts the traversing S1 nerve roots. IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of spinal cord signal abnormality. 2. Multilevel cord deformity in the cervical spine caused by disc-osteophyte complexes, most severe at C5/C6 and C6/C7, where there is also significant left neural foraminal narrowing with impingement upon the exiting left C6 and C7 nerve roots. 3. Multilevel degenerative disease in the lumbar spine, most marked at the L4/L5 level where a large annular tear with accompanying broad-based protrusion indents the ventral thecal sac and significantly impinges upon the traversing left L5 nerve root. 4. In the lower T- and the L-spine, no enhancing paraspinal or epidural soft tissue mass. No pathological or leptomeningeal, intramedullary or radicular focus of enhancement. (The patient could not tolerate post-contrast C-spine imaging.) 5. No evidence of marrow replacement by malignancy. However, the diffusely abnormal bone marrow signal may be due to red marrow reconversion, myeloproliferative disorders or osteopenia, and should be correlated clinically. COMMENT: These findings were discussed with the requesting provider, Dr. ___ (Neurology service), by Dr. ___ via telephone, at 5:25 p.m. on the day of the study.

Dear Ms. ___, You were admitted to the hospital with left leg weakness and numbness, back pain, and lightheadedness. You had an MRI of your spine which showed spine disease with the bones pressing on your spinal cord which explains your symptoms of weakness and numbness. On discharge, you should wear a cervical collar and work with physical therapy for your leg as an outpatient. However, DO NOT do any physical therapy involving your neck. Also, you should avoid lifting anything heavier than 10 pounds. You MUST wear your cervical at ALL times, 24 hours per day. Please do not return to work on discharge as we do not want you to exacerbate your injuries. When you follow up in neurology clinic as scheduled below, we will re-assess whether or not it is safe for you to return to work. The lightheadedness you have experienced is likely due to low blood pressure. We recommend that you stay hydrated and make sure you have some salt in your diet. For example, try to eat a bowl of soup daily. Also, you should wear ___ stockings to prevent your blood from pooling in your legs (prescription for these stockings is included). We have not made any changes to your medications. On discharge, please follow up with Drs. ___ in neurology clinic as scheduled below. It was a pleasure taking care of you, we wish you all the best!

Dear ___, It was a pleasure taking care of you at ___. You came in with coughing fits that improved with an inhaler. We think this is most likely do to some asthma or irritation of the airway, possibly from dust exposure at your job. For this we will send you with a medication called an albuterol inhaler that it is important to take whenever you feel short of breath or feel like you are coughing. The possibility that these symptoms are from pneumonia or lung infection are unlikely, however we will give you a medication called azithromycin for you take for a total 5 day course. While taking this medication it is important to stop taking atorvostatin because of a possible interaction between these medications. Sincerely, Your ___ team

Radiology Report CERVICAL SPINE MRI WITHOUT CONTRAST, ___ INDICATION: ___ man struck by a motor vehicle with a prevertebral cervical edema on cervical spine CT. Assess for ligamentous injury. COMPARISON: Cervical spine CT performed earlier on the same day. TECHNIQUE: Sagittal T1-weighted, T2-weighted, and fat-suppressed T2-weighted images of the cervical spine, with axial gradient echo images. FINDINGS: There is bone marrow edema in the right occipital condyle related to the fracture demonstrated on the preceding CT scan (3:12). There is bone marrow edema along the superior endplate of the T4 vertebral body, without associated deformity or loss of height, which may indicate a bone contusion or a non-displaced fracture (3:8). Questionable linear lucencies parallel to the superior endplates of T4 and T5 vertebral bodies, without loss of height, as seen on the torso CT performed earlier on the same day. No bone marrow edema is seen in the cervical vertebrae. There is prevertebral edema from the craniocervical junction through C5-6. There is edema in the anterior longitudinal ligament from C2-3 through C5-6, and edema in the posterior longitudinal ligament from C1-2 through C2-3 levels. There is no evidence for ligamentous disruption, or intervertebral disc disruption. There is edema in the interspinous ligaments from the craniocervical junction through C6-7, as well as edema in the paravertebral muscles of the cervical spine and suboccipital muscles. There is no evidence for an epidural collection. At C2-3, there is mild right neural foraminal narrowing by facet osteophytes. At C3-4, there is a central disc osteophyte complex which indents the ventral spinal cord and flattens its ventral surface, with moderate spinal canal narrowing. There is high T2 signal within the cord at this level spanning 13 mm craniocaudad, compatible with edema or myelomalacia. Gradient echo images demonstrate no evidence of blood products within the spinal cord at this level. There is also mild bilateral neural foraminal narrowing by uncovertebral osteophytes. At C4-5, there is a left paracentral disc osteophyte complex which abuts the ventral surface of the spinal cord on the left, with mild flattening but no edema. There is mild to moderate associated spinal canal narrowing. There is mild bilateral neural foraminal narrowing by uncovertebral osteophytes. At C5-6, there is a small central disc osteophyte complex which mildly narrows the spinal canal but does not deform the spinal cord. There is mild right and moderate left neural foraminal narrowing by uncovertebral osteophytes. At C6-7, no significant spinal canal or neural foraminal narrowing is seen. At C7-T1, no significant spinal canal narrowing is seen. At T1-2, there is an oval 12 x 9 x 6 mm fluid-intensity structure extending from the distal left neural foramen into the extraforaminal soft tissues. This could represent a nerve root sleeve diverticulum, but traumatic avulsion of the root cannot be excluded. Cerebellar tonsils are normally positioned. Imaged portion of the posterior fossa is grossly unremarkable; this study is not technically optimized for its evaluation. Mucosal thickening is noted in the imaged portions of the maxillary sinuses. Known fractures through the left maxillary sinus and left hard palate are not well demonstrated on this exam. IMPRESSION: 1.

