Simultaneous Visualization of the Carotid and Subclavian Arteries Using Non–Contrast‐Enhanced MR Angiography With a 3D Fast Field Echo Sequence and Time‐Spatial Labeling Inversion Pulse: A Comparison With 3D Time‐of‐Flight MR Angiography

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Carotid artery stenosis is a major cause of stroke. Non‐contrast MR angiography (MRA) using time‐spatial labeling inversion pulse (Time‐SLIP) may offer potential advantages over 3D time‐of‐flight (TOF)‐MRA for simultaneous visualization of carotid, vertebral, and subclavian arteries, but remains uninvestigated.

Combining Detailed Fetal Anatomy Scanning in the NT Window Versus Early Second Trimester Scanning at 14–16 Weeks

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives First‐trimester ultrasound has evolved to incorporate a detailed fetal anatomy scan (FAS) with nuchal translucency (NT) screening. Many institutions use a 2‐visit protocol: NT followed by detailed FAS at 14–16 weeks. We aimed to evaluate whether integrating detailed FAS into the NT window (12 + 5 to 13 + 6 weeks) is non‐inferior in ...

Mechanical Treatment of Common Neuropathic Itch Syndromes: A Retrospective Observational Evaluation of Mckenzie Method for Brachioradial Pruritus and Notalgia Paresthetica

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
In case a mechanical disco‐radicular conflict is at the base of BRP or NP, a spine‐directed approach in line with the McKenzie method is found to alleviate symptoms. ABSTRACT Background Brachioradial pruritus (BRP) and notalgia paresthetica (NP) are neuropathic itch syndromes that are often challenging to treat, typically managed within a ...

Age is not a primary risk factor for ACL injury—A comprehensive review of ACL injury and reinjury risk factors confounded by young patient age

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Revision surgery after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACL‐R) is hypothesized to be the result of an interplay between factors associated with the anatomy, physiological characteristics and environment of the patient. The multifactorial nature of revision ACL‐R risk is difficult to quantify, and evidence regarding the independent ...
