Abstract

Human hydatid cyst disease is an international public health issue that particularly affects the developing countries. In this article, we discuss the epidemiology of hydatid disease in third world countries, the life cycle of echinococcus granulosus and how to make the clinical diagnosis of the disease, including laboratory tests and imaging modalities as well as uncommon presentation of this entity that we have encountered at the American University of Beirut Medical Center (AUBMC). We emphasize on the new World Health Organization classification of hepatic echinococcosis with examples from our clinical practice at AUBMC, and finally we describe the treatment, including medical and interventional therapies.

Neu im Fachgebiet Radiologie

Hölzerner Fremdkörper in der Orbita? Zuerst eine CT!

Besteht der Verdacht, dass ein Fremdkörper aus Holz in den Orbitalraum eingedrungen ist, spielt die Bildgebung eine entscheidende diagnostische Rolle. Was von CT und MRT zu erwarten ist, hat ein chinesisches Radiologenteam untersucht.

Diagnostik von Rippenfrakturen: KI schlägt Radiologen

Mensch gegen Maschine: Beim Erkennen von Rippenfrakturen in Röntgen- und CT-Aufnahmen entschied sich dieses Duell zugunsten der künstlichen Intelligenz (KI). Die Algorithmen zeigten eine höhere Sensitivität als ihre menschlichen Kollegen.

Ärztinnen überholen Ärzte bei Praxisgründungen

Bei Praxisgründungen haben inzwischen die Frauen deutlich die Nase vorn: Seit zehn Jahren wagen laut apoBank mehr Ärztinnen als Ärzte den Schritt in die Selbstständigkeit. In puncto Finanzierung sind sie aber vorsichtiger als die männlichen Kollegen.

Ambulante Behandlung darf länger dauern als stationäre

Ambulante Behandlungen haben Vorrang vor stationären - auch wenn diese läner dauern. Das hat das Bundessozialgericht klargestellt. Konkret ging es um Liposuktionen der Ober- und Unterschenkel.