Dear Mr ___, You were admitted to the ___ for weakness in the left hand which was due to a stroke affecting the frontal lobe on the right side of your brain. This is likely attributable to your atrial fibrillation and you would benefit from an anticoagulant such as apixaban. Taking your age, weight, and kidney function into account, the recommended dose is 5mg two times per day. It is important that you do not miss any doses, as there may be a clotting "rebound" effect where you are more likely to have a clot if you do miss ___ dose. You should not take this together with aspirin or other NSAIDs (such as ibuprofen, naproxen, etc). The main side effect of this medication is bleeding so please come to the emergency room if you have any major injuries (especially if you injure your head). Some of your other medications have changed. We increased your Lipitor from 40mg to 80mg in an effort to better reduce your risk of stroke. We decreased your atenolol from 50 to 25mg daily because your blood pressure was well controlled and your pulse was already quite low on half your prior dose. I agree with your endocrinologist that we do need to better control your blood sugars though we will defer to her expertise as to which drug to use to do so. Please do not hesitate to call us with any problems. Please see the "warning signs" below. It is very important to follow up with your PCP, ___, endocrinologist, and neurologist.

Ms. ___, It was a pleasure taking care of you here at the ___ ___. You were admitted to our hospital for acute inflammation of your appendix. You had a laparoscopic appendectomy during this admission without complications. You tolerated the procedure well and are ambulating, stooling, tolerating a regular diet, and your pain is controlled by medications by mouth. You are now ready to be discharged home. Please follow the recommendations below to ensure a speedy and uneventful recovery. ACTIVITY: - Do not drive until you have stopped taking pain medicine and feel you could respond in an emergency. - You may climb stairs. You should continue to walk several times a day. - You may go outside, but avoid traveling long distances until you see your surgeon at your next visit. - You may start some light exercise when you feel comfortable. Slowly increase your activity back to your baseline as tolerated. - Heavy exercise may be started after 6 weeks, but use common sense and go slowly at first. - No heavy lifting (10 pounds or more) until cleared by your surgeon, usually about 6 weeks. - You may resume sexual activity unless your doctor has told you otherwise. HOW YOU MAY FEEL: - You may feel weak or "washed out" for 6 weeks. You might want to nap often. Simple tasks may exhaust you. - You may have a sore throat because of a tube that was in your throat during the surgery. YOUR BOWELS: - Constipation is a common side effect of narcotic pain medicine such as oxycodone. If needed, you may take a stool softener (such as Colace, one capsule) or gentle laxative (such as milk of magnesia, 1 tbs) twice a day. You can get both of these medicines without a prescription. - If you go 48 hours without a bowel movement, or have pain moving the bowels, call your surgeon. - After some operations, diarrhea can occur. If you get diarrhea, don't take anti-diarrhea medicines. Drink plenty of fluids and see if it goes away. If it does not go away, or is severe and you feel ill, please call your surgeon. PAIN MANAGEMENT: - You are being discharged with a prescription for oxycodone for pain control. You may take Tylenol as directed, not to exceed 3500mg in 24 hours. Take regularly for a few days after surgery but you may skip a dose or increase time between doses if you are not having pain until you no longer need it.

Chief Complaint: abdominal pain Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: ___: US-guided percutaneous cholecystectomy drain placement History of Present Illness: This is a ___ year-old gentleman with history of rectal cancer s/p low anterior resection and diverting ileostomy with subsequent takedown (___), who was recently admitted to the hospital given a 5-day history of abdominal pain, found on workup to have acute cholecystitis. Given duration of symptoms, decision was made to treat non-operatively and administer antibiotics (percutaneous cholecystostomy tube placement was not pursued given minimal gallbladder distention). He responded well to initial therapy and was discharged home after a 24-hour stay, having tolerated clear liquids diet and being free of pain. He now presents less than 12 hours after discharge with recurrent abdominal pain, which appeared shortly after dinner consisting of spinach omelette and rice. Similar to his previous pain, he describes it as sharp and severe, located over his epigastrium and radiating towards the right upper quadrant and back. Pain worsens with deep inspiration. Concomitantly, he endorses nausea but no emesis, chills but no fever, as well as bloating sensation, mostly after meals.

