Interstitial lung diseases are characterized by anatomical distortion of peripheral airways and interstitium, determined by a first stage of alveolitis followed by a stage of fibrosis. The natural history of several interstitial lung diseases is characterized by slow and progressive destruction of alveolarcapillary functional units, often with respiratory failure and death. For their smoldering evolution and non-specificity of symptoms (exertional dyspnea and cough), they may remain undiagnosed and not treated for a long time. Each patient underwent a thorough clinical evaluation including a detailed history and physical examination. The duration of the complaints were noted in each patient. All the patients were made to undergo HRCT scan as the radiological examination after taking an informed consent for the same. Out of total of 40 patients 22(55.0%) patients showed HRCT pattern reflecting UIP and IPF, 8(20.0%) patients showed NSIP, 6(15.0%) patients had HSP as well as 3(7.5%) patients had COP while only 1(2.5%) patient showed changes of RB-ILD. The findings of this study correlate well with many other studies reported in literature.

Internal derangement of knee joint constitutes a major source of morbidity in patients attending orthopedic outpatients department of our hospital. It includes a group of disorders due to disruption of normal functioning of ligaments and menisci of knee joint leading to persistent or intermittent signs and symptoms such as pain, instability, or abnormal mobility of the knee. MRI would be an noninvasive non operator dependent effective modality for early detection of these pathologies and has very high negative predictive value. MRI of knee would save us many unnecessary diagnostic arthroscopy, which is an invasive procedure with associated risks. Fifty patients with clinically suspected internal derangement of knee (37 men, 13 women; mean age 33.2 yrs) were included in this prospective study. They were evaluated with detailed clinical history and clinical examinations and were subsequently subjected to imaging of knee using 1.5 T MRI PHILIPS ACHIEVA MRI machine. Sequences used were axial, sagittal and coronal PD Fat Sat; sagittal, axial and coronal T2 FSE and sagittal T1 FSE. This study included 50 patients with clinical suspicion of internal derangement of knee. Thirty-seven were men and 13 women with mean age of 33.2 years. Acute traumatic injury to knee exceeded the non-traumatic etiology. ACL was the commonest ligament to be injured with complete tear being more common than partial tear. LCL was the commonest ligament to be torn in association with ACL. Indirect signs of ACL injury were evaluated and helped to corroborate the tears. Meniscal injury was common in medial meniscus and predominantly involved the posterior horn. This was also the commonest site of lateral meniscal tear. Certain pattern of associations of injuries was found such as ACL tear with postero-lateral corner injury and O'Donoghue's triad.

The efficacy of measles-mumps-rubella vaccine versus salicylic acid-lactic paint in the treatment of wartsSir, A prospective study was conducted in the dermatology outpatient department of MGM Medical College and Hospital, Aurangabad, from November 2015 to April 2018. A total of 60 patients who were clinically diagnosed with cutaneous warts were included in the study. Pregnant or lactating women, immunocompromised patients or those receiving corticosteroids, patients within 3 months prior/post-vaccination, history of allergy to measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine or hypersensitivity to egg protein or to any ingredient of SAL paint or neomycin (because the vaccine may contain traces of neomycin), patients with meningitis, impairment of central nervous system, genital and perianal warts/facial warts, ulcerated or inflamed warts, leukemia, and other malignant diseases were excluded from the study.

The Objective of this study is to determine the accuracy of the diagnosis of mediastinal masses by Computed Tomography and to correlate its findings with histopathology. This study reviews the variety of the disease processes involving the mediastinum. Emphasis is based on illustrating the specific diagnostic CT features and its correlation with histopathology findings that allow one to distinguish between the different types of mediastinal masses. Total Number of 30 cases referred to the department of Radio-Diagnosis for clinically suspected Mediastinal masses at Teaching and General Hospital over a period of one year were included in the study. In our study, anterior mediastinum was the most commonly involved compartment, followed by superior mediastinum, posterior mediastinum and middle mediastinum. Lymphoma is most common lesion in anterior mediastinum and superior mediastinum, Teratoma in middle mediastinum and Schwannoma in posterior mediastinum. We conclude that computed tomography definitely has a major role to play in the evaluation of a mediastinal mass regarding the compartmental distribution, mass effect upon adjacent structure and provisional diagnosis.

The anorectal fistulas can be inter sphincteric, Trans sphincteric, extra sphincteric or supra sphincteric. Detailed understanding of anorectal anatomy is needed for identification and management of anorectal fistulas. Park's and St James University Hospital classification are used of which the latter gives better details of perianal fistulas. Unenhanced and enhanced MRI helps in identification of primary and secondary tracks, complications like abscesses and hence guides the surgeons to plan appropriate treatment strategy. During the study period, around 30 patients who were diagnosed to have perianal fistula clinically and referred for MR fistulogram to the Department of Radiology were included in the study. In our study, there was significant correlation between the fistulous tracts identified on MRI and the surgical findings. Fistulotomy is the preferred method of management in our institution. And for patients with abscess, abscess drainage is done. Fistulotomy was done in about 24 out of 30 patients which correlated well with the MRI findings for grades III to V. Grade I and II fistulas showed discrepancies in identification. Abscess drainage was also done in 5 patients (8.35%) which were also in accordance with MRI findings.
