Barium esophagogram in various esophageal diseases: A pictorial essay
Uma Debi, Madhurima Sharma, Lokesh Singh, Anindita SinhaIndian Journal of Radiology and Imaging 2019 29(2):141-154 Recent years have seen a decline in number of barium procedures due to wider availability of cross sectional imaging modalities. Though use of barium esophagography/barium swallow has decreased in day to day clinical practice, it still remains a valuable test for structural and functional evaluation of esophagus. It can be performed as single or double contrast examination or as a multiphasic examination comprising upright double contrast views followed by prone single contrast views. This pictorial essay dem...

Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor (GIST) from esophagus to anorectum & #8211; diagnosis, response evaluation and surveillance on computed tomography (CT) scan
Sushil N Panbude, Suman K Ankathi, Anant T Ramaswamy, Avanish P SaklaniIndian Journal of Radiology and Imaging 2019 29(2):133-140 Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) are the most common non epithelial tumor of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. They arise from interstitial cells of Cajal present in the myenteric plexus. They can also arise outside the GI tract from mesentery, retro peritoneum and omentum. With the advent of new targeted molecular therapy c- tyrosine kinase inhibitor (Imatinib), it has become important to differentiate between response and pseudo-progression of the disease as response evaluation criteria f...

Congenital biotinidase deficiency & #8211; MRI findings in two cases
Rahul S Ranjan, Sunil Taneja, Anil Singh, Vikas GuptaIndian Journal of Radiology and Imaging 2019 29(1):99-103 Congenital biotinidase deficiency is a rare inborn error of metabolism that most commonly presents in infantile age group. Diffusion changes on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are sparsely described in the literature. We are presenting diffusion-weighted MRI findings in two confirmed cases of congenital biotinidase deficiency in infantile age group with review of literature.

Ultrasonography and X-Ray guided drain placement to evacuate a pneumopericardium/pneumomediastinum in a 1-day-old infant
Ambarish P Bhat, Ashwin Pimpalwar, Peter C Dyke IIIndian Journal of Radiology and Imaging 2019 29(1):94-97 Ultrasonographic (US) guided procedures have wide range of application in the abdomen and pelvis, however their role is somewhat limited in the chest due to complete reflection of the ultrasound beam by the air in the lungs, preventing the direct imaging of the tissues deep to the air-sound interface. Most of the chest procedures, other than the exception of thoracentesis, rely on the use of CT (computed tomography) scan. The disadvantages of using CT scan is the cost, lack of portability, and most importantly the ra...

A rare case of neonatal mastauxe: Case report
Bhumika Suthar, Kanishka AggarwalIndian Journal of Radiology and Imaging 2019 29(1):89-93 Neonatal breast enlargements have varying number of presentations on imaging and these have been underreported in the literature. Our case report profiles a 2-week-old female who presented with a history of bilateral breast enlargement with redness and clear, non-bloody, milk-like discharge, who was clinically diagnosed and managed for neonatal mastitis, which was actually a neonatal breast enlargement only. Awareness on neonatal breast enlargement that can be just physiological without any associated mastitis or inflammatory/infecti...

Coronary artery air embolism complicating a CT-guided percutaneous lung biopsy
We present an incidence of symptomatic air embolism into the right coronary artery during a percutaneous CT-guided lung biopsy that was successfully recognized during the procedure and managed accordingly. An active search for this complication should be made when the patient deteriorates on table and the usual complications (pneumothorax, vasovagal shock, etc.) are ruled out, as immediate resuscitative measures could be life-saving.
