Challenge yourself with our Body Case Review from Dr. Mahan Mathur!

Join Dr. Mahan Mathur (Yale School of Medicine) as he reviews a series of high-yield Body cases and the imaging features he looks for to make his diagnosis. Read alongside him as he provides essential interpretation pearls and pitfalls on these cases, which will help you gain confidence in making these decisions in your own practice.

Listen to his advice on the most helpful MR and CT imaging sequences to use & when to use them, and his process to narrow down a diagnosis by ruling out differentials and examining all of the organs in the sequences. In addition, he seamlessly weaves in a review of the anatomy and spaces within the abdomen and showcases why using multiple sequences to determine the histology is crucial to making a diagnosis. Dr. Mathur also includes tips on how he rules out other possible diagnoses and shares reporting suggestions for certain diagnoses.

Each case includes helpful breakdowns of CT and MR findings, key teaching points, and some best practices for imaging rationale, indications, optimal imaging protocols, and reporting.

Test yourself to determine:

Whether abdominal pain is due to tuberculous peritonitis, pseudomyxoma peritonei, encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis, or barium peritonitis
Is an exophytic mass an adenocarcinoma, leiomyoma, paraganglioma, or squamous cell carcinoma?
Is a patient’s pelvic pain caused by a tubo-ovarian abscess (TOA), cystic adenomyoma, cellular leiomyoma, or hematosalpinx?
Is an enlarging renal mass renal medullary carcinoma, clear cell RCC, leiomyoma, or hemangioma?
…and more!

Case Review Overview

Expert Case Reviews offer a high yield, case-focused learning module that will help you gain confidence interpreting advanced imaging cases.

Read alongside Radiology mentors who want to help you fine-tune your search patterns and work through your list of differential diagnoses.

How to navigate each Case topic:

Test Yourself – Before starting the video, launch the DICOM study and complete your independent review of the case in our diagnostic web viewer.
Read alongside Dr. Mathur – Keep the DICOM study open while you watch Dr. Mathur review the case. We suggest popping the DICOM viewer open in a new window and viewing side by side with the video on your screen.

Review at your own pace – Utilize the video player features to pause, rewind, and slow down the video to work through the case at your own pace.

After you’re done, check out these additional Gastrointestinal/Abdomen Mastery Courses for further in-depth case review:

Course materials were developed from Dr. Mathur’s Case Review Live webinar in June 2020. The recorded session has been converted into this on-demand, microlearning Radiology CME Course that you can work through on your own time!
