With the advent of effective systemic therapy, transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is established as a highly locoregional treatment modality for carefully selected patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This randomized controlled trial was conducted to clarify whether selective TACE drug-eluting beads (DEB-TACE) loaded epirubicin or conventional (cTACE) epirubicin-ethiodized oil might be more obtaining complete response(CR) in HCC.Between March 2016 and May 2019, Child-Pugh class...
OBJECTIVE. The objective of our study was to evaluate the diagnostic impact varying slice thickness on multidetector CT optimize detection hypervascular hepatocellular carcinoma.

We evaluated the optimal timing of arterial phase imaging for detection hypervascular hepatocellular carcinoma by using triple with multidetector-row helical computed tomography.Forty-nine patients 90 carcinomas (3 to 50 mm in diameter; mean, 18.7 mm) underwent whole liver a tomography. At 20 seconds, 30 and 40 seconds after intravenous administration 100 mL 300 mgI/mL nonionic contrast medium at rate 4 mL/s, early, middle, late images were obtained serially during single breath-hold an...
4518 Background: Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) with selective catheterization into the segmental or subsegmental hepatic arteries supplying HCC is often performed to achieve complete local control of in patients a limited number small sized nodules. To clarify which TACE drug-eluting beads loaded epirubicin (DEB-TACE) conventional epirubicin-lipiodol (cTACE) can response (CR) more frequently, we randomized controlled trial DEB-TACE vs. cTACE. Methods: Between March 2016 and May...
The purpose of this study was to separately measure the arterial and portal venous tissue blood flow (TBF) hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with a noninvasive method using xenon inhalation CT (xenon-CT) differentiate between well-differentiated HCCs moderately poorly differentiated HCCs.Total, TBFs 38 surgically proven HCC nodules from patients were measured by means xenon-CT. Serial abdominal scans obtained before after nonradioactive gas. TBF computed Fick principle, which correlation...
Purpose: We evaluated the optimal timing of arterial phase imaging for detection hypervascular hepatocellular carcinoma by using triple with multidetector-row helical computed tomography. Materials and Methods: Forty-nine patients 90 carcinomas (3 to 50 mm in diameter; mean, 18.7 mm) underwent whole liver a At 20 seconds, 30 40 seconds after intravenous administration 100 mL 300 mgI/mL nonionic contrast medium at rate 4 mL/s, early, middle, late images were obtained serially during single...
In a Beagle dog being used in another study, the right maxillary second incisor was found to be much wider than contralateral tooth. This tooth examined morphologically and radiographically. The had prominet vertical groove each on labial lingual surface with notch at incisal edge. appearance of incompletely separated crowns single root strongly suggested that two teeth were fused together. A radiograph revealed these common root, canal that. Furthermore, this case considered have resulted...
A comparative anatomical study was made of the upper and lower teeth mandibula with use 35 skulls Japanese fox captured in Kyushu. The results were as follows : 1. As characteristics tooth size carnivorous animals, canine large strong carnassial well developed. Among incisor teeth, I_3 largest followed by I_2 I_1. to molars, further away from it anteriorly, posteriorly successively smaller. 2. mesial distal tubercles located on lingual surface less developed than those dog family but...
