Discovering an image result with higher specificity like the "cable sign" at this time was a surprise!
Basically, the clinical discovery of the "cable sign" generally indicates acute vasa recta ischemia!
But... the crux is, it has long been challenging to make an accurate preoperative imaging diagnosis of acute mesenteric vascular ischemia, with most results being nonspecific.
Therefore, it is often overlooked by doctors, which then leads to the worsening of the disease.
The mortality rate reaches sixty percent!
That is a terrifying figure.
In fact, sometimes, the diagnosis of a patient has a lot to do with their luck.
For the same disease, some might not get detected, which leads to the untimely discovery of the disease, further worsening it, and even causing death!
Seeing the "cable sign," the imaging doctor couldn't help but feel a bit of surprise; how many detours had this saved?
He immediately saved the film!
This was a typical case.
