Advanced Diagnostic & Interventional Radiology Research Center

COVID-19 pandemic 

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the Radiology Research Center at Tehran University of Medical Sciences continued its research activities despite the challenges posed by the increased demand for CT scans of COVID-19 patients and the necessity of adhering to strict health protocols. This center played a crucial role in improving medical imaging techniques, optimizing diagnostic protocols, and advancing technologies related to CT scan image analysis.

Faculty members, researchers, and staff remained committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of healthcare professionals and patients while actively engaging in imaging data analysis, developing artificial intelligence algorithms for faster disease detection, publishing scientific articles, and presenting their findings at international conferences. These efforts aimed to enhance diagnostic accuracy, improve treatment processes, and alleviate pressure on healthcare systems.

 

Key achievements of the Radiology Research Center during the COVID-19 pandemic include:


✔️ Development and optimization of lung imaging protocols for faster and more accurate COVID-19 diagnosis
✔️ Implementation of artificial intelligence technologies for automated CT scan analysis and reduced diagnosis time
✔️ Publication of high-impact research articles on innovative imaging methods for COVID-19 patients
✔️ Participation in national and international projects focused on COVID-19 diagnosis and patient management

The center remains dedicated to advancing research in medical imaging and continues to contribute as a leading scientific institution in improving the quality of diagnostic and therapeutic services.

 

Some of the center's significant achievements during the pandemic include:

Intra Articular Ganglion Cysts of the Knee

Intra-Articular Ganglion Cysts of the Knee {faces}

➢: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) without contrast is sufficient to diagnose an intra-articular ganglion cyst of the knee. MRI with intravenous contrast may be considered for cysts in the infrapatellar fat pad, which are not a typical presentation.

➢: The current literature supports treating symptomatic cases or those discovered accidently during knee arthroscopy with arthroscopic excision.

➢: Although aspiration of these cysts results in a higher recurrence rate than excision, it is associated with quicker recovery. Thus, aspiration might be chosen as an initial treatment for anyone who would like to avoid surgery or requires a rapid recovery, including professional athletes.

➢: Open excision may be considered for infrapatellar fat pad cysts that are >4.5 cm in size.
