Radek Hlaváček, Jiří Jandura, Milan Vajda, Radka Dvořáková, Michal Čech, Vendelín Chovanec, Jiří Vaňásek, Petr Hoffmann, Pavel Ryška
Ces radiol. 2025, 79(4):261-267 | DOI: 10.55095/CesRadiol2025/030
This article provides a comprehensive overview of current insights into facet osteoarthritis as a significant yet often overlooked cause of chronic spinal pain. It emphasizes the importance of combining morphological and functional imaging techniques for accurate diagnosis and targeted therapy. Radiofrequency ablation and oxygen-ozone therapy appear to be effective treatment options, particularly in patients with back and neck pain related to facet joint pathology. The article aims to enhance understanding of this condition and support broader implementation of advanced diagnostic and therapeutic approaches in clinical practice.

Magnetic resonance imaging of the temporomandibular jointsReview article
Jan Pernický, Jitka Levorová, Eva Korčáková, Jiří Ferda, Lukáš Hauer
Ces radiol. 2025, 79(4):308-316 | DOI: 10.55095/CesRadiol2025/038
Magnetic resonance imaging represents the most accurate and comprehensive modality for evaluating the temporomandibular joints, as it allows detailed assessment of disc position and motion, the condition of soft tissues and bony structures without radiation exposure, and is essential for diagnosing dysfunctions and planning treatment.
O-RADS MRI score for assessment of adnexal massesOriginal article
Mohsen Gomaa Hassan Ismail, Rasha Salah-Eldin Hussien, Basant Mohamed Raief Mosaad, Arwa Adel Mahmoud Hendy
Ces radiol. 2025, 79(4):317-326 | DOI: 10.55095/CesRadiol2025/028
The prevalence of adnexal masses leads to a substantial clinical burden in the areas of pathology, surgery, and diagnostic imaging. Ovarian-Adnexal-Reporting-and-Data System "O-RADS™" MRI, is an acronym for an O-RADSTM. It will serve as a quality assurance tool for risk stratification classification of adnexal lesions, improving communication between the referring and interpreting staff with a dependable method to distinguish between a benign and a malignant adnexal mass.
