Emergent CT angiography and risk of contrast-induced acute kidney injury in acute ischaemic stroke

open access: yesAktualności Neurologiczne, 2016
Objectives: Emergent computed tomography angiography with contrast is commonly performed for acute ischaemic stroke, but potentially delayed pending admission renal function assessment due to purported risk of contrast-induced acute kidney injury.

Massive hemoptysis treated with embolization of an ectopic bronchial artery arising from the right thyrocervical trunk: a case report

open access: yesCVIR Endovascular, 2022
Background Ectopic bronchial artery and non-bronchial systemic arteries may be the culprit vessels of hemoptysis. The main cause of clinical failure of bronchial artery embolization is incomplete embolization caused by the misidentification of the ...

Role of noncontrast magnetic resonance pulmonary imaging in diagnosis of pulmonary embolism

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2022
Background Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a serious condition and has a clinical dilemma in diagnosis. Computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) is a gold standard in its diagnosis, but MRI has proven a good role in PE diagnosis.

Rationale and design of the Clinical Evaluation of Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Coronary heart disease 2 trial (CE-MARC 2): a prospective, multicenter, randomized trial of diagnostic strategies in suspected coronary heart disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: A number of investigative strategies exist for the diagnosis of coronary heart disease (CHD). Despite the widespread availability of noninvasive imaging, invasive angiography is commonly used early in the diagnostic pathway.

Single injection dual phase CBCT technique ameliorates results of trans-arterial chemoembolization for hepatocellular cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Cone-beam CT (CBCT) application to the field of trans-arterial chemoembolization has been recently the focus of several researches. This imaging modality is performed with a rotation of the C-arm around the patient, without needs of patient repositioning.
