El hígado es el principal sitio de almacenamiento de hierro en humanos, y la concentración de hierro en el hígado se correlaciona estrechamente con las reservas de hierro en todo el cuerpo. La técnica de resonancia magnética (MR) es capaz de separar las señales de agua y grasa para cuantificar la infiltración de hierro y grasa en el hígado. Esto permite obtener una mejor cuantificación del hierro y observar la relación que existe con el índice de masa corporal (IMC). En este trabajo se propone una medición de acuerdo a lo propuesto por la divisón anatomica por Couinaud. Read More

The lower GI study with water soluble contrast, is used to evaluate the remnant colon. The population to study includes patient with anorectal malformation, stenosis due to necrotizing enterocolitis, bowel resections or to plan the ostomy closure.
There are scarce adverse effects reported in the literature.

Case: We present a 7-month-old boy with operated cardiopathy and the prior story of necrotizing enterocolitis with bowel perforation a few days after the birth, with surgical intervention resolution. By the time of the study, our patient had ileostomy and colostomy in plan of reconnection, for that reason, the GI study was planned.
The patient was lying down face up in the table. Plane X Ray of the abdomen was taken as a first move of the examination (normal air distribution, no abnormal radiopacities). Then a probe with a balloon was introduced in to the distal ostomy and the balloon was inflated with 5 ml of air to prevent the loose of the probe. A syringe of 20 ml was connected, and the solution was injected (1/3 ml Triyosom GI* and 2/3 ml water) with a moderated hydrostatic pressure. During the injection fluoroscopy was given and images of the distal colon were seen. No fistulas or loose of contrast was evidenced, neither contrast out of anus was seen, as a result of stenosis in that point. We emptied the distal colon by taking out the contrast.
3 hours after the practice the patient started vomiting, abdominal distention and signs of sepsis. He was admitted at the emergency. Finally, he died 6 hours after the GI study had been performed. Analytic results of the blood: 2/2 positive to Gram Negative. Autopsy informed: no GI signs of bacterial translocation.

Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is the designation given to a spectrum of structural changes in the developing hip. Ultrasound is the preferred imaging method for screening this condition in newborns and children under 1 year old. Pubofemoral distance (PFD) has been proposed as a new screening method for developmental dysplasia of the hip. The aim of this study is to assess the accuracy of PFD for developmental dysplasia of the hip using the Graf method as reference standard. Read More

Los problemas en el desarrollo del lenguaje se han incrementado en anios recientes, se estima que solo en Mexico el siete por ciento de los ninios presenta alteraciones del lenguaje. La caracterizacion de los valores de ADC y FA asociados al area de Broca y Wernicke propuestas por el modelo clasico pueden permitir en un mediano plazo detectar anomalias en el sistema del lenguaje pudiendose utilizar para un diagnostico temprano. Por esta razon nuestro primer objetivo es caracterizar ambos parametros en pacientes sanos que permita establecer valores de control. Read More
