Currently, there is no consensus in the literature regarding screening of hepatic nodules patients who have undergone Fontan procedure. The objectives this study are to evaluate population frequency at ultrasound (US), CT, and MRI; measure liver stiffness using acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) elastography; investigate predictive factors for nodules.In cross-sectional study, 49 underwent procedure were prospectively recruited from August 2014 through June 2016. These clinical...
The treatment planning for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) relies predominantly on tumor burden, clinical performance, and liver function test results. Curative treatments such as resection, transplantation, ablative therapies of small lesions should be considered all HCC. However, many are ineligible these owing to advanced disease stage comorbidities. Despite efforts increase screening, early-stage HCC remains difficult diagnose, which decreases the possibility curative...
To describe expected imaging features on chest computed tomography (CT) after percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of lung tumors, and their frequency over time the procedure.In this double-center retrospective study, we reviewed CT scans from patients who underwent RFA for primary or secondary tumors. Patients with partial tumor recurrence during follow-up were not included. The assessed in pre-defined points: immediate post-procedure, ≤4 weeks, 5-24 25-52 weeks ≥52 weeks. Late (3 5...
To investigate whether quantitative textural features, extracted from pretreatment MRI, can predict sustained complete response to radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).In this IRB-approved study, were selected a maintained six-year database of consecutive who underwent both MRI imaging probable or definitive diagnosis HCC (LI-RADS 4 5) and loco-regional treatment RFA. An experienced radiologist manually segmented the hepatic nodules arterial...
Highlights Understanding how diagnostic radiology is taught in Brazilian medical schools. The students' perception on their training and its importance. Which methods are used to teach, both pre-clinical clinical years. ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed assess exposure during school, from the perspective of students Brazil. Methods In this multicenter approved by Institutional Review Board, multiple universities Brazil filled out an online questionnaire [...]

Abstract Background: Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a safe and effective minimally invasive treatment for primary or secondary malignancies of the lung. This study aims to describe imaging features on chest computed tomography (CT) after RFA lung tumors, their frequency over time procedure. Methods : In this double-center retrospective study, we reviewed 69 patients with tumors who underwent percutaneous RFA. Patients were excluded if they had received concomitant radiation therapy...
