[Magnetic resonance and TMJ. An elective diagnostic method].

The Authors consider magnetic resonance (MR) imaging with surface coils in the diagnosis of normal and abnormal temporomandibular joint. After describing technical data, the Authors discuss advantages and limitations of MR. The noninvasive and nonionizing characteristics of MR; the possibility to visualize at the same time soft and hard tissues of TMJ induce the Authors to maintain the validity of the technique and the potentiality for the future.

[Hospital epidemic of Clostridium difficile diarrhea: demonstration of cross-infection using a typing technic].

Two hospital outbreaks of Clostridium difficile diarrhoea in two general surgery units of different hospitals are described. Moreover, the results of a study on the circulation of C. difficile in a neurosurgery unit following two cases of colitis are reported. C. difficile strains isolated from patients and environment have been typed using antimicrobial susceptibility testing and electrophoretic profiles of EDTA-extracted proteins. The majority of strains isolated in each hospital shared the same protein profile and the same pattern of antibiotic susceptibility. This provides strong evidence of cross-infection and hospital acquisition of C. difficile.
