What is the chance of recurrence of myoepithelial carcinoma?
Hi doctor,
I had an extraction of two tumors of epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma with a prominent dedifferentiated (high-grade transformation) myoepithelial component extracted from my nasal cavity before three years. MRI scans were performed to look for recurrences. In my previous MRI, I had a perfusion curve showing ascending plateau.
I have significant weight loss for the past seven months. I have occasional nosebleeds with pain. I also have fever, sensitivity, and bleeding in the mouth palate occasionally. Currently, I am taking Iscador P series II injections three times a week, painkillers, and supplements. Please advice.

Will a DICOM X-ray show any fracture in the foot?
Hello doctor,
One week ago I have slipped when walking, fell after hitting the curb, and landed on my right foot in an awkward position from small altitude. I was able to walk with minor to moderate pain, and visited the nearest trauma center in an hour, got an X-ray and cast immobilization, and was diagnosed with fractures in second and third metatarsals. I was told to take antithrombotic medications, avoid putting any load on the feet, and basically, that was all. The feet itself did not hurt for the whole week afterward. Today, I visited a different clinic for a check-up, got another X-ray and a different diagnosis (no fracture in the third metatarsal, but a fracture in cuneiform bone). So, I would like to ask to take a look at DICOM X-ray data from the second clinic and check what bones actually have fractures (because I am quite anxious that something could have been missed), and if there are any indications of recovery. Currently, I am taking delayed-release Acetylsalicylic acid as an antithrombotic, Calcium and D3 Vitamin supplements.

I think few images from my recent scan have not been looked at. Can you have a look?
Hello doctor,
I have been struggling for approximately two years with symptoms such as pulsatile tinnitus, dizziness, vertigo, orthostatic headaches and general fatigue. I had an MRI that showed empty Sella with some herniation of CSF into the pituitary gland area. I have a set of images from a CT angiogram as at the time I was under investigation for some sort of arteriovenous malformation (suspected) but was given the all-clear. The reason for the second opinion is I believe the cause of my symptoms has been missed as the coronal and sagittal images from my recent scan I do not think have been looked at. In my opinion, there seems to be a defect in the left cribriform plate adjacent to an opacified ethmoid air cell. I think this may be causing a CSF flow problem and hence all my symptoms. I have attached a snapshot of the area but please could you look at the coronal and sagittal images?
