In duration of 11 months (12/1999-10/2000) 22 case of carotidocarvenous fistula (CCF) have been confirmed by angiography. 18 patients were treated by endovascular method with 17 procedures performed with detachable balloons. The remaining case was done using coils. Results of the 18 patients who underwent endovacular methods, caroticocavenous fistulae in 17 patients resolved completely. Two patients needed additional session which likewise showed good results. There is one failed case which is still awaiting for another interventive session.

The outbreak of the lung fluke occurred in Sin Ho - Lai Chau in 1994 and Da Bac - Hoa Binh in 1998. The biological, clinical, epidemiological investigation and X-ray showed that there were more 2000 patients (the morbidity rate: 4%). All patients had a lung lesion in X-ray image... the major signs in X-ray were pulmonary nodules and cavity and pleurocele. It should distinguish the lung fluke and the pulmonary tuberculosis

We detected skeletal lesions on standard radiographies of 44 patients with multiple myeloma treated in B¹ch Mai Hospital during the period from multiple osteolytic lesions were very frequent abnormalities at all sites. Osteopenia was most common, especially in spine (85.1%). Demineralization with compressed cerebral fractures was found in 74.1% of patients. Other common bone lesions were radiographically observed in ribs (75%), skull (72.7%) and pelvis (60%).

Patients with the microbial hepatic abscess in the digestive department of Viet Tiep hospital during 1995-1999 participated to a study. The methods included the clinical examination, hematologic tests, X-ray, ultrasound and pus test. The results have shown that fever: 100%, hepatodynia: 75%, hepatomegaly and hepatodynia: 50%, eye yellow: 50%, positive hepatic shaking: 41%, anemia: 41%, the moderate and severe anemia: 58.2%, leucocyte of 9.1x10g/l: 91.6%, increase of total bilirubine: 50%, plus had a offensive smell suspected due to anaerobic microorganism: 33.34%, 1 focus of abscess: 10 patients; 2 focuses of abscess: 2 patients, the shortest duration of treatment: 5 days and longest duration of treatment: 31 days. The conclusions: the clinical and paraclinical features suggested the microbial hepatic abscess; treatment by high effective antibiotics and needle aspiration of plus; the surgical treatment for cases with many focus of abscess.

Study 66 patients (mean age 45.9 years) diagnosed disseminated pulmonary tuberculosis. Results: patients often were in sub-acute and chronic types (83.3%), and their symptoms begin slowly (81.8%). Suggestive symptoms are afternoon fever, autonomic nervous disorder, crepitant rales in both sides, and combined extrapulmonary tuberculosis. In radiographic imagines, there were expansive lesions (74.2%), usually in the upper lobes, although pleural adhesion (16.7%) and thin border nodules (9.1%) weren’t common but very specific. Common X-ray syndromes are nodule syndrome (100%) and alveolus syndrome (72.7%).

The chemical composition of 56 urinary stone samples was studied by X-ray diffraction at Hue Central Hospital and Hue College Hospital. All of stone contain calcium. The rate of calcium stone was 67.9%, The rate of struvite stone was 3.5%. The rate of calcium stone was 28.6%. The acid uric stone and cystein stone were not found. The rate of crystal in calci oxalate stone was: whewellite 68% ; weddellite 32%. The rate of crystals in stone: whewellite 98.2%; weddellite 46.4%; bassanite 10.7%; calcium glycerophosphate1.8%; magnesium acetate hydrate 1.8%

Study on clinical characteristics, X-ray and tidal volume in 48 patients (mean age: 66.7 ± 7.32) have co-morbid chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and bronchiectasis at Bach Mai Hospital from February to September 2004. Male to female ratio was 15 to 1. 89.6% patients were smoker. 73% of patients have smoked over 15 packs per year. 34 patients (70.8%) had bronchiectasis after 5 years having chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. 23 patients (47.3%) had this condition after 6 to 10 years of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Symptoms were breathing difficulty in 100% patients, barre form thorax in 72.9% patients, change in diaphragm form in plain X-ray in 100% patients. RV,RV/TLC increased by more than 20% SLT in 100% patients. 81.2% patients had disease at degree III, IV

A retrospective study on patients with the liver cancer treated by alcohol injection under X-ray monitoring in the Brabois Hospital + Center for University - Institute in Nancy was carried out to evaluate the advantages, limitations and efficacy of the treatment. The results showed that the advantages were rapid, correct, and easy to inject in to the small tumor and radical treatment. The limitations were to have X-ray with C lamp. This method was only effect in combination with other methods.

Lung paragonimiasis is a disease caused by lung flukes characterized by the migration of a juvenile worm in early stage and the formation of cysts around the worm later on. We report a case of pulmonary paragonimiasis in the childhood causing recurrent haemoptysis and pneumonia. The purpose of this study was to describe the radiological manifestations of pulmonary paragonimiasis on chest X-rays and CT-Scans-Peripheral localized, multisegmental infiltration with pleural thickening of lesion, Focal and infiltrative shadows (10-15mm nodules + masslike consolidation). Bollous inflation (excentric thickening of Cyst wall). CT-scans provide more specific information

From the clinical and laboratory documents of the patients with multiple myeloma, the authors had drawn some conclusions. Most patients are from 45 to 59 years old (60%). The first clinical symptoms often seen are bone pain and anemia. Plasma cell is proliferated (in 93% of cases) and dominates the growth of other blood cells (erythrocytes, leukocytes and thrombocytes). The immuno-electro phoresis X-rays... were found. Bence-Jones protein in the urine was positive in 27% of cases
