RF‐Shielding of Laser‐Cut Venous Stents: Calculations, Simulations, and Experiments
ABSTRACT Purpose To develop an analytical model of the RF‐shielding of laser‐cut venous stents for different orientations and stent geometries. Methods Laser‐cut venous stents are modeled as a grid composed of circular and rectangular loops. As these loops are orthogonal they shield different components of the transmit RF field.

ABSTRACT Life‐threatening hemoptysis is most commonly caused by hypertrophied bronchial arteries, but non‐bronchial systemic arteries (NBSA) such as the left internal mammary artery (LIMA) may also contribute, particularly in chronic infectious lung diseases. Embolization of LIMA branches poses technical challenges due to their tortuosity and proximity

Materials Employed in Preoperative Embolization for Nasopharyngeal Angiofibroma: A Meta‐Analysis
Studies have shown that pre‐surgical embolization improves outcomes for JNA, but the choice of embolization material remains a topic of debate. This study found PVA is the most used material, and that there may be differences in outcomes and complications between embolization materials.
