Sex differences in ventricular arrhythmia: epidemiology, pathophysiology and catheter ablation [PDF]
Evidence on sex differences in the pathophysiology and interventional treatment of ventricular arrhythmia in ischemic (ICM) or non-ischemic cardiomyopathies (NICM) is limited.

Volumetric Quantitative Ablation Margins for Assessment of Ablation Completeness in Thermal Ablation of Liver Tumors [PDF]
BackgroundIn thermal ablation of liver tumors, complete coverage of the tumor volume by the ablation volume with a sufficient ablation margin is the most important factor for treatment success. Evaluation of ablation completeness is commonly performed by visual inspection in 2D and is prone to inter-reader variability.

O-23 HEPATITIS B VIRUS STATUS OF ORGAN DONORS IN ARGENTINA
Introduction and Objectives: Argentina is considered an area with a low prevalence of hepatitis B virus (HBV). However, the real prevalence of the disease is unknown. We aimed to study the prevalence of HBV in potential cadaveric donors.

Ablative therapies have recently emerged as an alternate to the gold-standard liver resection in treatment of malignant liver tumors. These modalities include radiofrequency ablation and microwave ablation which utilize thermocoagulative energy and microwave energy, respectively, to create a complete necrosis zone encircling the lesion. In this review,

O-12 CHARACTERIZATION AND UTILIZATION OF HCV-POSITIVE DONORS IN ARGENTINA
Introduction and Objectives: Increased utilization of hepatitis C virus (HCV)-positive organ donors has been endorsed as one of several ways to combat organ shortages. However, HCV-positive donors remain poorly characterized. This study aimed to evaluate

Ultrasound-guided ethanol ablation for cystic thyroid nodules: effectiveness of small amounts of ethanol in a single session [PDF]
Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of ethanol ablation (EA) in the treatment of cystic thyroid nodules using low-dose ethanol regardless of the initial volume of the nodule or properties of the aspirate.
