[Gastrointestinal involvement in Kaposi's sarcoma associated with AIDS. Radiologic findings]
Abstract:
Two cases are presented of Kaposi's sarcoma (SK) associated with AIDS and gastrointestinal affectation. The visceral extension of Kaposi's sarcoma has been related to a poorer prognosis, and in some cases, it is responsible for the appearance of symptoms, particularly gastrointestinal hemorrhage. The radiological patterns of presentation of the gastrointestinal lesions of Kaposi's sarcoma are described, this being the most frequent location of the disease after the skin and lymph nodes.

Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan
Radiological investigations are paramount in the diagnosis and management of various pulmonary diseases. Two essential investigations are the Pulmonary Angiogram and the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Scan.
Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...

Cryptococcal Meningitis
Cryptococcal meningitis is a life-threatening opportunistic infection predominantly associated with HIV/AIDS, accounting for over 100,000 deaths annually worldwide. However, it also affects individuals with other forms of immunosuppression, including those undergoing immunosuppressive therapy, organ transplant recipients, patients with innate immunodeficiencies, and individuals with hematological disorders. The infection is caused mainly by Cryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii,...