INDICATION: ___ year old man with chronic cholecystitis // please evaluate for percutaneous cholecystostomy tube placement COMPARISON: Abdominal ultrasound ___. PROCEDURE: Ultrasound-guided percutaneous cholecystostomy. OPERATORS: Dr. ___ trainee and Dr. ___ radiologist. Dr. ___ supervised the trainee during the key components of the procedure and reviewed and agrees with the trainee's findings. TECHNIQUE: The risks, benefits, and alternatives of the procedure were explained to the patient with use of interpreter service. After a detailed discussion, informed written consent was obtained. A pre-procedure timeout using three patient identifiers was performed per ___ protocol. The patient was placed in a slight left posterior oblique position on the ultrasound table. Limited preprocedure imaging was performed to localize the gallbladder. An appropriate skin entry site was chosen and the site marked. Local anesthesia was administered with 1% Lidocaine solution. Using continuous sonographic guidance, an ___ Exodus drainage catheter was advanced via trocar technique. The wall of the gallbladder was difficult to traverse, likely due to chronic inflammation. Gentle aspiration was attempted times which failed to yield bilious fluid. Patient began to experience significant pain at which time procedure was aborted. Given sudden increase in patient pain, a noncontrast CT abdomen was obtained to evaluate for acute abdominal process and is dictated under separate accession number. SEDATION: Moderate sedation was provided by administering divided doses of 4.5 mg Versed and 250 mcg fentanyl throughout the total intra-service time of 110 minutes during which patient's hemodynamic parameters were continuously monitored by an independent trained radiology nurse. FINDINGS: Gallbladder wall is dilated measuring up to 8 mm in thickness. There are echogenic structures with posterior acoustic shadowing consistent with gallstones. IMPRESSION: Attempted ultrasound guided percutaneous cholecystostomy was aborted due to difficulty traversing the thickened, likely chronically inflamed gallbladder wall and due to patient pain. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT abdomen without contrast. INDICATION: Followup ultrasound. TECHNIQUE: MDCT axial images were acquired through abdomen and pelvis without the intravenous contrast administration. Coronal and sagittal reformations were performed and reviewed on PACS. Oral contrast was not administered. DOSE: DLP: 365 mGy-cm (abdomen and pelvis. COMPARISON: Same date ultrasound. CT abdomen ___. FINDINGS: LOWER CHEST: Bibasilar atelectasis is mild. The the there is no pleural or pericardial effusion. ABDOMEN: HEPATOBILIARY: The liver demonstrates homogenous attenuation throughout. There is no evidence of focal lesions. There is no evidence of intrahepatic or extrahepatic biliary dilatation. Gallbladder wall thickening is re- demonstrated. Dense material within dependent aspect of the gallbladder likely represents vicarious excretion of intravenous contrast from prior CT ___. There are small foci of free air at the level of the falciform ligament. Small amount of free air is also visualized anterior to the right renal vein with suggestion of tracking towards the gallbladder fossa. There is no intra-abdominal free fluid. PANCREAS: The pancreas has normal attenuation throughout, without evidence of focal lesions or pancreatic ductal dilatation. There is no peripancreatic stranding. SPLEEN: The spleen shows normal size and attenuation throughout, without evidence of focal lesions. ADRENALS: The right and left adrenal glands are normal in size and shape. URINARY: The kidneys are of normal and symmetric size There is no evidence of stones or hydronephrosis. GASTROINTESTINAL: Small bowel loops demonstrate normal caliber, wall thickness and enhancement throughout. Visualized colon is within normal limits. RETROPERITONEUM: There is no evidence of retroperitoneal and mesenteric lymphadenopathy. VASCULAR: There is no abdominal aortic aneurysm. There is no calcium burden in the abdominal aorta and great abdominal arteries. BONES AND SOFT TISSUES: There is no evidence of worrisome lesions. Abdominal and pelvic wall is within normal limits. IMPRESSION: 1. Small amount of free air posterior to the pancreas with questionable extension to the gallbladder fossa. This air may have been introduced at time of procedure during aspiration or when the stylet was placed back in the catheter. There is no abdominal fluid collection. Additional small foci of air anterior to the falciform ligament and along the right anterior hepatic margin (03:23) 2. Gallbladder wall thickening consistent with chronic cholecystitis. Dependent hyperintense material within the gallbladder lumen likely represent vicarious contrast excretion from prior CT. This would indicate patent cystic duct. NOTIFICATION: The findings were discussed by Dr. ___ with Dr. ___ on the telephone on ___ at 1:37 ___. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: Ultrasound-guided percutaneous cholecystostomy tube placement INDICATION: ___ year old man with acute cholecystitis COMPARISON: Ultrasound from ___ PROCEDURE: Ultrasound-guided percutaneous cholecystostomy. OPERATORS: Dr. ___ fellow and Dr. ___ radiologist. Dr. ___ supervised the trainee during the key components of the procedure and reviewed and agrees with the trainee's findings. TECHNIQUE: The risks, benefits, and alternatives of the procedure were explained to the patient. After a detailed discussion, informed written consent was obtained. A pre-procedure timeout using three patient identifiers was performed per ___ protocol. The patient was placed in a supine position on the ultrasound table. Limited preprocedure imaging was performed to localize the gallbladder. An appropriate skin entry site was chosen and the site marked. Local anesthesia was administered with 1% Lidocaine solution. Using continuous sonographic guidance, an ___ drainage catheter was advanced via trocar technique into the gallbladder. A sample of fluid was aspirated, confirming catheter position within the collection. The plastic stiffener was removed. The pigtail was deployed. The position of the pigtail was confirmed within the collection via ultrasound. Ultrasound images were stored on PACS. Approximately 15 cc of black, bilious fluid was drained with a sample sent for microbiology evaluation. The catheter was secured by a StatLock. The catheter was attached to bag. Sterile dressing was applied. The procedure was tolerated well, and there were no immediate post-procedural complications. SEDATION: Moderate sedation was provided by administering divided doses of 2 mg Versed and 100 mcg fentanyl throughout the total intra-service time of 15 minutes during which patient's hemodynamic parameters were continuously monitored by an independent trained radiology nurse. FINDINGS: Limited preprocedure ultrasound of the right upper quadrant demonstrates a gallbladder with wall thickening that is not significantly distended and is similar to the prior ultrasound -for further details please see recent ultrasound and CT from ___. IMPRESSION: Successful ultrasound-guided placement of ___ pigtail catheter into the gallbladder. Samples was sent for microbiology evaluation.

The pain is central/left sided in distribution, and hurts with inhaling. The patient reports no dyspnea. She reports feeling better when sitting up. The patient was resting when the pain started most recently a few days ago. There is no fevers/chills, no N/V, no abd pain, no D/C. There have been no sick contacts. About 3 weeks ago the patient had similar chest pain. She also had runny nose, cough, headache, and sore throat. The upper respiratory symptoms resolved except for ongoing mild cough. The chest pain also resolved after ~2 days until ~5 days ago when it recurred and worsened. In the ED, initial vitals were 99 128/58 32 78%RA. Patient was placed on a non-rebreather and improved with this and nebulizers. ECG showed ST changes in the inferior leads. Patient received aspirin 325 mg x 1. Troponin was negative x 2. Bedside ultrasound showed no perdicardial effusion or notable wall motion abnormality. Chem7 was unremarkable. CBC showed elevated WBC count to 12.2K, no left shift. proBNP was 625. Lactate was 1.8. D-dimer was elevated, and CTA chest showed no pulmonary embolism on preliminary read. Flu swab was obtained given tachypnea and hypoxia. Cardiology was consulted and thought the ECG and TTE did not represent ischemia, more likely pericarditis. They recommended 500 mg additional aspirin and colchicine. She triggered for heart rate while awaiting placement with atrial fibrillation with RVR in the 140s-150s, and systolic blood pressure in the ___. Diltiazem 10 mg x 1 was given.

