The Morel-Lavallée lesion (MLL) is an uncommon, traumatic internal degloving injury of the soft tissues and the fascia. The MLLs are often misdiagnosed or delayed in being diagnosed due to the severity of other injuries from an accident. Sonography and/or magnetic resonance imaging may be used to confirm the diagnosis. After the MLL is diagnosed, treatment options vary from conservative options to surgical methods depending on the chronicity of the lesion. The case study presented occurs in the most common site for the injury, the hip and pelvis.

Occupational burnout has been documented among health care workers; however, there has been limited research investigating burnout among sonographers. The aim of this study was to measure burnout among a cohort of sonographers within New York City. 70 participants completed a questionnaire online. The questionnaire comprised 2 sections: demographic questions and the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory (OLBI). The OLBI was used to assess 2 core dimensions of burnout: exhaustion and disengagement. The data were analyzed descriptively with frequencies, percentages, mean values, and standard deviations. The majority (84.3%) of the participants worked in a hospital setting. A moderate to high burnout score was found for 81.4% of the participants. In the separate dimensions of burnout, 84.3% scored moderate to high on exhaustion, and 76.6% scored moderate to high on disengagement. Occupational burnout in health care settings is a serious problem with detrimental consequences. Most of this cohort of 70 sonographers working in New York City were experiencing a moderate to high level of burnout. Development of educational programs and interventions can be considered a potential solution for addressing prevention of sonographer burnout.

The objective of this study is to demonstrate the sonographic and computed tomographic features of venous pseudoaneurysms and show the difference between true and false venous aneurysms and arterial pseudoaneurysms. Likewise, it was important to provide a historical context based on a literature review of vascular aneurysms and pseudoaneurysms, emphasizing venous pseudoaneurysms. Clinical cases are presented for context, and the vascular examinations were performed utilizing a General Electric (GE) Logiq Fortis or Logiq S8 scanners with a broad-band linear-array transducer (L2-9). Computed tomography (CT) with contrast was performed on a GE Revolution Maxima 64-slice CT scanner with 100 mL Omnipaque-350 as a contrast agent. The three-dimensional (3D) axial, sagittal, and coronal reconstructions were made with the Philips IntelliSpace software. Levels of evidence are provided based on a literature search of relevant publications using the National Library of Medicine, PubMed, and Google Books. Different types of venous pseudoaneurysms, venous aneurysms, and arterial pseudoaneurysm diagnosed by duplex sonography and CT were presented. An extensive historical and literature review was conducted based on publications from the 18th to 21st centuries. Venous pseudoaneurysms are uncommon. Most of them are iatrogenic and are usually found as a complication of repetitive venipuncture in patients receiving hemodialysis with arteriovenous fistulas. In rare cases, venous pseudoaneurysms occur spontaneously.
本研究旨在展示静脉假性动脉瘤的声像图和计算机断层扫描特征，并显示真假静脉动脉瘤和动脉假性动脉瘤之间的区别。同样，根据血管动脉瘤和假性动脉瘤的文献综述提供历史背景也很重要，重点是静脉假性动脉瘤。临床病例的背景介绍和血管检查均使用通用电气（GE）Logiq Fortis 或 Logiq S8 扫描仪和宽波段线性阵列换能器（L2-9）进行。使用造影剂的计算机断层扫描（CT）是在 GE Revolution Maxima 64 层 CT 扫描仪上进行的，造影剂为 100 mL Omnipaque-350。使用飞利浦 IntelliSpace 软件进行三维（3D）轴位、矢状位和冠状位重建。证据等级是根据使用美国国家医学图书馆、PubMed 和 Google Books 对相关出版物进行文献检索后得出的。介绍了通过双工超声和 CT 诊断出的不同类型的静脉假性动脉瘤、静脉动脉瘤和动脉假性动脉瘤。根据 18 世纪至 21 世纪的出版物进行了广泛的历史和文献综述。静脉假性动脉瘤并不常见。大多数静脉假性动脉瘤是先天性的，通常是接受血液透析的动静脉瘘患者重复静脉穿刺的并发症。在极少数情况下，静脉假性动脉瘤会自发发生。

Cesarean section (C-section) ectopic pregnancies (CSEPs) refer to the implantation of an embryo in the fibrous scar tissue from a previous cesarean section. C-section ectopic pregnancies pose a significant risk for uterine rupture and maternal morbidity, therefore early identification is imperative. Early detection and diagnosis of a CSEP can be difficult and follow-up imaging is often recommended. Recurrence in CSEPs may be observed, and this case study confirms the clinical importance of obtaining patient history in addition to a well-visualized pelvic sonogram.

This study aimed to determine the relationship between emotional intelligence (EI) and grade point average (GPA) in a cohort of sonography (DMS) or radiography (RT) students. Furthermore, this study explored whether an EI model, such as the Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (TEIQue), demonstrated a significant association with GPA and could potentially be used as a part of the admission process. The TEIQue questionnaire that collected participants’ EI and demographic data was administered to students in both educational programs. Data were obtained at the beginning of each respective program and 1 year later. Students’ GPA was examined over three college semesters. In total, 26 participants enrolled. This cohort included 10 DMS and 16 RT students enrolled for an associate’s degree in an applied sciences program within a community college. No significant relationship was observed between academic GPA and global EI, as well as three subscales of trait EI. Global trait EI for DMS ( P = .35) and RT students ( P = .05) demonstrated nonsignificant relationships with students’ GPAs, respectively. These results demonstrated that there was no significant relationship between noncognitive variables, such as EI, among DMS or RT students and academic GPA. Further studies should investigate whether these findings were similar to those in other diagnostic imaging programs.
本研究旨在确定一批超声造影（DMS）或放射造影（RT）学生的情商（EI）与平均学分绩点（GPA）之间的关系。此外，本研究还探讨了特质情商问卷（TEIQue）等情商模型是否与平均学分绩点（GPA）有显著关联，以及是否有可能作为录取过程的一部分。TEIQue 问卷收集了参与者的情商和人口统计学数据，并对两个教育项目的学生进行了问卷调查。数据分别在课程开始时和一年后获得。对学生在三个大学学期的平均学分绩点（GPA）进行了调查。共有 26 名学员报名参加。这批学生中包括 10 名 DMS 和 16 名 RT 学生，他们在一所社区学院的应用科学专业攻读副学士学位。在学习成绩 GPA 和总体 EI 以及特质 EI 的三个分量表之间没有观察到明显的关系。DMS学生（P = .35）和RT学生（P = .05）的总体特质EI分别与学生的GPA没有明显关系。这些结果表明，DMS 和 RT 学生的 EI 等非认知变量与学业 GPA 之间没有显著关系。进一步的研究应该调查这些结果是否与其他影像诊断专业的学生相似。
