ABSTRACT Duodenal varices, though rare, are potentially life‐threatening complications of portal hypertension. Management is challenging when balloon‐occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration (BRTO) fails to achieve complete obliteration. Endoscopic ultrasonography‐guided variceal therapy (EUS‐VT) is effective for gastric varices, but reports of ...

ABSTRACT Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is widely used for early esophageal cancer, even in patients with liver cirrhosis (LC). Corticosteroids, administered orally or by local injection, are often used to prevent post‐ESD esophageal stricture. However, their safety in patients with decompensated LC and refractory ascites remains unclear. A man

ABSTRACT Percutaneous biopsy remains the gold standard for diagnosing focal liver lesions; however, endoscopic ultrasound‐guided tissue acquisition (EUS‐TA) has recently emerged as a promising alternative. Although its diagnostic performance is favorable, most available evidence has focused on epithelial tumors, and reports on mesenchymal tumors are ...

Validation of Intravoxel Incoherent Motion MRI Using Perfused Explanted Human Livers
ABSTRACT Purpose Evaluate the feasibility of using perfused explanted human livers for validating intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM). Methods Eight (n = 8) explanted livers from deceased donors were obtained. The portal vein and hepatic artery of each explanted liver were connected to a perfusion system.