No atrial septal defect is seen by 2D or color Doppler. The estimated right atrial pressure is ___ mmHg. Left ventricular wall thickness, cavity size and regional/global systolic function are normal (LVEF >55%). The estimated cardiac index is normal (>=2.5L/min/m2). The right ventricular cavity is mildly dilated with normal free wall contractility. [Intrinsic right ventricular systolic function is likely more depressed given the severity of tricuspid regurgitation.] The aortic valve leaflets (3) appear structurally normal with good leaflet excursion and no aortic stenosis or aortic regurgitation. The mitral valve leaflets are structurally normal. Mild (1+) mitral regurgitation is seen. The tricuspid valve leaflets are mildly thickened. Moderate [2+] tricuspid regurgitation is seen. There is moderate to severe pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. There is no pericardial effusion. IMPRESSION: Suboptimal image quality. Normal biventricular cavity sizes with preserved regional and global systolic function. Right ventricular cavity dilation with preserved free wall motion. Moderate to severe pulmonary artery hypertension. Moderate tricuspid regurgitation. Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of ___, the right ventricular cavity is now slightly larger and the severity of tricuspid regurgitation has slightly increased. The other findings are similar. . CTA CHEST ___: 1. There is no evidence of PE or aortic dissection. 2. Bibasilar atelectasis and emphysematous changes bilaterally, worse since the comparison study. 3. Prominent main pulmonary artery may be due to a component of pulmonary hypertension. 4.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report HISTORY: Shortness of breath and hypoxia. Evaluate for infectious process versus fluid. TECHNIQUE: Semi-upright AP frontal radiographs of the chest. COMPARISON: Multiple prior radiographs of the chest, most recent ___. FINDINGS: The patient is rotated to the right significantly limiting evaluation of the mediastinal structures. Allowing for these limitations a faint small focal opacity in the left upper lobe is not appreciably changed since ___ and may correspond to scarring. Bibasilar hazy opacities are likely due to atelectasis, however small pleural effusions cannot be excluded on this limited frontal radiograph, and there is mild blunting of the lateral costophrenic sulci. The mediastinal structures are not well evaluated, however, the heart appears mildly enlarged. There is no evidence of pulmonary edema or pneumothorax. IMPRESSION: 1. Bibasilar opacities likely a combination of atelectasis and possibly trace pleural effusions. 2. If clinically indicated a repeat frontal and lateral radiograph with normal positioning would provide a more complete evaluation. Radiology Report HISTORY: Chest pain, new atrial fibrillation. Evaluate for PE or aortic dissection. TECHNIQUE: Helical MDCT images were obtained through the chest after administration of 100 cc of Omnipaque IV contrast. Multiplanar axial, coronal, and sagittal images were generated and reviewed. COMPARISON: CT chest ___. FINDINGS: CT thorax: Although this study is not designed to evaluate the intra-abdominal structures, the visualized solid organs are grossly unremarkable. The thyroid is unremarkable and there is no supraclavicular or axillary lymph node enlargement. The airways are patent at the subsegmental level. Hilar and mediastinal lymphadenopathy is more prominent: 1.4 cm right lower paratracheal lymph node (3: 83), 3 x 2.7 cm subcarinal lymph node (3:96). The pericardium, and great vessels are within normal limits. Lung windows demonstrate bilateral emphysematous changes worse since the prior study. There is bibasilar atelectasis. There is no pleural effusion or pneumothorax. CTA thorax: The aorta and major vessels are well opacified. The aorta is of normal caliber throughout the thorax without intramural hematoma, aneurysm, or dissection. The main pulmonary artery is somewhat prominent suggesting a component of pulmonary hypertension. The pulmonary arteries are opacified to the subsegmental level. There is no filling defect in the main, right, left, lobar or subsegmental pulmonary arteries. Osseous structures: There is no focal osseous lesion concerning for malignancy. IMPRESSION: 1. There is no evidence of PE or aortic dissection. 2. Bibasilar atelectasis and emphysematous changes bilaterally, worse since the comparison study. 3. Prominent main pulmonary artery may be due to a component of pulmonary hypertension. 4. Enlarged hilar and mediastinal lymph nodes are more prominent and may relate to patient's history of sarcoidosis.

Dear Ms. ___, You were admitted to the hospital with chest pain. Your lab tests were NOT suggestive of a heart attack. However, you may have a condition called pericarditis, which is inflammation of the sack that sits around the heart. For this condition, you should take ibuprofen 800mg three times a day for 7 days. Please take this for the full 7 days even if you no longer feel the pain. While taking this, you should take 40mg daily of omeprazole instead of your usual 20mg daily. You were also found to have an abnormal heart rhythm called atrial fibrillation. It's possible that your heart goes in and out of this rhythm. Please discuss with your primary care physician whether or not you should begin taking a medication to slow your heart rate, as well as whether or not you should begin taking a blood thinner to prevent stroke (your risk of stroke is increased with atrial fibrillation). You should take a full dose aspirin instead of the baby aspirin for now. It is extremely important for you to stop smoking. Smoking can lead to cancer, heart disease, and death, and will worsen your COPD. Please follow up as instructed below and please take all medications as prescribed. It was a pleasure participating in your care.

