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.

Value of Endometrial Echopattem at HCG Administration Day in Predicting IVF Outcome

Endometrial Echopattem at HCG Administration Day in Predicting IVF Outcome {faces}

Background: Assisted reproductive treatment (ART) cycle is an expensive procedure with low implantation and pregnancy rate; therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the predictors of success in these patients.

Objective: The relationship between endometrial echopattern and pregnancy rate was evaluated.

Methods: The endometrial echopattern was analyzed prospectively on the day of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) administration in 280 in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) cycles with 8-14 mm endometrial thickness at Royan institute in 2013-2014. Based on echopattern, three groups were developed: pattern A (Triple line), pattern B (Heterogeneous-echogen) and pattern C (Homogeneous-echogen). Pregnancy rate (PR) was compared between all groups. Data was analyzed using SPSS (v.18, Chicago, IL, USA), and descriptive tests such as Chi-square and analytical tests like logistic regression, for controlling confounder variables like age.

Results: Among 280 patients finally evaluable, the distribution of endometrial echopattern on the day of HCG administration was 127 patients (45.4%) in group A, 98 patients (35%) in group B and 55 patients (19.6%) in group C. The highest PR per transfer pertained to group A (49.6%), and the lowest to group B (32.7%).

Conclusion: The presence of pattern A (Triple line) appears more likely to favor pregnancy. Therefore, ultrasonographic evaluation of endometrial echopattern on the day of HCG administration has prognostic value in clinical settings for predicting implantation in ART cycle
