Compressed Sensing‐Accelerated Free‐Breathing Liver MRI at 7 T

open access: yesNMR in Biomedicine, Volume 38, Issue 6, June 2025.
In this study, compressed‐sensing acceleration, respiratory binning and eight‐channel phase shimming were combined to enable free‐breathing liver MRI at 7 Tesla. Three‐dimensional gradient‐echo liver images with 1.35 mm isotropic resolution could be acquired in 3.5 min without B1+ inhomogeneity effects, allowing detailed anatomical depiction without ...

Establishing a Normothermic Machine Perfusion Program for Liver Transplantation: Lessons Learned and Early Outcomes in the United States

open access: yesClinical Transplantation, Volume 39, Issue 5, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) has emerged as a promising technology in liver transplantation, but limited data exist regarding real‐world implementation in the United States following FDA approval. We report our experience establishing an NMP program and share insights from our first 100 cases.

Gallbladder and Small Intestinal Luminal Opacification by Vicarious Contrast Medium Excretion Can be Observed on Delayed Computed Tomography in Healthy Dogs

open access: yesVeterinary Radiology &Ultrasound, Volume 66, Issue 3, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Vicarious excretion is a nonrenal pathway of excretion for intravenously injected iodinated contrast media, with a limited understanding of its influencing factors and imaging features. In this prospective pilot study, gallbladder opacification (GBO) and small intestinal luminal opacification (SILO) were assessed to identify vicarious ...
