Radiologists and urologists should bear in mind the possibility of these violations when dealing with patients with a duplex system. Furthermore, patients with congenital urinary tract anomalies may present primarily in adulthood and have an uneventful childhood.

CT-RC proved to be as accurate as CT-IVRC in the diagnosis of AA. CT with rectal contrast alone could be performed in suspected cases of AA particularly in patients with contraindications to intravenous contrast administration.

2D SWE matches Fibroscan’s accuracy but with fewer failures and advantage of real time anatomical guidance, making it a viable alternative especially for obese or ascitic CLD patients

This case report discusses the diagnosis of pediatric ovarian torsion including risk factors, symptoms, imaging modalities, and surgical diagnostics to improve diagnosis and shorten time to treatment. In addition, this case supports the use of laparoscopy for diagnosis of ovarian torsion if indicated by clinical suspicion and supplemental imaging studies.

The association between differentiated thyroid cancer and exposure to ionizing radiation has been well-known since the radioactive fallout of the 20th century [1]. Follow-up consultations after radiotherapy must address three major objectives: the assessment of oncological response, the evaluation of acute or late toxicity to ionizing radiation, and the screening for a second cancer [2]. Surveillance is especially indicated for cases with external irradiation such as patients with a history of cervical, upper mediastinal, craniospinal, or total body radiotherapy, in addition to internal contamination exposures due to nuclear accidents. This risk is limited to the development of differentiated thyroid cancer, namely papillary or follicular types [2]. In fact, the risk is highest for irradiation received before the age of five and decreases with age, becoming non-significant if irradiation takes place after 15 to 20 years of age [3].We report a case of radiation-induced papillary thyroid carcinoma in a 16-year-old adolescent, managed in the Nuclear Medicine Department at Hassan II-Fez University Hospital Center.
