Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography [PDF]
1. Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography should take its proper place in our armamentarium of diagnostic procedures. 2. If one adheres strictly to the indications and observes careful technic, the hazards are minimal and the information gained rewarding, as illustrated by a detailed report of 1 case. 3.

PERCUTANEOUS TRANSHEPATIC CHOLANGIOGRAPHY
The patient who presents with jaundice, regardless of the etiology, cannot be adequately examined by a gallbladder series and intravenous cholangiography. Clinical evaluation aided by laboratory analysis will not always differentiate between primary liver parenchymal disease and biliary tract obstruction. Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography, when

Full feature selection for estimating KAP radiation dose in coronary angiographies and percutaneous coronary interventions [PDF]
In interventional cardiology (IC) the radiation dose variation is very significant, and its estimation has been difficult due to the complexity of the treatments. In order to tackle this problem, the aim of this study was to identify the most important demographic and clinical features to estimate Kerma-Area Product (KAP) radiation dose in coronary ...

Aid to Percutaneous Renal Access by Virtual Projection of the Ultrasound Puncture Tract onto Fluoroscopic Images [PDF]
Background and Purpose: Percutaneous renal access in the context of percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is a difficult technique, requiring rapid and precise access to a particular calix. We present a computerized system designed to improve percutaneous renal access by projecting the ultrasound puncture tract onto fluoroscopic images.
