Computed tomographic evaluation of pear-shaped bladder.
Computed tomography (CT) was used to distinguish between pelvic lipomatosis and idiopathic inferior vena caval thrombosis as a cause of a pear-shaped bladder seen on intravenous urography. The findings on CT were explicit in explaining the patient's clinical problem.

Value of computerized tomography in evaluation of kidney.
The use of intravenous iodinated contrast material after a preliminary computerized axial tomographic scan of the kidney has been an extremely valuable adjunct in differentiating benign, malignant, and some inflammatory processes. The diagnosis of type of lesion present has been facilitated and allows direction for further diagnosis and therapy.

Pancreatic carcinoma. Survival following detection by ultrasonic scanning.
The survival of 28 patients with pancreatic cancer was studied following initial detection of this malignant neoplasm by ultrasonic scanning. By ultrasound examination, 24 patients had an abnormality, and 21 had a demonstrable mass. Twenty-seven patients are now deceased, and the overall survival ranged from eight days to 24 months (mean, 6.1 months). The results of this study indicate that diagnosis by ultrasonic scanning had no effect on the survival of patients with pancreatic carcinoma.
