<h3>BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:</h3> Combination radiofrequency ablation and vertebral augmentation is an emerging minimally invasive therapy for patients with metastatic spine disease who have not responded to or contraindications radiation therapy. The purpose of this study was evaluate the rate radiographic local control spinal metastases treated combination augmentation. <h3>MATERIALS METHODS:</h3> We retrospectively reviewed our tumor database all underwent between April 2012 July 2014....
<h3>BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:</h3> Percutaneous radiofrequency ablation combined with vertebral augmentation has emerged as a minimally invasive treatment for patients metastases who do not respond to or have contraindications radiation therapy. The prevalence of posterior body presents access and challenges in the unique anatomy spine. purpose this study was evaluate safety efficacy simultaneous bipedicular using articulating bipolar electrodes local tumor control spinal metastases....

Vertebral Hounsfield unit (HU) were regarded as a new way to predict fragility fracture. However, HU values measured in single plane, which is not accurate for the entire vertebral body. This study aimed create CT-based metric assessing bone mineral density, three-dimensional value (3D-HU), and evaluate its effect independently predicting fracture (NVF) after percutaneous augmentation (PVA) postmenopausal women. reviewed female patients with osteoporotic compression (OVCF) who treated at our...
In 12 patients (aged 64 +/- 10 years) with femoropopliteal occlusions (1-27 cm; average, 8.4 cm length) that could not be recanalized by standard guidewire-balloon angioplasty techniques, percutaneous laser-assisted balloon was performed use of a new fluorescence-guided dual-laser system. Plaque detection 325-nm laser-excited fluorescence spectroscopy provided real-time feedback control to 480-nm pulsed dye laser (2-microseconds pulses) for atheroma ablation. By means common 200-microns...
Papilloedema is a key clinical finding in the diagnosis of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). However, newly proposed criteria allow without papilloedema only if certain neuroimaging features are present. It currently unclear these findings persist upon resolution and IIH. A retrospective chart review identified three groups patients (six per group) who had received orbital imaging within 4 weeks fundoscopic examination: (1) IIH active papilloedema, (2) with (3) no history or...
Stereotactic radiosurgery and percutaneous radiofrequency ablation are emerging therapies for pain palliation local control of spinal metastases. However, the post-treatment imaging findings not well characterized risk long-term complications is unknown. We present case a 46-year-old woman with delayed vertebral body collapse after stereotactic painful lumbar metastasis. Histopathologic-MRI correlation confirmed osteonecrosis as underlying etiology demonstrated that treatment-induced...
Radiofrequency ablation is a valuable therapy for palliation of painful spinal metastases and local tumor control; however, accessing the vertebral body can be difficult time consuming with traditional manual needles. Herein, we report our initial experience using drill-assisted, fluoroscopy-guided technique radiofrequency ablation.
Postoperative aortic graft anastomotic stenoses at nine sites in eight patients were successfully treated with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty. There was a decrease peak systolic pressure gradient all patients, and seven of the symptoms claudication disappeared immediately after Four remained asymptomatic follow-up. Ankle/arm indices obtained before angioplasty five postangioplasty improvement five.
To compare the overall survival (OS) and liver cancer-specific of advanced-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients who received transarterial radioembolization (TARE) with those nonoperative/interventional treatment (NOT).A total 12,520 HCC from Surveillance, Epidemiology End Results database were categorized by either or NOT. Kaplan-Meier multivariate Cox regression conducted.The TARE group had both a significantly longer median than NOT (TARE = 9 months; 2 p < 0.0001) higher...
The OnControl coaxial biopsy system (Vidacare Corporation, Shavano Park, TX) includes an inner diamond-tipped access needle and hollow that engage with a battery-powered hand drill. Herein, we report the use of this novel device to perform two CT-guided percutaneous skull biopsies. Both procedures were performed without complication facilitated pathologic diagnosis.

In pediatric patients, the pelvic and abdominal contents of hernias canal Nuck have increased risk strangulation. Early diagnosis these with ultrasonography is important. We report a case hernia presented as left inguinal mass containing ipsilateral ovary in 26-day-old premature infant girl. 
Soft tissue calcifications are a common imaging finding, but in the setting of cosmetic augmentative injection and hypercalcemia, it may be pathognomonic for lipogranuloma, delayed granulomatous inflammatory reaction to injected foreign material. Although diagnosis lipogranuloma is based on results histopathologic examination, radiologist play key role clinical evaluation challenging cases when patients do not report about nonmedical procedures. If treatment granulomatosis-induced...
