The article presents a case study of an old woman diagnosed with back pain and fever. The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination of the patient shows inflammatory changes in her adjacent epidural space and paraspinal soft tissues. It notes that she did not have obvious cortical destruction that usually has bacterial osteomyelitis.

The article describes the clinical case of a 48-year-old woman who complained of diplopia, headaches and papilledema. Computed tomography on the patient revealed bilateral enlargement of the lateral, third and fourth ventricles and effacement of the sulci, while her magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed moderate and diffuse ventricular enlargement. Laboratory and clinical findings on the patient led to the diagnosis of cysticercosis involving the cerebral ventricles and spinal meninges.

The article describes the case of a ten-month old girl presenting with episodic vomiting and unresponsiveness. Assessment of the airway, breathing, and circulation was performed. Mental state fluctuated although there was no evident seizure activity or obvious toxidrome. Extraction of cerebrospinal fluid by means of lumbar puncture and magnetic resonance imaging of the head was conducted. Gastrointestinal causes of unresponsiveness were considered as well as the neurologic causes of vomiting.

The article describes the case of a seven-year old pediatric patient with a complex cyst in the kidney. When the patient was four months old, he was diagnosed with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). Annual magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at age 6.5 showed a complex cyst in the left kidney. At age seven, the patient's medications include atenolol, gabapentin, enalapril, lamotrigine and valproic acid. MRI of the kidney showed no increase in the cyst.

The article discusses the medical case of a 36-year-old man who was admitted in a neurology clinic with confusion, memory loss and headaches. The medical history of the patient is provided. Results of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), routine laboratory tests and cerebrospinal fluid analysis are discussed. The article also discussed the differential diagnosis, including Cogan's syndrome, lyme disease and Whipple's disease. A discussion on the pathophysiology of Susac's syndrome is given.

The article describes the case of a woman who complained of having a mass in her right breast. Invasive ductal carcinoma was diagnosed after magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and pathological examination of the mass tissue. The left breast of the patient remained normal. A review of the core-biopsy specimens revealed the solid growth pattern of the tumor while immunohistochemical tests show that tumor cells have been negative for estrogen-receptor and progesterone-receptor proteins.
