Role of CT in Trauma
Cryopreservation in Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) is a crucial technique used to freeze and store eggs, sperm, or embryos for future use. It allows individuals or couples to preserve fertility, especially before medical treatments like chemotherapy or for those delaying parenthood. The process involves rapid freezing to protect the cells from damage. Vitrification, a newer method, has significantly improved survival rates of frozen embryos and eggs. Cryopreservation also offers flexibility in ART cycles, improving the chances of successful pregnancies over time.
About the Speaker
Dr. Praveen Wali
Senior Consultant Radiologist, Manipal Hospitals, Bengaluru
Dr. Praveen Wali is a Consultant - Radiologist at Manipal Hospitals, Bangalore. He received his medical degree from Rajiv Gandhi University of Medical Sciences, India and then went on to complete a Post-graduation in Radiology. In 2018, he earned an EDIR (European Diploma in Radiology — European College of Radiology). He has researched and published Sporadic hepatogastric fistula – A rare complication of liver abscess, Retroclival ecchordosis physaliphora, Intramedullary osteosclerosis of right femur confirmed on triphasic bone SPECT/CT in a patient with equivocal radiological features. Original research conducted at P.D.Hinduja Hospital and Research Centre, Mumbai as part of the curriculum of the DNB degree. The work titled “Role of MRI in response evaluation to Chemotherapy in Osteosarcoma and Ewings sarcoma” aimed to assess post-chemotherapy changes in sarcoma’s using MRI DWI/DCE sequences in comparison with PET/CT and Histopathology.
Upcoming Case Discussions
Endometriosis- Updates
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological condition where endometrial-like tissue grows outside the uterus, causing pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, and infertility. The ectopic tissue responds to hormonal changes, leading to inflammation, adhesions, and scarring. Diagnosis is based on clinical symptoms, imaging (ultrasound, MRI), and confirmed by laparoscopy with biopsy. Treatment includes NSAIDs, hormonal therapy (OCPs, progestins, GnRH analogs), and surgical excision for severe cases. Fertility treatments like IVF may be needed. While not curable, early diagnosis and management can relieve symptoms and improve quality of life.
Case-Based Approach to Managing GI Malignancies
A Case-Based Approach to managing gastrointestinal (GI) malignancies involves applying a personalized, patient-centered strategy using specific case details to guide treatment decisions. It emphasizes a multidisciplinary team approach, where oncologists, surgeons, pathologists, and radiologists collaborate to determine the best course of action based on tumor type, stage, and patient factors. This method allows for tailored treatment plans, integrating surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and targeted therapies to optimize outcomes. By discussing individual cases, this approach also aids in identifying potential challenges and refining management protocols to improve patient care.
Acne: Disorders and Treatment Approaches
Acne is a common dermatological condition caused by clogged pores, excess sebum production, bacterial growth, and inflammation. It can manifest as blackheads, whiteheads, papules, pustules, or cysts, often leading to scarring if untreated. Various factors, including hormonal changes, diet, stress, and genetics, influence its severity. Treatment approaches range from topical and oral medications, such as retinoids, antibiotics, and hormonal therapy, to advanced procedures like chemical peels and laser therapy. A personalized skincare regimen, along with lifestyle modifications, plays a crucial role in managing and preventing acne.
Cardiac Rehabilitation
Cardiac rehabilitation is a structured program designed to improve cardiovascular health after heart-related conditions such as heart attacks, heart failure, or surgeries like bypass or stenting. It includes supervised exercise, heart-healthy lifestyle education, nutrition counseling, stress management, and medication guidance. The goal is to enhance heart function, reduce the risk of future heart problems, and improve overall well-being. A multidisciplinary team, including doctors, physiotherapists, and dietitians, tailors the program to each patient’s needs. Regular participation in cardiac rehab lowers mortality rates, prevents hospital readmissions, and promotes long-term cardiovascular health, making it an essential part of heart disease recovery.
Role of Telemedicine in Modern Healthcare
Telemedicine plays a crucial role in modern healthcare by enabling remote consultations, reducing the need for in-person visits, and improving access to medical expertise. It enhances patient care through real-time diagnosis, chronic disease management, and mental health support. By integrating AI and digital health technologies, telemedicine streamlines workflows and optimizes healthcare delivery. It is especially beneficial in rural and underserved areas, bridging gaps in specialist care. As technology advances, telemedicine continues to revolutionize healthcare, making it more efficient, accessible, and patient-centered.