STUDY: AP portable upright chest radiograph. COMPARISON: Chest radiograph and chest CTA from ___. FINDINGS: The heart size is within normal limits. The mediastinal and hilar contours are normal. Again are seen diffuse areas of ground-glass opacities are similar to slightly improved in extent from prior exam. There is no large pleural effusion or pneumothorax. No pulmonary consolidation is present. IMPRESSION: Diffuse ground-glass opacities with minimal improvement after diuresis most compatible with either an atypical infection or inflammatory process. Radiology Report AP CHEST, 5:39 P.M., ___ HISTORY: After CABG and AVR. Assess lines and tubes and complications. IMPRESSION: AP chest compared to ___: Mediastinum has a normal post-operative appearance, particularly given supine positioning. There is no evidence of mediastinal bleeding or other fluid accumulation. Swan-Ganz catheter probably ends in the left descending pulmonary artery. ET tube is in standard placement. An upper enteric tube would need to be advanced 6 cm to move all the side ports into the stomach. Midline drains in place. Pleural effusion minimal if any. No pneumothorax. Pre-operative edema has cleared from the lower lungs, but there is still extensive peripheral opacification in both upper lobes, raising possibility of findings not related to cardiac decompensation, such as chronic eosinophilic pneumonia, vasculitis, or even infection. Findings were discussed by telephone with Dr. ___ at 8:55 a.m. on ___. Radiology Report HISTORY: ___ female with removal of chest tube, evaluate for pneumothorax. COMPARISON: ___. FINDINGS: Portable upright frontal chest radiograph demonstrates interval removal of a left chest tube. Airspace opacity is similar in distribution bilaterally likely reflecting edema accentuated by low lung volumes. A right pleural effusion is increased. The postoperative cardiac silhouette and mediastinal contours are unchanged. Median sternotomy wires are unchanged. There has been interval removal of an endotracheal tube, NG tube, epicardial pacing wires, right IJ sheath, and Swan-Ganz catheter. There may be a trace left pneumothorax without evidence of tension. The stomach is distended with air. IMPRESSION: Increasing right pleural effusion and pulmonary edema, exaggerated by low lung volumes status post extubation. Radiology Report CLINICAL HISTORY: Pulmonary edema, on therapy, evaluate for improvement. CHEST: The current film is considerably better penetrated than the prior film of ___. The degree of failure is probably the same. Some areas show more opacification, others less. The right effusion, however, is probably less. IMPRESSION: Little change in the degree of failure. Radiology Report CLINICAL HISTORY: Central venous line placed, check position. The right subclavian line has gone into the internal jugular vein and its tip cannot be seen. Focal opacities are again noted within both the right and left lobes and a right effusion is likely present. These could represent a patchy bronchopneumonia rather than resolving failure. IMPRESSION: Central line in right neck. Radiology Report CLINICAL HISTORY: Central line repositioned. Check current status. The tip of the right central line now lies in the mid-to-lower SVC in a good position. The patchy focal opacities remain unchanged in both lungs. IMPRESSION: Tip of central line in SVC. Radiology Report HISTORY: Post-operative changes. FINDINGS: In comparison with the study of ___, the patient has taken a much better inspiration. Blunting of the costophrenic angles persists as well as an area of patchy opacification in the right mid zone laterally. There has been substantial improvement in the other areas of scattered pulmonary opacification. Radiology Report ___ Department of Radiology Standard Report Carotid US Study: Carotid Series Complete Reason: ___ year old woman with severe AS planned for surgical repair. Findings: Duplex evaluation was performed of bilateral carotid arteries. On the right there is moderate calcified plaque in the ICA. On the left there is mild heterogeneous plaque seen in the ICA. On the right systolic/end diastolic velocities of the ICA proximal, mid and distal respectively are 135/38, 108/35, 116/53 cm/sec. CCA peak systolic velocity is 83/28 cm/sec. ECA peak systolic velocity is 78 cm/sec. The ICA/CCA ratio is 1.6. These findings are consistent with 40-59% stenosis. On the left systolic/end diastolic velocities of the ICA proximal, mid and distal respectively are 113/42, 91/27, 106/25 cm/sec. CCA peak systolic velocity is 74/20 cm/sec. ECA peak systolic velocity is 176 cm/sec. The ICA/CCA ratio is 1.5 . These findings are consistent with 40-59% stenosis. Right antegrade vertebral artery flow. Left antegrade vertebral artery flow.

INDICATION: ___ year old woman with fevers for a week, now with left flank pain r/o pyelonephritis// fevers for a week, now with left flank pain r/o pyelonephritis TECHNIQUE: Single phase split bolus contrast: MDCT axial images were acquired through the abdomen and pelvis following intravenous contrast administration with split bolus technique. Oral contrast was administered. Coronal and sagittal reformations were performed and reviewed on PACS. DOSE: Total DLP (Body) = 352 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: LOWER CHEST: Visualized lung fields are within normal limits. There is no evidence of pleural or pericardial effusion. ABDOMEN: HEPATOBILIARY: Punctate hypodensity within the right lobe of the liver is too small to characterize, but likely represents a cyst or biliary hamartoma (series 5, image 18). The liver demonstrates homogenous attenuation throughout. There is no suspicious hepatic lesion. There is no evidence of intrahepatic or extrahepatic biliary dilatation. The gallbladder is within normal limits. PANCREAS: The pancreas has normal attenuation throughout, without evidence of focal lesions or pancreatic ductal dilatation. There is no peripancreatic stranding. SPLEEN: The spleen shows normal size and attenuation throughout, without evidence of focal lesions. An accessory spleen is seen at the hilum.

