Inferior Vena Cava Filter Strut Penetration into the Vertebral Column: A Case of 10-Year Clinical Follow Up
The rate of vena cava (IVC) filter placement has increased over the past decade, especially in the orthopaedic trauma patient population. With the increasing use of IVC filters, radiologists and referring clinicians must be familiar with potential complications. (Source: Current Problems in Diagnostic Radiology)

Mid-Cavity Variant Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy —Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) is a rare acute coronary syndrome characterized by transient left ventricular dysfunction. Typical findings include apical and mid-segment wall motion abnormalities in a nonvascular distribution.1 The relative compensatory hyper-contractility of the basal segment may cause the heart to take on the appearance of a Japanese octopus trap for which the condition is named.2 Other patterns of involvement have been described, including mid-cavity variant TCM, where wall motion abnormalities are isolated to the mid-cavity with apical sparing.

How to Diagnose Enchondroma, Bone Infarct, and Chondrosarcoma
Enchondromas are among the most common benign tumors seen in the skeleton. They are encountered frequently in routine clinical practice. The purpose of this review is to help radiologists confidently diagnose enchondroma and distinguish it from other entities, such as bone infarct, bone graft, and low-grade chondrosarcoma.

Comparing the Performances of Magnetic Resonance Imaging Size vs Pharmacokinetic Parameters to Predict Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy and Survival in Patients With Breast Cancer
To compare the value of dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging-pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters vs tumor volume in predicting breast cancer neoadjuvant chemotherapy response (NACR) and patient survival. (Source: Current Problems in Diagnostic Radiology)

Angiomyolipoma of the Kidneys: Current Perspectives and Challenges in Diagnostic Imaging and Image-Guided Therapy
Angiomyolipomas (AML) are benign tumors of the kidneys frequently encountered in radiologic practice in large tertiary centers. In comparison to renal cell carcinomas (RCC), AML are seldom treated unless they are large, undergo malignant transformation or develop complications like acute hemorrhage. The common garden triphasic (classic) AML is an easy diagnosis, however, some variants lack macroscopic fat in which case the radiologic differentiation from RCC becomes challenging. Several imaging features, both qualitative and quantitative, have been described in differentiating the 2 entities. (Source: Current Problems in Diagnostic Radiology)

A Comparison of Neuroradiology and Pediatric Radiology Job Boards
ACR workforce surveys have suggested progressive recovery in the number of available jobs for radiologists over the past several years. The purpose of this study was to ascertain the status of jobs available in diagnostic radiology as well as to analyze the content of the job boards of general radiology and subspecialty societies with the intent of uncovering differences in posting preferences to better steer job seekers.
