CT findings in COVID-19 exhibit typical periferal ground glas opacities of relatively uniform pattern. Those findings are important in differential diagnosis of febrile state with cough. Being familiar with those findings, it helps to distinguish highly-suspected COVID-19 from the other causes of febrile state.

Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser syndromeCase report

Calcifications in adrenal masses - are they really typical for adrenocortical carcinomas?Original article

Filip Čtvrtlík, Petr Kučera, Zuzana Sedláčková, Kateřina Langová, Igor Hartmann, Milan Král, Jozef Škarda, Jan Baxa, Milan Hora, Zbyněk Tüdös

Ces radiol. 2020, 74(1):28-32 | DOI: 10.55095/CesRadiol2020/005

The results of our study refute the largerly accepted opinion about calcifications as a typical sign of adrenocortical carcinomas. On the contrary, our study showed that the occurrence of calcifications is most common in adrenal myelolipomas.

Masking of acute basal ganglia infarction in CT perfusionCase report

Miroslav Malík, Peter Mikula, Magdaléna Mižičková, Dagmar Randová, Tomáš Tvrdík, Marek Krivošík, Jozef Bilický, Vladimír Javorka

Ces radiol. 2020, 74(1):33-36 | DOI: 10.55095/CesRadiol2020/006

Restoration of nonnutritive perfusion in cerebral infarction can lead to a normal CT perfusion appearance and can also occur in the acute phase of ischemic stroke.

Noninvasive measurement of left atrial volume using echocardiography and computed tomographyOriginal article

Zbyněk Tüdös, Jan Macek, Martin Hutyra, Tomáš Skála

Ces radiol. 2020, 74(1):37-42 | DOI: 10.55095/CesRadiol2020/007

Estimation of left atrial volume calculated from routine 2D echocardiography insufficiently correlate with volume based the CT data. The use of ECG gating during the CT data acquisition does not affect the degree of correlation between 2D echocardiographic and CT volumetry.

Polyarteritis nodosa: Case report and review of the literatureCase report

Milan Vajda, Petr Hoffmann, Alice Jansová, Michal Hůlek, Jana Draganovičová, Ondřej Živný, Pavla Čabelková

Ces radiol. 2020, 74(1):43-46 | DOI: 10.55095/CesRadiol2020/008

We present a case of a patient diagnosed with polyarteritis nodosa and discuss its imaging options.

Changes in the prostate assessment using classification PI-RADS 2.1Review article

Jan Pernický, Radek Tupý, Jana Cibulková, Jiří Ferda

Ces radiol. 2020, 74(1):47-54 | DOI: 10.55095/CesRadiol2020/009

Evaluation using PI-RADS 2.1 repairs incerteneity and improves definitions of previous issues, scoring system improves standartized approach in the assessment of the prostatic lesions.

Evauation of the extracapsular extension of the prostatic carcinoma using magnetic resonance imagingReview article

Jiří Ferda, Radek Tupý, Jan Pernický, Eva Ferdová, Milan Hora, Ondřej Hes

Ces radiol. 2020, 74(1):55-61 | DOI: 10.55095/CesRadiol2020/010

Besides the metastatic spread detection, the extracapsular extension of the tumorous tssue is the crucial finding during pre-operative assessment of prostatic carcinoma, the key MRI sequence are TSE T2 weighted images.