URINARY: Within the upper pole of the left kidney, there are two thick-walled lesions measuring 2.0 x 1.5 cm and 1.4 x 1.2 cm with central hypoattenuation (series 7, image 26, 28), which given the clinical history of pyelonephritis, are compatible with abscesses. A 9 mm hypodensity within the interpolar region of the left kidney is too small to characterize, but likely represents a simple cyst (series 7, image 30). Otherwise, the kidneys are of normal and symmetric size with normal nephrogram. There is no evidence of hydronephrosis. There is no perinephric abnormality. GASTROINTESTINAL: The stomach is unremarkable. Small bowel loops demonstrate normal caliber, wall thickness, and enhancement throughout. The colon and rectum are within normal limits. The appendix is normal. PELVIS: Circumferential wall thickening of the bladder, greater than expected for the degree of distension, likely representing cystitis. There is no free fluid in the pelvis. REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS: The visualized reproductive organs are unremarkable. LYMPH NODES: There is no retroperitoneal or mesenteric lymphadenopathy. There is no pelvic or inguinal lymphadenopathy. VASCULAR: There is no abdominal aortic aneurysm. No atherosclerotic disease is noted. BONES: There is no evidence of worrisome osseous lesions or acute fracture. SOFT TISSUES: The abdominal and pelvic wall is within normal limits. IMPRESSION: 1. Two thick-walled lesions measuring 2.0 x 1.5 cm and 1.4 x 1.2 cm with small central fluid components in the upper pole of the left kidney, which given the clinical history of pyelonephritis, are compatible with abscesses. 2. Mild circumferential wall thickening of the bladder, greater than expected for the degree of distension, likely representing cystitis. NOTIFICATION: The findings were discussed with ___, M.D. by ___, M.D. on the telephone on ___ at 1:30 pm, 2 minutes after discovery of the findings.

Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report INDICATION: Aphasia for the past one and half weeks. Evaluate for stroke or intracranial hemorrhage. COMPARISON: None. TECHNIQUE: Sequential axial images were acquired through the head without administration of intravenous contrast material. Multiplanar reformats were performed. TOTAL DLP: 780 mGy-cm. CTDIvol: 55.5 mGy. FINDINGS: There is no evidence of hemorrhage, edema, shift of normally midline structures, hydrocephalus, or infarction. Hypodense areas within the left frontal lobe are likely the sequelae of prior small vessel ischemia. Prominence of the ventricles and sulci are compatible with age-related involutional change. The visualized portions of the orbits are unremarkable. The imaged portions of the paranasal sinuses and the mastoid air cells are clear. IMPRESSION: 1. No acute intracranial process. 2. Hypodense foci the left frontal lobe white matter, likely the sequelae of prior small vessel ischemia. Radiology Report INDICATION: Aphasia for the past ___ weeks. Assess for infection. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: The lungs are clear. The heart size is normal. The mediastinal contours are normal. There are no pleural effusions. No pneumothorax is seen. IMPRESSION: No acute cardiac or pulmonary process. Radiology Report HISTORY: New onset stuttering. Left frontal hypodensity on CT. TECHNIQUE: Diffusion imaging and 3D time-of-flight MRA were performed through the brain. Sagittal T1 weighted imaging was performed. This was followed by axial T2, FLAIR, and gradient echo imaging. 2 dimensional time-of-flight MRA was performed through the neck. Subsequently, 3 dimensional time-of-flight MRA was performed during infusion of 17 cc of MultiHance intravenous contrast. COMPARISON: Head CT ___. FINDINGS: The brain MRA demonstrates apparent subacute infarction in a watershed distribution in the left deep white matter. A small focus of subacute infarction extends to the left frontal cortex. These areas demonstrate normal or fast diffusion and no evidence of hemorrhage. FLAIR images also demonstrate scattered deep periventricular and subcortical white matter hyperintensity suggesting chronic small vessel ischemia. The MRA demonstrates severe narrowing of the supraclinoid segment of the left internal carotid artery with poor filling of the carotid bifurcation and to the M1 segment of the left middle cerebral artery. The A-1 segment of the left anterior cerebral artery appears patent on the T2 weighted images, but poorly visualized on the MRA examinations, perhaps a consequence of slow flow. The vertebral arteries are patent bilaterally. The origins of the great vessels appear normal. IMPRESSION: Subacute watershed distribution infarction in the left hemisphere. Severe left internal carotid artery stenosis in its supraclinoid segment extending to the bifurcation. No evidence of stenosis or occlusion in the neck. No evidence of internal carotid artery stenosis by NASCET criteria.

Dear ___, You were hospitalized due to symptoms of stuttering speech resulting from an ACUTE ISCHEMIC STROKE on the left side of your brain whcih accounts for your speech hesitancy. In a stroke, a blood vessel providing oxygen and nutrients to the brain is blocked by a clot. The brain is the part of your body that controls and directs all the other parts of your body, so damage to the brain from being deprived of its blood supply can result in a variety of symptoms. Stroke can have many different causes, so we assessed you for medical conditions that might raise your risk of having stroke. In order to prevent future strokes, we plan to modify those risk factors. Your risk factors are: - Narrowing of your internal carotid artery on the left (an artery which supplies blood to your brain) whcih we saw on the vessel MRA imaging. We also requested an echocardiogram which was normal to look for any cardiac contribution for your stroke. Your goal blodo pressure should be a systolic 120-140 given the narrowing in your carotid artery. We have prescribed outpatient speech therapy for you. We are changing your medications as follows: - ADDED aspirin 81mg daily to reduce your stroke risk - ADDED clopidogrel 75mg daily to reduce your stroke risk - ADDED atorvastatin 40mg daily to lower your cholesterol - You may RESTART your cellcept, and continue on your prednisone Please take your other medications as prescribed. As your symptoms were determined to be secondary to your stroke and not to your cellcept, we have spoken to your ophthalmologist, Dr. ___ we have agreed that you should RESTART your cellcept at the same dose that you were on before. You should also continue on your prednisone. Please followup with Neurology and your primary care physician as listed below. If you experience any of the symptoms below, please seek emergency medical attention by calling Emergency Medical Services (dialing 911). In particular, since stroke can recur, please pay attention to the sudden onset and persistence of these symptoms: - sudden partial or complete loss of vision - sudden loss of the ability to speak words from your mouth - sudden loss of the ability to understand others speaking to you - sudden weakness of one side of the body - sudden drooping of one side of the face - sudden loss of sensation of one side of the body - sudden difficulty pronouncing words (slurring of speech) - sudden blurring or doubling of vision - sudden onset of vertigo (sensation of your environment spinning around you) - sudden clumsiness of the arm and leg on one side or sudden tendency to fall to one side (left or right) - sudden severe headache accompanied by the inability to stay awake It was a pleasure providing you with care during this hospitalization.

