Inguinoscrotal Pathology on Computed Tomography: An Alternative Perspective
Computed tomography (CT) is not the imaging technique of choice to assess inguinoscrotal pathology, as magnetic resonance or ultrasonography have superior soft tissue contrast resolution and do not involve gonadal exposure to ionizing radiation. However, testicular and inguinoscrotal pathology may be found both as an extension of intra-abdominal processes or incidentally on CT scans requested for other reasons. CT also plays a role in the evaluation of testicular injury when associated to pelvic trauma and in perineal infections with scrotal extension. (Source: Canadian Association of Radiologists Journal)

Imaging of the Painful Hip Arthroplasty
The incidence of complications following total hip arthroplasty is low, but due to the frequency of the procedure, they are quite commonly encountered and require appropriate investigation. Complications include aseptic loosening, infection, foreign body granulomatosis (osteolysis), adverse reactions to metal debris, periprosthetic fracture, heterotopic ossification, hardware failure, and a range of soft tissue complications, all of which may result in pain. Relevant imaging findings are illustrated and the role of various imaging modalities is reviewed. (Source: Canadian Association of Radiologists Journal)

Normal Magnetic Resonance Imaging Anatomy of the Capsular Ligamentous Supporting Structures of the Knee
Recognition of the normal magnetic resonance (MR) imaging appearances of the capsular ligaments of the knee is of great importance. These ligaments contribute to stability of the knee joint and are frequently injured. In this article, we describe the normal MR imaging anatomy of the capsular ligaments of the knee including the lateral and medial collateral ligamentous complexes, the extensor mechanism, and the supporting ligamentous structures of the proximal tibiofibular joint. Normal MR imaging findings and important anatomic variants of the neurovascular structures of the knee are also described. (Source: Canadian Assoc...

Frequency and Determinants of a Short-Interval Follow-up Recommendation After an Abnormal Screening Mammogram
After imaging assessment of an abnormal screening mammogram, a follow-up examination 6  months later is recommended to some women. Our aim was to identify which characteristics of lesions, women, and physicians are associated to such short-interval follow-up recommendation in the Quebec Breast Cancer Screening Program.

Imaging Findings in Sensorineural Hearing Loss: A Pictorial Essay
Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is a common presenting complaint, particularly in the aging population [1] and can be caused by a wide range of pathologies affecting the cochlea, cranial nerve VIII, and the central auditory pathway. The central auditory pathway includes the bony and membranous labyrinth, the internal auditory canal (IAC), the cerebellopontine angle (CPA), the brain stem, the thalamus, and the temporal lobe.
