Recent Advances in Functional Liver Volumetry: Emphasis on 99mTc‐GSA SPECT/CT Fusion Imaging
Functional liver volumetry enables more accurate assessment of the future liver remnant by integrating anatomical and functional information, improving risk stratification before major hepatectomy. Among available techniques, 99mTc‐GSA SPECT/CT fusion imaging enables precise regional functional assessment and more reliable prediction of post ...

Angiographic scoring of vascular occlusive disease in the diabetic foot: Relevance to bypass graft patency and limb salvage [PDF]
We graded the severity of occlusive disease in foot vessels of patients with diabetes and correlated the scoring obtained with graft patency and limb salvage.In this retrospective review of 199 limbs studied by means of angiography in 117 patients with diabetes mellitus, 124 limbs underwent bypass grafting. Each dorsalis pedis (DP), lateral plantar (LP)

Abstract Background Ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) allows the evaluation of lungs that do not meet standard transplantation criteria. Current procedures do not permit the identification of regional functional deficits. We investigated the feasibility of assessing lobar gas exchange during EVLP in a swine model.
