Avatar n tn I had an MRI came back with fluid in adnexa and smallnodules in soft tissue on front of bladder one in culde sac and one on bowel. I have no symptoms this finding was incidental. Dr. feels if it is a cancer that it is an ealy catch as there are no symptoms but GYN oncologist wants a CT first before seeing me . Is this because they think ithas spread or just to get a better view. Anyone had these findings with a good outcome?
Avatar n tn When I asked her what that meant she said a blockage/narrowing of the small bowels. My question is what exactly does that mean??
Avatar f tn Please note that upper endoscopy covers only esophagus, stomach, and beginning of small bowel and lower endoscopy (colonoscopy) covers only large bowel and end of small bowel. To evaluate remainder of small bowel, consider capsule endoscopy, or alternatively CT or MRI enterography.
Avatar n tn Severe mesenteric adenopathy and mild retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy. This is associated with thickened loops of small bowel, primarily ileum, worst at the terminal ileum. The primary differential is small bowel lymphoma and lymphoma related abdominal adenopathy.
396332 tn?1320003615 If the doctor thinks you are having problems with your rectum, large intestine, lower small intestine, they can do a colonoscopy. A CT scan of the abdomen also looks at many of these organs and other organs too (like the appendix).
Avatar f tn Docs nurse this morning, with the results of the MRI of my liver. Abnormalities of the liver; so I am scheduled for an Ultra-Sound tomorrow afternoon. When the liver lesions were first discovered on my CT Scan last June, and again when the Tech did my Brain, Thoracic & Cervical Spine MRI's and noted enhancement in the left lobe of the liver, my G.I.
Avatar n tn Thickening of the rectal wall, nonspecific in appearance. The possibility of proctitis must be considered. Direct examination may be appropriate. There is some free fluid in the pelvis Also, there is a low-density focus in the anterior aspect of the right kidney likely representing a small cyst and small low -density lesions in the left kidney, likely representing cysts. There is no retroperitoneal adenopathy. The GI tract appears normal.

Avatar f tn Forgot to mention, I did get into an argument as they tried to blame it on IBS, yet I had an MRI scan of my bowel and proved there was no abnormality. I don't have any issues with that side of things either. It's just the severity of pain is worsening in my lower right side and often under my ribcage.
Avatar f tn CT enterography is a special CT scan that provides better images of the small bowel. This test has replaced barium X-rays in many medical centers. •Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). An MRI scanner uses a magnetic field and radio waves to create detailed images of organs and tissues. MRI is particularly useful for evaluating a fistula around the anal area (pelvic MRI) or the small intestine (MR enterography). •Capsule endoscopy. For this test, you swallow a capsule that has a camera in it.
543435 tn?1282242679 It looks like an MRI certainly couldn't hurt to get more of a good look? I don't know the differences between CT's and MRI's, where one is better than the other? But since you are still in pain, they need to figure out why? The other things you mentioned, on your spleen and the lymph nodes. Did the doctor say that these will cause pain too? and did he say whether they need to be removed? I guess that is what your surgery consult is for? When do you go for the consult and MRI?
Avatar m tn m suffering every day with pain, and sick of having operations for bowel obstructions, I feel every day is now a real struggle, I had a MRI scan, and she said there was no obstruction which could suggest anything causing Slow transit,so she couldn't take a bad part of my bowel away as it's literally .slow transit right through after I has sit marker tests, 5 days later all 50 was still in my large intestine. and a test where I was diagnosed with slow transit in my small bowel.
2158237 tn?1336756535 m not a radiologist either, but in looking at your scan and the report there is mention of a markedly redundant colon. This is a finding many people have and it's probably something you were born with. It means a section of your colon (in your case around the area of the sigmoid colon) is longer than what is typically considered normal. Many people with this condition descibe having 'constipation' issues. Others, although finding they have a redundant colon, have no issues at all.
Avatar n tn During this time, I have had countless ultrasounds (last ultrasound was performed in March of this year), 2 CT scans (last CT scan was performed in May of this year) and an MRI (although the MRI was a while back). I also have had an upper endoscopy and a colonoscopy. And, lots of bloodwork. My symptoms include: chronic bloating, twinges of pain near my right ovary, irregular bowel movements, back pain, regular fatigue. I am still very concerned about the prospect of having ovarian cancer.
Avatar m tn Is it normal to have that much bowel gas that the abdominal aorta cannot be seen. I still have pains in my abdomen. Should I ask for a MRI or CT scan to further investigate my pain? I also had a Hida Scan of my gallbladder with the results being 90% ejection fraction rate at 30 minutes, and I am 43 years old. Thanks in advance...
Avatar n tn My husband has been experiencing fevers, headaches, severe pain in hips and leg for 6+months. He has had every test we know of - bloodwork, mri of brain, ct of abdomen, pelvic, bone marrow aspiratin, endoscopy, colonoscopy, small bowel biopsies, and he is progressively getting worse! The found a soft tissue mass on ct scan that was there 2 years ago but has not grown - went into colon and could not see it.
Avatar f tn CT scan of abdomen on Jan 11th (the doctors told us it was normal except his mesenteric lymph nodes were inflammed), MRI of his hip, US of his abdomen and scrotum (looking for a hernia), Upper GI with small bowel follow through and a bone scan. The doctors have told us that these tests have been normal as well as his blood work. The radiologist reading the Upper GI told us that his bowel had not formed like ours would have and he was marking that as an incidental finding.
Avatar f tn Since these hernias are in close proximity to the pubic area CT scan of the pelvis may be more helpful. If you are still concerned it is best to discuss your concerns with your treating doctor. I hope it helps. Take care!
Avatar f tn i went for a mri and i results come back that i have a small inferior transmural inferact with a small overlying thrombus , now i know that the thrombosis is a blood clot as i am having to have that treated but what does the rest mean
