Bidirectional crusher gradient method to estimate the labeling efficiency of pseudo‐continuous arterial spin labeling MRI in mice

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 95, Issue 2, Page 912-926, February 2026.
Abstract Purpose To develop an experimental method for measuring the labeling efficiency of pseudo‐continuous arterial spin labeling (pCASL) MRI in mice. Methods We propose a method using bidirectional crusher gradients to modulate vascular signals in the azygos pericallosal artery (azPA) of the mouse brain, applied with and without pCASL labeling.

Comparing open and minimally invasive surgical procedures for oesophagectomy in the treatment of cancer: the ROMIO (Randomised Oesophagectomy: Minimally Invasive or Open) feasibility study and pilot trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Localised oesophageal cancer can be curatively treated with surgery (oesophagectomy) but the procedure is complex with a risk of complications, negative effects on quality of life and a recovery period of 6-9 months. Minimal-access surgery may accelerate

Left upper lung cancer with persistent left superior vena cava and left azygos vein: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2020
Background With the popularization of thoracoscopic surgery, more and more macrovascular malformations have been reported. Understanding some vascular malformations with relatively fixed anatomical site and their range of drainage could avoid severe ...

Normothermic Regional Perfusion in Controlled Donation After Circulatory Death: Growing Evidence for Liver Transplantation

open access: yesClinical Transplantation, Volume 40, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) has emerged as a pivotal strategy in controlled donation after circulatory death (cDCD) liver transplantation, mitigating ischemia‐reperfusion injury and improving graft outcomes. Compared to super rapid recovery (SRR), NRP significantly reduces rates of early allograft dysfunction, primary nonfunction ...

Azygos Vein Aneurysm Mimicking Paratracheal Mass: Dynamic Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings

open access: yesBalkan Medical Journal, 2013
Aneurysms of the azygos vein are rare and can sometimes mimic a paratracheal or posterior mediastinal mass. It is important to confirm the diagnosis with radiologic tools before performing invasive procedures, which carry the risk of hemorrhage.

Enhancing Surgical Decision‐Making for Infected Cardiac Device Lead Removal With 18F‐FDG PET/CT: A Case Study and Literature Analysis

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Residual implantable cardiac electronic device (ICED) leads pose a significant infection risk, necessitating a multimodal diagnostic and therapeutic approach. This case highlights the critical role of PET/CT imaging in guiding surgical decision‐making, particularly in cases of chronic infections with embedded or fractured lead fragments. While
