Abstract Purpose To evaluate the feasibility of 2D-perfusion angiography (2D-PA) for the analysis of intra-procedural treatment response after intra-arterial prostaglandin E1 therapy in patients with non-occlusive mesenteric ischemia (NOMI). Methods Overall, 20 procedures in 18 NOMI patients were included in this retrospective case–control study....
Abstract Surgical flaps are commonly used for pelvic reconstruction in a subgroup of patients with locally advanced or recurrent anorectal and gynecologic malignancies and following complications of pelvic irradiation. Surgical scenarios where flaps may be placed include (but are not limited to) extended or radical abdominal perineal resection (APR) and total pelvic exenteration (PE). Surgical flaps in pelvic reconstruction serve several functions, including reducing dead space...
Abstract Purpose Extraprostatic extension (EPE) is an unfavorable prognostic factor and the grade of EPE is also shown to be correlated with the prognosis of prostate cancer. The current study assessed the value of prostate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in measuring the radial distance (RD) of EPE and the role of T2 WI signs in predicting the grade of EPE. Materials...
Abstract Purpose To determine the frequency, imaging, and clinical manifestations of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-related colitis in cancer patients on monotherapy or combination therapy. Methods The electronic medical records of 1044 cancer patients who received ICIs were retrospectively reviewed to identify 48 patients who had a clinical...
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) performed before and after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) in predicting risk of recurrence in rectal cancer and to investigate the prognostic significance of MR-detected extramural venous invasion (mr-EMVI) and of its regression after nCRT. Methods During 2005–2016,...
