Sumario:This mage-based series comprises of a quiz pertaining to the identification of salient and important anatomical structures and landmarks expected to be seen at a given level on the computed tomography (CT). The representative image is followed by a series of images showing the examples of different commonly encountered pathological entities that can be seen at this level in a routine clinical practice. Readers are encouraged to identify the highlighted anatomical structures and landmarks in all the images and appreciate the alterations in the appearance of the normal structures resulting from the presence of a pathology. It is expected that this series will assist in improving the confidence of the nuclear physicians in the interpretation of the CT component of the single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET) studies.
