Abstract:
Objectives: Pelvis radiographs are usually acquired supine despite standing imaging reflecting functional anatomy. We compared supine and erect radiographic examinations for anatomical features, radiation dose and image quality. Methods: 60 patients underwent pelvis radiography in both supine and erect positions at the same examination appointment. Measures of body mass index and sagittal diameter were obtained. Images were evaluated using visual grading analysis and pelvic tilt was compared. Dose–area product values were recorded and inputted into the CalDose_X software to estimate effective

Abstract:
Low Back Pain (LBP) is a pain condition that attacks the lower part of the spine, caused by injury to muscles or ligaments, common causes include lifting the wrong weight, poor posture, not exercising regularly and so on. One of the radiological examinations to establish the diagnosis of LBP is a radiographic examination of the lumbar spine. In the examination procedure, the radiological examination of the lumbar spine, the patient's position during the examination was arranged to sleep supine on the examination table, while at RSI Purwokerto the examination of the lumbar vertebrae with the ca

ABSTRACT
 Background: The clavicle radiograph is one of the examinations that can diagnose fracture pathology. Radiographic examination of the clavicle generally uses the Antero Posterior (AP) and AP Axial projections 15°-30° cranially. But in fact radiology installations differ in using the position of the patient and the direction of the beam. The purpose of this paper is to determine the radiographic technique of the clavicle in clinical fractures from differences in patient position and beam direction and its effect on the results of the picture.

Introduction: Anterior-posterior (AP) cervical spine X-rays are routine examinations to assess degenerative change, persistent pain and traumatic injuries. Multiple radiosensitive organs lie anteriorly within this anatomical region, increasing the stochastic risk of cancer.

Abstract:
Abstract Background Chylolymphatic cysts are benign pathology in lymphatic vessels due to obstruction in the lymphatic system. Their incidence is still unknown. However, they account for approximately 3 to 9% of all pediatric lymphangiomas. Most of these lesions are asymptomatic and are discovered accidentally. They can be presented with nonspecific abdominal pain, vomiting, and changes in bowel habits. Rarely, chylolymphatic cysts can as intestinal obstruction, volvulus or even torsion.

Abstract:
Abstract Background Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a severe and potentially lethal intestinal disease that occurs almost exclusively in preterm infants. Currently, the diagnosis of NEC is based on clinical and radiographic findings. Utilization of non-invasive biomarkers for early diagnosis is the preferred attitude in most of the diseases. Aim of the Work Measure plasma D-lactate levels in preterm infants diagnosed with NEC in comparison to age-matched controls and also to correlate these levels to severity of intestinal ischemia in these cases. Patients and Methods The current study incl

Abstract:
Abstract Introduction Seed bezoars are a distinct subgroup of phytobezoars, caused by the accumulation of indigestible vegetable or fruit seeds in the intestinal lumen. Intestinal obstruction due to plant seeds is seldom encountered because of their relatively smaller size, and intestinal perforation is even rarer. Case Report We report a case of a 64-year-old hypertensive, diabetic and cardiac patient who came to surgical emergency department with generalized abdominal pain and vomiting for 3 days. She was tachycardiac, tachypneic and hypotensive at the initial presentation. Abdominal examina

Abstract:
Radiological examination of chest by doing X-ray chest is now considered as part of initial screening of the patients. It is a cheap, easily available and cost effective investigation which gives quite important information in the management of clinical patients. Following approach may be recommended for the interpretation of x-ray chest which may be used by trainee doctors appearing for their specialty examination. This approach may be labeled as �chest radiograph assessment using mnemonic� ABCDEFGHI �.1 A. AIRWAY: Use �PIER�. First look for the position of the patient whether supine, erect,