TECHNIQUE: Single supine AP view of the chest. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: Underlying trauma board and other external artifact partially obscure the view. Given this, no focal consolidation, pleural effusion, or evidence of pneumothorax is seen. The cardiac and mediastinal silhouettes are unremarkable. No displaced fracture is seen. IMPRESSION: No acute intrathoracic process seen. Radiology Report HISTORY: Spinal pain after motor vehicle accident, left arm weakness, evaluate for cord contusion. TECHNIQUE: Multiplanar multisequence MRI of the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine was obtained without IV contrast as per department protocol. COMPARISON: No prior. FINDINGS: Cervical spine: There is mild increased STIR signal in the prevertebral soft tissues from C2-C4 level and to a lesser extent from C4-C7 levels suggesting ligamentous injury. There is high T2 signal within the C5-C6 disk suspicious for disc injury. There is high T2, high STIR, and isointense T1 signal in the anterior epidural space along the posterior margin of the C2 vertebral body extending inferiorly to C4 suspicious for epidural hematoma. There are superimposed broad-based disc bulges at C2-C3 and C3-C4 levels. There is abnormal signal within the cord from C2-C3 and C3-C4 suggesting compression/contusion due to a combination of diffuse disc bulges and epidural hematoma. At C5-C6, there is a left paracentral disc protrusion deforming the cord without abnormal signal within the cord. At C6-C7, there is a broad-based disc protrusion resulting in moderate bilateral neural foraminal narrowing. There is deformity of the anterior thecal sac without evidence of deformity of the cord. The paraspinal soft tissues are unremarkable. The vertebral body heights are within normal limits. Thoracic spine: There is no evidence of abnormal STIR signal. The vertebral body heights are unremarkable. The disc spaces are normal. The bone marrow signal is unremarkable. At T2-T3, there is an small disc bulge without evidence of spinal canal or neural foraminal narrowing. Otherwise, the spinal canal is preserved throughout the cervical spine. There is no evidence of abnormal cord signal. At T11-T12, there is diffuse ligamentum flavum thickening indenting the thecal sac posteriorly without deforming the cord. Lumbar spine: The alignment is normal. The bone marrow signal is unremarkable with the exception of a hemangioma within the L2 vertebral body. The vertebral body heights are normal. The conus medullaris terminates at L1 and has normal signal and configuration. At L4-L5 and L5-S1, diffuse disc bulges are noted indenting the thecal sac. There is a left far lateral disc protrusion disc protrusion at at L4-L5. The paraspinal soft tissues are unremarkable. IMPRESSION: 1. Cord contusion/compression at C2-C3 and C3-C4 due to a combination of diffuse disc bulges and epidural hematoma as described. 2. Abnormal STIR signal in the prevertebral soft tissues as described suggesting ligamentous injury. 3. Abnormal T2 hyperintensity in the C5-C6 disc in keeping with disc injury. 4.

