Mashup Score: 30
OBJECTIVE. This article reviews the pattern of anastomotic leak after robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALRP) on MDCT cystography with multiplanar reformatting and 3D display and discusses key surgical procedures to explain intraperitoneal leak and the incidence and clinical significance of anastomotic leak. CONCLUSION. RALRP is a minimally invasive surgery for localized prostate cancer, and its use has increased recently. Intraperitoneal extension of vesicourethral anastomotic leak after RALRP can occur, which is not associated with radical retropubic prostatectomy. MDCT cystography is a fast and accurate method for detection and evaluation of the extent of anastomotic leak after RALRP.

Mashup Score: 2Screening for Preclinical Disease: Test and Disease Characteristics : American Journal of Roentgenology : Vol. 179, No. 4 (AJR) - 1 year(s) ago
Screening is the application of a test to detect a potential disease or condition in an individual who has no known signs or symptoms of that disease or condition [1]. In general, screening has two major objectives. One is the early detection of disease at a point when treatment is more effective, less expensive, or both. Here, the implicit assumption underlying the concept of screening is…
