The purpose of this study was to describe the most reliable measurement procedure for acoustic radiation force impulse technology and define normal wave velocity values in a healthy liver.Twenty volunteers underwent imaging tissue quantification were enrolled prospective study. All patients examined by two independent operators at same time. Twenty-four measurements per subject obtained. Intraoperator interoperator evaluations performed. Statistical comparison all mean data performed with...
Ziel: VirtualTouch ist eine neue Ultraschalltechnik, mit der die Lebersteifigkeit im Rahmen B-Mode-Sonografie eingeschätzt werden kann. Ziel Studie war Analyse diagnostischen Genauigkeit von für Diagnose einer Leberzirrhose und dessen Korrelation transienter Elastografie (Fibroscan). Material Methoden: Insgesamt wurden 133 Patienten chronischer Lebererkrankung eingeschlossen. 90 / untersucht 70 den untersuchten erhielten Leberbiopsie. Die wurde beiden Methoden rechten Leberlappen untersucht....
Objective This study aimed to assess the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs). Methods We performed RFA on 10 patients (7 women) aged 38 75 years with histologically diagnosed PNETs (secreting in 3 cases) who could not or would undergo surgical resection. Tumor nodules (diameter, 0.9-2.9 cm; mean [SD], 1.6 [0.5] cm) were located head (n = 7) body 3) pancreas. Ultrasound-guided was percutaneously 7), endoscopically 1),...
The popularity of coaching as a development activity in organizations has outpaced the research. To inspire research and strengthen our intellectual foundation, Thought Leadership Institute International Coaching Federation invited 35 most recognized scholars 12 leaders to three two-hour discussions. Each session began with presenters briefly sharing observations about what we know need find out. sessions focused on: (1) desired outcomes coaching; (2) process mechanism (3) for people from...
Patients presenting with acute colonic obstruction are usually evaluated in the emergency department and multiple specialties involved patients’ management. Pre-treatment evaluation is essential order to establish correct endoscopic indication for stent implantation. Contrast-enhanced imaging could allow exclusion of benign causes length malignant stricture. Endoscopic stenting gold standard treatment palliative indications whereas there still concerns about its use as a bridge surgery....
OBJECTIVE. The objective of our study was to evaluate the MDCT features incidentally detected neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) pancreas, identify that can predict tumor biology or aggressiveness and long-term outcome, determine incidence "nonbenign" behavior.
Abstract Adenomyoma/adenomyomatosis (AM) of the gallbladder is generally considered an incidental and innocuous finding; however, neoplastic lesions, including intracholecystic neoplasms (ICNs), flat-type dysplasia, carcinomas, may arise within AM. AM-associated ICNs, composed mural cystically dilated glands containing florid papillary proliferations lined by mucinous and/or overtly dysplastic epithelium, are very rare poorly characterized. This study aimed at investigating...
Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks as the third most prevalent globally, with 25% of patients presenting metastases; these, 8% have synchronous liver and peritoneal metastases. Although concurrent presence metastases was previously considered an absolute contraindication, feasibility combined surgery is now being re-evaluated. This study assesses 41 who underwent for CRC at our center between October 2021 February 2024. Among these patients, 7 concomitant cytoreductive (CRS) hyperthermic...