CXR ___: No acute cardiopulmonary process. Moderate cardiomegaly. ANIS ___: Findings as stated above which indicate significant left SFA and tibial disease, overall similar to the prior study of ___. Of note is a flat-line amplitude at the left metatarsal level. RENAL U/S ___: 1. No hydronephrosis, stones or solid renal mass. 2. Prostatic hypertrophy likely causes bladder outlet obstruction, accounting for difficulty voiding. MICROBIOLOGY: ============= URINE CX ___: MIXED BACTERIAL FLORA ( >= 3 COLONY TYPES), CONSISTENT WITH SKIN AND/OR GENITAL CONTAMINATION URINE CX ___: <10,000 organisms/ml URINE CX ___: YEAST. >100,000 ORGANISMS/ML. BLOOD CX ___ X 2: NO GROWTH Radiology Report HISTORY: ___ female with acute on chronic injury. Evaluation for hydronephrosis. TECHNIQUE: Grayscale and color Doppler ultrasound images were obtained of the bilateral kidneys and bladder. COMPARISON: Comparison is made to ultrasound of the kidneys from ___. FINDINGS: The right kidney measures 9.4 cm and the left kidney measures 9.7 cm. There is no evidence of hydronephrosis. No cyst, stone or solid mass is identified in either kidney. The bladder is trabeculated and median lobe prostate hyperplasia indents upon the bladder base. Layering debris is present in the bladder. IMPRESSION: 1. No hydronephrosis, stones or solid renal mass. 2. Prostatic hypertrophy likely causes bladder outlet obstruction, accounting for difficulty voiding. Radiology Report INDICATION: Weakness. Evaluate for pneumonia. COMPARISON: ___ chest radiograph. FINDINGS: PA and lateral views of the chest. There is no focal consolidation, pleural effusion, vascular congestion or pneumothorax. The aorta is tortuous. There is moderate cardiomegaly. Otherwise, the mediastinal and hilar contours are normal. There is mild elevation of the right hemidiaphragm, unchanged. IMPRESSION: No acute cardiopulmonary process. Moderate cardiomegaly. Radiology Report INDICATION: Back pain and weakness in the left leg. Evaluate for fracture. COMPARISONS: Lumbosacral spine radiographs from ___. CT abdomen and pelvis from ___. TECHNIQUE: Contiguous helical MDCT images were obtained through the lumbar spine without the administration of IV contrast. Sagittal, coronal, and bone reformatted images were obtained and reviewed. DLP TOTAL: 884.63 mGy-cm. CTDI VOLUME: 30.94 mGy. FINDINGS: The patient is status post L2 through S1 spinal posterior fusion with laminectomies of L4 through L5. The hardware appears intact without evidence of pedicle screw fracture. The rods are intact without evidence of a fracture or malalignment. The post-surgical changes with graft material from the posterior aspect of the pedicle screws are not significantly changed from the prior exam. There are severe multilevel degenerative changes with fusion of the left aspect of the L2 and L3 vertebral bodies and near-complete fusion of the right lateral aspect of the L4 and L5 vertebral bodies and the central aspect of the L5 and S1 vertebral bodies. This is similar to the prior exam. There is mild dextroscoliosis of the lumbar ___ at L2. There is straightening of the normal lumbar lordosis. Alignment is otherwise stable without significant anterolisthesis or retrolisthesis. The exam is limited by significant osteopenia, though no definite acute fracture is identified. There is mild loss of height in the anterior portion of the vertebral body of T12, unchanged from the prior exam. There is mild loss of height in L1, also unchanged. At T11-T12, there is loss of disc space height, small Schmorl's nodes, and vacuum phenomenon. There is likely a small disc bulge without significant central canal narrowing. At T12-L1, there is loss of disc height with small Schmorl's nodes. No significant disc bulge is identified. At L1-L2, there is severe loss of disc space height with significant vacuum phenomenon, endplate sclerosis, and osteophyte formation. A partially calcified osteophyte extends posteriorly into the central canal (400b, 30). This is likely causing moderate central canal narrowing. Evaluation is somewhat limited by surrounding metallic artifact. At L2-L3, there is severe loss of disc space height, endplate sclerosis. Evaluation at this level is significantly limited by surrounding metallic artifact, although there is an eccentric disc bulge on the right (2, 27), likely causing moderate central canal narrowing. At L3-L4, disc space height is preserved essentially on the right due to an interbody spacer. It is narrowed on the left. Interbody spacer has metallic artifact, posteriorly, and evaluation for significant disc disease is limited. At L4-L5, disc space height is also maintained due to interbody spacer. Again due to the metallic artifact, it is difficult to evaluate for disc disease. At L5-S1, there is severe disc space narrowing, endplate sclerosis, and osteophyte formation. There is a small posterior osteophyte (400b, 38), causing mild-to-moderate canal narrowing. Evaluation of the thecal sac throughout this exam was limited due to technique and artifact. No free fluid is identified in the pelvis. The psoas muscles are grossly symmetric without evidence of hematoma or fluid collection. No fluid collection is identified in the paraspinal muscles or post-surgical bed. There is a 3-mm non-obstructing right renal stone in the upper pole of the kidney (3, 3). Smaller calcifications around the renal hilum are likely atherosclerotic calcifications in the renal arteries. There are no left renal stones. No mass is identified in the imaged portions of the kidneys. There is no hydronephrosis. Imaged portions of the abdominal aorta are normal in caliber without evidence of an aneurysm. There is severe atherosclerotic disease, including at the takeoff of the celiac and SMA arteries. IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of acute fracture, though the exam is significantly limited by severe osteopenia, metallic artifact and degenerative changes. 2. Mild loss of height in T12 and L1, grossly unchanged from ___. 3. Status post L2 through S1 fusion with laminectomies of L3, L4, and L5, and no definite evidence of hardware complication. 4. Severe multilevel degenerative changes with posterior osteophytes and disc bulges extending posteriorly into the canal with at least moderate spinal canal narrowing at multiple levels. 5. 3-mm non-obstructing right renal stone. 6. Severe atherosclerotic disease. Radiology Report INDICATION: Back pain and weakness in the left leg. Evaluate for fracture. COMPARISONS: CT of the lumbar spine obtained concurrently with this CT. CT of the abdomen and pelvis from ___. TECHNIQUE: Contiguous axial MDCT images were obtained through the pelvis without the administration of IV or oral contrast. Sagittal and coronal reformatted images were obtained and reviewed. TOTAL DLP: 1425.02 mGy-cm. FINDINGS: For details of the lumbar spine, please see the lumbar spine CT. Note, the patient is status post a L2 through S1 fusion with postoperative changes. Post-surgical changes are noted in the sacrum. There is no evidence of a sacral fracture. There are moderate degenerative changes of the bilateral sacroiliac joints with sclerosis and small subchondral cysts. The patient is status post a left bipolar total hip arthroplasty. The hardware appears intact without evidence of loosening or dislocation. Post-surgical changes are similar to the prior exam in ___. There is no evidence of fracture of the left femur around the prosthesis. There is no evidence of a pelvic fracture or right femur fracture. Moderate degenerative changes are noted in the right hip and at the pubic symphysis. Extensive atherosclerotic calcifications are noted in the bilateral common iliac arteries, and in internal and external iliac arteries. There is diverticulosis without evidence of diverticulitis. The imaged portions of the small bowel are normal. There is no pelvic or inguinal lymphadenopathy. There is no free fluid in the pelvis. The prostate is mildly enlarged measuring 5.2 cm (2, 77). The bladder is moderately distended. Apparent wall thickening may be chronic, though recommend correlation with UA to exclude active cystitis. The pelvic musculature demonstrates fatty infiltration and some asymmetry, likely due to the left hip prosthesis. There is no evidence of intramuscular hematoma. Calcifications in the left buttocks are likely injection granulomas. There is moderate anasarca without a discrete fluid collection in the soft tissues. IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of fracture. 2. Status post left total hip arthroplasty without evidence of hardware complication. 3. Moderate degenerative changes in the right hip, bilateral sacroiliac joints, and pubic symphysis. 4. Mild bladder wall thickening maybe due to chronic obstruction from BPH, although correlation with UA is recommended to exclude cystitis. 5. Diverticulosis without evidence of diverticulitis.

Dear Mr. ___, It was a pleasure to take care of you during your recent admission at ___. You came after falling in the tub and fortunately did not break any bones. We found that your kidneys were a little worse and that your second left toe seems to be getting very little blood and may be infected. Unfortunately, the vessels that go to your to cannot be fixed but we're treating the infection with antibiotics to make sure it doesn't get worse. To help your kidneys, it is important that you drink water or other liquids when you feel thirsty to keep from getting dehydrated. To further investigate what is happening in your kidneys, you are scheduled for a kidney biopsy next week. Make sure to keep taking your medications and follow-up with Dr. ___. We wish you the best, Your ___ Medicine Team
