The effects of normobaric and hyperbaric oxygenation on MRI signal intensities in T1 -weighted, T2 -weighted and FLAIR images in human brain. [PDF]
Dissolved oxygen has known paramagnetic effects in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The aim of this study was to compare the effects of normobaric oxygenation (NBO) and hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) on human brain MRI signal intensities.

Use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy to treat glans penis necrosis after prostatic artery embolization
We report a case of non-target embolization after PAE, which was treated with topical and systemic therapies including hyperbaric oxygenation. In this case, a 77-year-old man developed distal penile pain, hours after undergoing PAE.

HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE HYPERBARIC OXYGENATION [PDF]
Background: Hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) is a treatment in which a patient breathes near 100% oxygen within a chamber at a pressure greater than one atmosphere absolute (ATA).

Oxygen: A Stimulus, Not “Only” a Drug
Depending on the oxygen partial pressure in a tissue, the therapeutic effect of oxygenation can vary from simple substance substitution up to hyperbaric oxygenation when breathing hyperbaric oxygen at 2.5–3.0 ATA. Surprisingly, new data showed that it is

Hyperbaric oxygenation in transplantology
The ability to eliminate any form of oxygen debt by transporting oxygen to organs and tissues, by dissolving it in body fluids, brings hyperbaric oxygenation to a new level of application in transplantology.
