Radioiodine (I-131) Ablation in Outpatient After Total Thyroidectomy for the Differentiated Thyroid Cancer

To evaluate the clinical significance of I-131 ablation in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer. Forty-three postoperative (total thyroidectomy) patients with differentiated thyroid cancer were studied. Thirty-one patients received total thyroidectomy for thyroid cancer (Primary operation group) and 12 patients had total thyroidectomy as a second operation (Reoperation group : subtotal thyroidectomy was performed at first operation for thyroid cancer). All patients received I-131 30 mCi a...

Utility of High-Resolution Ultrasonography by Using Acoustic Coupler in Dermatology

We have described the experience using the acoustic coupler for subcutaneous angiolipoma comprehensively diagnosed in the lower extremity. The feature of ultrasonography (US) image with the acoustic coupler is more clearly depicted, particularly in superficial or near-field location. The usefulness of this procedure has been demonstrated as stableness state, equipped condition, and satisfactory observation for vasculature status due to the low attenuation material as previously described. The au...

Increased Femoral Anteversion Is not Associated with Internal Hip Rotation Gait in Cerebral Palsy

Internal rotation gait (IRG) is a common problem in children with cerebral palsy and increased femoral anteversion (FAV) is assumed to be a main cause. Therefore, femoral derotation osteotomy (FDO) is the current standard to restore regular angles (foot in direction to gait). The purpose of this study was to investigate if there is a correlation between FAV and IRG during stance phase. Clinical, radiological and 3D-gait analysis of 37 patients (24 boys, 13 girls, mean age 14.1 ± 3.2 years) show...

A New Application in Dermatological Ultrasound

As the high-resolution multifrequency transducers and multichannel color Doppler machines have been developed, dermatologic ultrasound imaging has been rapidly growing in recently years [1]. Joint Ultrasonography (US) in psoriasis [2] and hair morphology by US in androgenetic alopecia [3] have been also studied in current dermatologic ultrasound. Now, acoustic coupler, namely SF001 for superficial or proximal observation has been developed [4]. The usefulness of the acoustic coupler, SF-001 has ...
